Swordcery

What do you get when you take swords you add more swords then even more swords and multiply that by a billion you get swordcery the ultimate sword rougelite adventure but first i wanna give a huge thank you to Temple Door Games for sending me a copy to check out its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

Swordcery is an action rougelite with a heavy focus on swords of all styles shorts swords great swords duel swords rapiers and so on this game is the borderlands of swords and the name fits when you start discovering just how many swords you get to find and use during your runs.

So whats this game about well a giant sword drops out of the sky impaling itself into a mountain and then the world itself cause a catastrophic event and then the game begins.

So the game uses procedural generation for its world’s so not every forest level you start with is the same and trust me ive started out with quite a few since you know you die a lot each level is broken down into rooms that you clear and then choose a path to proceed each room has a different reward some offer relics others coins my favorite are the sword rooms cause you dont know what awesome sword you will get or what rarity as well.

Each level ends when you beat the boss and so far the forest boss is a hard fucker indeed as his attacks hit hard compare to the damage you do think dark souls but top down style.

Now this is a pc game but thankfully it lets you play with a controller which I highly recommend you use one since its easier to play with one in my opinion as the mouse and keyboard felt a bit complicated for my taste.

The game is fun it reminds me of games like returnal in the sense where you get one life and gotta complete the game in one life this adds a big challenge but eventually you do unlock and discover other stuff that helps you along the way i made it almost to the 4th world before i died but the swords I got to use the enemies I faced and the levels I visited all were amazing and so well done these devs really made an amazing game and i cant wait to see what gets added to the game down the road.

Swordcery is available on steam for 17.99 its not a demanding game so plenty of people will get to play it, again thank you to Temple Door Games for sending me a copy its greatly appreciated have a great day and game on.

Box Knight

What happens when your 9 to 5 finally sucks your soul out and leaves u a husk of your former self transforming you into a monster meant to slave away till the end of time well thats Box Knight and its insane fight against corporate corruption but first i wanna send a huge thank you to We Made A Thing Studios for sending me a copy its greatly appreciated so let’s talk about Box Knight.

So your corporate job has fallen taken over and transformed by the evil corruption and its up to you the Box Knight to bring balance to work again so get ready to journey across different levels fighting an insane variety of monsters and some bosses that would make Sauron proud.

First off this game literally looks like lord of the rings was a inspiration for all the low level goblins and all there abilities and tactics they use but thats just my opinion but the game does have a big variety of monsters and I love that everytime you meet a new mob a screen pops up telling you about them what they do and how to combat them sorta like a pokedex but for monsters and i think thats cool as hell and love that feature of the game.

So as I said every monster has its own gimmick I guess one mob I encountered that I instantly hated was the supervisors they summon more monsters to fight for them and are a bit of a pain since they fly so you gotta jump and butt stomp in there area to knock em down so you can kill them another one was the healer goblin I hated him so much he heals the strongest monster in the area making fights harder for you.

The bosses are honestly some of the best fights ive had in an action rougelite each having different combat styles as well as different powers each boss definitely made me think twice during the fight.

The game also has armor and weapons that you can unlock with in game currency theres helmets and the body armor each having there own stats that you can mix and match as well theres also 3 weapons for now but im sure more will be added i would love an axe or duel wield I think it would be pretty bad ass to do.

Theres also an upgrade area which focuses on your stats which is also very helpful when battles are intense.

The battles themselves aren’t so bad but can get hard with certain monsters you gotta survive 3 waves and kill everyone while monsters keep spawning until your done there’s also other office workers you gotta save which can give you xp boost or health potions.

All in all Box Knight is a blast and taking on corporate corruption is a blast i cant wait to see what the team adds to the game but i for one will be enjoying my time with box knight and cant wait to see whats in store for the game thank you for stopping by take care and game on.

Ground Zero Hero

So what do you get when you mix vampire survivors with Rick and Morty you get one hell of a chaotic combination and thats Ground Zero Hero thats what we are talking about today but first off i wanna say a huge thank you to Acclaim and Rowan Edmondson for sending me a copy of the game to check out its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

As you know im a huge rougelite fan Vampire survivors started such a fun genre and everytime a new game comes out in it I try my best to get a copy and cover it so when Ground Zero Hero hit my radar I knew i wanted to try it out and see what spin on the formula they did.

