Fading Visage looked promising before I bought it, It looked promising when I just started it and became terrible after the first bit of the game.

It's nothing else then repeating yourself, follow a spirit, grab something, run back to the house, don't get caught by the shadows and repeat.
When you did this enough times and got all the items you will get an abrupt ending (which did not work properly for me).

The game at first looks really big but it's actually a very small map and I believe in this kind of game, game physics are key.
as example you run from the shadows and come to a branche on eye height, I would say you should get stopped by the branch. In this game you will just walk right through a lot of obstacles making the game extremly easy.
This could be a game that makes your adrenaline rush when you are running from the shadows, but this game has no running in it and you hardly notice that you are being chased by something.

It does have some achievements that adds a little to the time you can spent on this game but if you go through this game in one go it can be easily finished within 30-45 minutes.

Pros:
- The idea is nice
- Very simple controls
- It has a few achievements

Cons:
- Graphics are not that great
- Loading times can be long
- Bad physics
- Very short playing time
- No trading cards

This game can be played by everyone although it can be scary for little kids and is just to boring for real gamers.

Illie is a small and easy puzzle game and perfect if you have a few spare minutes.
For a puzzle fanatic this game will be a little bit to easy, I personally love these kind of puzzle games and managed to finish the 60 levels this game has within 35 minutes.

The game is created in a very simple style but it goes realy well with this kind of game. and as a bonus this game has a nice amount of achievements.

Personally I don't think it's worth the €1,99 so if you can pick it up on sale or in a bundle then I would recommend it.

Pros:
- Has achievements
- Easy to learn
- Simple controls

Cons:
- A little bit to easy
- Annoying music
- A little short

This game is perfect for casual gamers and for all ages.

It is very hard to write a serious review for Cold Blooded Cube. This game is a joke.
Maybe it's better not to call this a game, this looks more like a tutorial level for some game development program. (and the tutorial clearly did not end well)

It is a platform game where you walk with a little black cube, you do some walking you do some jumping and maybe fire a few bullets and thats it, this game will take about 5 minutes of your time to complete.

Did I mention it is riddled with bugs, collider bugs, hitbox bugs, jump bugs, they actually have an achievement where you have to exploit one of the bugs. Cold Blooded Bug would be a better name for this game.

and yes that was not a joke it actually has 4 achievements, very very simple achievements.
This game could become something but for now it's absolutly nothing.

Pros:
- Low Price
- It has some achievements

Cons:
- Alot of bugs
- Way to short
- Clumsy controls

This game is for all ages

What can I say about "Good Morning", it's an Open world Sand Box game. You can basicly go wherever you want and do what you want.
Become a bank robber, a drugdealer, a serial killer or be just the guy next door.
Let me just start with saying that this game in is Early Access and looking at the game how it is at the moment I surely hope it will stay in Early Access for now, The idea is good, the result so far is not so good.

There are a bunch of serious performance issues, I played the game for about half an hour a died twice because I couldn't walk anymore because of the lag, I took on the role as a mass murderer and started killing everything that came in side.
Eventually I was very wanted and the police came for me but when I started stacking body's the game just couldn't handle it, it became extremely laggy and eventually the game just freezes.

The world is designed in a very minimalistic way, because of this the map looks really empty and boring and not very inviting to start exploring. Same with the buildings you can enter everything but they are basicly just empty shells with nothing in them.

I really like the idea and really hope the dev(s) can and will fix the issues, It has the potential as a very fun game but as of now I will give it a thumbs down.
I will come back to this in a few months to see if there is any improvement but I have a feeling that this game has been abandoned. If they do fix the problems and turn it into a better playable game I will reconsider to give it a thumbs up.

Pros:
- Large open world
- Almost every building can be entered
- Simple controls
- Fun concept, could turn into a really fun game

Cons:
- Long loading times sometimes
- Horrible performance issues, both on the lowest and highest settings, extreme lag when you kill a few people in the same
place.
- Terrible Graphics, Polygone style gone wrong, little effort has gone into placing buildings and trees in a natural way.
- NPC's all look like stickmans and only have the most basic of functions, some run away when they see you with a gun,
the guy mawing the lawn couldn't care less and almost asks to be killed. They have no faces, they have no gender, and
only some of them say very basic stuff (vendors)
- If the NPC's say something you can expect a few spelling errors.
- The gore used in this game is not inline with the polygone style, it looks weird and doesn't fit the game.
- No options, no way to get out of the game in a normal way
- No achievements, No Tradingcards

This game is for an adult audience the game includes:
Guns
Gore
Drugs
Violence
small amount of racism
small amount of sexual content

Warning, first ask yourself the following question:

Are my fingers faster then my Brain, if the anwser is YES! proceed and buy this game.

Seriously, finishing this game takes some skill, some levels are very easy, some of them cause a rage quit.

Fun little game though if you have some spare minutes.

Yet another piece of crap that was created by Vyacheslav Shilikhin.
Just like all it's other games, achievements don't unlock, A tag for trading cards that don't excist, the game is abandoned so no solutions for the problems, this is a way of trying to get rich over the back of others.
this is actually so bad i'm removing it from my library.

People remember his name, he's a scam. Steam get rid of his crap please.

I don't write bad reviews often but this one just deserves it, why?:

1. 3 Broken achievements, i'm a achievement hunter and i want to finish these games, this one i can't finish so it's automaticly on my black list of death.
2. The tags state there are trading cards, I kept the game active for 3 hours and still no card.
3. problems will not be solved since the game is abandoned
4. controls are clumsy
5. very easy and cheap game to make and it shows

Conclusion i'm gonna remove this game from my library, pray other people don't fall for this crap and hope Steam will do more to keep these sort of games out.

DON'T BUY

A very short and very weird game but i had actually fun playing it.
The game is very minimalistic, but the idea behind the game is very funny.
If you like the elderly let them live, if you hate the elderly just kill 'em all.

If your not into small and easy to finish games this is not for you, if you take life not so serious and to have an OMG moment this is definitly the game for you.

I got this game with a discount and then it's wortht the few cents.

How come this piece off worthless coding made it to steam? was it build by the kid of the Valve CEO or what.
This is the biggest insult to a Wolfenstein 3D look-a-like ever entered the world. if this was a learning thing for a future game dev then it's fine, but really it was accepted on steam, just WOW.

I paid a whopping €0,10 for it and it's still not worth the €0,10. i should have bought a Chupa Chup with that money.

1 positive thing (i can't really believe it), but it actually has some achievements, so if you are a achievement junky, get in get very annoyed and get those achievements.

-update-
It had a few achievements, now it has 1000. this is just terrible.

What can i say it's a clicker game, and thats all there is to it, you plant and put down some stuff, you upgrade some things en you click away like no tomorrow, if you are into click games it is a nice little game, if you are an achievement hunter it's a fantastic game, within a few hours most achievements can be yours.

So if you have some spare time, why not spend it on some mind numbing click game.
