Really great game made by indie devs. Exploring Ancient Egyptian landscapes is so cool. As well as banishing Egyptian inspired mejai (ghosts). Worth buying and playing for solo play or co-op.

TLDR: Slow Combat Hinders PVP! PVE Mode Needed

Now don't misunderstand me, I enjoy the game but the slow combat truly hinders the PVP experience. I also wish for a PVE mode as the PVE in the game does require skill and knowledge and it is an entertaining experience for me at least. I will quickly go over the pros and cons of the game.


Pros

+Class Design is Cool

The class design of druid is actually quite cool as there are many tricks a druid can do to traverse the dungeon and engage in combat. An example is a druid shapeshifting into rat to jump through closed doors with a small window (hopefully this is intended gameplay as it adds a cool trick and adds to the depth of the class).

+PVE is Entertaining

PVE is pretty cool and difficult which is why I wish for a strict PVE mode for a new Dark and Darker community to grow and support the game.


Cons

-Slow Combat

The combat in the game is very slow as almost every piece of equipment detracts the player's movement speed. (It's like watching a bunch of sloths roleplaying as fantasy characters with how slow everyone is)

-PVE Content is Difficult

The hardy monsters and unforgiving traps will likely be the player's main enemy as other players merely act as griefers as there is often nothing left to showcase PVP skill.

-Loss of Equipment Upon Death Prevents Gear Progression

This game design rears its flaws as it reinforces a risk averse playstyle in players. In the end, the game has no sense of gear progression.


Overall the game has some interesting parts due to its good class design and PVE content but its slow combat hinders the PVP experience. The game is F2P and is worth a try but keep in mind the game's shortcomings as it can outweigh the pros of the game if you let it bother you.

Edited to be concise.

Fun & Easy Steam Achievements

The Bronzebeard's Tavern game is worth a try for some fun with friends and easy Steam achievements. Here is a list of pros and cons for the game:

Pros
  • Fun Gameplay
    The game is fun, the recipe cooking and serving is quite enjoyable but can get overwhelming due to sheer volume of orders.
  • Free!
    The game is fun and free! Can't really complain about free games.

Cons
  • Glitchy
    Game is glitchy as there are many bugs and intuitive issues with the inventory system.
  • Balancing Issues
    The game throws a bunch of customers at the player and there isn't enough time to complete orders--so there is no sense of completion but rather serve as many as you can until the timer runs out. The Game also expects 4 players so any less will get overwhelmed by the sheer amount of orders.

Overall, Bronzebeard Tavern is free & fun to play with friends. In addition, the game is rather easy to get Steam achievements for Achievement hunters. I recommend the game as it is free but expect some glitchiness and balancing issues, (its a student game so it is to be expected but it is still good).

Palworld is amazing!

I recommend Palworld and here is a list of pros and cons.

Pros
  • Each pal is useful
    Unlike other competitors, Palworld's game design extends the usefulness of each pal with their breeding combos, passives, work suitability, and catch exp bonus.
  • Pal designs are cool
    Again unlike other competitors, Palworld has really cool designs. My favorite is Blazehowl, a winged lion that breathes fire is truly awesome!
  • Pal management is fun
    I love the attention to detail in the game. Pals have unique animations when they work that are sometimes adorable and funny. You can breed for S tier workers which can make base management a thriving economy. You can also breed for S tier fighters and S tier catchers with the new mercy passive. There is a chance to get alpha pals from breeding as well which makes proper pal management through the breeding ranch a must. The game gets easier and the game gets more fun with the more you invest in your pals, how a monster catching game ought to be.

Cons
  • Game is glitchy
    Palworld definitely has a lot of glitchiness but I can overlook this con because the game is fun to play.

Palworld is just awesome with its cool pal designs and game mechanics that rewards pal investment. I just wish there is more to do with the Pals like a Best in Show event, or some other PVE contest. Would also like to see more lion, and tiger pal designs. I definitely recommend Palworld as it is affordable and just overall fun.

I do not recommend the game in its current state and at its current price. Its competitors are cheaper and offer a better quality gaming experience.

Here is a few points why I do not recommend the game
-Repeated animation loops
You get the same animation loops in the same place and it is triggered at a set time.

-Can't identify the ghost due to lack of evidence
Some maps and some rooms do not give certain evidence. Dedicated players publish videos and guides telling that due to lack of evidence you will be wrong and to just complete the task for exp. Furthermore most if not all dedicated players estimate the wrong ghost type because of no evidence and because the ghosts have no discernible behaviour like Phasmophobia, you get the same animation loops for all ghosts.

-Poor optimisation
Game crashes, game stutters, and in-game mechanics do not work properly.

-Overpriced asset game
Basically an asset game but has developers with some talent. Would be better if the price of the game was significantly cheaper like its competitors whom have more content, replayability, and functionality.

In its current state, I do not recommend Demonologist.

Stay away from this game. It is another asset cash grab with poor coding and no content. Developers abandoned the game too so there is no hope for the game. The positive reviews are most likely paid for as the game has none of what they falsely praise it for. I strongly do not recommend Wild Wolf.

The game has a lot of cons and at the end of the day is an asset cash grab.

Here is a list of cons:
-Poorly designed asset models (like ugly sonic level of terribleness)
-Poor coding (right away you are met with a title screen with glitching lions)
-Poor optimisation
-Terrible UI design (looks like it was made in MS paint and one icon looks like a floppy d***)
-Micro-transactions
-Overpriced
-No content (no AI, no quests, no anything to do besides chat)
-Tiny toxic community (the nice folk left the game but the unhinged people stayed)

And there is no pros to the game. I do not recommend Animalia as it is an overpriced asset cash grab. Wild Savannah on ROBLOX is a free alternative of higher quality.

Phasmophobia is a great game about ghost hunting. The updates make the game better--there are now more ghosts to find and more items for ghost hunting. The game is fun to play with friends. The game is also fun to play solo for a challenge. I definitely recommend the game as it is tons of fun.

I really enjoy Skylines, I think the game is a great city simulation. Learning to make a functional city and maintaining a city is fun. The aesthetic of complete, full cities is very rewarding. The little animations for the civilians make following them interesting, I like that you can name them too. Overall, I think Cities: Skylines has game-play that is well-polished, addictive, and entertaining.

This game honestly made me fall in love with the Resident Evil series again. The game is full of interesting puzzles, thrilling scenarios, and a story that is one of a kind. Leon upholds the true spirit of the Resident Evil franchise through his heroic actions and iron will to piece together the puzzle by finding who is responsible for unleashing this hellish apocalypse on Raccoon City.

The game is made to be played again and again and the community even offers weekly challenges to encourage players to revisit the fictional world called Resident Evil. The price is steep yet it was totally worth the satisfying experience. I still enjoy the speed-running and challenging aspects of the game. As a result, I got my money's worth due to the game's high entertainment value and replay value.

The game currently has mods for a more classic Resident Evil experience if the "over-the-shoulder camera angle" isn't your cup of tea. I think Resident Evil 4 was the creator of the "over-the-shoulder camera angle" though. I think there is a video somewhere in which a developer on RE4 told how he thought about changing the camera angle and how revolutionary such a simple change was in terms of creating a new atmosphere in gaming. So in turn, I think the "over-the-shoulder camera angle" is true to its Resident Evil roots.

Resident Evil 2 is a callback to the good ol' days without sacrificing the ingenious tools of modern technology. I will gladly recommend Resident Evil 2 to all Resident Evil fans and horror fans as this is a game worthy of a spot in gaming history.
