Hotel Galactic

Hey everyone hows it going Happy New Years and welcome to 2026, today I wanna thank Ancient Forge, for sending me a copy of there awesome game Hotel Galactic so let’s dive in and talk about it.

So Hotel Galactic is a hotel builder game with a great story and draws inspiration from Studio Ghibli which is very obvious in both the art style and characters in the game.

So you the player are what’s called a pilgrim a spirit that comes upon the Hotel in ruins and its staff super upset as they failed to make an impact. so there’s a bit of a 4th wall break with the way they interact with you which I think is very cool and actually makes me feel like its more then just a game. The crew basically gives you control of the hotel and grounds and its up to you to give it life again and guess what, life we shall give it.

So in story mode your following everything at a set pace to start out with you slowly start fixing the hotel and bringing it back once the hotel is done you work on the landing pad which is where flying ships will land and let people off so they can stay at your hotel, yes your read that right flying ships you see this is where the galactic part in the name shines as your hotel is on a floating island out in space surrounded by other planets but you learn that when you open the games map and check it out.

So the first person you meet after the hotel opens is the most important character in the game Captain Pouncy Paws after some talking she agrees to help you and she will be the ship that brings people to your hotel.

After the great Captain is the merchant ship Captained by Silver who will make it obvious right from the get go all he wants is money but he does start by helping you out with some great stuff and then gives you a summon icon where you can summon him when you need it but you gotta wait 8 hours for him to show up thankfully time goes by very fast in the game.
Then soon after another captain shows up by the name of mogumo and hes just as important as he brings new workers your way yes you do have to pay to hire them but they each have talents and specialty so knowing what you need is a good way of knowing who to hire.

The game offers a variety of species of personal all of which are adorable in there own way you have the pington race which are a short species that have a trumpet horn for a nose and enjoy music which they will let you know so you can make there stay that more enjoyable, after you have the toravis which remind me of horses with there appearance they to will tell you what they like and there focus is on tranquility and peace also showers they love a good shower then the 3rd race you come across is the derret which are tall ferret looking creatures but since you have 2 of them as workers you see them right from the start.

The story follows Gustav the ghost and former owner of the hotel who lives his days in regrets over how bad he did running the hotel but thanks to some awesome friends and you the player you show him the beauty of the hotel as your transform it and grow it.

This game offers a story mode and sandbox mode and honestly my opinion is do the story mode first you wont regret it one bit, its enjoyable and will make you smile even though ive already come across some people that I despise with a burning passion im sure you will to once you meet them.

For a hotel management game its fun ive lost track of time playing this game and all I wanna do is play more I really would like to see some new species added to the game maybe more story in the form of DLC.

Now the early game is slow and sometimes a bit stressful until your able to hire more workers your stuck with 3 employees which feels like a strain when you start getting busy between crafting the stuff you need making food for guest and just surviving the game feels like you need a lot of workers from the start but soon things get easier and enjoyable.

The game has what you would call a skill tree where you unlock upgrades for new tools and more decorations for your hotel rooms which you will wanna use it helps out.

I think my favorite part is the rating system each guest rates there stay when they check out and it goes against your score so far im holding at a 4.8 score out of 5 but its a lot of work finding the balance to make everyone happy.

If you like cozy management games then this game is for you and if your a fan of studio ghibli then enjoy the game as well the inspiration is enjoyed all in all i definitely recommend this game thank you for stopping by take care and game on

Scrabdackle

First off huge thank you to Jakefriend for sending me a copy of the game to check out its greatly appreciated let’s jump in.

What do you get when you mix a hand drawn cute almost chalk looking game with a souls like spirit you get Scrabdackle. Now I’ll be honest I didnt know this was a souls like when I first got it I thought it was an action rpg but either way ive been having fun playing this game so let me share a bit with you.

Scrabdackle is a cute souls like that follows you the player a wizard who is thrown out literally into the world below your awesome wizard academy. You see all you’ve ever known is the academy so the world outside is completely foreign so its time to get learning.

