Today's prompt, hosted by The Rambling Redshirt, is about our mascots... if I had one, what would it be? Well, jokes on you, I've got one already! I present to you... I mean... we've seen Magi already, haven't we? Ages, ago, when I just started out doing pixel-art in Paint.net, I did attempt to re-pixel the... Continue Reading →
Today's post starts a bit different from usual... first of all, the title is all weird, isn't it? It is in the Stray Sheep category but... I'm dropping the numbers and all of that. If it's in the Stray Sheep category, it shouldn't need the "Stray Sheep" name in the title... followed by a number,... Continue Reading →
For the past couple of days, I've been playing Viridi while working on different stuff, which was quite relaxing. Suddenly, an epiphany came to me as I had a very good idea involving different bloggers... and these plants. But first things first. What is Viridi? Viridi is a chill free-to-play game that I'd like to... Continue Reading →
What is my favourite Quote and why? Who the fuck is Todd Howards anyways? Why the fuck do I need to drag philosophy into this? These questions and possibly others in today's post! "Today" is Wilhelm's turn to hold the Blaugust baton and host "today"'s prompt for the Blaugust Promptapalooza! "Today" is in quotation marks... Continue Reading →
Oh boy, August's Humble Choice... is great! I was wondering what this month's gonna be like and I was surprised at the number of games from my wishlist... but I feel like I'm drifting away here. What were my choices? Why did I pick them? In what order did I decide on picking them? Well,...... Continue Reading →
This brings me back a bit but I actually talked about today's prompt before when I just started blogging and when I entered Blaugust for the first time last year. It feels like ages but it's only been a year since I wrote about this. Today's prompt is the following: Everyone has specific rituals that... Continue Reading →
Today, we've got another more "difficult" prompt: “What type of content do you feel is severely underrated?” This time around the prompt's not difficult due to me struggling with words but rather because of the ambiguity of it. Roger pointed in his post out that it could be referencing writing and blogging... but also could be about video... Continue Reading →
Blaugust Day 3 is here, and I'm late since I struggled with putting my thoughts into words. "What are some key sources of media (games/movies/etc.) that have shaped your worldview?" I do not like this prompt. My worldview is based on all the experiences that I accumulated over the course of the last 21 years... Continue Reading →
"What is some popular piece of content/media that seems to be universally loved that you have never been able to understand?" - That's today's prompt, "hosted" by @Dragonray over at AzerothianLife. In their post, Dragon actually talked about Game of Thrones and I completely agree with her views. I personally only have watched the first... Continue Reading →
Blaugust is here! I mean, August is here! Alas, here's the first prompt by Belghast: "If you could change anything about one of your core fandoms, what would it be?" - and I'm already confused. My issue with this one is that I don't think I'm part of really any fandom... at least I'm no... Continue Reading →
I forgot to pause July's Humble Choice so here's what I got this month - actually wasn't too bad, so that's quite awesome! As far as June went: I did get the bundle but I forgot to post about it and with exams and everything going on, I ended up not caring enough about it.... Continue Reading →
Welcome to another Stray Sheep. Today I'll talk about the upcoming Blaugust event, my participation in that, and other things. I hope you enjoy this post! Let's get right into it: It's nearly August and therefore it's time for Blaugust. But since we already participated in Blapril just a few months ago, Bel thought of... Continue Reading →
As a kid, I used to watch "Takeshi's Castle" whenever I came home from school and I loved it. Both the candidates and the commentary were hilarious. The game modes were extremely cool as well… and then there was the final round against Takeshi himself where everyone storms the castle and it was just great!... Continue Reading →
At last year's GamesCom I interviewed Ngoc Vu, the lead artist from Route 59, who at the time worked on Necrobarista. Now that the game is out I got a key for review purposes and, well,… TLDR: I love it. It's a great game. Why? Find out here! Developer: Route 59 Publisher: Route 59, Coconut... Continue Reading →
If you've seen "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids", "The Ant Bully", or "Antz", you might like the following title. In Obsidian Entertainment's "Grounded" you're playing as one of four kids, shrunk to the size of insects and other small critters. You get to roam a lawn, exploring vast grass-steam forests while scavenging and foraging for... Continue Reading →
