Sinking Eternity Demo Review: Underwater Exploration With an Alien Mystery

Image
What Is Sinking Eternity? Sinking Eternity is a single-player underwater exploration RPG developed and published by ZeroByte. This upcoming Early Access game keeps you on edge as you explore the depths of a mysterious underwater world. Underwater Exploration, Crafting, and Skills Swimming through the water, you can analyze objects to be able to catch or harvest them. Some resources require tools that you just can't quite craft yet in the demo. As you do things, your skills will go up. I even gained a skill point just from running around! Once you collect items, you'll be able to craft just like in any other survival game, building a crafting table, gear, and more. I even shoved food into a hole to befriend a creature, only to be told I have to wait for the full game. I JUST WANTED TO SEE THE CUTE, DANG IT!! Beautiful Creatures and Something Watching You The creatures, from the fish to the monsters, are pretty. They're all bright against the dark ocean fl...

I Put 151 Hours Into Graveyard Keeper 2… Here's My Review!

Image
Graveyard Keeper 2 Review: 151 Hours of Zombies, Crafting, and Chaos! This game has taken over my life, with a total of 151 hours since it came out. (I might have left it open on the menu for a day, so it might have a few extra non-play hours. 😂) Graveyard Keeper 2 was released on September 22, 2026. It was developed by Lazy Bear Games and published by tinyBuild. This game picks up where you left off in the last game… kind of. You wake up in a dungeon 10 years after being transported into this world. A skull named Larry helps you break out of the dungeon and escape, only for you to find the town overrun with zombies. While visiting the village next door, everyone mistakes you for the graveyard keeper, and you just kind of go along with it because, hey, it's free land and a place to stay! Much like the last game, you collect materials, build workbenches, and try to figure out why you're there while making friends along the way. As you do tasks like crafting ite...

Fatal Frontier 1869 Review – Survival, Gold & Real Cash

Image
Fatal Frontier 1869 Okay, I have been super behind as I've been doing lots of other things. So, without further ado. Today we are looking at Fatal Frontier 1869 . I did not know what I was getting into with this game. Fatal Frontier 1869 is a survival PvE game with a twist. That twist is that you can earn real CASH. From a co-creator of World of Warcraft , you'll get sucked into this western-themed game. Developed and published by Paydirt Games, Inc., Fatal Frontier 1869 takes you into 19th-century Alaska, where you have to survive the wilderness, fight enemies, explore, and prospect for real gold. Surviving the Frontier In this top-down game, you have to survive the elements, and by elements I mean lions, tigers, and bears. Well, maybe just bears, wolves, and bandits. There are different characters you can get; most are paid to buy. You get some basic supplies and have to earn money by either completing quests in town or by selling items you find. Your basic ...

Dig World Early Review - I Can't Stop Playing This Addictive Steam Game

Image
Dig World Review - Early Steam Review | JellieRose.com I've been playing Dig World for the past few days. The game itself doesn't come out until the 17th of this month, so shout-out to the devs for letting me play this game early. I already have 32 of the 60 achievements, and I plan on getting them all. This game is super simple and addictive. Just One More Run... Dig World is a run-based game, so you have a time limit to dig and gather as many resources as you can. But you can't just gather them; you also have to return them to your shipping box for them to count. Some of the item descriptions are hilarious. Here are a few: Jawbone - "No more talking." Sausages - "A string of mystery meat-meat sausages." Rotten Foot - "A detached foot in questionable condition." They had me rolling. There are 400 items total, and I have around 250 of them so far. They come in different rarities: Common, Uncommon, Rare, E...

Frozen Flame Review – Is This Open-World Survival RPG Still Worth Playing?

Image
Frozen Flame Review – Is This Open-World Survival RPG Still Worth Playing? (2026) First Impressions So this game has been in my backlog for a while. Everyone knows that I like open-world, base-building, and exploration kinds of games. So, survival, sandbox, and crafting games—your basic Minecraft, Ark, Palworld kind of games. I guess those were the ones I could think of off the top of my head. I mean, there are others like The Forest, Scrap Mechanic, Satisfactory, and Valheim. I could go on for a while. I just like those styles of games and have played many of them. If you enjoy survival crafting games with exploration and building mechanics, Frozen Flame definitely fits into that category. Thanks to the Developers So let me get to the point: thanks for the key, devs! I got this game through a program called Terminals.io. I was actually assigned the game like three years ago... but I forgot Terminals existed, so it was sitting in my accepted folder....

