BanG Dream! Girls Band Party! A magical rhythm game for mobile! (Mobile game review)

Image
  Environment/ General feel The game allows you to explore several small maps where the various band members will hang out and talk, you can tap on them to listen to a variety of casual conversations to listen to. This is one of my favorite feature in this game, you can get a better feel of the band member's personality and relationships with one another.  The characters from the various bands all have their individual charm that keeps you playing to know more about their story! My personal favorite so far is definitely the carefree and air-headed "Hello, Happy World!", yes, the band's name is literally Hello, Happy World! The dynamic of 3 extremely air-headed girls and a DJ in a bear costume that's the voice of reason in the band, yes, the girl in the bear costume Deejay-ing is the logical and practical one! Their story line never fails to bring a smile to my face.   Gameplay The gamplay itself is a simple tapping rhythm game with 7 keys,...

Digimon World: Next Order (tl;dr review)

Image
Pros: + A huge variety of Digimon to breed + Decently sized map with different variety of environments  + ExE Digivolutions!! Cons: -Extremely grind oriented -Digimons die after a certain age -Pretty hard to get specific digivolutions  Graphics: 7/10 Gameplay: 6/10 Overall: 7/10 This is definitely a game made for Digimon fans, as I myself would’ve never even looked at such a game if not for my beloved Digimon, sure it has its moments, like the ExE evolutions I mentioned, but it is simply buried under too much tediousness to make this a game I’d replay. Definitely only get this game if you’re a Digimon fan, because it features over 200 Digimon. Take a look at the full review here

Breed your own Digi-buddies in Digimon World: Next Order! (Review)

Image
Environment The map of the game is actually pretty big, you can travel to different areas filled with they very own personality and types of different Digimon. But although there are quite a lot of different areas that you can go to, none of them actually strike me as particularly memorable, although, I was quite invested in the town area where you train your Digimon, feed them and collect agricultural resources. I was really excited when the place transformed from a small bare-bones village into a rather magnificent town! Although the graphics can seem a bit dated, the Digimon themselves still look magnificent to me.  Gameplay The gameplay is solely focused on the breeding of your Digimon partners, in this game, you get to have 2 partners to follow you around, you can get them up from their baby forms right up to their mega forms, and you’ll have to pay attention while training them so that you’ll get the digivolution that you ...

DMC 5 (tl;dr review)

Image
Pros +Incredible combat +Beautiful graphics +Great characters (Dante and V) Cons - Story was mediocre, especially the ending - Platforming (it's not fun) Graphics: 9/10 Gameplay: 9/10 Overall: 9/10 Story aside, this is still one of the best games I've played so far. Definitely worth every penny. Get it if you really like actions games or hack & slash games. Get it on Steam  here Full Review here

DMC is still stylish as ever in DMC 5! (Review)

Image
Environment The game is set in London, a London that's ravaged by demons, despite that, the maps still managed to draw my attention from time to time, the city that's completely unrecognizable in places where demonic goo, tentacles and roots, the places do look marvelous and menacing at the same time, truly a fitting map for DMC 5  Gameplay The gameplay is going to be separated into 3 parts, the parts that you play as the 3 main characters of the game, Nero, Dante and V, they all have very distinctive playstyles which may affect your experience in the game.  First let's look at Nero , the first one you get to use, DMC 5 changed Nero to have a slightly more varied playstyle, by equipping him with a plethora of different "Devil Breakers" since his loss of his original demonic arm, the "Devil Bringer". While I do agree that the Devil Breakers are a breath of fresh are for Nero's rather monotonic gameplay back in DMC 4, I do ...

Vampyr (tl;dr review)

Image
Pros: + Immersive Story + Choices have significant impact on NPC + Interesting interactions with NPC + Voiceover quite good, especially for the main character Cons: - Bland and clunky combat - Slightly dated graphics - Travelling around map can be a pain sometimes Gameplay: 9/10 Graphics: 7/10 Overall: 8/10 An extremely solid game for story lovers, the story will most likely keep you hooked until the end, but for action game fans, this is probably a rather subpar game. So get it for the story, not the combat. See the full review:  https://lykegaming.blogspot.com/2019/09/save-london-or-plunge-it-into-chaos-be.html
