Ken Follet's The Pillars of the Earth is one of the best episodic adventure games. Also it the best book to game conversion I've experienced. It's full of murder, revenge, redemption, backstabbing, and misfortune. It ends brilliantly setting up the episode to come. Can't wait for the second one.

Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun made my eyes tear. Playing the game I started to reminisce about the old days. The game is really similar to Commandos series, featuring a distinct and flavourful heroes. Crippled sniper, a child-thief, shinobi, samurai. They all make a ragtag team of personalities who have the same goal, but every single person has a different motivation - loyalty, wealth, fun. Put it simply, it's a perfect strategic game focusing on a single person-scale operations.

Demetrios is a hilarious but simple point & click adventure game. It's not the best in any aspect, but it's good enough to give you a cheap laugh and keep interested and smiling for a whole game.

Jump, Step, Step is a terrible game that may as well be a first programming tutorial a child might ever experience. It uses programming statements to move our hero from beginning to the end, but there is no way for deviating from developer-created path. It's uncreative and buggy.

Ark: Survival Evolved is not a reliable game. It crashes more often than you are able to save your progress. It provides a vast area for gameplay, but most of it is not accessible unless you are a god-like. It can be used a creative tool for your mind, but you need to endure tediousness of the grind. It's like Minecraft, but less fun in single player, more deadly and without as much content.

Killing Floor is still a crude game. It's not as refined as it should be. It still retains frustrating gameplay, overwhelming hordes and a big load of weapons sorted into specialisations. It's a great game if we have a team to play with. Playing solo or with random players from the internet is a chore, not a pleasure.

Path of Exile is a great RPG. It's basically free to play Diablo, but unfortunately it struggles when it comes to interface and lag. Always online restriction every so often causes the game to stutter. Otherwise it a showcase of perfectly implemented action RPG mechanics, but for free.

N++ is a sadistic game. It doesn't forgive mistakes and requires precise moves. It's a great game for overachievers and people who love to be at the top of the leaderboard.

Faral Fury is a nice top-down shooter with randomly generated levels. The difficulty varies too much and you might have either a great first experience or just give up after your first run.

Maize is quite a funny puzzle game. It tells a story of rebellion and highly advanced experiments. A story of governments and its mistakes. Corn and teddies. It's absurd, but what is weird, it makes sense in the end.

SEUM is a great speedrunner. It's not as overwhelming as DeadCore, but also not as stunning. It's a leaderboard climbing in it's purest form. You need to find the best way to the end portal, while collecting all pickups and maybe even not dying once.

The game is badly made and is too dark to be enjoyed. Yet, it's a great exercise in parallel thinking and chaining actions together. Completing the game without a guide is a feat.

X-Morph: Defense is a brilliant tower defence game. This time we are the invaders and need to defend our invasion. We can fight all over the world, in nice locations, but it's not as simple TD as most. We need to balance power supply, fight against fighters and dynamically change paths to be able to survive. Even the first level is tough. And that's good.

The Inner World: The Last Windmonk is a continuation of a story of slightly infantile hero. Unfortunately it's not a standalone game and it needs to be played after the first game to understand what's going on. And there's a lot going on. Betrayal, power hunger, loyalty, complex multi-level upside down puzzles. Everything is here.

Tokyo 42 represents a genre of simple action-packed games. While it wildly differs from likes of Hotline Miami, it gives similar experience. It features great shootouts, simple logic and spatial puzzles, but most often combines most of them making shootouts puzzles themselves. It's cool open world game. It will overload your brain with futuristic Japanese style and death, mostly death.

Dreambreak made me loose even more appreciation for pixelated games. It's quite interesting story of Mr. Nobody in deep troubles he had little to do with, but the execution is poor, controls are bad, and it leaves a lot to be desired. It was a simple Gamerscore though...

This detective story is a branching narrative that makes you scratch your head over and over again. For the most part you are not aware what's actually going on, mostly at the beginning, but then the games open us up, everything is explained and you see the credits roll. I don't expect second episode to be released for consoles.

Slayaway Camp is a nice and simplistic bloody mess. It parodies the most known mass murders from films like Friday the 13th and makes us replay themed murders. It's a nice training in causation similar to Hitman or Lara Croft Go. Simply fun.

Guardians of the Galaxy from Telltale lets us discover origin story of all the characters in the MCU. It's quite important this time as Guardians are quite obscure characters. Beyond obvious importance it's simply the great game from Telltale, the best since The Wolf Among Us even though it's riddled with immersion breaking mini games and sequences.

Mr. Shifty is quite an interesting experience. The whole game revolves around Mr. Shifty's ability to short distance teleport. When the job goes bad, the only thing that we can do is to retaliate. You will be going up and down your jailor's tower and decimate his defences. The game provides fast gameplay and an unique ability to flawlessly traverse most levels without stopping. Think before you teleport and you might just make it.