Hyper Scape is apparently "the new shit". Though developed by Ubisoft, it seems to become rather popular as it introduces interesting mechanics to the BR-game genre. Here are my thoughts on it so far. It's a fast-take and less RNG-dependant take on the BR-genre and while I personally am not a fan of Ubisoft or... Continue Reading →
To The Moon! We've kind of forgotten about that, haven't we? Well, I haven't. I was just really busy... and didn't really feel like playing the game. Act 2 was dragging on for so long and Act 3 wasn't too surprising either and also felt quite boring so I stopped streaming the game (as it... Continue Reading →
Lillia is going to be next skirmisher-type jungler in the Rift. Today's post is a small guide on how to get Lillia's Haiku, an item that saves you 7800 BE and unlocks the champion for you on the next patch. But who is Lillia? Well,… I don't really know too much about her. She's a... Continue Reading →
In the past, I've talked about my core beliefs and ideals already. It has lead to the decision to not review Heartbeat, for instance, because I wouldn't want to review and promote a game that is made by people actively harming others... But as time went on, I noticed that my thinking may be flawed.... Continue Reading →
Not too long ago, we've taken a look at Omensight, a game made by Spearhead. Omensight combined a beautiful world and a lot of different characters with some cool mystery-solving mechanics and some insanely fun combat! This time around, we're taking a look at its spiritual predecessor, Stories: The Path of Destinies! Strap on for... Continue Reading →
Mortal Shell is a deep action-RPG that tests your sanity and resilience in a shattered world. Your adversaries spare no mercy, with survival demanding superior awareness, precision, and instincts. Possess lost warriors, track down hidden sanctums of the devout, and face formidable foes. And well,... the Beta/Demo of it arrived not too long ago and... Continue Reading →
I've enjoyed my fair share of shop or tavern keeping simulations from Recettear to Moonlighter to Shoppe Keep 1 & 2, so it was a bit of a no-brainer for me that I'd try out the demo for Traveller's Rest. But what exactly is Traveller's Rest? In Traveller's Rest, you take charge of a rundown... Continue Reading →
In today's Indietail, we're talking about „Before I Forget“ by 3-Fold Games, a one-hour-long narrative experience, that shows us the story of Suni and Dylan Appleby. Developer: 3-Fold Games Publisher: 3-Fold Games Release Date: July 16th, 2020 Genres: Indie, Exploration, Walking Simulator, Narrative, Adventure Reviewed on: PC Available for: PC Copy received from Humble Choice....

Another interesting title that caught my eye during the Steam Game Festival (Summer Edition) was Cicle Interactive's "Automaton", which is planned to be released on August 3rd 2020! It's a Puzzle-Adventure set in a post-apocalyptic desert world where a small little robot ventures out in search for fuel. You explore abandoned bunkers, stations and other... Continue Reading →
By now the Steam Game Festival has already ended, but fear not! There will be more posts about the demos that I played! Alas, this post is about For the People - a game about time management and political choices. We take control of the newly appointed mayor of Iron-1, Francis Rivers, who has to... Continue Reading →
Today, we're interviewing Forrest Downling from The Molasses Flood about their upcoming game, Drake Hollow!
Just recently I wrote about #TwitchBlackout and my issues with it. On Wednesday, the 24th, I actually went live and talked with my community about different issues and, here's how that went. So, at first, I thought I'd talk about the issues that are currently in the focus and why I think talking about it... Continue Reading →
Critters for Sale is… interesting. It's a weird and mesmerizing experience. I don't exactly know what drew me to it when I saw it on the demo page but without really knowing anything about it, I installed it and started it up only to find myself in some surreal ride full of events that I'm... Continue Reading →
Starmancer looked like the closest thing to any of the games that I'm usually enjoying and all the demos I've seen on the Steam Game Festival. It's getting published by Chucklefish which fits most of my favourite games… it's a strategy, base-building simulation game based in Space and you essentially play as a powerful A.I.... Continue Reading →
It's sadly not part of the Steam Game Festival but Drake Hollow is definitely something to look out for. I'm really excited about the game - and not only due it being made by the dev behind The Flame In The Flood! The Molasses Flood's second game can best be described as a Base-Building Action-Survival-Game. ... Continue Reading →
