Marlew Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 @Horribleman Yes, bonus tables and everything. Just a few bells and whistles missing from a graphical perspective but it looks very similar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagicalDrop Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Tempted by Dimension Drive at 85% off, now £1.79 but I can see @Stanshall hated it...is it worth the price of a swift half a lager or a cheap Aldi sandwich? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlew Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 @MagicalDrop Honestly, it's a novel idea but irritating to play. You have to look in two places at once all the time so you never feel engaged in the gameplay. I wish it were more fun but it's really not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

friedgold Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Picked up Unexplored last night for £3-something. Had been looking for it in the Christmas sale after this great writeup on RPS. No idea how it plays yet (Divinity has me held tight at the moment) but happy to take a punt for a few quid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've to my shame not yet got S2 or S3, but glad I got this. This adds in Colour Picross too, which is a nice bonus. I'd love for a decent Sudoku and Slitherlink game on the Switch at some point too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiper Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 From what I've heard it's a little lower-stakes than VA-11 Hall-A and doesn't really go anywhere. Seeing as the chill, slice-of-life ambience of VA-11 Hall-A was a part of why I loved it, a game that really leans into that aspect is pretty appealing to me, so I plan to try it, but I'm not sure how soon that will be. Apologies, that's not all that useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackson Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Overcooked 1 is £6 atm, a bit simpler and more accessible than the sequel I'd say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolly Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Just while we're talking about it, I played VA-11 HALL-A last year on the Switch and thought it was throughly lovely. Consider my interest piqued in Coffee Talk (mind you - I'm part way through 428 Shibuya Scramble at the moment, with Zero Time Dilemma on the shelf and I really should get round to AI: The Somnium Files at some point so adding another visual novel to the pile might not be the wisest of moves) Narrator: He bought Coffee Talk. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know lots of other people are interested, though. Gnarly. I'm playing this at the moment. Can't say i'm enjoying it. Its very annoying in that forced difficulty kinda way - like the developers choice of enemy placements + traps etc is designed to piss you off rather than let you figure out your own strategy. Maybe i was expecting too much? Anyway, i'm not giving up on it just yet. I gonna do a little grinding and see if some of the unlockable perks make it smoother sailing and a more pleasurable experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yasawas Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 I’ve never been convinced I’ll enjoy Stick it to the Man but I reasoned two quid was worth the chance. Haven’t started it yet but I booted it there to move it up my home screen and I genuinely can’t believe the title screen music. It’s won me over in literally seconds.

mdn2 Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Murder By Numbers should appeal to a fair few of us when it releases. It's Picross crossed with Phoenix Wright. With the OST done by they guy who did Ace Attorney. It's out in Japan next month, so hopefully it shouldn't be too long before we get it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