So you start out with the first level everything else is unlocked the goal of each level is to kill 9,999 monsters and then you have to kill a boss for a total of 10k monsters is that a lot absolutely and I admit i got my ass handed to me plenty of times but each defeat makes you stronger as you unlock new powers and if you have the coins you can upgrade certain stats like health, crit and so forth so I failed about 5 times i think it was until I finally got a decent build going now if you have played any rougelite you know after a while the enemies are multiple and swarm you fast so this game offers a day and night cycle now you can brave the night and fight taking on stronger enemies or you can find a bunker and sleep the night away and it resets the field for a bit but whatever items you didnt grab before you went to sleep you lose immediately which is part of the reset. Now as you level up you can unlock a new power but on later levels it slows down as you need more and more xp so from all the power ups I noticed there was no xp power up just the basic powers at different levels as well as speed, power and attack speed.

So far each level plays the same 10k monsters survive and move to the next im stuck on a level as the monsters hit harder and none of the combinations im doing seem to help me out but that isnt stopping me from having a good time and honestly that was a worry of mine could I have a good time while having to kill so many monsters and for me that answer was yes I was still having fun the levels offer monster diversity as well as random events happen that make them even more funnier my favorite is when you set off a nuke it explodes and an alien pops up looking like wtf is going on theres also random power ups like riding a cow and plowing through enemies until it explodes theres also piñatas around the map that help keep you going by giving you health and candy which you need.

Later levels does increase in difficulty but that just adds to the challenges and makes the game more fun all in all Ground Hero Zero has been amazing its a blast and I for one am looking forward to how they keep the game growing thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Security 51

Hey everyone hows it going today i wanna talk to you about Security 51, so if you’ve played games like papers please then you will understand this game perfectly, but first i wanna thank Alawar for swnsing me a copy its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

So whats the premise of this game your a security officer at some high level government facility and its your job to check everyones information for any issues and if there’s issues well you send them away or call security depending on the type of issues.

The game is fun and simple mouse and shift mostly for everything but it feels a bit dead theres no real story to follow your just checking work ids and passports making sure everything matches your also taking pictures and scanning for bodily issues and dont get me wrong sometimes simple is all you need but nothing pulls you in the game doesnt make you feel like your mistakes are fatal and it feels a bit lackluster in my opinion.
The game has a tutorial thankfully which shows you how to do stuff and how to make sure everything is going great but the times ive made mistakes im still able to fix them and it sucks cause I wanna feel on edge I wanna feel like its life or death.

Do I recommend the game yeah its fun simple a great time killer but if you have played games like papers please this might not be worth it the games on steam for 9.99 so check it out and judge for yourself thank you for stopping by take care and game on.

Doloc Town

Hello everyone hows it going today i wanna talk to you about a little farm sim adventure game called Doloc Town but first a huge thank you to redraw games studios and logoi games for providing me with the key its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

Doloc Town is a big adventure right from the start as your nameless character is on a journey to the legendary eden thats located near doloc town but things dont go as planned as during ypur journey you fall from a massive height some how surviving and being nursed back to health by the first towns person you meet after much talking you end up becoming part of the town and things slowly open up from there.

You soon start to learn how to farm and build and boy is there a lot to learn and theres a decent tutorial even though I feel some aspects of it could add some more details. But in do time you learn and start getting a hang of things theres also a tech tree which also helps you learn new things you can build.
Now the biggest aspect of the game i feel is divided between building up your farm and learning new things to the exploration of the massive world around the town of doloc and trust me explore you must.

The game takes place in a i guess war torn setting maybe something else there is mention of a war from one of the towns people I just like how everything is held together as best as possible showing that even in the darkest times we dont give up.

This game has a massive amount of content to learn and do and honestly its so easy to get lost the cozy vibes the farming and scraping the awesome bad ass drone companion you get to help you stay alive the games been out for over a year in early access and finally enters its awesome 1.0 stage in mear days the devs have honestly made an amazing game and it deserves all the praise it gets so definitely grab doloc town on steam i hope consoles are on there road map cause this game deserves all the attention thank you for stopping by take care and game on.

DragonSword Awakening

Hello everyone today i wanna talk to you about a gem of an rpg ive been playing called DragonSword Awakening but first I wanna send a huge thank you to the team at HOUND13 for sending me the game its greatly appreciated.

Now there are rumors around that this was supposed to be a gacha game but everything was taken out is that true I dont know everything ive played and done so far has been acquired from the game itself the only things I see that cost money are some costumes and the deluxe edition upgrade other then that everything is in game well on to the show then.

So ive been playing deagonsword at a decent pace nothing huge im sitting at 10.3 hours as of this writing but expect that number to grow as I definitely have not scratched the surface of the game.

