I know it's a free game so I am judging if this game is worth your time.

As one of the reviews here have said, this is more of a "find the right piece" puzzle instead of "find the right path". The cascaded puzzles (recursive circuits) seem novel at first but turns out to just be a tedious game design choice in the end. I wish all the pieces are just given initially instead of having to sift through and store the pieces on limited inventory slots. This gets extra annoying with the recursive circuits levels.

TL;DR Good free puzzle game ruined by questionable game design.

Seemingly a casual puzzle game, but it's more than that. It's amazing and unique how the story was told without text and dialogue through the use of moving boxes. I do agree with one of the reviews here that it's funny how the protagonist packs their things! But suspension of disbelief and all that. It's a good game, but might be more worth your money when it's on sale.

This game is short and sweet. It's got great art and music and phenomenal story telling, both reminiscent of Ghibli films. It doesn't demand too much from players, but gives so much in return. Definitely one of the best story rich games out there.

Good gameplay loop! If you enjoyed Vampire Survivors or games in that genre, this is definitely a must-have. I would say Vampire Survivors executed the concept better, but that's just a matter of taste and opinion.

For me, this game is the Call of Duty of fighting games. Real flashy graphics, exhilarating action sequences, and amazing story. That said, it's a really fun game and the "Multiverse" feature really works in its case to extend a casual player's game time.

Persona 5 Royal came to PC years after the original was released on consoles and, boy, was it worth the wait.
It took me a while to finish this game because I really didn't want the story to end—it was that good. That said though, I still think Persona 4 Golden's story is more compelling than this one and that's about the only thing this new installment of the Persona series did not improve on. The gameplay mechanics were definitely improved from their last outing and all visual and audio design are phenomenal, as expected from the series.

The game's adequately challenging and needs a bit of brainpower at its middle difficulty. It's also fairly easy to get 100% achievements if you're into that sort of thing.

I can't wait for Persona 6!

It's an okay tower defense game with a cool autochess gimmick mixed in. It's a fun game to pass the time, but I see plenty of opportunities to improve the design of the game. For instance, I think the characters (towers) can be differentiated a bit more. During the late stage of a level, they all kinda look all the same to me, which sucks when you want to sell towers to replace them with stronger ones. Another example would be the icons of the classes. Apart from the color choices for the icon design, I simply think there are too many of them in this game. It's like a restaurant having a ton of choices in their menu—it can't all be good.

TL;DR Worth it for the price and you can spend hours getting lost in the game, but don't expect a 10/10 experience.

Marvel's Midnight Suns is an absolute gem of a game. Like many others, I was initially turned off by the supposedly tedious "social" mechanics, but once I tried it during the free weekend, I quickly realized that it's not the case at all. There's a good sense of difficulty for the most part and the gameplay loop is really quite addicting. The story/lore is great, too, and I just can't see anything that might be a dealbreaker for anyone aside from some bugs and questionable performance. It's a really good RPG game and definitely ranks as one of the best games of 2022, if not the one.

As people have said, it's a really short game. I found the controls to be a bit janky and for a game that relies heavily on rotating stuff around and putting them up and down, it should be more polished. Alas, the soul of this game is less about the gameplay but more about its beautiful art style and sweet (and short) story. Typical mushy story that I usually associate with indie games, but good nonetheless. For completionists, this is a quick 100%. Buy on sale if possible to get more of your money's worth.

It's safe to say that this game is up there among the best JRPGs I have played so far (along with the likes of Final Fantasy Tactics and Persona 4 Golden). A gripping, albeit a bit predictable story at times coupled with a deep enough combat system makes this game a definite must-play for any JRPG fan.
