Very cute and laid back game, exploring the world as a cat was a lovely treat. At times the gameplay was a bit repetitive, finding some of the collectibles was a bit of a hassle and the story is very short, but it's still a great experience thanks to the story and great level design.

Supergiant has done it again: another masterpiece that's both visually stunning, has an amazing soundtrack and innovative gameplay. Hades quickly became my favorite Rogue-lite/like, even after spending 900 hours in The Binding of Isaac!!

Every run feels different and the stakes only get higher if you're up to the challenge. The story is rich with references to Greek mythology, with the added twist here and there. Definitely one of my favorite games of all time!

Don't let the "free to play" tag fool you, this game has pay to win characters that are much more OP than the ones you can actually play for free.
Micro transactions in an early Access Game shouldn't be a thing, especially considering the developers use all assets from a pre-existing game: Black Desert Online. There's nothing new in this besides the death ring.
The community is toxic as hell and the devs will ban you for "teaming", even tho you just got placed in the same match with your friends because this game is dead. They will literally add bots to fill the matches and make some players happy they finally got to kill something besides basic mobs.
Just don't waste your time in this washed up excuse of a game.

Hob is one of the most visually stunning platforming games I've ever played, hitting the player with very bright colors and a simple, yet captivating, art style. It's a great mix of puzzle-solving, platforming and combat, having just enough of each category.

Pros:
- Amazing visuals
- Simple and responsive controls/moves
- Rewarding exploration
- Balanced experience for casual and seasoned players

Cons:
- Doesn't have much of a story, what is shown is rather simple
- Water level always suck
- Little to no enemy variation

One of the most beautiful games I have ever seen. The art is breath taking and the soundtrack is brilliant.

Despite being such a short adventure, it definitely delivers an amazing experience and offers some cool mechanics to solve clever platforming puzzles.

Score: 9/10

Considering this is an AAA game, I expected much more from it than what I got. The story seems rushed and honestly, I would've preferred to see a darker side of Lara than what we get from this. The graphics seem like a downgrade from the last game and I have no idea why they made Lara less realistic. Gameplay is still fun, however a lot of the random encounters you had with baddies on the previous games are not present in this one, which makes the replayability value so much lower. It's still a game you should give a try, but I honeslty recommend you wait for a bigger price drop.

This game is just so compelling that I had to finish it in a single sitting (a rather short game 3-4 hours long).
I got quickly attached to the main character and putting myself on his shoes made me feel completely immersed in his vulnerability against the hardships of a mysterious and possibly evil corporation.
It's incredible what the developers managed to do with graphics that look beautiful yet don't require a powerful machine to run them smoothly. The desaturated tones give the world an eerie atmosphere that reminded me of Portal 2's lonely and abandoned Aperture facilities.
The puzzles aren't incredibly hard if you pay enough attention to the subtle cues in the areas and even if you fail, the game brings you back to the most recent save (they did a really great job with that).
I highly recommend this game. If you liked Limbo you'll love this one even more.

Pros:
- Pretty visuals and art design

Cons:
- Clunky controls
- Lame "puzzles"
- Poor platforming
- Weird/unclear mechanics
- Super short frustrating game

I cried. 10/10

This is a game that takes me back to when games were incredibly hard. Everything is a one hit kill and sometimes you have to redo things all over in some maps. It can get frustrating, but when you get to conquer that area it's worth it. That's the feeling you got when you played classic games.
The story is told through the many scrolls scattered in the maps (collectibles that sometimes seem impossible to get, but you can do it with a little patience), scribbles on the walls, childish plays and paintings. It's a game that focuses a lot more on gameplay than anything else.
All of the powers you get have to be used at some point and are necessary to fight bosses (that are really hard to beat) and get collectibles, so there is some backtracking to be done at times.
I only recommend this game for people with patience, otherwise you'll probably give up on the first boss battle.