The game follows Lute after he crashes his ship onto the continent of Orbis in search of meeting with his family but fate has other plans for him as he meets castella and Johnny members of the Johnny mercenaries who are on a crazy quest to complete and trick lute into helping which is where the game starts letting you take over and a simple tutorial progresses you through the area. The game quickly enters you into combat and the combo system which makes combat unique in this game as each character offers there own status effects and combat style.

Soon after your back in town being dragged into a temporary trial with the Johnny group and this is where the story starts to unfold and so far its an amazing story one that has a good amount of plot twist.

The world of Orbis is big the map is huge and you slowly discover it as you go by finding these ancient windmills that clear up the fog in the pertaining area, there are also statues of the goddess that you must rebuild and each statue not only heals you but doubles as a warp point to make travel quicker and trust me travel you will but the game doesnt make you suffer as the game gives you this awesome beetle mount that helps get you around and the best part you use them to climb so you can get to higher areas.

The game also has cooking which is how you make healing items and theres also a blacksmith which helps craft gear so far though I havent seen any new weapons so im not sure if there is any.

Onto the game itself the game is very colorful the graphics feel a bit like genshin lots of colors and beauty the game plays amazing I havent encountered any stutters or frame drops exploring is fun and the cities are filled with life as you explore them you can actually talk to people as some even have quest you can do to earn more xp and materials.

The variety in monsters has been fun from different goblin types to what look like humanoid hyenas and even golems hiding in rock formations as well as bosses and some insane fights that are part of the story.

Ive had an amazing time with the game so far and I definitely recommend it if your a fan of rpg games and dont mind some exploring and questing as you go

Again I wanna thank Hound13 for sending me the game its been a blast and its greatly appreciated thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Cargo Please!

Hello everyone hows it going today i wanna talk to you about a sweet little gem made by a solo dev a huge thank you to Cyber752 Games for sending me a copy to check out its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

Cargo Please! Is a fun top down style delivery game that has you running cargo all over the city, and well thats pretty much it.

So your taking over your uncle’s delivery route you start off with a scooter and start earning money you use your phone to accept jobs and you goal is to get the package to the destination as fast as possible while also keeping the package from being damaged if its damaged you lose points with the customer in turn hurting your rating and I gotta say those ratings are everything or so it may seem.

Theres a garage that helps you fix your ride from damage and its where you can also purchase new vehicles that are also faster and there are different tiers to the vehicles which also reflects in the jobs you get to take.

Now as with every delivery game there is a shall I say risky side to the business where you can take high risk jobs for more cash but watch out as the cops patrol the city and if they catch you with contraband well your out of luck.

All in all cargo please keeps it simple and aims for simplicity over complex unnecessary extras and honestly it shows in how fun the game is and is one of those play and chill games where the hours melt away.

Again I wanna thank cyber752 games for the game and thank you all for stopping by take care and as always game on.

Granblue Fantasy Relink Endless Ragnarok PS5 Review

Hey everyone hows it going? Today i wanna talk to you about GranBlue Fantasy Relinks base game story but first a huge thank you to Cygames inc for sending me the game its greatly appreciated and an honor to work with these guys for the first time.

GranBlue is an rpg with an amazing story it follows Gran and the crew as they journey across the skydom on an adventure to find the mythical floating island of estalucia This game has so much to talk about so I will do my best to cover most of it.

At first i went into this game thinking it might be a gotcha game having no history with this game i miss judged it and I am glad this game proved me wrong. First let’s talk about the graphics I havent had a game blow me away in graphics since final fantasy X on ps2 the game was just that beautiful between cinematics and cutscenes as well as general environments the game really left me amazed and I did not wanna stop playing i needed to know more of the story and what was going on.

Now i suck at rpg games when they involve stats and weapon stats i always mess them up but some how this game even though it had all that it was fairly easy to understand and to position everything the way i wanted the whole time I played i got massive final fantasy 10 vibes and honestly I loved it and wanted to see what else might have been in the vibe factor. Each character has its own stat tree which is great because it makes sure you pay attention to each character instead of just the one you control and trust me you will wanna invest as some of the fights I had I was way under leveled for.

There are multiple characters you get to use across your journey and even though there’s some in the store you can purchase at 3 dollars this is completely optional as the game has character cards you will find during your play through and you use these to unlock characters even the newest ones added from the dlc.

Theres also a new summon mechanic and transcendence and master levels that come from the dlc which i will talk more when i get to enjoy the dlc as well. Which your probably wondering if its worth the money and honestly yes it is considering how much new stuff is added and the size of the dlc itself absolutely buy it.

