My Week Unwrapped: August 30, 2018 – Donut County, Valleys Between, Powerless, Hungry Dragon, Barbearian, Unavowed, Theo Space Miner, and More

Hi everyone! You may have noticed that this installment of My Week Unwrapped is another day late. There was a death in my family yesterday and I was a bit overwhelmed. I almost skipped it completely this week, but then I realized that would make next week's ridiculously long, especially since there's some big releases both this week and next week. So here we are with a very late roundup of all…

‘Valleys Between’ Review: Nature is Hard to Nurture

Valleys Between By: Little Lost Fox Without knowing anything at all about the gameplay, I'd been looking forward to Little Lost Fox's Valleys Between for quite some time. I mean, grab a peek at any of their screenshots and it's not hard to see why. The art style and coloring are reminiscent of Alto's Odyssey, though it's an endless grid-based puzzler instead of a runner. My first few games with it were…

Dissembler By: Ian MacLarty Ian MacLarty's colorful puzzler, Dissembler, is one of those games that I hadn't heard of before and didn't grab me from its screenshots, but I gave it a shot anyway since I was sent a code. It ended up being one of my favorite games, and a Game of the Year contender for 2018. I reviewed it back when it released earlier this year, and since then I've…

‘Donut County’ Review: Life as a Hole is Pretty Sweet

Donut County By: Annapurna Interactive (Ben Esposito) I didn't really know what to expect from Donut County when I first heard it announced, but being published by Annapurna Interactive was already a good sign for me. They've published such games as the masterpiece, Gorogoa, the iOS port of Flower, and short but sweet Florence. I knew anything from them would at the very least be unique. Combine that with the odd premise…

ΓÇÿPowerlessΓÇÖ Review: Needs a Jump Start

Powerless By: Narratio My first experience with the narrative choose-your-own-adventure type game, Powerless, by Narratio, was a positive one. After spending about thirty minutes with it, I wrote here how impressed I was with it, that it seemed very polished. I didn't encounter many spelling or grammar mistakes, the writing was strong, and the stories were interesting to me. I liked how you choose different characters -- or personas -- and then…
