Review: All the Delicate Duplicates

All the Delicate Duplicates by Mez Breeze and Andy Campbell is a musing on the theme knowledge is power and how knowledge can change your perception of the world — sometimes in drastic ways. It’s also a psychological drama about a single father and his daughter (John and Charlotte Sykes) — or is it a […]

Review: The Cat Lady

The Cat Lady by Harvester Games is a 2D point & click adventure puzzle game with a strong, mostly real-life, horror theme and was pretty damn good. It’s pretty dark and macabre too and deals with some heavier subjects like depression, suicide and, to some extent, psych ward abuse. As dark as it is, though, […]

Review: Fibrillation HD

Fibrillation HD by Egor Rezenov, a game in a similar style as that in NaissanceE or Kairo. Fibrillation shows the organic, human side of brutalism, while for example NaissanceE focuses more on the brutal, more depressing side of it. You don’t get the enormous scale of NaissanceE, but you do get more life-like textures. It’s […]

Review: INFRA

INFRA by Loiste Interactive is, for me, a game about urban exploration — of a type where you also get to repair the damage and restore some of the locations you visit to their former glory. If you have ever done any urban exploration and liked it, then this is a must play. There’s a […]

Review: Dream

Dream by HyperSloth is a first person exploration game where you play a guy trying to figure out what to do with his life. It’s apparently a pretty dull existence, but his dreams are far more vivid and exciting than his waking life, so he tends to want to sleep a lot, which might not […]

Review: NaissanceE

NaissanceE by Limasse Five is a brutalism exploration 3D platformer set in a mysterious world inhabited by strange creatures. Then there’s you, the player, who seems to be a human hunted by a large snake-like thing. You either don’t belong here or have overstayed your welcome — or are you on the run, looking for […]

Review: Please Knock on My Door

Please Knock on My Door by Levall Games is a pretty accurate representation of what depression can be like — so accurate in fact that I never want to play it again. The game sort of made me relive my own history of depression, so you might not want to play it at all if […]

Review: Sylvio 1 & 2

Sylvio 1 I might be a little late, so this review is for those who haven’t played the game a couple of times already, or for those who played the original version (released in 2015) and might be interested in the completely remastered version (released in 2016). I first learned about Sylvio 1, made by […]
