TLDR:

HuniePop is, at this point, a classic token matching game complemented by witty writing and and on the nose approach to humor. Overall, a fun game in it’s own right without all the *cough* *cough* plot adding to it.



Plot:

The player takes on the role as a sexless virgin normal guy that needs some help getting with women. In the beginning you meet Kyu, a magical love fairy that wants to turn you into a “walking babe magnet”. Kyu proceeds to teach you the ins and outs of HuniePop’s dating style and what each date may entail. In order to progress through the game, players must take the various women in the game on dates matching tiles of 3 or more in a row. Strategy is added by learning what each girl’s preferred tokens are when matching, giving the player the most possible points. The player can also use the game's currency “Hunie” to purchase date gifts, increase stats, and personal gifts for each girl. After a successful date, the player is rewarded with a picture of the women the date was with. Each successful date raised the game difficulty, making the following dates more difficult to complete. After 3 successful dates with a girl, the player will be able to take them on a date at night. If successful, the girl will go home with the player for a bonus round followed by a sexy picture for your troubles.

Pros:

• Fantastic art style right in line with the classic dating simulator anime style
  
• Fun and engaging gameplay that requires a moderate amount of effort and focus to complete
  
• Witty writing that using a fantastic blend of sarcastic responses, sexual innuendos, and 4th wall breaks that will get a few chuckles out of the player from time to time

Cons:

• The difficulty curve can be brutal at times
  
• Not every character will be everyone’s cup of tea
  
• Lack of direction at some points

Overall:

HuniePop is, at this point, a classic token matching game complemented by witty writing and and on the nose approach to humor. Overall, a fun game in it’s own right without all the *cough* *cough* plot adding to it.

A fantastic multiplayer or single player experience created by Team17 once again. They have to be some of the best developers out there right now. Timeless fun and endless opportunities through the various workshop maps available. This game thrives on multiplayer though so get some friends into a discord call and play a few matches trust me its huge fun!

Overall, this is a fantastic game. Everything about it's atmosphere, attention to detail, and design is damn near perfection. This is a game you put on for a few hours, throw on some music or Netflix show, and lose yourself in it. Fun dialog and engagement that never dulls and gives a great bit of depth to the game. Combine that with multiplayer ability and you get that this game is an unanimous 10/10.

TLDR: One of my favorite games I've played so far this year. Beautiful story. Simplistic yet amazing gameplay. Soothing music and effects. Just overall stunning. My only wish was that it was a bit longer

TLDR: The game is simplistic, rudimentary, and uninspired. There is a base there but it need a lot of work to become something that would be worth getting.

Notes: Honestly it is not horrible, just not a whole lot to do here aside from getting and extra 5000 achievements for your profile.

This DLC is included in the main game but I thought I would cover it anyway.

Pros: [/d] Pretty good extension. Some great sights.

Cons: Not a whole lot of achievements

Overall: 6/10

Pros: This DLC brings a whole new element to ATS. It definitely causes you to change the way that you drive. Take your time, watch your mirrors, and just get into it. This one of those DLCs that helps if you are really into driving correctly and playing by the real rules. Geared more toward hard-core ATS players but 100% approachable to a casual player.

Cons: Some of the achievements are a little non-descript and might require a look at a guide to get them done. Not a lot of flair here. More content basic heavy.

Overall: 7/10