Your starting area is like a swamp area where you must find your wand which is your only weapon so avoid combat cause you will die, after some initial exploring you find your wand and are ready for this crazy adventure of finding your way back to the academy. This is where the game teaches you the basics how to attack and my favorite how to scan enemies you see you get a spell that scans enemies and in your journal information on said people or monsters is written and it gives you a good amount of info definitely worth scanning everyone your able to.

My favorite part of this game is you have a map yes finally a souls game with a map that let’s you see where you’ve been and what’s left to explore. During this starting phase a lot gets thrown at you so pay extra attention or you might miss something.

The only thing ive come across that I dislike is that you use E to interact and R and F to go up and down on dialog options instead of just being able to use your mouse really dont like this but you get used to it as your playing.

So when you get to your first save point your taking into a dream realm where your sub conscious manifest into your professor yes the game explains why that happens so I wont spoil it. Here is where you will learn a good amount of information about your journey and where other manifestations will appear as your progress so you will wanna come back often as one manifestation tells you where to go and which way to explore.

So the swamp area has a variety of monsters but it leads you to peanut city yes its a small town where you find your first boss encounter and your first shop as well and yes all the npc’s are peanuts which I’ll be honest is so cool and adorable but just from some of the dialog that I read they dont seem to friendly after you buy some stuff and leave you explore further until you find a new enemy the ducks which this area will progress the story.

The game is fun and for a souls like the combat is fluid and easy to learn the bosses are also easy to understand and fight against the world is beautiful and the art style is definitely my favorite part of the game Scrabdackle is a fun experience and definitely hands down a must play for any souls player the game is 14.99 on steam and for this price you have a lot of fun and a great story to understand so if your a souls fan pick this up you wont be sorry thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Magic Forge Tycoon

First off huge thank you to Clever Trickster Studios for sending me a review key to check out there game Magic Forge Tycoon its greatly appreciated so let’s jump in and talk about this.

I hope Clever Trickster studios can forgive me on the late review life got busy for me and I wasnt able to get to this sooner.

So this is a tycoon game where you run your own magical forge the tutorial option is available after you design your emblem and name your forge which that alone is a huge fun boost for me nothing like running my family company into the ground with my choices.

So the tutorial starts you off easy you pick a blueprint you wanna work on and off you go. If you’ve played game dev tycoon then you will feel right at home with this system so after you start the build your greeted with a pop up that has 3 sliders these sliders represent the build its style and the way its forged you get 3 pop ups total each with different sliders and yes its a guessing game at first but the more you build the same item over and over the more information you gain from the build unlocking these green bars under the sliders which are your favorite areas meaning these spots guarantee success in your endeavors but they can still be tweaked to get better scores.

Next is the money aspect after all your running a forge you need an income so the sale screen shows you the kingdoms where you can open up stalls for a price gaining a reputation with that kingdom. This aspect is my favorite part of the game you see your able to tell the kingdoms status by hovering over there name you can see there military power and there wealth and trust me more money means more sales at least thats how I see it.

On the world map you see the kingdoms that are available this is also where you gain special missions from them for special gears or regular gear as well you see completing orders gains you coin and reputation but be careful you see on this screen you will see what kingdoms have issues with each other and which ones are at war and sadly you cant help one kingdom without hurting your status with other kingdoms which sucks im nothing but a humble blacksmith trying to carve out a living but life has other plans for me.

The guild tab let’s you buy other blueprints so you can craft other weapons maces and staffs you have a decent variety and I really like that from this game but watch your money as it spends fast sometimes faster then you can earn. The guild tab also has all the upgrade paths for your forge which is awesome as when your on the forge screen you see whatever upgrades you buy happen in real time these small touches definitely make the game more fun knowing my hard work is paying off.

Yes you can lose the game if you spend to long broke the guild shuts you down and sadly I dishonored my family name in my tutorial run and went bankrupt but you live and learn and get better.

