Aug 22 18:56:00 Under a Watchful Eye i couldn't quite grasp the strategy here. in first-person view, it's quite difficult to run somewhere while dodging/hiding from instant death behind you. it's unfortunate, too, because i did just run backwards to watch the thing's reaction and it's really quite ominous, peeking over your hiding spots staring at you with a laser eye. i loved that.
Aug 22 19:39:00 43m 00s Hell Fortress Escape i love these kinds of games and the art style is awesome. there are some just annoying mechanics, though. there are a couple of room where if you walk into them you will likely just immediately die from having held the 'walk forward' key. and more frustrating was that grabbing a rope was pressing up instead of holding up.
Aug 23 02:54:00 7h 15m Block Faker so i tried to escape multiple times but after multiple levels of being hunted would eventually get caught. if there's supposed to be more to it, i didn't really have the patience to sit through to find it. i tried playing different sequel games with the same results. i give up!
Aug 23 04:21:00 1h 27m Ceaseless This would have been way more mesmerizing with some kind of hypno-toad tones! Very easy to just mindlessly play for long periods of time even as it is.
Aug 23 04:43:00 22m 00s Stuff From the Past Luring bloodthirsty cavemen into pits was far more satisfying than hacking at them.
Aug 23 05:07:00 24m 00s The Escape I just adore games like this.
Aug 23 05:27:00 20m 00s Aphelion Incident This was pretty fun. I would have loved for the thought-reading to be important in my escape, though.
Aug 23 06:24:00 57m 00s Bomber Planet It was at once powerfully nostalgic and meandering. All it'd need is a new ability or two or a different enemy. Also I was annoyed at not being able to kill some of the tougher enemies because they'd eventually wander offscreen into some other part of the map and disappear or get stuck in rocks and water. <br/> <br/>I did play through to the end and enjoyed it, nonetheless. And I'd do it again.
Aug 23 19:05:00 12h 41m Escape From Emag Castle This was cute. Nostalgic a bit of finding secret places in very old Final Fantasies. At first I was annoyed that the text boxes didn't freeze enemies and they'd wail on me until I realized what was actually occurring and it made sense that I'd be getting hit while people talked at me.
Aug 23 21:59:00 2h 54m Bountyhunted! Ha ha, Langdell. Satisfying.
Aug 25 02:54:00 28h 55m Escape or Die JUMP JUMP SLICE
Aug 25 03:07:00 13m 00s escape.swf Haha, I loved this. Perfect sound effects.
