GameLuster's Reviews

Dec 17, 2024

The Thing: Remastered is a solid remaster of a decent game that isn't lacking in interesting ideas but doesn't seem to know what to meaningfully do with them.

Two great games afflicted by the curse of time, and only the barest effort seemingly expended to get them functional on modern consoles, the remasters of Soul Reaver and its sequel somehow diminish these pieces of gaming history even as they bring them forward for current audiences.

The Spirit of the Samurai has more flaws than I could possibly list here and frustrated me for large parts of my time with it, but damn, does it have a vibe.

6 / 10.0 - Spirit Mancer
Dec 4, 2024

Spirit Mancer offers a creative mashup of hack-and-slash and deckbuilder gameplay, but the experience is held back by various technical issues. Despite these flaws, this whimsical world was clearly crafted with love.

Despite the looming potential, what starts off fun ends up tedious, with a story that doesn't feel rewarding enough to justify the grind.

Sorry We're Closed promises a decent survival horror experience, but nothing more than that. It could use more polishing but won't rise to greatness.

Farming Simulator 25 makes some exciting improvements to AI and automation compared to its predecessors, making the game better in areas that it already excelled at, but it fails to ease the intimidating learning curve that's been in the franchise for a while.

Though Veilguard plays it too safe too often, this update on a Bioware structure is addictive. It takes a while to get used to its presentation, but once it starts dishing out punches there is no going back.

While the storyline doesn't quite hit the same as its predecessor which is amplified by the longer gameplay length, The Rise of the Golden Idol still has very engaging gameplay and puzzles. I'm happy to say that I was hooked once again.

Nov 19, 2024

Loco Motive is a worthy successor to the classic point-and-click pixel adventures, featuring a twisty mystery and a cast of memorable, hilarious characters.

Threshold has some interesting ideas but it very bare bones both in terms of gameplay and storyline.

7 / 10.0 - Tetris Forever
Nov 16, 2024

The lackluster lineup of titles in Tetris Forever only adds salt to the wound of having to follow up one of this year's best titles, but the greatness of the story and Tetris itself still comes through.

8 / 10.0 - Mindcop
Nov 15, 2024

Mindcop challenges you more than other point-and-click games. It's certainly not easy, but the mystery immersion is well worth the difficulty.

Vampire Survivors: Ode to Castlevania finally gives us probably the most wished-for collab possible for this game, and in doing so adds an insane amount of new content and an interesting new dynamic to its structure.

Death of the Reprobate is an incredibly silly point-and-click puzzle game which uses Monty Python-style humor and an art design consisting of Renaissance paintings to create a hilariously random experience.

Nov 7, 2024

Though a little rough around the edges at the moment, Mirthwood is a definite up-and-coming RPG that’s been a blast to play.
