Very cheap game. Only it's sad I can't say that about the price tag. It's a good idea badly executed. There are many bugs left in the game and the devs lost interest in fixing them.

It's nothing gamebreaking but reaching from annoying (like non disappearing icons when you're refilling stocks) over irritating (like expenses for expansions being way above - especially later in the game - what's asked for, leading you into bankruptcy without fault) to plain funny (like if you've switched to sex shop in game next time you try a normal grocery store there are still the signs from before in the shop, leading for e.g. your sausages stated out as 'toys').

Furthermore there is so much potential lost: all shop types absolutely look the same but incorporating a mild color-change; every building has the same structure - no matter where you move to; statistics are just a bunch of icons without actual listings or tables behind; there is no graphical reference to the ongoing seasons; and I could go on but am loosing interest by now to keep on writing.

Do what you want, but I firmly advise you to not buy this game. This game should be free and I believe, from what I've heard from others, on phones it is. Thankfully I got it for under a buck, so I guess timewise I got my expenses out of it, but I was wishing for so much more ...

Steam does what Genesis don't ... Wait, what ?!? ... Now, where is my Blast Processing gone ??? ... Well, I think I'm even gonna play with Power instead now ... Nice ad for the real games. Nothing more - nothing less.

Ok, look, I can't recommend this game being a Solitaire game. this is because it just has NOTHING to do with playing solitaire, apart from featuring ye olde standard card set. Graphics are okaish but nothing special with next to nothing in regards of special effects. Sound effects and music are equally forgettable but still ok for a casual game like this.

So why do I not recommend this game, you may ask? Because this game is not casual it's silly. You always get the right card to continue playing, so there is no real strategy or luck involved. It's just clicking the cards in the right order and that's it. Even the special cards cannot change anything about this.

Furthermore the endgame gets pretty grindy. In fact you better not spend any mony or bonus cards in the earlier levels just for fun because you will need everything you got within the last ten levels of the game. On top of this you will encounter several bugs during playthrough reaching from displaying the wrong card on the deck (!!!) quitting out of levels for nothing and returning to the main screen and counting errors for when there have been none during levels where error-free play is the achievement.

In conclusion: you may get this game for achievements, because they are (even with the occasional bug happening) relatively fast and easy to get (no thinking involved) or maybe for a very young child who doesn't care for the bugs, because it may be an introduction to Solitaire style games. Everyone else should still get 'Fairy Solitaire' instead, the ONE Solitaire game that will give you hundreds of hours to get all achievements.

Wonderfull classic top down shooter from the devs of 'Neon Chrome'. Absolute must-buy classic.

While standing a little on the lower side in regards of graphics nowadays the gameplay still utterly sucks you in and gets you wanting to play that 'just one more go'. Tons of weapons and levels will keep you busy for a surprisingly long time and hard but realistic achievements will make you feel rewarded because most of them you really got to work for.

I totally recommend this game - even today - if you're a sucker for top down zombie shooters with rogue like elements.

Starts out epic (story wise) but essentially it's over way before you'd think it is. The longer playtimes solely come from playing parts of the story again and again trying out all different options until you get all achievements or see the different endings. Thing is, it's not really rewarding doing so.

I've played A LOT of the OG playbooks of the 80's and 90's and compared to these (even the simpler / short ones) this game is just a snack. You can easily play it through in like 15 minutes (when truly reading all the text), else you could be through with the plot within, let's say, 5 minutes.

The graphics are ok for a game like this (although they are fast coloured oldschool clipart style scanned sketches) and even the story has it's moments, especially when you're doing something wrong. Yet overall there's just not enough meat on the bones to keep you hooked and I don't think it's entertaining enough to keep on trying until reaching all achievements.

To be honest I wouldn't buy this again, I'd rather rate this as a free of charge game and this would be ok for me (even with adverts on smartphones for e.g.). In conclusion to this I cannot do other than rate this game down by giving it a thumbs down. Get some old Livingstone playbooks and you'll have tons more fun and enjoyment.

