Review for Choice of the Vampire
15 Oct 2013
This game isn't terribly engaging. Also, though I suspect it isn't the author's intent, it's fairly racist. Boo hiss.

Guys, this is some really excellent satire.
Review for The Facility: Chapter One.
03 Oct 2013
So I'm a sucker for the premise of "you're in an unknown facility, you must escape," but OMG quit railroading! Add more choices! And don't make it so bleeding obvious which choices are the right ones!
Review for Final Hours
03 Oct 2013
This game railroads the player; even the choices (which are rare) feel like tired tropes. Well-worn setting offers nothing original: no emotional investment and no fun.
Review for Paradox
03 Oct 2013
Pros: Nicely done little game that loops back on itself. Multiple playthroughs are rewarded. Worth a go if you're looking for short, surreal ] adventures.
Cons: Writing could be smoother, needs edits; descriptions, in particular, are neither sparse nor vivid. Spelling and grammar errors distract from the game text.

Review for Destroy / Wait
03 Oct 2013
Agree with Froga; nicely done. Short little game, sparse, bare bones, can be played a couple of times. Thought-provoking.
Review for Next Door Taker
03 Oct 2013
This game sometimes feels like it's railroading you; too many descriptive pages without a choice to make. That said, the choices you do make feel interesting, nuanced and subtle. And the writing is beautiful.
Review for Choice of Romance: Affairs of the Court
22 Sep 2013
Eh, okay. Very well-made, technically; very customizable, the writers obviously put a lot of work in in that regard. Still, for a romantic game, there were very few wrenching emotional moments; plotlines seemed pat and predictable.
Review for Heroes Rise: The Hero Project
22 Sep 2013
Nicely done! Emotionally appealing , made with passion. Ends on a cliffhanger, sadly.
Review for You are Snow 1935
18 Sep 2013
Daring portrait of an emotionally abusive relationship. Excellent atmosphere. Short game, very much worth a playthrough.
