Clothing Store Simulator - Casual Game Review

Image
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...

Hitmen Havoc - Casual Game Review

Image
Hitmen Havoc This is a party shooter with up to 8 players. It was developed by, Andreas O., Marvin Pogoda, Maksim Rotmann, and Richy D. and then published by TangleTech. Right now it's just in its pre-release mode but others can join you if they have the demo. But the lovely devs sent me a key to play with friends. They even have a lovely road map letting you know what's coming up.  Gameplay This game was incredibly fun, we had a total of 6 people playing and for the spaces you do not fill you can also choose to fill with bots.  There are fun hats you can equip but in this pre-release version, you can't unlock the achievements to get more hats.  Each character has different stats to it between their speed and health. So picking the right character for you can't just be done based on looks.  There is a locked skills tab, so I'm wondering if we're going to get fireballs, or passives as well.  Maps There are a lot of various maps with ...

Robin Hood - Sherwood Builders Sherwood Builders is an action-adventure community builder, survival all rolled into one.  It was developed by MeanAstronauts and published by PlayWay S.A.  Background You are in the classic story of Robin Hood, while of course, you are Robin Hood. It's your job to liberate the people. You can do this by increasing your repetition in each area of the map. There are 4 different areas you need to turn over to your favor. You can do this by raiding caravans, attacking camps, and doing quests.  Venturing out you have to collect resources for your main town. Wood, stone, hide, and other items. Building up new buildings and houses. Each building gives you a station to craft new things as well as other things. So it's something to focus on. Being able to craft new armor, medicines, and weapons will be helpful in your adventures.  There are a lot of puzzle-type areas on the map. I had to direct lights to open a gate and mess...

Chaos Magic - Casual gaming review

Chaos Magic What is chaos magic? Well, I have played Magic the Gathering for years, and have enjoyed all kinds of side quests provided by the game like Arch Enemy, the board games with the tiles, and the many formats there are. We mainly play EDH anymore (Commander) So I decided to do a new spin on playing it.  Basic You have your normal pod of players and play the game almost normally. The first round is normal but at the start of the second round things are a little different.  Before you start your turn so before upkeep. You roll a 20-sided die.  Evens, you get the positive bowl. Odds, you get the negative bowl.  With the exception of 5, 10, 15, 20. If any of those are rolled, you don't draw a slip, instead, you put the used slips back into the bowls they came from.  Now to the bowls, what's with bowls and slips? Well, each bowl has a range of good things in the positive bowl, or bad things if it's the negative bowl. There is an exception...
