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!
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...

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 →
I used to be a waiter, as I previously mentioned a couple of times, and, well,… I wasn't all that great at it. I wasn't the fastest but I cared about my guests. Sometimes I wished I could have hit "space" and restarted, only to add some extra servos, wheels and hinges… maybe some blocks... Continue Reading →
I've always been fascinated by space and games that play in space. Landing on some planet, starting colonies, all that good stuff. Surviving Mars is a great game, Kerbal Space Program is something I wanna be good at, and well,… today's Demo: "Occupy Mars: Prologue" by Pyramid Games is something I want to like… You... Continue Reading →
Just the other day, I showed Ms Magi some games, including the demo of Streamline Games' "Bake 'n Switch". She found the style adorable and since it's a co-op game, I thought it might be a good time to try it out and see what's baking! The answer to that is bread. Lots of it!... Continue Reading →
Coming from a region where a lot of wine (primarily Riesling) is made, I thought that this one is a title that I HAVE TO TRY OUT. "Hundred Days" is "a game of choice, nostalgia and winemaking", which is honestly a perfect match for me. Broken Arms Games' title "Hundred Days" features different action-cards that... Continue Reading →
As a blogger who's kind of focused around indie games and new releases as well as reviews, I always am on the search for new titles that are coming up and worth checking out or writing about. Alas, the Steam Game Festival, Summer Edition, has been a great opportunity for me to do just that:... Continue Reading →
The last Stray Sheep has been half a month ago already so I thought I'd post something in that section already. This time around, we're talking about categories! Currently, I'm doing mostly reviews (Indietail) since I originally wanted to do exactly that, review titles in my library and work through my backlog. The Gaming Journey... Continue Reading →
April's Humble Choice offered you the option of downloading a DRM-free demo of Ring of Pain (v0.8.21) if you signed up for the choice, so I not only got some nice games this month but also got to see how much the game changed ever since the demo I played last year in August! But... Continue Reading →
The Witcher has Gwent, World of Warcraft has Hearthstone, and League of Legends... has Legends of Runeterra! Note: Given the nature of this post, I decided to move it from The Stray Sheep to The Lookout Post! Hence, this was formerly known as #33 in the Stray Sheep series but it's renamed and moved. Just... Continue Reading →
So, today's the last day of Blaugust and also the last post about interviews I did at the GamesCom! Today's Stray Sheep features the devs behind Kingdom, Flotsam and Foundation. Three strategy games that I'm quite excited about! While Kingdom has been out for quite some time and while I'm a fan of it ever since the first game, which... Continue Reading →
Okay, so today's Stray Sheep will cover the interview with Rebekah Saltsman, the Publisher of a small cute game called Tunic (which, btw, has incredible combat and features an insanely cute fox as the protagonist) and the Co-Founder and CEO of Finji Games and one of the Devs behind Overland, a turn-based survival game set in a post-apocalyptic world! You're... Continue Reading →
So, today's Stray Sheep is going to cover the next three interviews. This one features Naraven Games' Answer Knot, Fishing Cactus' Nanotale - Typing Chronicles and Route 59's Necrobarista. After this, there's going to be two more posts with interviews, featuring the dev/publisher of Tunic and Overland in one post, and the devs of Kingdom, Flotsam, and Foundation in another post, so stay tuned for... Continue Reading →
Today I started my job at a nearby school which is why today's Stray Sheep may be a bit later than usual - but then again, I don't have fixed times for my post anyways, apart from daily during Blaugust, so it shouldn't matter. In today's post, I'll share the next two interviews with you.... Continue Reading →
Okay in today's Stray Sheep, we're traveling in time as we're not only visiting the darkest of times (in Through the Darkest of Times) and the 60s/70s (in Resort) but also going back into the future (in a short bit about GravityLane). These are the second and the third GamesCom-Interview! Sadly, I couldn't interview GravityLane... Continue Reading →
So, for today's post, I'm publishing the first interview I ever did. As for context: I've visited the GamesCom last thursday, for the first time, and not only did I check out a ton of cool new games there, but I also talked to a lot of cool devs and even interviewed some of them,... Continue Reading →
Okay, so for today's Stray Sheep I wanted to talk about my first impressions on the GamesCom. In d(i)etail. Have fun. I originally planned to play Bioshock today as "Late to the Party #2" but I should get this small little article out asap since the last day of GamesCom was yesterday (Saturday, the 24th... Continue Reading →
So, today was quite the busy day for me, so I couldn't write down my impressions nor work on another review nor the interview. Hence, I'm talking about the following question: If you had to chose one game to play for the rest of your life, which one would it be? Well, for me it'd... Continue Reading →
So, in today's Stray Sheep I'm briefly going to talk about the GamesCom Experience! Or rather the TLDR-version of an upcoming post that I'm going to write (tomorrow I believe? Maybe even on Saturday? I don't know, tbh.). So, I went there at around 10:30 am - to the GamesCom in Cologne, which is (one... Continue Reading →
So in today's Stray Sheep, I'm talking about the upcoming Gamescom-Event, what I'm planning to do and what else I'm currently working on. This is a rather short update since I need to bring my SO to the hospital. Hope you don't mind! So first of all, Shademare Studio has provided me with a review... Continue Reading →