All in all this is a fun cozy game and good time killer and tons to figure out and learn and its definitely worth it the game releases early 2026 on steam so keep an eye out for it and add it to your growing collection thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Street Gods

Leamington Spa, UK – 18th December 2025Soul Assembly today launches Street Gods, a high-impact VR rogue-lite that puts players in control of divine power as they wield the legendary hammer Mjolnir against a city on the brink of Ragnarök. Available now on Meta Quest 3 and 3S, the game blends physical combat, mythic storytelling and run-based progression into a visceral godlike fantasy.


About Street GodsPlayers assume the role of Val, a teenage graffiti artist whose life is upended when the legendary hammer Mjolnir crashes into her city and chooses her as its wielder. With Thor trapped inside the hammer and the nine realms merging into the modern world, hostile forces from the underworld spill into the streets, leaving Val as the only barrier between reality and Ragnarök.



Central to the experience is the Tafl board system which allows players to construct each run by placing fragments of the broken city into a custom path. Every tile represents a distinct section of New York and directly influences enemy encounters, environmental hazards and progression routes. As players advance, the board evolves, introducing corrupt zones, elemental traps and multiple solutions that encourage strategic decision-making and replayability.

Combat is built specifically for VR and emphasises precision, timing and physical intent. Mjolnir offers a range of abilities including charged attacks, stun effects and aerial control, all driven by player movement. As the game progresses, players unlock new combat techniques and enhancements that expand tactical depth and allow for varied playstyles.

In addition to Mjolnir, players gain access to three offhand relics that alter combat dynamics. Gleipnir provides crowd control through whip-based attacks, Svalinn offers defensive and counter capabilities through its shield mechanics and the Duo Hammer enables more aggressive offensive strategies. These are further supported by Runic Blessings which introduce powerful temporary and permanent upgrades that affect both player abilities and weapon behaviour.


The game’s visual direction merges mythological influences with contemporary urban aesthetics, informed by modern street art, animation and music culture. This fusion reinforces the contrast between divine legend and the grounded reality of a fractured modern city.”Street Gods focuses on agency and progression through skill,” said Jim Norris, Lead Game Designer at Soul Assembly. “We wanted players to feel their growth in power through mastery of movement, combat and decision-making, not just through passive upgrades.”Tony Cooper, Associate Lead Designer, added: “Every system in Street Gods was designed to give players ownership over their experience. From how they construct each run to how they combine relics and runes, no two journeys through the game are the same.”Street Gods is available now on Meta Quest 3 and Meta Quest 3S.Discover more at:https://www.streetgodsvr.com/

DAVE THE DIVER ‘In the Jungle’ DLC

DAVE THE DIVER ‘In the Jungle’ DLC Introduces New Gameplay Systems, A new Restaurant, and a Village of Locals for Dave to Win Over 

The latest “Dev Dive” vlog from developer Mintrocket dissects the new systems and mechanics coming to the 10-hour-long DLC, plus a peek at what’s coming for the mobile launch 

SEOUL – 19th December, 2025: Today, DAVE THE DIVER developer Mintrocket shared an all-new “Dev Dive” vlog, reflecting on the last year and sharing some fin-tastic studio updates, including a long-awaited deep-dive into the upcoming “In the Jungle” DLC. 

YouTube Video.

Watch the full “Dev Dive” video here: https://youtu.be/E5_pWDFRca0

Following the gameplay sneak peek as part of November’s Xbox Partner Preview, Mintrocket reveals that the next DLC — the largest story expansion yet — will launch with approximately 10 hours of content. Much of this new adventure introduces fresh, surprising mechanics and systems that branch boldly away from the base game and previous DLCs. 

In “In the Jungle,” Dave heads into freshwater as he embraces new responsibilities and challenges,  including befriending the locals of his and a friend’s new home base: a quaint jungle village brimming with opportunity…and just a splash of danger.

THE VILLAGE

Welcome to Utara, a jungle village where time flows in real-time. Here, Dave can spend his days freely diving underwater, gathering fruits and resources — and, naturally, building relationships with the locals by completing tasks and side quests.

