I never played Serious Sam when it came out, despite it looking like a fun game. At the time of release I was heavily invested in playing or modding Quake and Counter-Strike, and didn’t see the need for another FPS in my collection.
Playing My Steam Library
So many unplayed games in my library… Let’s play them all!
This Time It’s Miracle Sudoku!
In my quest to play through my Steam library, I found another Sudoku game that reinvents the formula with clever new rules.
GRIS Made Me Cry in Colour
What if grief could be painted into a living world? A short yet beautiful game this week, GRIS is an expression of loss, and a story of how we cope. It is a work of art more than it is a game, an interactive experience asking for interpretation.
Warframe: A Frame of a Game
I’ve heard of Warframe, but I never took the time to play it. With a very positive rating on Steam, it promises that you will “awaken as an unstoppable warrior and battle alongside your friends.” I spent around a week playing it to see what it’s all about.
Studio Goya’s Sandwich Sudoku
With a busy Christmas week I’ve not had much time for more complex games. So in-between present unwrapping and the consumption of too much food, I’ve been playing another of Studio Goya’s Sudoko games as an escape from the madness of the holiday.
Replaying Counter-Strike (2)
For a teenager in the early 2000s, Counter-Strike wasn’t just a game. It was an initiation into the world of competitive online gaming. Revisiting it through Counter-Strike II over twenty years later, feels like reconnecting with an old friend who’s sporting a sleek, modern makeover.
Story of an Empire Failed
I lost. It was a long game of ENDLESS Legend, a marathon in fact, but in the end I didn’t come out on top. The nation of Brisë came out on top, but it wasn’t without a long drawn out battle.
Conquest and War with Brise
After our victorious battle with the Dust Guardian, our empire flourished. Our armies swelled in number and new cities were built on the bones of those we conquered. As our territories expanded we encroached on lands owned by other empires. And none of them are welcoming.
Colossal Danger of Skoros
Our scout troops explored the wrong ruins and unleashed a beast upon the land. A colossal glowing beast, fuelled by Dust. A Guardian angered by our consumption of the Dust that fuels our civilisation.
ENDLESS Legend: A New Age
After countless restarts in ENDLESS Legend, I’ve finally forged an empire that feels promising. My Wild Walkers have grown from a single fledgling city to a thriving kingdom of five regions—and for once, I believe I can see this game through to the end.
