Potion Craft: Alchemist Simulator would probably have made do with just its magical environment, but luckily it turned out to be a clever, abstract alchemy simulator that we can probably expect big things from when it reaches the final version. If you like the rough-and-tumble of running a business, its finances and controlling employees, the game probably won't interest you, because it's not really a classic business simulator. I've played similar games, but none have been quite the same and yet completely different from others with a similar idea. Sometimes I felt like I was doing the same thing over and over again, but that was only until I figured out how to do it more efficiently. By being an alpha version, there's not as much actual gameplay, but that will hopefully change soon and I believe the game has a lot of potential. Potion Craft is available on Steam for €12.49. The price is relevant and for how much the game costs, it can bring you a lot of hours of fun.

Despite all the shortcomings mentioned above, I really enjoyed Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunt. It offered me about 15 hours of fun, and even though I managed to unlock all the power-ups and maps, I still feel like I'm getting more loot for more points than in the trophy room. Maybe it's nostalgia, but it's so satisfying when you can shoot a target from a long distance and realize it was even bigger than the previous one. Or, conversely, when you get so close that only a fool would miss it. Although I wasn't expecting much from the game, I'm glad that the creators Digital Dreams Entertainment and Tatem Games haven't abandoned the series and revived it. There have been hints of DLC on Steam, which hopefully the title could see in the future. The game itself is great, it just needs a little more context. At least it's offered on Nintendo's e-store for the low price of fifteen dollars.

Hindsight 20/20: Wrath of the Raakshasa has some good ideas, such as choice and decision, as well as the theme of morality versus society. Unfortunately the gameplay is on a fairly low level. For the first ten seconds of the game, I managed to get to a point of no escape and shutting down was the only option. After an hour of playing, you realize nothing happened and just kept doing the same thing over and over. The option to make a decision in text form is there, but you always usually have to give the one answer that is expected of you anyway. For a €12,49 game I would have expected more and I certainly don't think it's worth investing both money and time in.
