Think Wall-e with Luc Besson's Big Blue as the theme. Wonderful game; brilliantly done. I love playing this through multiple time just for the atmosphere and the silent moviesque story, and the music just enhances the entire experience.

A very enjoyable game from the outset. Granted it has the odd bug here and there, but these are being seen to with each update.

What makes this game a gem for me is how the interaction between factions and the environment constantly change with everything you do to help progress the main story, and I find myself chopping and changing my loyalty between them afterwards as I find aspects of each faction likeable.

The music blends brilliantly with the island world and adds to the immersion.

I first became interested in this game when I heard 65daysofstatic were going to be creating the music for it; a band I have been a fan of for several years.

I loosely followed the news about the game development and the possibilities it was hoping to achieve, but what I didn't do was turn into a digital sheep, follow blindly, and take everything as written-in-stone absolute truth, because everyone has grand plans but as everyone should know, plans always trip up somewhere along the way.

So moving on to post game release and the vitriol of the masses, I fell into the category of the few who actually liked the game for what it was; for what I saw it to be - an innovative exploration game with large potential, and nothing more.

Maybe the idea/concept was a little too large for a small indie games developer, and yes, they could've done better with the PR, but for the most part they pulled it off in my opinion, and from what I have seen of the recent Foundation Update I think a lot more great things are afoot.

Two updates on and all I can do is drool in awe over the improvements that have been introduced into both 1.2 and 13 (especially 1.3). A year old and this game just keeps getting better and better. I can't help feel that 1.3 was what HG envisioned for their initial release, but the wait has been well worth it.

May the next updates be as good as the last!

The game that just keeps giving...

One of the most enjoyable Diablo clones I've played, with a good storyline, good graphics, and plenty of character build/development choices - now made even better with the new AoM expansion!

Think of this as a piece of interactive fractal art rather than a game, and the controller/mouse as a paint brush. The way you interact with the surroundings determines the way your creature/organism looks.

It's a beautiful little game, ideal for those who just want something casual to relax to coupled with stunning visual and sound. There are no real goals, just different ways to create different creature forms.

A brilliant homage to one of my favourite classic games from way back. I still play EV Nova now and again, but I can safely say this will be my EV fix go-to game now, with it's cleaner graphics and neat little additional features, like trading price comparisons of visited ports, and space port locations and available ships.

TDU2 meets NFSU2.

In my opinion this is exactly how the NFS series should have gone after Underground 2.

This game has a huge amount of similarities to Bethesda's Skyrim / Oblivion and Bioware's SWTOR / Mass Effect in my opinion, with familiar voice actors from these games, and a crafting system that seems like a mashup of all the games' systems (I really like the crafting system). The storylines have a distinct Bethesda feel to them, and the graphics and music have the recognisable Bioware signatures

Overall this is a really great game with well written storylines, stunning graphics, beautiful music, very nice voice acting, and hundreds of hours of playtime. The DLC's are equally as great.

An awsome little platform game, beautifully designed with an equally awesome soundtrack by Solar Fields
