This is by far the best Resident Evil clone in Steam. It really feels like playing one of those classic survival horror games but with some new mechanics. There is only one campaign available right now (Liam's campaign) but Laurel's campaign will release very soon. Developers did put a lot of love and effort into this game. Is more, you can clearly see they are huge fans of the RE franchise and they know what they are doing. The game has also an incredible soundtrack that fits the atmosphere perfectly. It is also very well optimized.

PD: For a better experience, I recommend playing in Survival Mode. There are also a lot of endings and unlockables. That means a lot of replayability.

I never thought I would see EvoCreo in Steam, but here it is! Never played the mobile version but I heard good things about it. This game feels like a classic Pokemon and I love it. The battle and evolution system are different from other games of this genre and that's what makes it fresh and innovative. The amazing music and the good looking monster sprites makes you feel like you've gone back to the 90s. Highly recommended to people who loves this genre!

PD: the last patches fixed a lot of bugs. Hats off to the developers.

A top quality mod for Half Life 1. It is like playing the first game but with a whole new story, characters and weapons. You can clearly see that the modder put a lot of effort and love into this mod. It also have achievements which add a plus of interest to all players out there. You can't miss this one. Recommended!

I am surprised how a indie company can make such a good survival horror game (better than Capcom to be honest). A lot of puzzles, ammo is scarce and it has that RE vibe to it. You can truly see that the developers love the RE franchise and wanted to create a proper survival horror game. The optimization is also great. So far, the best RE 7 and 8 clone. Not disapointed at all (well, some enemy animations could need a little more work but they are decent). Rcommended to all survival horror players, yes or yes!

The Thing (videogame) is set after the events of the 1982 film. A lot of people hated the game back then but I enjoyed it a lot. I remember playing it when I was 12 (the game was rated for +18 lol). There was a time where I got very scared, shut down the PC and ran to the dining room. My grandma said to me "you ran like a demon is chasing you". Ahhh, pure nostalgia indeed. This remastered version improved a lot of things. One of them is the scripted transformations of your squad members. Now they get infected if they get hit by the thing creatures rather than transforming when reaching X area of the mission (some of them may be scripted because of the story). The visuals improved a lot and the game runs smooth as butter. I recommend you to play it on "Very Hard" and with these options OFF: glitter of objects, reticle, icons over NPC's, HUD / ammo and auto-aiming. Have fun!

PD: the only downside are the achievements. I think Nightdive Studios was pretty lazy in this matter. A little bit disappointed to be honest as i would have loved to do a lot of runs. Not only that, but it is more casual friendly now (a lot of ammo / medikits, checkpoints and the removal of ammo clips). Very Hard difficulty still feels like you are playing Easy. Also, the store page mentions 20 levels when in the original were 16. Where are the other 4 extra levels?

Octopath Traveler 2 is a huge improvement over the first game. I started with Hikari (warrior) because I loved it when playing the demo long ago. I must say that only a few games made me drop a tear and this game is one of them. The stories are more impactful, better real time cutscenes and also with better voice acting. The latent power moves are spectacular and they are a good addition to the game. Not only that but the crossed path stories are also a good addition (it involves two characters). And if that wasn't enough to rate this game as a masterpiece, the soundtrack is one of the best i have ever heard in a videogame. If you loved Octopath Traveler 1, you will love this one even more! Recommended!

I played Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth back in 2008-2009. It was creepy as h*ll and I loved it. When this game was announced i got really excited. When i saw all the negative stuff that the people threw at the game i started to wonder if it was worth to play it. One day, a Steam friend (thank you Ramo) gifted me the game, tried it out but still did not convinced me. In 2023 i gave it another chance and oh my god. Apparently is a good game. The atmosphere is creepy and it makes you stay on guard all the time (the mansion location as example). Cyanide and Focus are not a well known companies and with a "bad" reputation but i think they did a great job here (not amazing, but good enough). The unique thing that this game offers is how you want to play: Use your strength to solve problems as quickly as possible, dialogue skills, lockpicking, etc. Recommended to all lovecraft fans!

This is the true successor of Gothic. After the big fail of Gothic 3, they went to their correct path again and made a masterpiece: Risen. This game has so many Gothic 1-2 vibes and also feels like an improved version of it. The combat is still a little bit clunky but better than all the other games they made. The atmosphere is really good. It has that dark fantasy feeling to it, i can't describe it. The interaction with the environment is amazing. You can do practically everything, even using a pickaxe for extract gold / iron etc, cooking / eating (real time animations), forging and more. The voice acting is really good as well and there are a lot of conversation lines. Some of them will lead to funny comments and some others into troubles or rewards. Risen feels like one of those games with endless things to do and ways to complete your goals. Meaning: 100% freedom. I recommend this game to all RPG fans out there, because it really is a good one!

An amazing game set in the 40's where the player will take the rol of a Detective named Cole Phelps. From the very beginning of the game, the environment and the music makes you feel as a true detective. The facial animations are crucial for your cases and it was pretty amazing back in the day (to be honest, is the only game i saw with this much detail in facial expressions). The weakest point of the game is its action moments. Cole seems to have infinite ammo and most of the conflicts end the same way. Other than that, it is an amazing experience for anyone who likes games like Mafia or The Godfather

I never played Halo before (well, only the top-down shooters aka Spartan Assault / Strike) but I must say that I am enjoying the first couple of missions (starting from Halo CE). The game is even more fun in Co op. It has a lot of campaigns and stuff to do. I will surely put a lot of hours and more in co op with my lovely partner ♥. Recommended for any kind of player.

PD: the only thing that annoys me is that all the achievements are merged together. I mean, they could have separated them and having each game in your library with its respective achievements. That way it would be easier to track the achievements in each game.
