Songs of Silence is an early-access strategy RPG. The game reminds me of Ogre Battle, Unicorn Overlord, and Heroes of Might and Magic. I’m a little torn on this one because I like most of the game’s content. I have a few minor problems with it, though. While it reminds me of some of myContinue reading “A First Look at Songs of Silence, a Dark and Fascinating Game”

The Best Indie Horror Games

 I’ve been playing more indie games in the last few years. I find them to be much better than the AAA games. Big-budget games all feel the same, while indie games tend to take more chances in terms of subject matter and gameplay. This is an update from last year’s blog post on indie horrorContinue reading “The Best Indie Horror Games”

The Wonderful Indie Game FTL, An Amazing Rougelike Masterpiece

FTL: Faster Than Light was released a while ago, but I decided to revisit it after playing Dream Warrior. Dream Warrior borrowed much from FTL, but it isn’t as in-depth.

Like many roguelikes, FTLContinue reading “The Wonderful Indie Game FTL, An Amazing Rougelike Masterpiece”

You know my name? A Very Short Visual Novel

You Know My Name is a very short visual novel. There is no gameplay; it feels more like an art project than a video game. The story, visuals, and music are all nice. I think the developer is trying to get the player to think about what happened to the Narrator, a girl of undeterminedContinue reading “You know my name? A Very Short Visual Novel”

A Short Hike, Short Game that made me Smile

Short Hike is an adventure game. It has similarities to Firewatch but with a more laid-back atmosphere. The only thing you have to do is take a hike to the top of a mountain and then return to your Aunt May. The graphics remind me of a good-looking PS1 game. It seems like more indieContinue reading “A Short Hike, Short Game that made me Smile”
