A creepy atmospheric game that fits right in with the time period in history I'm currently studying. I've always loved escape room games, and I loved the first-person POV, great graphics, and realism of this one except for two things:

1. You aren't free to move around, just turn, and in dark rooms it's really easy to miss a clue.
   
2. There's no hints to what you might need in the first place, and the items are either really small or hard to find, so I was basically reduced to clicking all over the screen right off the bat. Cue the excessive, accidental switching between scenes when I hit a corner that I didn't know was meant for that purpose.

Unfortunately, this does take away from the game, despite the mystery/escape element and the dark atmosphere.

Final Edit (spoilers below):

Finished the game with the help of a walkthrough, which obviously isn't the most ideal way to play. But with the tedious point-and-click out of the way, I really enjoyed unraveling the mystery behind what happened in the bunker where MC was trapped. Some of the rooms were creepier than others, which tingled my horror-lover nerves, and the experience of reading the old documents on the facility's experiments was quite interesting (full disclosure, I'm a sucker for old papers and books).

However, the ending was just a tad anticlimactic. I was hoping to learn Chernogoryev had escaped, and MC's life history after his own escape was very ordinary. It would've been nice if he had gone on to infiltrate and investigate other research operations, or if anyone else with special abilities had turned up elsewhere. If nothing else, I would've liked a plot twist after hearing about MC's future: that he was actually dead in the present day and communicating from beyond the grave, with the same mechanism used in the research facility, and that we had actually gone through some of his memories that he chose to share.

Beautiful, relaxing little game! I absolutely love the floating island concept with sea animals swimming through air, and the manta ray is the cutest. The landscape reminds me a bit of Genshin Impact's Sangonomiya Shrine, except without all the extra-OP monsters and grinding. Being able to just run or fly across the islands and appreciate their peaceful scenery is everything. I do wish the flying controls were a little less clunky, though - flying 0.0001 mm off to the side of a gem and still not being able to collect it was slightly frustrating, lol.

Played this after watching The Witcher and I'm so glad to see they were faithful to the character portrayals. As always, I was drawn to the insane graphics and getting to explore everything like in an open-world game (until I inevitably stumbled across some high-level enemies and got slain - which is more of a me problem than anything). My only complaint with the mechanics is that Geralt can't jump very high and takes fall damage very easily, which I wouldn't expect from a guy who isn't entirely human lol. And maintaining my equipment and saving up money was another difficulty for me, possibly because I didn't do enough side quests. However, the combat's pretty realistic with cool effects when he uses his abilities, and sometimes the creatures you run into are truly scary to look at, which makes the experience unforgettable. Another well done game by CD!

One of my faves from the cute-to-horror type of anime game. I was at first put off by the slight harem concept (which I should have expected) but the story broke the 4th wall in such an unexpected way that I had to see it through to the end. Of course, as the warning might indicate, there's some very disturbing and depressing elements to the story, but that was what made it unforgettable as well. Totally didn't watch the PewDiePie and Markiplier playthroughs 10x each either.

Cutest little study aid ever - I love the minimalist graphics and color scheme as well as the option to add ambient noise. I do wish there was a bigger selection of songs and that you could rotate the little room! Not a deal-breaker for me though, will definitely be using this again.

Took me a good second to get the hang of all the different functions and menus, especially since the UI favors smaller text. But once I got through that bit I was totally addicted. Space empire management was never something I expected to like in a game but I love all the little details of it - exploring new star systems, keeping your homeworld/colony happiness high, building/designing ships and especially diplomatic relations. Also, the graphics are top-notch and the different map views are super cool. I'm not sure if I'll ever wage war in this game since I like having a little corner of the universe to myself, but it's definitely a keeper!

Edit: One slaughterfest by hungry extradimensional aliens later, I take back what I said about not waging war! Oddly enough, in other games where this would probably annoy me enough that I'd quit cold turkey, I'm still thinking of starting over and building up stronger. Without running the game at 5x speed of course.

Super cute farming game with the kind of retro graphics that make my heart sing. I could spend hours just fishing, collecting crops and other items and just accumulating as much money as possible, but I felt a little rushed when the "months" ticked by and frankly, I sucked at the dungeon part lol. With that and after getting most of the low-rarity items I began to lose interest in the game, but that's likely a me problem since I'm an impatient and somewhat lazy gamer. I've still got a lot of nostalgia for this premise though so I should be coming back to it sometime soon.

Engaging and comprehensive open-world game, beautifully realistic characters with lots of customization, great fighting mechanics with cool special effects, and nearly endless opportunities for side-quests along with a fairly good main story. My only complaint is the resolution - I could never get it quite right even after multiple attempts. Either the text would be absurdly small, even for someone with glasses, or the menus would crowd the screen when I tried to make the text large enough to be legible. I still have fond memories of this game though, and will probably come back to it when I'm ready to start squinting at my screen again.

Graphics are delightful, story isn't bad, but would only recommend if you have enough time to grind endlessly and risk getting swarmed and killed in certain areas. Granted, I'm far from the greatest RPG player of all time, but I just couldn't warm up to the mechanics. Just felt like endless repetitive hack and slash, which isn't my favorite way to pass the time after long work days.

After seeing ads for this game everywhere (including positive 'reviews' by actual cats!!!) I couldn't resist giving it a try. And I was not disappointed in the slightest. The mechanics are great for all skill levels, the graphics are top-notch, and the storyline is purrfection. (Yes, I had to.)

Not only did this game unlock a hidden desire to live life as a well-loved feline, but I never thought I'd find myself so fond of these robots. I loved their little face-screens with different expressions and all the personalities I encountered. I've yet to meet any of the actual humans - if they still exist - but the robots are precious cinnamon rolls and must be protected at all costs.

15/10 would play again after I finish this!

P.S.: Although it's probably not feasible, I really hope the devs make an open world version of this, where the cat has more options to jump! Can't get enough of the dystopian setting and the little signs of humanity that turn up when you explore.
