Clover Pit

Hey everyone hows it going today I wanna talk to you about Clover pit i know im a few months late to the party my apologies, I wanna thank Panik Arcade for sending me a copy of the game its greatly appreciated so let’s go gambling.

Sorry I had to use that line lol after hearing it so much in the game it sticks with you. So Clover pit is a slot machine survival game in my opinion but the games tags on steam call it a rougelite rougelike with psychological horror which I guess I can see it since you die in the game if you cant manage to get the money you need.

So like any slot game your gambling the game doesn’t tell you why your there or what you did only that you need to come up with enough money to pay off the incurred debt which at the start its low so you think it will be easy but your dead wrong as soon as you pay one debt the next is thrown at you higher then before and now the machine charges more for each play which sucks cause if you run out of money or cant pay well prepare for a very long drop into oblivion.
The game has charms that help you out as you progress and so far I have not managed to win theres also a phone where someone offers you modifiers with curses so its not worth it in my opinion. The game reminds me of buckshot roulette a game all about chance.

This game takes loads of luck I have failed over and over again and cant for the life of me get lucky enough to win my freedom.

Is the game worth it absolutely its fun keeps you on your toes and makes you question every move you make in a fun way no stressing no feeling bad for losing this game does a great job of keeping fun vibes and not ruining your mood. All in all its a fun game to play and enjoy again thanks to the devs for sending me a key have a great day and game on

Codex Mortis full game

Hey everyone hows it going today we talk about the full release of codex mortis I played the demo a while back and now we have the full release so let’s talk about it but first thanks to Grolaf and CRUNCHFEST for sending me the game its greatly appreciated.

So to get it out of the way the game is made completely by A.I i wanna stress that since it was stressed to me that the game was a.i made with no human interaction.

So after playing it the full game it hasn’t changed much from the demo the big change is there’s a story mode which will have you surviving on the map running around doing missions while you kill the horde and then there’s a survival mode which plain and simple you survive as long as you can.

Theres a bunch of upgrades in forms of new spells and relics you find from bosses in game then you use the souls from the monsters you kill as currency to upgrade and unlock new stuff.
For the most part its like every other rougelite out there except this one was made by a soulless machine instead of an actual human.

The art style I honestly dislike it so much it feels like stickers are sliding across the screen to attack me and it kills the immersion for me and im sorry it doesn’t matter what type of game im playing I wanna be emersed in it and get lost in the world actually feel like im there and I cant with this game.

The game is what it set out to be another rougelite in the pond of rougelites but the harsh colors the lack of fluidity with movement hell vampire survivor has better movement I dont know what the devs set out to accomplish but this game could have used some human touch

Anyways thanks everyone for stopping by take care and game on.

Grind Survivors

Hello everyone today I wanna talk to you about grind survivors but first huge thank you to Pushka Studios for sending me a copy its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

So Grind Survivors is an action rougelite bullet hell game and does it live up to those tags the game starts you off on a forest level with difficulty 1 you start out the usual you kill enemies gain xp to level up and get more abilities each ability has a chance of evolving and becoming stronger which is a big benefit as your being surrounded, the game also offers alters where you get small stat boost that can make or break a run.

Ive made it to difficulty 3 on the forest I have yet to unlock a new map because honestly the game doesn’t tell you which is bogus cause for the characters and other difficulties it tells you how to unlock them not a fan of that to be honest.

I played on a ps5 and the game played beautifully no lag issues no stutters even when having hundreds of enemies on screen at once the game ran beautifully and you can tell the devs put in a lot of work.

Theres also a skill tree which let’s you increase certain stats with points you get from each run, as well as a forge to make your weapons stronger.

All in all the game does a great job keeping you entertained and making sure your able to survive as you progress i look forward to seeing what else the devs add to the game thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Chickenauts

Hey everyone hows it going? Today we bring you chickenauts but first a massive thank you to sneaky box, kautki cave for sending me a key its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

So what is Chickenauts its a rougelite bullet hell with a story and one thats honestly pretty interesting you see you wake up to some aliens taking your chickens only problem is the aliens are chickens as well so you grab your shotty and venture into there ship to get your flock back. So during my first run I did decent found a survivor from my farm and saved them as well as my first special chicken which made me laugh when I saw who it was. Theres a few special chickens each with there own abilities and names and honestly they really made the game funny for me there’s also other survivors that will like other games help you in your progress.

Now if you have played games like moonlighter or cult of the lamb where you clear rooms thats the style this game uses the waves spawn you fight and survive pick up your loot and move to the next room now in my play time I havent made it to the end ive come across a few chickens that just kill me fast and with only 3 hearts you dont really get to enjoy the run in my opinion.

For a rougelite and bullet hell its not like the standard games where you kill get xp and level up and get new powers here you find a mad scientist chicken that for some reason is helping you and he mutates the chicken thats with you in hopes of surviving longer.