This game has a problem, a BIG problem: everything is as you would expect from a game like this. Yet, when you're in an actual hidden object scene the engine gets laggy beyond the point of being tolerable as far as in a late game scene I accidentialy hit the hint button, so my achievements (solving without hints) have been wasted. That's not a good thing at all. I've lost quite some hours to the game and I'm not sure I will do it again with the fear of loosing it all again just because of a stuttering input stream ...

... yet the art style is good, the story is good enough for a hidden object game (but for sure nothing special), riddles are all logical and characters well animated in many beautiful cutscenes throughout the whole game. For a discount I would still recommend this over other contenders in the genre. But beware of the lag, or discount getting all achievements right from the start, then you're good to go.

My oh my. I haven't even played for an hour by now and still can completely understand each and every negative review this game got over the past years. I'm not sure I should call this a game (and I even enjoy playing coloring books sometimes) ...

This is less a game but more of an art project for ideologically blinded people the sort of who glue themselves to the road financed by rich oil boss daughters and yet are still thinking they are doing something good other than being hopefully the last generation of idiots doing such things like oppressing their personal opinion to anybody else in the way.

(And don't get me wrong, I know there are more than enough people on every other side of the spectrum, that do the exact same thing, and I wouldn't go near saying their causes do fit the matter either.)

But back to this ... thing ... technically it's way to easy, way to boring, way to long (even while at the same time it is pretty short), way to simplistic BUT it may be you do like the graphics and sound wich I have to admit do a good job of creating the atmosphere intended by the developers.

There is only one question left: Why are they called 'Okomotive' and not 'Ökomotive' (or something like 'Ecomotive' in english)?

And BTW: if you'd like to put me in specific drawers in your mind after reading this review and not liking it ... well ... I think you didn't understand a word of it ... maybe you should think again ... like, who's blinded the one who sees only one side, or the one seeing (or at least trying) to see all?

Anyway, as this game seems to be considered art by the devs, it should be free of charge. Maybe the sequel has more gameplay to offer ... DON'T BUY THIS.

It's a nice casual game without any real challenge. You just click your way through it and will enjoy it most of the time for what it is. Though there is not much thinking involved in beating the game, you will have a bit of a hard time getting all achievements just because it takes so long. Again, it's a nice casual game so don't expect too much out of it. Actually I remember the first installment in the series being better and being a bit more on the actual strategic side, while this one here is not much more than 'click on everything that wents green' and you're good to go. A nice casual clicker worth the asking price and even more on discount.

Nice while it lasts. DLC is definitely overpriced. Would be ok for 1.99 for all DLC. Even then you could get better games for free on the App Store ...

Ok, so they tried to give Pac-Man a campaign mode. I think they have achieved at least that. BUT sadly the controls are not precise enough for a Pac-Man game regarding the speed this game is set at. What's worse is: they got the control principles wrong (as did many ports in the past)!

In classic Pac-Man you have to press ONCE to go in a specific direction and good ol' Paccy will not stop until he hits a wall or you (the player) reverse direction. Sadly, this is NOT the case with this game. Instead you have to keep your directional input pressed.

Furthermore they messed up the cornering (one of - if not THE - essential thingyou have to have precise in Pac-Man games). Often enough you press too early (what isn't a problem in the original due to the mechanics I explained above) what results in your character going anywhere or changing movement heading directly into the enemy following you and loosing a life.

Apart from that, one can see and feel they put quite a bit of work into the game, working out several new ideas and making okay-ish fantasy style graphics, music and sounds for the game. They could be better of course, but hey, it's indy and cheap, so I could get my head around that.

So, in the End, I can't recommend this game, solely because of the poor controls. As it is now it's ultimately frustrating for Pac-Man fans wo dig the controls of the original, but for newbies as well who will be infuriated by falsely interpreted inputs. Too bad. Maybe they release an update. I'd love to see that happen, because I really do like Pac-Man.
