It’s a game about a guy who becomes a wolf sometimes.

I’ve never seen quick-time events more fun than in Telltale’s games. The Wolf Among Us is one of my favourite Telltale games, and if you like story-based, “choices matter” quick-time-event-heavy games like this, this game is for you.

This is a cute game with fun gameplay, but that’s all it is. The voice acting for the little girl the narrator is reading a story to is good, but the voice acting of the other characters, especially the narrator himself, is not good. The narrator has little emotion in his voice and speaks with long, unnatural pauses between words, as if he’s slowly reading the words on a script rather than actually reading his child a bedtime story.

The story is mediocre. While it is cute, it’s not engaging or exciting. There are no plot twists or even any interesting events in the story. This is the story of the main character, whose name is unknown, finding his uncle, Fred, in a mystical land, and that’s about it.

While the levels look pretty, they are still really bland. Other than grappling from point A to B, there’s nothing to do aside from collecting five collectables in each level, and the collectables aren’t that well-hidden either. Most of the levels look the same and don’t offer room for exploration. Most of the achievements are way too difficult and frustrating to unlock, and the game offers barely any replay value other than simply trying to unlock the achievements and beating your own times in the Time Trial mode.

The character models look anywhere from pretty bad to downright terrifying. The character animations aren’t anything to write home about either. As for the controls, it’s definitely a tonne of fun to grapple around like Spider-Man, and the game offers a nice variety of moves quite early on, but charging up your super jump or super leap takes a little over a second, so the gameplay doesn’t feel as smooth and quick as it could’ve. I don’t see a reason to have such a long charge-up time. Why can’t you just super leap or super jump by pressing right-click or holding it while sprinting, without having to wait?

Despite all the flaws, I still recommend the game. It’s often on sale; as of writing this review, the game is −80% off, costing only $2.59, and it’s also been −85% off, costing only $1.94, on multiple occassions. When it has a great sale like this, I definitely recommend picking up. You won’t be invested in the story or characters, but the base gameplay is definitely something that will take your mind off things for a while.

If you’re wondering how long the game lasts, it took two and a half hours to beat the game for me. For you, it might take 80 minutes if you're rushing and not caring about the collectables, and if you do care about the collectables, the main story might take four hours to beat. Additionally, you can spend a long time trying to unlock all the achievements, if that's your thing. However, I personally only got one achievement.

• Story – Cute but uninteresting.
  
• Graphics – Seeing as how this is an indie game that’s four and a half years old, don’t expect crepuscular rays, high fidelity, and other marks of beautiful graphics. The game looks basic, but it doesn’t look bad. The environments are pretty to look at, and the lighting isn’t half-bad either.
  
• Aesthetics – Pretty environments but bland levels and poor character models.
  
• Replay value – Not much replay value aside from collecting all the collectables, beating your own time in Time Trial, and unlocking the achievements.
  
• Controls – The controls are pretty tight, although the charge-up time to do super jumps and super leaps feels unnecessary and only slows your gameplay down. Other than that, grappling around each level is fast, fun, and easy to pull off.
  
• Gameplay – The gameplay is the most important part of A Story About My Uncle. The grapple element, along with the rocket boots, are the core elements of this game, and it pulls them off really well.

I give this game a 6.8/10. Pick it up when it’s on sale, and you’ll have fun for a good few hours.

Great game, but it doesn’t have DualShock 4 icons when using a PS4 controller, which makes the game borderline unplayable for me.

Rexaura brings fun and challenging chambers to Portal.

If you’re looking for a challenge, this mod is for you. It’s free, so you’ve got nothing to lose.
This is undoubtedly my favourite Portal mod!

It’s a unique 2D platformer, but it gets boring quickly. The humour in this game is rather off-putting, and controlling your character with a keyboard instead of a controller is a bit wonky and tedious.

Get this silly-named game if it’s on sale, but it’s not worth $15, in my opinion.

Who would’ve thought a port of a mobile game would’ve been this good?

I played this on my iPad years ago and have been wanting to play it again for years. I finally found the game again and instantly bought the Deluxe version on Steam! I haven’t played it on PC that much, but I hope you can take my word for it when I say that this is an absolutely astonishing game.

It’s an interesting and unique stealth and cyberpunk game featuring a badass female protagonist. It has gameplay and story elements that I’ve never seen in a game before, and the remastered graphics are astonishing, even by today’s standards.

République (titled without an accent over the “e” on Steam, for whatever reason) is a very special stealth game that you might love even if you’re not a big fan of the stealth genre. The gameplay doesn’t get stale throughout the game; it’s exciting and as slow- or fast-paced as you want it to be.

Every single episode comes with the game. There is no gameplay content as paid DLC like certain other games (*cough* Hitman), although I wouldn’t buying a sixth episode!

This game features humour for preteens and modes that get boring quickly.

Also, the microtransactions are unfair and manipulative. Don’t get into this game if you value your sanity and wallet.

While it’s a crappy port with crappy third-party DRM, there are elements of the game that are bad as well. It’s not just a bad port.

The combat is bad, and I’m not a fan of the story or the main character.

Just go for GTA V. You can play GTA: San Andreas, if you want. That game is pretty good. Also, just some advice for you: Don’t get into GTA V’s GTA Online, because you’re going to regret it if you do. GTA V is microtransaction Hell full of cheaters and repetitive gameplay, yet it takes forever to get into a match, for some reason.

This is like GTA V but with a worse story, worse gunplay, worse driving, a worse world, and so on.

It’s fun to blow sh$t up for a while, but it gets boring quickly.

This game is very different to the first two BioShock games. It feels more like a first-person shooter than an RPG.

Despite this, it is still a great game. If you’re an FPS fan who didn’t like BioShock or BioShock 2, you might like this game.

I don’t feel like the move to more first-person shooter-oriented gameplay did the game any injustice. The game is still story-rich and has many elements from the first two games.

If you loved the first two games, you’ll probably love this game. This is a must-play for any gamer!