This game has a great take on the genre and playing as a farmer trying to get his flock is just gold as a chicken owner myself I definitely enjoyed my time with this game and cant wait to see what gets added into the game.

Again big thank you to the devs I look forward to future updates thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Cult of the Lamb nintendo switch version

So ive been playing cult of the lamb on the nintendo switch and I gotta say the game has been a total blast.

For those that havent played or heard of it your a lamb thats sacrificed to prevent a great evil from happening except that by sacrificing you your brought face to face with the great evil who gives you power so you can start a new cult and bring him back to life.

Now this game has a lot of aspects from the dungeon crawling to building up the cult you always have something to do in the game and honestly it never gets old, from rituals to feast to building beds for your followers the game let’s you be who you want either good or evil its your choice and your not punished for it.

Now the dungeon aspect of the game I could compare it to moonlighter you have 5 dungeons each one needing to be beaten a few times in order to unlock the next one and so on but you also find people that help you along the way as well as new followers to worship you as you progress keep in mind each door has to be beaten 4 times on the 4th run you reach the final boss destroy him and unlock the chains on the final door but of course people wanna see you fail and will do stuff in order for you to fail.

Keeping your followers happy is huge and can be done between dungeon runs you clean up after them cook them food perform rituals and so one and the fact is your followers are adorable little animals in your lamb kingdom.

Ive never had so much fun with a game ive spent plenty of time just chilling with my followers making things better for them so they in turn can help me with upgrades and progression.

Cult of the lamb offers you a lot to do so your never bored and it runs great on the nintendo switch other then some small lag spikes and some loading times feel a bit longer the switch plays it like a champ and is the perfect handheld for cult of the lamb, there’s also plenty of dlc available which I havent gotten to purchase any as ive wanted to beat the base game so if you want a fun adventure with lots to do check out cult of the lamb its available on all consoles and pc through steam thank you all take care and game on

Raiders of Blackveil

Hello everyone today I wanna talk to you about a fun rougelite thats ive been playing but first huge thank you to Wombo Games for sending me a key to check out there game so let’s dive in.

You may have heard of Raiders of Blackveil it released with a lot of issues but the devs have been hard at work knocking out issues and updating the game as it goes along and I was fortunate enough to get a key to check out there game after there most recent update so I cant talk about its history just its present but let me tell you im having a blast with the game.

So in Raiders you play from a select few characters trying to take down an evil corporation thats destroying everything around so each raid is where the fun starts you spawn on a sweet ship where its your home base there you have a variety of characters that help you on your missions from Muriel who helps you craft skills to Belmont who’s the merchant where you can buy and sell gear to my favorite the smugglar who will greet you every few levels and give you a chance on getting the best gear out of the game safely even if you die then there’s the big boss Atlas who helps upgrade the world maps so you can find better stuff for your runs and trust me the upgrades are worth it.

Right now there’s only 4 playable characters but from the character screen they plan for 12 which is gonna be awesome cause it adds so much variety to the game im guessing there’s multiplayer since your able to join or host your own games idk I havent been able to try it out being a solo player.

Then there’s 2 raid maps a meat factory and a harvest operation both maps have different enemies and offer there own unique experiences you also get a stash chest with 4 tabs for storing everything you get from raids and yes the chest is accessible across all characters so you dont have to worry about earning loot all over again for a new character run.

The games a rougelite its fun after each floor you pick how you progress there’s floors that grant you perks while others give you money or gear for clearing them you will also find floors with mini bosses and elite enemies you pass through over 20 stages before you go head to head with the boss and man did I get my ass kicked over and over until I finally was able to beat the boss for the meat factory at which point you get the choice to continue forward or extract back to the ship with your goodies.

This game has its own unique feeling between extraction and rougelite gameplay and its worth every bit of action you experience. I cant speak for the history of the game but for the present the game is awesome im having fun even with minimal lag spikes the game plays amazing and I cant wait to see what’s next between new maps and characters i wanna see what the devs at wombo have in store so dont be scared check out Raiders of blackveil and enjoy thank you for stopping by take care and game on.

Cursed Blood

Hey everyone hows it going today we are gonna talk about Cursed Blood a brutal gore filled action rougelike but first huge thank you to David Marquardt Studios for sending me a code to check out this beauty so let’s dive in.

Cursed Blood is about a shrine that used to balance the world by way of blood sacrifices but the old people died out and the shrine lay waiting for its next sacrifice now the corruption of the world along with its greed has thrown the balance out of whack and this is where we the player come in as we must fight and restore the balance by the way of Blood and trust me Blood it will be.

So you get to play as 1 of 4 vengeful Samurai Apes fueled by the rage of the shrine best part you dont have to go alone you see Cursed Blood is also a co op game for up to 4 players so grab your group of friends and let the chaos flow.

