Just a Little Boop!!

Image
Boop This is a very cute 2 player cat game. It came out in 2022 and has won a few awards and nominees. It's something that you could play round after round and also great for kids.  Gameplay When I started to learn this game it made me think of that old nursery rhyme. No more monkeys jumping on the bed, one fell off and bumped his head. The strategy of the game is to get 3 cats in a row. But you start off with kittens.  The box turns upside down and is converted into a bed, with a pillow top. This is your playspace which is small pillow squares of goodness for your kittens. Now you start with 8 kittens each playing a kitten one by one. If you place your kitten next to another it boops it one space away from your kitten. Your kitten can only boop the ones right next to it, horizontal, vertical, and diagonal. It does not cause a chain boop reaction and if there is a cat or kitten in the way it doesn't also move those.   Kittens can not boop cats, o...

Clothing Store Simulator - Casual Game Review This game is what it sounds like, you run a clothing store. It was developed and published by Kiki Games. This game was given to me by a program called Keymailer, so thank you devs for the game!  Gameplay You start off with a small almost empty shop. There is a computer to order things from and a cash register. It will be your job to buy displays and clothing. There are clothing racks, shelves, plants, manikins, changing rooms, and a few other things. As you level up in the game you unlock more things. This includes employees, bigger spaces, items, brand deals, and whatnot.  Your first brand deal includes three articles of clothing. There is a range of clothes, shirts, pants, skirts, dresses, coats, bodysuits, hats, shoes, and shorts. Like mentioned before as you level you will be able to buy new brand deals. This also includes personal deals. You can create your own clothing and sell it. In men's clothing,...

Pet Shop Simulator - Casual Game Review

Pet Shop Simulator  Pet Shop Simulator is well a game where you have a pet shop and run it. It was developed by Games Incubator and published by Games Incubator, and PlayWay S.A. Gameplay This starts off with an empty shop space. You have to start with building a stock room to keep all the goods when the shelves are full. Then make sure you have a checkout and shelves to put items out. The finishing step is getting a rabbit enclosure to sell some pets.   There are a lot of items to choose from, and I noticed that when your reputation goes up there are new items to purchase. Just like the fish enclosure, I didn't have it right away. Speaking of enclosure here are the pets you can sell in your shop; fish, bunnies, mice, turtles, and hampsters There are various kinds of shelving, hanging, small, and large. So of course there are different things that can be displayed on each of them. The products have a wide range. You can get cages and tanks, food and w...

Dune Mechanic : Survive The Steampunk Era Prologue - Casual Game Review

Image
Dune Mechanic: Survive The Steampunk Era Prologue Dune Mechanic: Survive The Steampunk Era Prologue is a prologue of course, and is more of a factory builder but has a survival aspect. I don't think you will die if you have no food, but you just can't see. It came out on June 13th, 2024, and was developed by Heaven Brotherhood, and published by TheGamesFortress.   Gameplay You start off crashed, what looks like some kind of stream punk fly machine. Your first task is putting together your first factory machine. This is what will make all the parts for other things you will make. As you follow your task know that some resources are limited so you can't just do whatever you want. In the first playthrough, I ran out of water, with no way to get more, and had to restart.  Back to the factory, the things you need for pretty much each machine are water and wood. There are stick-looking trees all over the place, and a small stash of water in ruins nearby. A c...

Ima Survivor - Casual Game Review

Image
Ima Survivor This game is a super basic survival game. It was developed by Archor Wright and published by Archor Games. Ima Survivor came out on June 11th, 2024 so it's new for sure. It does look like Archor Games has a plethora of games under its umbrella.  Gameplay In this game, you play as Ima Smith who ended up crashing on a random island. You find this information in the Steam store itself because when you start the game you are just left to your own devices.  You start at a campfire, which is pretty cool since normally you would have to start collecting to do your basic builds. There are starfish and crabs just walking around your feet. So I decided to do what any other normal survival game expert would do, and that is to fill my inventory. After that, I complain that I have no room in my bag.  Stamina seems to last forever, but water and food can go down quickly. Once one of those goes down your health starts to go down fast as well.  I sta...
