Ys IX: Monstrum Nox Review
Time to dive into Ys IX: Monstrum Nox, which was developed by Nihon Falcom and published by NIS America and released on PC on 6 July 2021. Are you guys ready for this one? After the amazing experience I had with Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of DANA (which I also reviewed right here: LINK), my expectations were really high this time!Once again, we’re back with Adol Christin, the red-haired adventurer. This time, he arrives in the city of Balduq… and gets arrested right away. Not a great start, huh? But quite interesting, at least for me...But things became even more crazy, a mysterious woman named Aprilis gives him
Bendy: Lone Wolf Review
From the delightful minds at Joey Drew Studios comes yet another title following up the Bendy and the Inky Machine IP. In an interesting departure from what most come to expect (a first person adventure they have become known for), Bendy: Lone Wolf follows Boris and his daily grind. And make no mistake: "Every Day is a Challenge". In a Top-Down Rougelike Hack-and-Slash, the formula is something that may cater to a different audience that the original IP. I was more than eager to step into Boris' shoes while he roamed the studio, so I dove in head-first.Keep your eyes out
Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana
Do you like anime? RPGs? Actually, it doesn't matter, you can still love the game even if you're not an anime fan. So here we are, it's time for a JRPG! Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana is not a new game, it was developed by Nihon Falcom and published by NIS America, Inc., and it was released on April 16, 2018.The story starts with Adol Christin, a red-haired adventurer who finds himself shipwrecked on a mysterious island called the Isle of Seiren. He’s not alone, they are other survivors from the ship around the island, and together they try to build
The RPG Review
Eager to try my hand at something outside of my usual realm, I caught wind of what is self-described as "Minimalistic Skyrim + West of Loathing + Supraland". Toss all that in a pickle jar, shake it up, and you're left with The RPG: A game that takes ...well. Nothing all too seriously. Developed by Dionysus Acroreites, this looks to be the first title they've put out. And honestly, a fairly entertaining one, at that! With a bright and colorful pallete, as well as a very cartoonish visual style, its a unique and memorable (though somewhat short) game- though that isn't
Hell Clock Review
HellClock is a gorgeous dark fantasy retelling of the late 19th century War of Canudos brought to life by Brazillian dev team Rogue Snail. Dive into the depths of Purgatory, and take a glimpse into the demons of Brazil's Past, Present, and Future. Race against the clock, see how deep you can go, and don't worry if time runs out. You'll just keep coming back in usual roguelike fashion. Showcasing fantastic music and absolutely stunning visual style, let's take a closer look at what has quickly become one of my favourite games of the year.A very minimal, sleek and clean UI

I don't think there's much of a story. You simply enter a dungeon, complete the objective, leave, and then move on to the next dungeon. The cycle just repeats over and over again drift hunters.

@phrazle Ok That's comes with the game, the Season Pass, a Steelbook case, and an R/C Coon Mobile that you can control with your phone or tablet just to annoy the hell out of your friends. And no, I'm not joking. I'm DEAD serious.

I know for a fact there are at least 2 game modes though.
There is payload and capture the point
SilverKurumi replied to HypnoticSilence September 26, 2016There's only one Game mode. Payload and Capture the Point are mixed as one hybrid game mode.
DjGus_PT October 02, 2016After patch 34, pure payload is now available to play, and a "new" champ added, along with skins, voice packs, etc etc etc
SilverKurumi replied to DjGus_PT October 08, 2016Yeah, I played it, Payload is a lot more fun.
Still gonna wait on a re-review when the game is off beta tho

Game has a lot of things in it to like ,but i'm not a fan of micro crafting and survival . Hope it's gonna be possible to still enjoy the story and other stuff in the final release without getting too bogged down in the bits i don't like.

Update:
An old batch of keys has become unstable, and we're working through them with customers as we speak. We're switching to a more reliable source, so key validity should improve in the coming days.
Thank you, everyone, for your patience and understanding as we trying to improve key stability.September 23, 2026 -

I was luck too, being able to snag it before it went missing! A few others as well, I'll eventually get to.
Thanks for taking the time to comment, and thanks for the link! I'll absolutely give it a look!August 20, 2026 -

From what I've read, it doesn't sound like it's a hugely different experience from the original anyhow.
I mainly specified because that's the version I played.
You could probably aim for one episode at a time to keep things fresh in between other gaming goals and also as a way not to torture yourself by tackling all of Nightmare mode at once.That's one reason I was happy to have played on Luna - no achievements! So I don't feel compelled to go back and do that... I just glance at it occasionally as I'm scrolling... Should I? Eh... It's okay.
It does sound like a fun challenge, but I have other things to play. Like the sequel.August 05, 2026
