Star Wars KOTOR 2-The Sith Lords differs from the first game in its very premise.

Portal on Steam

Before you jump in, I have to warn you that this review is for the people who already beat Portal. I’m going to spice things up a bit since this game is far past its prime. If for some reason, you were living in a cave or you never jumped on the bandwagon, then this review will contain some major spoilers.

STAR WARS – KOTOR on Steam

Written by Paul Gestl

Developer: BioWare
Publisher: LucasArts, Disney
Released on Nov 19, 2003

In BioWare RPGs, the setting is crucial to the player’s enjoyment of their franchises. The player may control their choices, but the world they play around in follows a strictly linear plot. Inspired by the comic books, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic takes place 4,000 years before the movies, in the same “galaxy far far away.”

Genre: An Adventure RPG

Mainland Review

Mainland

A Simple Text Adventure Game

Developer: Vasily Voronkov, Ryan Joseph, Peter Kosyh
Publisher: Instead Community

Released on May 8, 2015

Mainland is an interactive text storybook adventure set in the 19th century. After a closer look, I’m more convinced that it is not actually a game but rather a fictional novel where you type commands into the text box to generate a specific action.

You control an explorer who was shipwrecked on an unknown island, being the sole survivor of a plague that killed both the captain and crew. The narrative is told in 1st person from his perspective as you progress through the entries written in his diary.

Genre: Free-to-play Indie Game

Chocolatier III: Decadence by Design

Developer: Big Splash Games

One year ago, I discovered the Chocolatier series that belonged in the genre of business and time management games, sharing similarities with the tycoon games where you would build your own business from the ground up into a wealthy empire. In this one, you will be distributing chocolate confections all across the world to seek out new ingredients and recipes.

Genre: Business Simulation
