Daniel Waite's Reviews
Beyond the Ice Palace 2 is a gritty and tough action platformer. If you can cope with the brutality, you will enjoy the gothic setting and the captivating lore. It is cruel and unfair, but the action is oddly rewarding.
Bao Bao's Cozy Laundromat is relaxing, simple, and pleasant to look at. However, the lack of input and the simplicity may put some people off this idle business experience.
Care Bears: To The Rescue is a safe, colourful, and fun family-friendly game. Moreover, the simple approach makes it the perfect game for inexperienced players. Though the action is rudimentary, young children will adore the colourful world and the lack of violence.
Police Shootout is a fun but simple cop adventure experience. Though it lacks polish and it is slightly buggy, I enjoyed it nonetheless. Accordingly, if you want to kick ass and arrest some bad guys, this is the game for you.
Amanda the Adventurer is a sinister and uncomfortable horror experience. This title should have been adorable! However, a creepy protagonist and a shy sheep help to create a bleak game.
The Casting of Frank Stone is a dark and twisted horror title that will thrill you. The graphics are fantastic and the audio is chilling. Furthermore, the protagonists add a layer of spice to this brilliant cinematic twist. If you like the freedom to explore, this game may annoy you. The cinematic and linear-focused areas keep you on track. However, the branching storylines and plot twists expand the action repeatedly.
Lunacy: Saint Rhodes is a strange horror experience. This supernatural title is tense and will make your heart race. However the strange plot may not be everyone's cup of tea. I liked the setting and eerie creatures. Yet, the lack of clear guidance was frustrating.
A Game About Digging a Hole is a minimalist experience that will not blow you away. However, it is enjoyable in small doses. I liked the straightforward action and the freedom to explore. However, a lack of structural items creates grind. If the developer expands the core idea, this could be something special.
Ambulance Life: A Paramedic Simulator is a bit of a mixed bag. The gameplay could have been fantastic if it were not for the bugs. Moreover, the repetitive and sluggish action holds it back. If the developer can iron out the issues this could be a thrilling simulation experience. If you adore simulation games and you want to become a paramedic, this will tick those boxes.
Sky Oceans: Wings for Hire should have been great. However, poor controls and slow and repetitive gameplay hold it back. It's a shame as the storytelling was fun and I liked the lore.
Aidan in Danger is a fine indie title in small doses. However, a lack of originality and repetitive mechanics prevent it from excelling. If you want a simple platform game with some enjoyable moments, this will tick those boxes.
A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead keeps you on your toes throughout. It is creepy, uncomfortable, and just a little challenging. However, it is the silence that is deafening. If you can stay silent, you have every chance of surviving.
Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders is a special indie experience. This wonderfully challenging game will push you to your limits. However, its beauty and smooth gameplay will make you come back for more. Though I didn't play the online action, I am looking forward to carving the off-piste with my friends.
The Unexpected Quest fails to reach its potential. This slow time-sink lacks challenge and is often repetitive. Though there were some glimmers of hope, they barely papered over the cracks!
SANYA is a simple but fun nostalgia-infused adventure. Remember what it is like to be a kid. Play with friends, race on your bikes, and let your imagination go wild. It is undeniably straightforward but brilliantly enjoyable. However, it may be too basic and slow-paced for some.
Tap Wizard 2 is an idle auto-battler that is easy to play. However, it is strangely addictive and I struggled to put it down. I loved the pixelated graphics, upbeat audio, and easy controls. Though this won't be for everyone, it is a great casual indie title.
Petit Island is a wholesome family-friendly game that is wonderful to play. The slow action may not be everyone's cup of tea, but if you like to relax and explore, this should be on your radar. It is easy to play and children will need little guidance to enjoy the story.
If you want an amusing, interesting, and attractive indie title, then this is the game for you. The plot is funny, the writing is interesting, and I loved the level design. Alongside this, it can be enjoyed by a range of gamers. Consequently, I love it and I recommend buying it here! Can you save your home and defeat the alien? Search each region, build your team, and save the day.
The second I read the blurb, I knew I was in trouble. Moreover, I’m lucky I didn’t break a controller as I failed repeatedly. Yet, UNABLES tickled me in a way that other games haven’t. The bizarre blend of genres and the excellent visuals were great. Furthermore, the witty dialogue will make you smile. Accordingly, though it is painful to play, I love it and I recommend buying it here! Can you keep your cool and find every item? Twist the perspective, throw the protagonists, and complete every stage.
I don’t usually appreciate physics-based titles. They drive me around the bend and I normally give up far too easily. Luckily, I invested a fair bit of time, patience, and effort and the reward far outweighed the stress. Moreover, the story was interesting and I loved each mission. Consequently, I recommend buying it here! Will you become the next big thing at the corporation? Choose your pilot, pick a ship, and complete every mission.