The combat system is easy to learn and hard to master between normal attacks and skills as well as link attacks theres a lot happening on screen and I found it easier to use the targeting system so I could keep my main target in focus. Each character has an ultimate attack gage that fills up as your battles progress letting you deal out huge damage if done right.

The places you visit are all beautiful from snow mountains to big city’s and everything in between theres something for you to do in each location and there’s a lot of items to find on each map everytime we went to a new location I would open up my map and run around a la path of exile lol.

Now the story was honestly intense I had moments i didnt wanna stop playing but had to cause you know adulting but man the bond between the party and lyria is insane everyone is one big family and the trials we faced left me with my jaw on the floor the final chapters of the story where everything got even more intense as enemies turned to allies and beyond truly top tier story telling the writers really knocked it out of the park.

Im sorry for so much vagueness but I dont like to spoil story points in my reviews and this game is one huge story so this is a bit hard when I write about the dlc ill do my best to touch more on the story just know that gran was not taking any crap from anyone he was getting lyria back no matter what.

I had a blast with this game sitting at around 16 hours for the base story i have so much more to discover and enjoy and i for one plan on it again thank you to Cygames for sending me a copy i greatly appreciate it everyone thank you for stopping by take care and game on.

Farlands PC Review

Hello everyone today i wanna talk to you about an awesome little farming game ive been playing called Farlands but first a huge thank you to JanduSoft for sending me a copy its greatly appreciated let’s dive in.

So Farlands sees you leaving the busy city life in exchange for buying your own planet in a far away galaxy that seems to be a total dumpster fire but you make it work.

My one gripe with the game even though its simple to understand for the most part is the no tutorial at least an actual tutorial as I dont count reading pages that tell you what tools are used for as a tutorial when thats basic knowledge the game also for some reason uses the right mouse button to click into stuff and thats just weird as hell and took a bit for me to find how to make shit work because of that again a simple tutorial could have remedy that.

Now onto the game itself you have a huge piece of land a small house and a space ship all of which are important to you as the day progresses you waste energy until you need to sleep to recover the space ship lets you explore the other planets which each have there own resources you will need to progress and finally your land where you will plant seeds and progress the story all in the name of progress.

My favorite part of the game is there’s some aliens you are trying to get help from but they want you to complete a solar encyclopedia of different items in your system before they will help you as they wanna make sure your galaxy is worth there help and honestly thats my favorite part of the game its your main goal as well and trust me theres so much to find and register its a bit insane.

The game is super chill and cozy and honestly will probably mesh with players that have played games like stardew valley as thats probably the closest comparison I can come up with.

Farlands definitely has a ton of stuff to do even though it feels repetitive at times but its one of those games you can pick up play and put down and play again the one thing I wanna see added is a manual save option having to kill a day to rest just to save is a bit of a hassle all in all i definitely recommend farlands you can play on steam ps5 xbox and nintendo switch, thank you all for stopping by take care and game on

#Drive Rally

Hello everyone today i wanna talk to you about #Drive Rally but first a huge thank you to the team at Pixel Perfect Dude for sending me a review copy its greatly appreciated.

Now even though the games been put for a while on PC I was sent a copy for the PS5 and I gotta say the game played beautifully and I had a blast every minute of the way.

The game offers a few modes from online to championship to free roam now i didnt get to do online as my schedule and my buddy saviors schedule had a hard time matching up so I mainly focused on championship mode with some free roam.

In free roam its exactly that you pick a map and drive around i used this mode to get a feel for the cars as well as to find collectibles scattered around the map and I gotta say the free roam maps are massive I wasnt expecting them to be that huge.

In championship mode you pick a race team and progress through multiple races and chapters until your crowned the champion and i gotta say its also another way to unlock more cars and variety i did have some slight issues as my Co pilot for some reason always gave me the instructions for turns late but it turns out there’s a setting in the menu that lets you adjust the timing of your GPS navigation so change that before you race but even with that I did awesome on races held my own was able to compete against the computer and in general just have fun.

Drive Rally is only the second Rally game ive ever played the first being exo rally championship for pc which was also a blast but each game even though a rally game played vastly different but neither lost the fun factor and honestly now a days having fun with the games i play has become a huge factor for me.

Another thing i love a out drive rally is the art style it has this unique shaded art graphics that honestly do not hurt your eyes and even on a massive TV screen you can enjoy the game without any issues.

#Drive Rally was a roller coaster of fun from start to finish for me and i honestly cant wait to see whats added to the game so if you want an awesome racing game where you can play with friends and just have fun then pick up drive rally on pc and ps5 the game is also available on physical for all my awesome collectors out there, again thank you to the devs for sending me a copy its greatly appreciated thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.
