Download Size: 300 MB Time Played : 4 hrs. Gardens Unlocked: 12/15 Global Ranking (2/5/12): 18th What I'd Pay : $10 Steam Price (2/5/12): $10 PixelJunk Eden turns a lot of platforming mainstays on their head. Instead of rich colors, it uses 3-4, with the neon plants/ground contrasting with the psychedelic background. Instead of cheery game tunes, slow electronica issues forth from your speakers. Time, not the…
Download Size: 300 MB Time to Finish : 22 hrs. Difficulty Level: Normal Maps Drawn: 8 Total Party Kills: 9 What I'd Pay : $15 Steam Price: $20 Has Demo? Yes If I wasn't reviewing this game, I would've quit it before it got good. About 10 hours in, I had had it with the floaty controls and fighting enemies that seemed to move faster than me. And now I had just gotten my healer taken away from me (again) and had to go…

Time to Finish : 25-40 hrs? Time I've Played : 12 hrs. Number of Times Game has Chewed Me Up, Spat Me Out : 5 What I'd Pay : $20 Steam Price (1/29/12): $4 (normally $10) I've been playing for 12 hours & I'm not even halfway through the game. That thought kept going through my head as I wrote this review. (Well, that and how am I going to destroy a ship with a half-dozen turret cannons.) I wanted to finish the game…
Time to Finish : 4 hrs. Length of Last Mission : 30 min. What I'd Pay : $10 Steam Price (1/27/12): $10 The most unique thing about Sol: Exodus is that it exists. Halfway through, I felt it was bare bones, but when I tried to think of a title to compare it to, I had to go all the way back to TIE Fighter . How long has that been? Whoa, 18 years... I need something more recent. Freelancer , perhaps? Wait, that was 9…
Time to Finish : 7 hrs. Most Retries to Complete Single Stage : ~12-20 What I'd Pay : $7 Steam Price (1/21/12): $9 Unstoppable Gorg has an interesting twist on tower defense and style to spare, but it crashes late-game with an excrutiating difficulty curve that squeezes your resources and demands a strict strategy. Unstoppable Gorg takes a unique mechanic (your towers are satellites in rotatable orbits) and crafts a…
Time to Finish : 2.5 hrs. Most Time Spent on Single Puzzle : 10 min. What I'd Pay : $10 Steam Price (1/12/12): $15 Q.U.B.E. feels like a game the Portal team would hammer out in a month. It's stylish first-person puzzler with a bare-bones story hinted at by the environment and quite a few rough edges, yet it managed to tax my brain without frustrating me into quitting it for the night. The game's puzzles revolves…