As ever, Dave finds himself surrounded by potential friends (and future customers) whose trust and patronage must be earned. As relationships deepen, so too do the rewards, unlocking new opportunities throughout Utara and creating ripple effects that extend all the way to Bancho’s restaurant business.

THE RESTAURANT

One of “In the Jungle’s” biggest departures from the base game is the introduction of Bancho Grill, a brand-new restaurant in Utara featuring a fully cooked freshwater menu.

Unlike Bancho Sushi, where movement was limited, Dave can now move freely throughout the Grill, serving customers across multiple areas rather than a single horizontal plane. As Dave’s bonds with villagers grow, they’ll begin visiting Bancho Grill as diners, making the restaurant a key hub, and a vital link, between Dave and the village community.

SYSTEMS & MECHANICS

This time around, Dave dives into a massive freshwater lake instead of the Blue Hole — one packed with new aquatic life, unexpected cuisine options, and plenty of lurking danger. New waters demand new tools, and Mintrocket revealed Dave’s latest piece of gear: the Jungle Gun. This versatile weapon can freely transform into net guns, shotguns, snipers, or regular guns, allowing Dave to adapt on the fly and giving players the freedom to experiment with their preferred combat styles.

Combined with a shift from fully horizontal movement to a more free-flowing isometric view, along with real-time progression, Dave will need to carefully balance priorities and make smarter use of space and time. Expect new minigames with friends, jungle-specific adventures, and a wide variety of activities that benefit Bancho Grill, or Utara as a whole.

DAVE THE DIVER MOBILE

Rounding out today’s Dev Dive, Mintrocket also revealed plans to complete Dave’s multi-platform expedition by bringing the game to mobile platforms together with a partner. DAVE THE DIVER on mobile won’t be a simple port — instead, the game will be fully optimized and redesigned to perform seamlessly on mobile. One example shared in the vlog is the ability to tilt mobile devices to pour tea. DAVE THE DIVER will launch on mobile devices first in China, and globally thereafter later in 2026.


DAVE THE DIVER is currently available on PlayStation 4&5, Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S (with support for Xbox Play Anywhere), macOS, and Windows PC via Steam and Epic Games Store. 

DAVE THE DIVER will soon be surfacing in physical form, a true collector’s catch for both PlayStation and Nintendo fans. In partnership with Silver Lining Interactive, the game will receive a full physical edition launch in retail in 2026 for PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch 2. The retail edition will include the full ‘In the Jungle’ DLC expansion. Preorder date and retailer details will be announced soon. Preorders will also be available via Silver Lining Direct.

Codex Mortis

First off a big thanks to GROLAF and CRUNCHFEST for sending me a copy of codex mortis its greatly appreciated let’s dive in.

First off this game according to there steam page is 100% made by A.I and when I saw this i wasnt sure how to feel but I decided to give it a chance and see.

Now this game is a Bullet Hell and lately this has been my favorite genre since it offers so much diversity and replay ability and im familiar with the genre having played a good variety.

The games demo has 2 opened levels a graveyard where the dead are restless and cant sleep and a Christmas level done for the holidays where you gotta kill zombie Santa and a variety of Christmas monsters. And I do mean variety from elfs to gingerbread man to robotic deers there’s a bit of everything.

Now what i dont like about the game is the swarm it starts off at full throttle instead of working its way up so you can get a feel for it and another being you dont get new spells during the run you find scrolls from mini bosses and they may unlock a new benefit but spells have to be found instead of being random rolls you can pick from which is counterintuitive to the whole feel of the genre then there’s objectives you have to do to finish the levels great not bad I like having something to do other then just survive but the arrow indicators are so hard to see once the screen is filled with monsters that it feels like your guessing where to go. Also the game feels like its all board game pieces the way the monsters and character moves.

You will find random treasure spots on the map which give you a chance at getting something my last run I kept getting nothing it was frustrating.

