If you're looking for a cyberpunk game where you can just chill, drive and walk around, soak in the atmosphere and experience somewhat of a story, you can go ahead and buy this game - maybe wait for a sale. I got this game in a Humble Bundle, which was around 14€ for 8 games. 1,75€ for this game is a good deal.

If you're looking for a gripping story with good writing, any sort of engaging gameplay, any resemblance of a challenge or any features that would give a game the label "immersive sim", then this game probably isn't for you.

No real gameplay involved except flying around painfully slow while collecting meaningless pickups that make the narrator narrate the next line from the high-school level script about a space exploration adventure. Kinda chill when you're not really looking for a real game but more of a narrated story. Except it crashed on me multiple times which always resets your checkpoint progress so you have to restart the whole level every time. Overall not an enjoyable experience.

It's more of an edgy sh*tpost (ear rape included) than an actual game about bullying and school shooting. Fails to make an actual point while making every joke attempt fall flat.

Also, when going on a "therapeutic skate" in-game, the 19-year-old developer tries to slide in your DMs and asks you to privately message him on Twitter if you want to "talk about stuff". I'll pass and so should you.

As soon as you start to get invested in the game and its "story", it suddenly ends after just 10 minutes of playtime. Without knowing anything about the developer: To me, this seems like an unfinished student project that's more of a rough idea than an actual game. There is nothing really redeeming about this in terms of actual gameplay. I guess it runs on a potato so there's that. The art style is somewhat unique.

Play this game if you're looking for inspiration for your next indie game project that you will ultimately never finish.

Paradise killer is an insanely creative murder mystery adventure game. It has a bit of Phoenix Wright and all the good parts from Danganronpa. You will get exceptional worldbuilding, an intriguing story, lots of downright inspired characters, a slick vaporwave-inspired art style, a smooth soundtrack that goes perfect with a game like this and a fast, free movement system that doesn't drag out the game too much.

Everything about this game oozes SOUL and it brings a tear to my eye knowing that game devs like Kaizen Game Works still exist. We need more passion projects like this. I binged through the whole game in two consecutive days because it was so addicting.

Once in a blue moon, Ubisoft manages to put out a decent game. Don't get it twisted, though. This is an exception.

After the not-so-good 3D installments, Revolution goes back to its trademark 2D point-and-click adventure style. Broken Sword 5 is a lot like the first 2 games but a little worse in almost every aspect. Pretty short, too. Still a good game that should be picked up by fans of the series.

One of the better games to come out of Kickstarter so far.

The definition of a pretentious, 2deep4u hipster indie game.

Way better than the first one because of online co-op. Stunning visuals with vibrant colors and an awesome soundtrack. Buy it if you have friends to play it with.

What a strange game. The gravity-changing gameplay plays with your brain while the world looks like you're having one hell of a trip. Short and interesting.
