A wonderful documentary depicting the realities of modern competitive gaming, while introducing promise of a future where competitive gaming becomes the most dominant form of international sport. The simplicity of the content and impressive perspectives of moment-to-moment Dota 2 action, are reason enough for any audience to appreciate this work's message.

This is an artsy puzzle platformer I have mixed feelings about. The concept, narration, and gameplay are pretty engaging, once I got it started, I mostly finished it in one sitting, but the actual character switching and jump mechanics could use some fine tuning. It's especially odd that this game doesn't have a color-blind mode either, even without a history of color blindness, the character swap HUD has a tendency to confuse me.

Ladies and gents, give this pre-alpha demo a shot, I know your satisfaction will correlate with your preference of music, but I feel like this is a rhythm exploration game with lots of potential and plenty of charm.

This game is a cute parody of retro RPG's and action adventures, but doesn't have enough substance or development to warrant a buy.

A game that just keeps growing in popularity due to its custom stories. A smart design choice, however the main game is enough for the price of admission. This is horror done right! No jump scares, just the constant feeling of uneasiness and helplessness that makes you fear that the next step you take will be your last. This game plays into your psyche and is flagship of horror gaming. I would definitely give it a try, the game is a rush and you will have much fun.

A very relaxing game, but another you should be playing on touch devices for the sake of better controls. The premise is simple, wrap a rope around the object, the rope drops paint on the object, proceed until an acceptable portion of the object is painted or continue for 100% to acheive an even coat. Helps the brain unwind and achieve zen. No joke, very relaxing with the right controls, touch preferred

An indie puzzler that deserves to be played on touch devices for the sake of convenience. However, the game itself is wonderfully stylized and very challenging if you are trying for the OCD quotas. You will be building impossible structures with the sentient goo balls at your disposal and trying your hardest to improve your construction skills. An astounding puzzle game with plenty of charm.

I would actually consider this game more of a visual novel by game theory definitions, but there are some minor areas requiring player interactivity in terms of skill or strategy. However, that speaks to the brilliance and artistry of this game, Telltale's The Walking Dead. It is 2012's greatest contribution in gaming blurring the line between player interactivity and human drama. The plot will undoubtedly hook you, just as the license from which it was inspired, but how the game incorporates you as the protagonist either being a guinea pig or a vessel of your moral perspectives will be what makes this experience unique. Game of the Year 2012

The original Torchlight was fun, but Torchlight II bests its predecessor and its competition. Constant wonderful drops, great character customization and skill flexibility, and expansiveness and creativity that is environment and enemies keeps you entertained for many hours. 6 Player Online as well! This game is fantastic and one that you will enjoy if you are looking for the next great action RPG since Diablo II.

This is a gorgeous goth-girl action platformer where viciousness is as important as platforming prowess. A unique mechanic is that you set your own checkpoint after acquiring the required amount of points, so a sort of strategic placement is involved, or you cannot put one down and shoot for a point bonus at the end for a ranking bonus. A beautiful game, but also very hard, you must master the combat to be truly successful.