The only thing I really liked was the upgrade system you use the souls from dead enemies as currency to unlock more upgrades to benefit you on your runs as well as more spell slots so your not limited to 4 spells which I think is really cool.

The only negative ive found in the game is a bug where your character starts moving south on his own and you cant regain control unless you quit the game to your desktop ive come across this bug 4 times already I get its a demo so I wont hold it against them but I hope they fix this if there planning on launching this game.

For my first A.i made game im really at a lost for words on some aspects like the Christmas level I feel the colors make things harder to see like your arrow indicators the upgrade system is my favorite part of the whole game I had fun with this demo but I still feel games need to be made by people where they can express there passion an a.i doesn’t have the same passion and love people will anyways thanks for stopping by take care and game on

Flotsam

First off massive thank you to Pajama Llama games for sending me a copy of the game its greatly appreciated, so let’s get into it.

Flotsam is a city builder on a boat in a world over taken by water, yes you read that right your playing a city builder on the water and at the center of it all is your tug boat I mean let’s be real if you’ve plays airborne kingdom or the wandering village this isnt a far stretch.

So thankfully the game has a tutorial and its really well done it teaches you to move and build as well as how to navigate the map and gives you quest along the way so your not bored its really well done and I enjoyed my time with the tutorial. So my first run or my tutorial run to better put it I played 5.5 hours into it and I managed to do a lot until it all crashed and burned let’s dive into more of the game.

The world is over literally the oceans have risen and your boat is your life line so you travel around in search of materials to use and forage the main one being plastic and wood you see the plastic is used to make what’s called floaters which are basically jugs that wont sink and everything in this game takes plastics which sucks cause in my run there was times I couldn’t find any plastic at all, then there’s wood which you will find floating in the ocean or on little islands where you can cut the trees down and use them to make planks or firewood which sadly both are used alot so the struggle is real so you always gotta think about how to spend your wood as it is very valuable.

Then there’s food I mean let’s be real you just survived the end of the world you gotta eat right so let’s find some food thankfully the food variety is plenty as the first you find is seaweed which is turned into a salad or rope but then you move up to the next tier which is fish and around the world there’s plenty of fish I think there’s 3 different types of fish for you to find and cook. Then there’s the next tier which you find old abandoned super markets and grab food there finally the last tier are the farms where you will find potatoes, corn, wheat and more which I haven’t gotten that far yet. So food is solid lots of great options just gotta find it.

The next problem you’ll encounter is storage and housing which you will need lots of both the houses thankfully help with another aspect of the game.

That aspect Morale every survival has a morale compass basically and the happier they are the more productive there gonna be which there’s a lot to learn with the characters you see they level up but they also have there favorite things to do so its good to make sure you have the right people working in the right spots it helps things go smoother.

Now this is where things started going bad for me I had 9 residents and was working on getting electricity going to make some things easier for my people boy was that a bad idea you see the power grid is very volatile if you dont prepare enough for it you see as your town gets bigger it gets heavier making your main vessel waste electricity faster making it harder to find stuff and progress so you gotta build batteries that help you store more energy but thats not the only problem you see there’s buildings that waste the electricity and they drain it faster then you can make it go figure the game does have a few options to produce energy a bike generator a wood burning generator and oil burner and finally solar panels. But again you gotta know how to balance it so you dont screw yourself over.

This game focuses hugely on production and balance one item feeds into several others and so forth. My next run was much better I had less people so food and water could last longer but with less people production is slower cause you need those people to do everything from gathering to crafting to researching so needing more people is a must but again balance is needed.

My play time isnt a huge amount clocking in just over 12 hours ive come to learn that this city builder really pushes your thinking skills to some im sure it will be a cake walk to others they might crash and burn a few times but not once did I rage quit or get angry at the game I wanted more to keep building and finding stuff to make my characters better and give them the home they so desperately want during these trying times, Flotsam takes a page out of other city builders but keeps it going in an original formula a floating city during the end of the world the games graphics are also very relaxed and colorful nothing to over powering or demanding.

