<\/a><\/p>\nHey, \u2019member running across the Green Hill Zone? \u2019Member beating Dr. Robotnik\u2019s giant robot? \u2018Member the jamming tunes of the Hydrocity Zone? Oh, I \u2018member! Sonic Mania offered just the right amount of member berries but still managed to keep it fresh. It featured familiar elements and brought a lot of new content for gamers to enjoy. Sonic Mania was the Sonic game the fans deserved and the one they needed.<\/p>\n

Megaman Legacy Collection 2<\/b><\/p>\n
Megaman Legacy Collection 2 made it finally possible for a PC owner to check out the missed Megaman 9 and Megaman 10 sequels to the classic series while the other bundled games: Megaman 7 and Megaman 8 served as positive surprises as well for those they were unknown to. While the ninth and tenth iterations aren\u2019t as good as the games media led to believe they still do tap into that ancient and primitive Megaman instinct and the simple and pure satisfaction that follows while still adding fresh elements and surprises. PC owners waited for their versions for years and now they\u2019re here! Megaman 9 and 10 force you to rethink your attitudes towards the pompous and often overly complicated game design of modern videogames and ask yourself the question what are you really looking for in an \u00a0entertaining game?<\/p>\n – Ville<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Tales from the Loop<\/b><\/p>\n Picture \u00a9 Simon St\u00e5lenhag<\/p>\n Tales from the Loop<\/i>, subtitled \u201croleplaying in the 80\u2019s that never was\u201d, is a refreshingly original game from the Swedish Fria Ligan. Funded on Kickstarter and actually delivered on time, it presents a lightweight, elegant system for playing out the adventures of kids in the spirit of E.T.<\/i>, The Goonies<\/i>, or Stranger Things<\/i>. The game truly shines in its presentation of the default setting on the islands of M\u00e4laren, a very different world from the Americana we\u2019re usually sold. The game is based on the art of Simon St\u00e5lenhag, whose evocative images set incongruous science fictional elements in everyday scenes of 1980\u2019s rural Sweden, complete with Saab police cars and Esso service stations. It\u2019s simple, original, and has one of the most beautiful rulebooks I\u2019ve ever seen.<\/p>\n – Jukka<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Doki-doki Literature Club<\/b><\/p>\n Definitely Doki-doki Literature Club<\/a> (or DDLC to those who have already gone deep into its lore). DDLC is one of those indie games that breaks apart from a mold\/format – visual novels in this case, and gives the player something more than expected. It is not a game that you would expect to have the widest appeal across the gameosphere (read: visual novel tropes<\/a>), but for the things it set out to do (disclosing too much would be spoiling the game 😔 BUT WHY NOT EXPERIENCE IT YOURSELF) – the effort that Team Salvato put in definitely yielded positive results, and the game has already established a solid fan base. One of the plus point for me is how it gives you a glimpse of how mind and reality bending games can be nowadays; and how the team designed something that so elegantly makes its’ players look forward to 2018. Now if they can just sustain the interest…<\/p>\n -Nyx.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Now that the year 2017 has passed into history, its time to welcome the new year and the wonderful games it will bring.
