Oct 4 16:44:44 Mediterranean Smuggling ♥ 2 Reminded me of Papers, Please in a good way; the game systems push me to overfill my boats and recreate the same tragedies that happen in real life.
Oct 13 17:40:19 216h 55m The Crater Village Game ♥ 1 Thanks for sharing this! I told a story about a village with strong religious ties to a central (but distant church), that struggled when an outcast joined the village as a productive member. Overall: I had fun, thanks! Feedback: There are lots of events in the deck, but as the storyteller I felt sometimes like I was wrestling them into telling a cohesive or thematic story. I wished for something like: a cycle in the game where I reflect on how the village has changed; or stronger theming to the cards (they're *all* about how missionaries interact with the village); or 1-2 mechanic reflecting how prosperous the village is and how it views outsiders (for instance).
Oct 13 19:50:32 2h 10m Space Inserters ♥ 1 For some reason, the white background kept flickering for me--made it very hard to play without getting a headache. :( Very nice game, though! I'm sad I couldn't play more. Is there guaranteed to be a solution for each level? Some of the infinite mode levels were real head-scratchers.
Oct 15 15:51:16 44h 00m Urban Jungle ♥ 2 I also had some issues where my mouse clicks were being detected with an offset; resizing my browser window made the game resize itself and I was able to play fine. Cute, fun, "cosy" puzzle game. I'm not sure I mastered it--I guess some plants just "like" to be next to some other plants?
Oct 15 16:04:24 13m 08s Space, Ltd. ♥ 1 Gameplay was fine; I also had a lot of trouble with click detection, unfortunately; couldn't get small suitcases to stack, couldn't drag things onto the floor even when there was room. Unpacked my first shelf, dragged it to the floor, then couldn't drag the second shelf at all.
Oct 18 14:51:31 70h 47m Prison escape ♥ 0 Short, simple, but amusing text-adventure game. I chuckled. Thanks for sharing!