There are a few things I would love to see added maybe a way to make our own plastics also I would love to be able to zoom out more and look at the whole map and not just be limited to a certain area also when your not in the tutorial it feels like you struggle a bit finding people and getting the story going I dont know if thats a user error or if its designed that way.

All in all flotsam is a very solid game and you can easily lose yourself playing it easily sinking hours into it so if your looking for a cozy city builder check out flotsam on steam its worth it thank you for stopping by take care and as always game on.

Bellwright

Bellwright the survival game that takes survival very serious but can it be fun though, let’s talk about it.

But first huge thank you to Donkey Crew and Snail Games USA for sending me a copy to check out greatly appreciated.

So I was recently sent bellwright to check out there new content update called the maiden voyage, now my history with survival games is very limited Conan exiles and rust being the ones I had most time in but recently ive played others so I had some confidence going into this game and was hoping for a good time.

Is there a tutorial ima be honest I cant remember so we’re gonna dive into the game so you pick your character and start in some ruins there you have your first mission now the story from the cut scene is your looking for the person’s responsible for your parental figures death you are a child that lived there life in hiding all because you were at the wrong place at the wrong time which we all know how that goes guilty without a doubt throw them in jail and melt the key type drama. But anyways you escaped the harsh times and lived until now where your brought back to your old stomping grounds for answers and God damn it you will get answers.

The first village you stumble upon is called heardean village there your greeted with a cold shoulder from the mayor which after some talking you gotta prove yourself with some missions one being killing a pack of wolves and this brings us into our first foray with the combat system and boy im not a huge fan at all the combat system feels like they ripped it out of for honor you know circle on screen with an arrow pointing to which way your attacking thats how the combat in bellwright is now for the side swings its not bad its the overhead strike thats the issue since your moving your mouse the camera angles get a bit wonky and makes it harder to follow combat against multiple people.

But combat aside you finish the mission and start warming up to him you keep going until finally you are given the freedom with building your own home now this game world is huge the map is huge and there’s a hell of a lot to explore which guess what explore you have to you see its the only way your gonna come across new materials to help you build stuff this is where I wish the game had taught you more cause some stuff you cant find in the wild you gotta kill bandits or find vendors for it other stuff just keep exploring and hope your able to find it.

For example im stuck on a mission where I need to give a person 2 cloves of garlic well everything ive explored doesn’t have garlic and the vendors that ive found have been no help at all but since the main premise of the game is survive and explore well thats what I gotta keep doing.

Each village has a reputation meter that progresses the more you help them out and trust me you will wanna help them out its the only way to recruit the good workers into your settlement.
Now in your settlement your able to build some of the basic stuff but the real good stuff you cant make until you unlock a town hall and guess what for a beginner game that shit is hard to many resources to try and save or find with no luck so research and build what you can cause every bit helps grow your settlement into the illustrious village it will be one day.

Now for the update the maiden voyage dont get me started on this I am no where near the point I can do anything with the update so I’ll come back in the future and talk about it once ive gotten the chance to actually experience it.

The hardest thing ive had to find in the game is food and telling my villagers what to do im still learning on how to control them and my advice go to YouTube look up some videos save yourself the headache which I need to do so I can get them working properly. The food is scarce you have a couple berry bushes that regenerate but the good food comes from wild life your able to trap rabbits for food but they dont give enough sadly wolves are a bit better but the good food comes from the deers which I have not been able to get any from since there so fast and run away from you at first sight. I dont know if there’s better arrows or what but im stuck with the starting gear.

This game has a lot to do and survival is key as you deal with bitter winters and no food supply as well as keeping your people happy so they dont abandon you. At some point I will have to update you guys with more news i only have 9 hours into the game and this is no where near enough to experience the game as its so grand and offers a lot.

If your a fan of survival games with city builder elements then check out bellwright its in 1.0 full release and just got a major content update with maiden voyage I’ll keep you guys posted down the road as I keep playing trying to survive this game thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.
