'Ultimate Zombie Defense', An Addictive Top-Down

 Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!

There's something so unique about come developers making a good old top-down game these days. While the genre may seem busy with new releases at times, it seems to be evolving more and more as we all do. I find these games to be some of the most iconic that are around. I love to experience them and be in awe with how far they have truly come.

Ultimate Zombie Defense is a top-down survival, co-op, zombie, horror game. The game is set in a formerly quiet place in continental Europe that has been surrounded by a zombie outbreak, as well as the surrounding 250 kilometers. In order to combat this, you have to use various weapons and do base-building to work to your advantage.

I really love the style of Ultimate Zombie Defense. I really adore both the top-down perspective and the actual style of the game itself. It's somewhat realistic, but not eerily realistic so it's not hard to look at like this type of game often is. I also think the base-building mechanics are just in-depth enough to be my favourite part of the game to focus on, as per usual.

I think Ultimate Zombie Defense is perfect for those who are looking for their new top-down addiction. I sat playing this game for hours, and I wouldn't have had it any other way. It just manages to grab the player so quickly, and it embodies the "one more game" state of mind so much. I think it's one to keep an eye on for sure.

'House Builder', A Must Have Construction Game

 Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!

It goes without saying that one of my favourite gaming genres has to be any type of building game. They just feel like the most positively therapeutic types of game, and I just lose myself in them for hours on end. I also think they can be the best games to just zone out to and forget about the real world a little bit while playing them.

House Builder is a phenomenal new game where you do construction by yourself. You start of with some very basic building styles such as mud bricks, and you work your way up to some massive, modernized buildings. As your jobs get more complex, so do your tools. The jobs are also not limited to just one place, but all over the world.

In my opinion, House Builder is leaps and bounds ahead of its competition in terms of mechanics. The game in general just feels so smooth and easy to play. I love that you get to have more complicated tools and mechanics the more you progress, and it was just the kind of relaxing game that I needed in my life for sure. I think this one is a must have. I also look forward to seeing what else they will do in the future with this game, or even if there will be more games in the future, maybe a sequel?

House Builder is perfect for those gamers who just want to feel like their progress means something in one of these construction games. Sometimes levels seem so cut and paste in these games, but House Builder does not have this issue. I love that it seemingly rewards your progression and makes everything more advance instead of essentially giving you easy mode like other games have and would. As seen above, the characters are also very nice to look at... I am a fan. Woof.

'Hellstuck: Rage with your Friends', the Most Accurate Name I've Come Across

 Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!

There's just something about a rage inducing game that can hit different in the best way. Don't get me wrong, it's really easy to get frustrated and abandon a game for being hard, but it's an amazing feeling when you stick to it and succeed. Some of these games give such an amazing sense of accomplishment when you even finish a small portion of them. Add being able to play these games with you friends, and it's just a good time in general.

Hellstuck: Rage with your Friends is an incredible new precise platformer where you literally start in Hell itself and work your way up through the nine circles of Hell. As you can probably tell by the name, you can play this game online with friends. A single mistimed or misplaced jump can send you all the way back to the beginning.

Hellstuck: Rage with your Friends is an absolute blast. I knew from the beginning it would be insanely difficult, but being able to play it with others almost made the pure rage towards this game worth it. I was hooked and just felt the need to do better than everyone else. I also love the simplistic art style Hellstuck: Rage with your Friends has, it is so charming. In general, the game is insanely well made.

I think Hellstuck: Rage with your Friends is the perfect party game to play with as many of those online friends we know and love as possible. It was such a genuinely fun game to play, and I think it would really bring out the lighthearted banter we all know and love. It is simply an absolute bargain of a game that I think anyone could enjoy.

'Kao the Kangaroo', A Visit From an Old Friend

 Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!

There's nothing quite like a platformer, let alone a platformer from a franchise being reignited. When a franchise returns, it's just like an old friend appearing out of nowhere, and you can talk as if you had only seen each other the day before. It is truly one of the most serotonin filled feelings.

Kao the Kangaroo is a brilliant 3d platformer revival of the series of the same name. It follows a very bubbly Kangaroo named Kao (woah, that's the name of the game) who wants to find out what has happened to his father. There's multiple amazing collectibles and worlds, and I feel like it has all the aspects of the greatest platformers of all time.

First of all, I will preface, I knew from the second I saw Kao the Kangaroo that I was going to fall in love with this game. It has all the features that myself and so many platformer lovers have come to know and love. The characters are so charming, the levels are beautiful, and in general the gameplay is an absolute blast. It feels like there are a lot of 3d platformers in this day and age, but this one is exactly what I needed to scratch that itch. I love the base game so much, and I can not wait until the day I can get the DLC.

Kao the Kangaroo is a perfect starting point or even returning point for lovers of the platformer genre. It's so beautifully made and is extremely charming. Not only is Kao the Kangaroo amazing, but it's so reasonably priced, and on all major platforms, that you can have that nostalgic feeling with a new friend. This game is amazing, and I can't wait to see what lies in the future for it.

'Alice Gear Aegis CS: Concerto of Simulatrix', the Battle Arena I Didn't Know I Needed

 Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!

There's something just so beautiful about a good old arena game. These types of games seem to stand the test of time so much, and even the newest of entries in the genre are welcome with open arms. No matter what perspective or dimension they are created in, these games just truly call out to me.

Alice Gear Aegis CS: Concerto of Simulatrix is a brand-new 3D battle arena game with some visual novel elements. Vice has taken over the world and it is the player's job to take it back. There is a large variety of team mates to choose from that all possess different skill sets. You can also customize the characters to make them look even cuter.

To say the characters in Alice Gear Aegis CS: Concerto of Simulatrix are adorable is an understatement. Every single character in this game is best girl. I fell so instantly in love with the game as a whole that the DLC slipped into my cart shortly after playing. The action is hard hitting, but I didn't feel overlwhelemed, and the visual novel elements were utilized so well for the cutscenes.

I recommend Alice Gear Aegis CS: Concerto of Simulatrix for lovers of the battle arena genre and lovers of all things kawaii. This game was generally just a pleasure to play, and I instantly fell in love with it. I would love to see a sequel in the future bug obviously for now I just love Alice Gear Aegis CS: Concerto of Simulatrix as it is.

'Tents and Trees', A Challenging Delight

 Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!

There's something so fun and sometimes therapeutic about a relaxing puzzle game. Generally, puzzle games are the most versatile genre of game that can be enjoyed by multiple demographics. This also makes the genre accessible to both gamers and non-gamers.

 Tents and Trees is heavily influenced by some really incredible classic puzzle games, and originated as a mobile game, but was ported to the Nintendo Switch recently. This game is very similar to Picross where you need to place tent and tree blocks on a table of spaces. As you progress with the game, it gets more difficult, and the grids get bigger.

I found Tents and Trees to be a challenging delight to play. The general atmosphere of the game is so beautiful, and it was both contrasting and majorly complimentary to the sheer level of challenge it possesses. There was just something so relaxing about working through each puzzle, and even the most challenging ones tend to be still so much fun.

I recommend Tents and Trees to those gamers who just need a relaxing game in between all the chaos. It is such a lovely experience to play, and it is insanely friendly for people who are not used to games like this. I feel like anyone could find enjoyment in it for sure.
