Donnie’s Delicious Nuclear Funeral: Funeral for a Fool - Hand‑drawn grotesque humor and weighty choices. (Demo Impressions)

Donnie’s Delicious Nuclear Funeral thrusts you into a grotesque, hand‑drawn wasteland as Susie, a tender‑hearted sister on a frantic, one‑day mission to give her worthless brother a proper send‑off. The demo distills the game’s darkly comic DNA; twisted humor, expressive art, and branching choices; into a tight, flavorful vignette that makes every conversation, barter, and moral detour feel weighty and delightfully absurd. What the demo delivers • One‑day pressure : A single in‑game day forces ruthless prioritization; every conversation, detour, and barter eats into your clock, so choices feel urgent and the pacing stays taut. • Point‑and‑click structure : Familiar adventure navigation and inventory puzzles make exploration intuitive; clever item combos and dialogue hooks reward curiosity and lateral thinking. • Branching moments : Even the demo teases meaningful divergence, small decisions ripple outward, unlocking alternate interactions and hinting at the absurd, often darkly comic ...

Infect Cam: Into the Body‑Cam Darkness (Game Review)

Infect Cam throws you into a ruined world where the living envy the dead and every extraction could be humanity’s last gamble. You’re one of a four‑person rescue team, seeing the world through a jittering body‑cam with narrow sightlines and distorted audio; visibility is limited, information is scarce, and every decision matters. Scavenge supplies, ration ammo and med‑kits, manage an encroaching infection meter, and coordinate with teammates in real time; split‑second choices about when to push, hide, or retreat determine whether your squad survives the night. The result is a tense, cooperative survival thriller where teamwork, resource discipline, and situational awareness are the only things standing between you and oblivion. Gameplay loop The game centers on cooperative survival: sweep through ruined cityscapes, locate hostages or critical clues, scavenge ammo and med‑kits, and extract before the mission unravels. Teamwork isn’t optional; share scarce resources, call out threats, a...

The Cabin Factory: Short, Sharp, and Unnervingly Effective (Game Review)

The Cabin Factory pares horror to a razor‑sharp idea: you’re a newly hired Cabin Inspector tasked with entering cabins, cataloguing anomalies, and making a split‑second verdict; Danger if something’s wrong, Clear if it’s safe. The binary mechanic belies a surprising depth: ambiguous signs, contextual cues, and the uncanny silence between rooms force you to weigh instinct against evidence. That elegant simplicity is the game’s power, what could read as a gimmick becomes a relentless, focused loop of observation and decision‑making that sustains a steady, creeping dread across its compact, roughly one‑hour runtime. How it plays • Core loop : Traverse each cabin with a careful eye, cataloguing details and making a binary verdict; Danger if something’s off, Clear if it’s safe. The simplicity sharpens every choice: with only two buttons, every observation matters and hesitation becomes part of the tension. • Anomaly hunting : The game resists reflexive fleeing by making anomalies ambiguous...

Little Problems: A Cozy Detective Game (Game Review)

Little Problems reframes everyday slipups as cozy, satisfying mysteries. You play Mary, a student juggling missed lectures, forgotten meetups, and the small social snafus that make life feel cluttered; each case asks you to listen closely, piece together mundane clues, and gently untangle the mess. Rather than dramatic conspiracies or forensic spectacle, the game rewards empathy, curiosity, and lateral thinking, solving a problem here feels like helping a friend, not cracking a cold case. The result is a warm, human‑scale detective experience where cleverness and kindness matter as much as deduction. Gameplay and Puzzles • Core loop : Investigate compact, self‑contained cases by collecting clues, interviewing characters, and annotating Mary’s notebook until the answer emerges. Each case is designed to resolve in a single session, so progress feels steady and every solved problem delivers a neat payoff. • Handcrafted puzzles : Ten distinct vignettes offer bespoke logic and surprises; v...

CloverPit (iOS & Android): A hellish slot‑driven roguelite of risk and ruin. (Game Review)

CloverPit drops you into a rusted cell with a slot machine, an ATM, and one merciless rule: pay off your debt or be consumed by it. Part puzzle, part panic, it recasts gambling tropes as a solvable survival loop; pull the lever, stack charms and prizes, and engineer cascading synergies that can turn a desperate scrape for coins into a runaway lucky streak. Every decision matters: manipulate the odds, exploit item combos, and balance risk versus reward as the game’s claustrophobic atmosphere and dark humor ratchet up the tension. Equal parts twisted economy and chaotic roulette, CloverPit rewards creativity and nerve, turning each run into a high‑stakes experiment in breaking the system and buying your freedom. Core concept and tone • Premise : You start each run locked in a cell. The slot machine is your engine for income; the ATM is your deadline. Pull the lever, collect charms and prizes, and use meta‑progression to tilt future runs in your favor. • Tone : A horror‑tinged escape ro...
