The best hiking simulation I've ever played. Each step keeps you engaged.

Really loving this game so far. Hollow Knight was extremely atmospheric for a metroidvania, just like how Metroid was, and so far Silksong lives up to that quality as well after 10 hours of playing.

This game took me by surprise. I'm 20 hours in, and it became my new favourite RPG, which says something because my previous one was NieR Automata, which was also a phenomenal experience. Now I'm just really hoping the game's top notch execution and story will continue holding up until the end credits, but for the first 20 hours I've played so far, it definitely does not disappoint. I highly recommend it.

The first game was phenomenal, although a bit janky at times. This sequel fixes that and is even bigger in scope, and makes the first game feel like a prototype. I highly recommend this game!

This is my favourite game of all time and it's one of those hidden gems that not many people outside Japan knows about. I'm not talking about the censored 2017 remake by the way, but the original 1996 version. Yu-No is a classic Sci-Fi/Fantasy point-and-click puzzle/adventure game (visual novel) made in 1996 in Japan that never saw the light of day in the West, that is until it was fan-translated in English in 2011 on PC (which combines the original PC-98 version and the Saturn version's voice acting), and the protagonist's Japanese voice actor is that of Adult Link from Ocarina of Time. This visual novel pioneered the concept of using a timeline map (flowchart) to view different branches within the plot, which many succeeding visual novels took inspiration from. Games like Steins;Gate took inspiration from its genre, whereas Zero Escape and other similar games used its game mechanic. The map also allows the player to travel throughout the different timelines at any time, playing a part in the story to uncover the plot's mystery. There was a remake released in 2019 that also brought a rushed anime adaptation of the remake's artstyle, but both of them are not as good, as they been toned down by a lot, such as the removal of sex scenes that initially added character depth and the dialogue is not as abundant and witty. I highly suggest playing the original instead of the remake, not only for the more realistic character artwork, but for it's better writing/translation, and for how it is not censored. The music from the late Ryu Umemoto remains unaltered, and the heroines look more mature too where the adults truly look like adults instead of all of them looking like teenagers in the remake's art style. If you enjoyed Zero Escape and Steins;Gate, and if you can tolerate h-scenes and a protagonist with a high libido, then I strongly recommend this Sci-Fi.

The worst purchase I have done. Kerbal Space Program is great, so I expected the sequel to be even better, but it's unfinished, broken, and at $60 CAD for what is also an early access. They have players pay $60 to debug their game rather than them paying for actual testers. This is a huge problem. Luckily I refunded on time, but shows that it was tainted by a big corporation given the first game was a passion project initially made by one person.

Edit: THIS REVIEW IS FOR THE GAMECUBE VERSION, NOT THE SWITCH REMAKE This is the best Mario game I've played, even though Paper Mario 2: The Thousand Year Door isn't a true Mario game for being made by first-party developers. I have to I agree with another review in terms of how this is the gold standard of what a Paper Mario game should be, as the following Paper Mario games did not have as much challenge or flavour.

Project Zomboid is probably the best survival game I've played. Not only are you trying to survive from zombies in a zombie apocalypse, but from the environment as well. The best part of the game are details that go in everything you do. Stepping in glass shards while barefoot does exactly what you think would happen, same thing with going outside during winter with not enough clothing. I ate a raw bird once, and I slowly died within about a few days after eating it.

As a Québecois, I really enjoyed this movie's humour. I'm really curious how this movie fares to an English audience that doesn't know French though, hopefully almost as good as my experience.
