Having a really good time with the campaign - the basic premise is nothing special, but the faithfulness of adapting and using D&D 5e's core ruleset to its full potential makes it VERY worthwhile if you enjoy playing about as RAW as you can get. If you've ever been a fan of counting your arrows and worrying you're not going to have enough, of setting up a tactical ambush, and prefer a more party-based approach than most RPGs may offer you, it's a solid title.

The cons? Unfortunately, a lack of VAs (which is understandable given the small team) made it hard to choose which character should get which voice, unless you're overlapping them. It's unfortunate that many baseline classes and races are locked behind DLC. The UI *works*, but it's a bit... lacking in flair, it feels like a basic mockup that didn't get any love.

Totally recommend picking it up and grabbing whatever classes you want to play, but be warned it's not BG3 levels of huge.

As a huge fishing minigame connossieur, this is pretty good. It's more fun if you treat it as a cutesy chatroom with fishing to keep you occupied, as there isn't a whole ton of depth, but it still hearkens back to flash games in terms of main gameplay loop. Catch fish for money to buy upgrades so you can catch more fish. It's got a little metal detecting side activity (though it's barebones, it's something else to do), a few little hidden things (lottery and a miniquest for a special rod) and a single map. For $4.99, it's absolutely the sort of indie game I have no problem coming back to and relaxing with strangers with. I'd love an extra map or two, and maybe one extra minigame/side activity (bug catching would be cool, if we wanna go Animal Crossing) but it's still plenty of fun.

If you've even considered playing an anime mahjong game, you're already too far gone.

I have enjoyed a lot of my time with this game, but it's also frustrated me more than almost any multiplayer-only title. The community is up there in terms of toxicity, and the only joy to be found is in setting your own goals and improving your own gameplay.

A game in which having less 1000 hours makes you a 'weak link' is simply too much of an investment to be fun for most people - and although I will probably pick it up again for some matches in the future, I wouldn't want to inflict it on anyone I call a friend.

Gunfire Reborn with the movement of Apex, the gunplay of DOOM, the graphical style of Borderlands, and a soundtrack that mixes Hotline Miami's electronic pulsing with DOOM's heavy metal.

It also manages to be challenging without being frustrating, and I was surprised at how much I liked the game after one or two runs. Seriously underrated.

Use your bonus action to shove people every time.

TL;DR: Game is fun and cute, doesn't overstay it's welcome, and literally made me cry. Highest recommendation.

I followed the dev on twitter ages ago, and upon it releasing I knew I had to pick it up. I finally played it today and it was just great!

Normally, I'm not too keen on 'cosy' games. I've tried a bunch of what people deem as cosy, but I rarely really get into it, as gameplay usually becomes grindy or repetitive or just overwrought with stuff that's not fun. Lil Gator Game is not that. The whole way through, the dialogue is genuinely funny and engaging, the platforming manages to be involved enough to be fun, but not frustrating, and the characters and art style all manage to very comfortably evoke a classic sort of "3D platformer from the 2000's" mood.

It also manages to tell a pretty good story, invoking some meta-narrative (but not like, the kind that happens all the time now, where the game is like "oooo i know i'm a game!"), instead using it as an allegory for game making in general, without being overt about it and keeping it in the actual story instead of handwaving the characters talking about it. In the end, it actually got me emotionally invested, and then made me cry. (And, not to put too fine a point on it, but I have only cried because of a game twice before.) If you have a cool older sibling, you will love it.

I think Lil Gator Game is amazing. The only flaws I can find are that there were two typos that I found (really minor!) and I think at one point I managed to superjump from a rope jump, unintentionally. It's an absolute solid title, and a credit to games in general. I wish every game that came out had this much heart, soul, and love poured into it.

It was inevitable.

This is the guiltiest of my guilty pleasures. This game has given me brain worms that I cannot stop.

I never thought I would 'get into' MMOs. I played Runescape for a while, had a good time until my friends stopped playing and I was satisfied with accomplishing my goals, along with the grinds getting too long, so I put it down. I never really cared about WoW or anything like that.

With the pandemic on the horizon, my friend asked me if I wanted to give it a shot. I did, I tried the free trial, decided I was down to give it a bona fide, honest-to-god, lets-see-where-this-goes try. I opened myself ENTIRELY, as someone who knew little about Final Fantasy (other than chocobos and that it was a JRPG series) or MMOs, to this game.

It stuck. I met friends and just enjoyed myself throughly, and I'm really in love with a game that can do that. It has issues but I'm just too deep in at this point.

Here's my recommendation - play the free trial for as long as you're comfortable. Once you're at the point where you want to continue the story or want to be able to DO stuff you're locked out of, THEN buy the game. Level 60 isn't too far, but the story slumps for a bit once you get to level 50, and then picks up again as it heads into Heavensward.

Unless you want to play Au Ra (scales and horns on anime people), Hrothgar (lion people, like actual ones) or Viera (anime people with bunny ears), you should be fine with the trial.