Now the game is a top down view like other rougelikes but plays a bit more similar in action to something like path of exile giving off the rpg vibes so you do have the rougelike aspects you find shrine buffs and you get to pick one theres also curses in this game that hinder you at certain shrines so every choice counts.

My favorite part of the game is the gore the Blood covering your screen during combat as well as the slicing enemies in half or into pieces you can also sneak up on them and do take downs since the game does have stealth.

This game has huge potential and I for one cant wait for its release in April so keep an eye out for this gem cause if you like action hack and slash some awesome gore and wanna play a kick ass ape samurai this is the game for you thanks for stopping by take care and game on

Brotato Switch Version

What do you get when a game has over 20 characters to unlock, tons of weapon combinations, hundreds of items, and tons of replay ability? you get brotato the bullet hell game thats literal hell let’s dive in.

So I never played brotato before but it was on sale for the nintendo switch and decided to give it a chance after hearing it mentioned in a video a few times and im glad I gave it a chance the game is so much fun and has so much to offer that no 2 runs are the same no matter how hard you try.

So the game gives you 6 levels of difficulty to unlock you start at level 0 and move up after beating it, unlike other bullet hell games where you only get 4 weapons or spells brotato let’s you pick 6 and you can combine them to make them stronger emptying out spaces for new weapons to take there place so trust me when I say the combinations are in the hundreds most likely you have weapons from guns to clubs to even a rocket launcher and a wand so the game isnt lacking at all.

Now if you want your runs to be even more difficult then choose a character any character other then the basic guy each character has one or 2 positives with a few handicaps to follow and boy do they make the game tough on you.

It took me 8 runs before I was able to beat the boss he was a pain in the ass not only are you trying to kill him but your also killing the other mobs while dodging for your life, speaking of dodging there’s no dash in this game at least not that im able to find on the switch version and ive looked it up online dont know how accurate the info is but yeah no dash which makes boss battles that more intense.

I love everything ive experienced so far from this game the vast character selection the multiple weapon combos it reminds me why ive fallen in love with bullet hell games there easy to pick up your able to pause then if life or kids need you and the replay ability is astronomical I enjoyed the game so much I bought the switch and a ps4 copy of the game. The game plays amazing on the switch its the perfect time killer game and having the switch in handheld mode it runs flawlessly and playing it on a TV just adds to the enjoyment.

So if you like bullet hell games rougelites in general then brotato is for you yes the game is old its been out for years but its worth the pick up also has some dlc to it adding new content which I’ll pick up at a later date.

But thats all for now I highly recommend this game guys thank you for stopping by take care and game on.

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

Moonlighter Rock Dungeon nintendo switch version

Hello everyone today we talk about moonlighter now this game has been out for a while but I recently bought it for my Nintendo switch and I’ve been having fun with it let’s talk.

In moonlighter your character is an explorer at night when the dungeon is open and a shop keeper by day why the dungeon is only open at night I have no clue but thats how the game has it designed.

So the game starts you off in a tutorial run you meet an old man from your village that basically begs you to not do dungeon runs as your grandfather died in the dungeons but you refuse to listen and play on after you complete the tutorial run our friendly old man gives you your first real weapon a sword and shield to help you against the rocky foes of the first dungeon. Yes you read that right first dungeon as there’s a total of 5 that you progress through sadly im not that far yet.

So your dungeon runs consist of you clearing out rooms until you find the floor bosses hidden chamber trust me there’s a lot of rooms to explore sadly you gotta be mindful as your bag only holds 20 different items and you fill up on space real quick ive learned this the hard way. But you will know when you are close to the boss as the anti chamber room is a giant magical pool that heals you and trust me healing you will need.

After your runs if you make it out you return to your store there you can put the items you just plundered for sale so you can earn yourself some coin and trust me coin you will need. You see your the sole income to your village and its thanks to you that the town will grow as you are responsible for bringing in new shops which you will desperately need.

The first shop you bring in is the blacksmith which you will need to upgrade your weapons craft new weapons and craft new armor as well everything you need cause the monsters hit hard and sadly healing potions only do so much.
The next shop is the alchemist shop this is where you will discover all types of potions and buffs to help your runs and every little bit helps.

Some of the rock monsters are annoying but you can beat them some require some environmental usage to beat them but the floor boss is in a league of his own he hits hard and has a health bar that fits right at home with any souls game just not that hard to attack.

The rock dungeon is made up of 3 floors with the 3rd floor giving you a nice gift that makes exploring that much easier at the cost of money of course.

The game has a lot to offer and you definitely have fun im glad I picked this up for my Nintendo switch it fits right at home on this console I’ll be working my way through the game so I’ll keep you posted when I beat the next dungeon take care everyone and game on.
