Today we’re going to talk about a game that’s been on my list since I was streaming on YouTube: Dishonored. It was described to me as sort of a first-person Assassin’s Creed, so I wanted to give it a try. Let’s see how I liked it.

I’m not saying it for the first time, and probably not for the last time either: finding good VR games is hard. Since the big hype of a few years ago, things have not gone completely silent in this genre, but most new games are more limited to casual gamers. “Wanderer” finally seems to be a welcome change – is it though?

I have a difficult relationship with Bethesda games. On the one hand, I never get tired of pointing out bugs in games and getting upset about them, especially with this publisher. On the other hand, there are franchises that I don’t bat an eyelid at to lower my standards. From one of these franchises comes the game that this article will be about – Fallout: New Vegas. Read here how I liked it.

Today we will talk about the third part of the “The Longest Journey” series (parts one and two are of course also available). We end the small detour into the so-called “Dreamfall saga”, which revolves around Zoรซ Castillo – and there is another genre change. Can the game convince us? Let’s find out!

In the last article we talked about the first part of the “The Longest Journey” series, today we are talking about part two. “Dreamfall: The Longest Journey” does not show any particular ingenuity in its title, but that is not the point. Today we’re looking at the story and the change of genre – and what I thought of it.

Today we are talking about the first part of a long journey – the longest of all journeys to be exact. In the first part of the game series “The Longest Journey”, we get caught up in an adventure with art student April Ryan that directly threatens the existence of two worlds. Let’s talk about how that worked out here.

Today we’re not just talking about one game, but three – and somehow an entire series. “Ratchet and Clank” is a classic on the Playstation that has lasted for decades. So far I’ve only had the pleasure on the PSP, so it was time to catch up on the first three parts. You can read here whether it was worth it.

Today it’s about a game that I didn’t actually stream – you could still watch though. In this article we talk about how I wanted to go on vacation with Luzi, DeeDee and Rafi and how things didn’t quite go as planned – it’s about The Forest.
Note: The images have been edited to replace the camera image of the person playing. That’s why those in the corners sometimes look a bit strange. Don’t be surprised!

The game we’re going to be exploring today is one of my favorite genres of all: free. Well, it’s not free per se, but a viewer was kind enough to gift it to me. But I’m not averse to the actual genre either, namely the 2D platformers. That’s why we took a look at Celeste on two afternoons and climbed a mountain – you can read here how it went.

Recently we’ve ventured into a genre that I haven’t had too much exposure to in the past. The English “Graphic Adventure” doesn’t translate very well, but the German Wikipedia term – Point&Click – somehow doesn’t fit either. So let’s find out what it is and how I found it in this (spoiler-free) article.
