Re:Legends - Casual Game Overview and Review

 Re:Legends Game Review  Re:Legends looks kind of like a mobile game came to pc.  This was a weird start. I started to play this with a friend because, on the store page, it said that it was an online co-op. Well, it is after you do about an hour of gameplay. When it comes to co-streaming that isn't ideal.  So let's get into the game, you start off with getting yeeted off of a mountain, then washed up to shore to be found by a talking penguin. Yes, a talking penguin!  You are then given a farm for some reason, which seems pretty generous. You go and have to do a few missions to learn how to fight, there are 4 classes. Dual swords, a great sword, a bow, and a staff. You fight these monsters, that you can also befriend and tame. It also gives me a Jade Cocoon vibe, as there are different versions of the monsters depending on how you take care of and feed them. (Jade Cocoon you would merge monsters to get different variations) So they might tur...

Staxel - Casual Game Review and Overview

Staxel Game Review So last week we played Staxel which in my thoughts was like you took bits from Stardew Valley, Minecraft, and a tiny bit of Roblox and mixed them all together.  You start out with someone scaring you right at the door after you notice your broken-down house missing pieces and having broken windows. She's like hey, I have a task for you. Which turns into many tasks for herself and others.  So you get some tools first to make a garden, then you learn how to sell things in the market. There are two shops plus the market you can buy various items from. Workbenches, materials, seeds, cows in crates, clothes. There are tons of things you can really grab.  Learning how to make things is next, taking various items to workbenches that each does something different after learning a blueprint for something. While some things are already automatically learned like lumber. You saw some lumber, then assembled it together with straw and three nai...

The Walking Dead Saints & Sinners - Casual game review and overview

The Walking Dead Saints & Sinners Game Review This time we looked at a VR game which happened to be The Walking Dead, Saints & Sinners.  The beginning of this game drove me insane, when I started it up I was having problems with the programs I was using. It is a game I owned on stream so I was using a virtual desktop to play it. With Virtual Desktop it is recommended that you open everything from their program and not from the Steam VR application. But with this game, it kept asking me to press buttons that weren't there. I was using the Oculus Quest 2, and it did keep referencing another system a vibe or value or something (I forget at this point)  So to read the chat on the quest and have the game open I need it to be opened through the virtual desktop that was well not working that way with the game. So I switch over to opening it with the Steam VR which worked right away, but I could no longer see chat in the headset so I had to keep peering fro...