Drunk Builder Simulator Review – Chaotic Multiplayer Hide-and-Seek Fun

Drunk Builder Simulator Review – Chaotic Multiplayer Hide-and-Seek Fun (Steam 2025) Drunk Builder Simulator - Hide-and-Seek Fun I received Drunk Builder Simulator from the developers through a creator program, Lurkit, so thank you to the developers for providing a copy of the game! Drunk Builder Simulator was released on February 6, 2025, and was both developed and published by Viper . According to the Steam page: "Chaos hits the workplace: sneaky drinks, daring bluffs, and tense hide-and-seek. Survive the shift as a worker or catch them all as the supervisor in this fast-paced, asymmetric multiplayer party game." After spending some time with the game alongside the family, I can definitely say we had some laughs along the way. First Impressions To be completely honest, when we first launched the game, none of us really knew what was happening. I'm not sure whether the game has built-in voice chat or not because we immed...

My Little Puppy Review – A Heartwarming Adventure Through a Dog's Eyes

Image
My Little Puppy Review – An Emotional Adventure Every Dog Lover Should Experience So this game was given to me by a friend who said I had to play it on stream—I couldn't just play it by myself. I was afraid it was either going to be something misleading or something emotional. It was definitely the latter. This game was released on November 6, 2025, and was developed by Dreamotion Inc. and published by Dreamotion Inc. and KRAFTON . The game is currently available on Steam for $24.99, but the feels are worth it. Steam describes the game as: "There is a saying that when you depart from this world, the dog who went ahead will warmly welcome you. While spending time in dog heaven, Bong-gu the Welsh Corgi suddenly catches his dad's scent. Now, he embarks on a journey to meet his dad. Will Bong-gu be able to see his dad again?" My Little Puppy is a story-driven adventure game with a single-player experience and Steam achievements. You play as Bong-gu, ...

Survive or Die Trying – My Hands-On Arkero VR Review

Image
Arkero VR Review (2025) – Chaotic VR RPG Action | Jellie Rose What Is Arkero VR? Well, when it comes to Arkero VR's gameplay, I would say it's an RPG. While the Steam description lists it as a MOBA with 3 classes, you can practice in a single-player mode and later take on waves in co-op or battle in PvP. Did I mention this is a VR game? Arkero VR was released on May 9th, 2025, and was developed and published by Interco Industries LLC. Its tags are Action, Adventure, VR, and Fantasy. It stands at only $11.99 on Steam, which I think is a pretty good price for a VR game. I also want to thank the devs for giving me a key through a program called Keymailer! Now, what can you expect in Arkero VR? Expect needing to practice a lot before hopping into battle. I ended up doing one of the practice trials for the Archer. Bow, arrow, draw back, and you're good to go, right? Not if you don't draw it all the way back, and ...

Is Surviving Ceres the Next Must-Play Space Survival Game?

Image
What is Surviving Ceres? Surviving Ceres is a space colony simulator. The concept of this indie survival game is to weather the harsh environment, build a colony, and survive alien attacks. Games like Surviving Ceres, I would say, one is  Planet Crafter . It falls in the same genre of a harsh environment that you want to improve.  Surviving Ceres was developed by Ryan Saunders, who also made the game Game Dev Masters and The Ai Games. Each game was also published by One Man Media. Core Mechanics: How Surviving Ceres Works In this Surviving Ceres review, you'll be able to learn the general concept and maybe a few tips. This single-player Steam game starts off in a rocket with the task of making the planet habitable for you and your soon-to-be crew. You have to be careful of not only your oxygen, but also your food and hunger. You'll start with a few things in your inventory, like water, MRE packs, a pickaxe, a HUD, and some oxygen tanks. I would sugg...

Voxile Review: A Voxel-Based Wild Ride Through a Mutated World

Image
Setting the Scene: A World Built in Voxels and Mutations When looking for crafting and building games on Steam, you might miss this voxel adventure game. Voxile is a quest, craft, loot, build, destroy, and shoot. Where you try to shoot something and accidentally destroy it, but we'll talk about that later. In this Voxile game review, you will learn about this post-apocalyptic voxel game. You might be wondering what a voxel is. Well, as you know, there are pixelated games, which are 2D. A voxel is the 3D version. So think of it along the lines of indie games like Minecraft.   Voxile was published and developed by VoxRay Games, Inc. The game was released on March 10th of this year.  Loot, Build, Repeat: Progression in Voxile When I came into this open-world voxel shooter, it wasn't what I expected. I was thinking it was going to be some kind of sandbox crafting game. I ended up clicking the campaign, and that is where everything was changed.  You st...
