  2. #Mixtape < a giant abyss < #Dispatch

    IGN scores are just a joke. They gave 9 to Dispatch, and 6 to #CrimsonDesert.

    Sorry but their scores mean nothing, and are meant to create rage content around.

  9. CW: Video Game review - The Séance of Blake Manor

    Solid puzzle game, where you've been hired to investigate a missing woman at a séance held at a remote manor in the Irish moorlands

    It's a first person point and click mystery, where you investigate the people in the manor. Partially voiced, it has some excellent voice acting, and presented in a pulp comic book drawn style.

    There's a 'time' mechanic involved which lets you spend a 'minute' at a time to do a particular investigation/conversation, and you have effectively two days to fully solve the mystery.

    Travel does not cost time, nor does revisiting previously investigated points, so you're not punished for reviewing info.

    You investigate the guests/staff at the manor and form hypothesis about their reasoning for their presence at this séance, attend lectures, research in the library, get lost in the hedge maze, and ultimately save as many people as you can before the end of the game.

    It took me 18hrs to finish, and I took my time, and there were occasional moments where I was truly at a loss of what to do next, but for the most part, I highly enjoyed this mystery.

    It's spooky but not scary, and an excellent Halloween game, filled with a broad variety of guests and staff, who all have their own agenda around this séance

  11. Dfiance Review: A Unique Tactical Card Game Experience

    Disclaimer

    I was sent some free in-game currency to review Dfiance for my blog. While I am very grateful for the opportunity, I won’t let it sway my opinions. This will be my honest review.

    Shameless Self-Promotion

    If you’re looking for a way to upgrade your aesthetic, check out my latest reviews for the Epomaker TH85, Epomaker HE68 Mag, Cypher81 or the KiiBoom Moonshadow V2.

It really helps me out if you do. If you’re looking for a VPN for some added protection, check out NordVPN through my affiliate link. You can also always buy me coffee!

    What is Dfiance?

    Dfiance is a free-to-play pvp tactical cardgame out now on steam.

    Choose one of three unique factions as you command a battlefield of powerful allies in your quest for conquest. Dominate your enemies by strategically placing your enemies your enemies in a way that gives you the advantage. What faction will you choose? How far up the ladder can you climb?

    Gameplay

    Dfiance reminds me of Gwent, with a few extra steps. Players build a deck based on their favorite faction and try to build synergy through their interactions. All players start with the same three starter decks and can use currency they earn by playing the game to buy more cards. There is a ranked and casual mode for pvp and an AI mode for those who want to practice.

    The game itself requires some unique strategy. I recommend looking up videos on YouTube after finishing the tutorial because there are some mechanics and nuances that aren’t very intuitive, especially when it comes to the upgrade system. I recommend checking out the game’s official YouTube page. Players essentially take turns placing units on the battlefield. The battlefield is split into four sections, two flanks, a frontline, and a backline. Each card has a cost, and players must navigate the game’s unique mana system efficiently to earn the most points before the end of the game. Some cards have effects that create unique interactions with other cards on the board, (their own or the opponents). Its a unique game that makes more sense the more you play it.

    Review

    Dfiance game that you need to stick with past the initial slump. The game does not have enough of a player base for consistent fair matchmaking, so new players will have a hard time with all the loses. Others will take issue with how different the gameplay loop is, especially when compared when coming from one of the big three TCGs. It took me a couple of hours before the gameplay was able to click and I was able to enjoy the game. So what do I think? Let me start with the good.

    The game will draw players with its flavor and art. The game looks fantastic! The battlefield gave me the impression that I was commanding a powerful army, even though I lacked the skill to do so. The art on the cards is beautiful, especially if you are fan of fantasy. I love how each faction looks and feels different. I enjoyed looking through each card and appreciate the amount of flavor that went into each faction.

    The game itself runs great. I never encountered noticeable performance issues. The game is in a good place, but it needs more players. A lot of my matches did feel unfair. There is some skill issue that needs to be factored into this as well, but I was at a clear disadvantage trying to climb the ladder with the starter decks. The starter decks are fine for teaching players the fundamentals, but they’re missing a few key mechanics that will win you games. Again, this could be a skill issue.

    Players can upgrade their decks or their existing cards by buying packs., but it does feel like a grind to do so. I don’t know how I feel about game’s monetization. On one hand, it is nice that there seems to be a limit to keep the whales from running away from the game, on the other, the free-to-play grind feels a little steep. Again, this could be a skill issue, but it didn’t feel very casual. This could be because I was always losing.

    Another issue I have with the grind is that packs don’t give enough cards. Players can buy into their favorite faction which is nice, but only have two options: a starter pack for 100g and a regular pack for 600g. For 100 gold, players can open 5 card packs without a chance at a legendary. This is a good way to build a collection for a faction, but lacks a bit of key power. For 600g, players get that chance at higher rarities, but that price just seems too high. I got enough currency for two normal packs and feel like I wasted my money and that is bad for the player who spends money, and worse for the player who grinds for it. When everyone feels like they have a better deck on the ladder, not getting enough cards for a proper upgrade is going to turn off some players. Packs should have more cards.

    Buying into a faction you like is cool, but finding what that is another story. The starter decks give players a proper preview of each faction’s unique mechanics. Not being able to find a fair match makes it hard to choose a faction. Players can practice against the game’s AI or thug it out in casual PvP to find a solution, but choosing wrong feels bad when the card packs are so expensive. This is an issue that will fix itself with more players, the problem is, will players stick around long enough for that to happen?

    Honestly, the game is a unique take on the genre that more players need to try. The game has very cool flavor with very neat interactions. At the moment, the only issue I have with the game is that the new player experience isn’t great, especially if you’ve never played card games before. With a healthier playerbase, a lot of the issues I have with the game won’t be as bad.It just needs more players. If you are a new player, try to stick with it until you get past the hump before deciding to step away. Watch videos to ensure you aren’t wasting valuable resources. I personally don’t like the loop, but it is a game that will carve out its niche.

    Go check Dfiance out on Steam. It is free-to-play.

  13. CW: Game Review (Dead as Disco)

    Dead as Disco is a music rhythm beat-em-up where you punch hordes of enemies to the beat of your favourite music.

    It's pretty solid as a rhythm game goes, and the in game music choice is excellent. I've discovered however, that I stress grip the controller with games like this and I cannot play for longer than a few rounds before cramping up. Also, the music I have on my computer is way too slow to enjoy in a game like this

    There's a free demo atm, which I highly recommend, and plug your own favourite music into the endless mode

  15. 🧛‍♀️ NEW REVIEW: Cabernet delivers a refreshingly thoughtful take on vampire fiction, focusing on the psychological toll of immortality rather than just the power fantasy.

    With excellent voice acting (including Brian David Gilbert!), meaningful choices, and Victorian atmosphere thick enough to cut with fangs, it's a standout in narrative gaming.

  17. Finished »The Case of the Golden Idol.« That was fun! The last scenario took me a bit too long, but I’m pretty sure it was my fault.

    🌟 9/10 — Highly recommended

  20. I just finished #JennyLeClue and I am not sure I like it. The art style and voice acting are fantastic, but something about the gameplay doesn't feel very satisfying. It could be the controls (sometimes Jenny can't run when you need to go back and forth for a puzzle), or the puzzles being too handholding.
