Truncated to the first few hundred characters as they were in the harvest reports. The weight beside each is one plus the natural log of one plus its helpful votes.

[u][b]20 Minutes Till Dawn[/b][/u] is a disappointing top-down horde survival game with a Lovecraftian and abyssal theme which I had high expectations for. Unfortunately, it failed to meet those expectations and turned out to be yet another generic horde su...

This is a great game! Ton of replayability but there is one big downside... THE DEVS ABAONDED THIS FOR A ♥♥♥♥♥♥ MOBILE PORT!! It pisses me the hell off that they ruined this great game, there mobile port is heavy on microtransactions and its really optimize...

3 years in Early Access, 0 updates, 100% abandonware scam Rating: 1/10 – and that’s generous Review: Let me save you $10. Death Must Die is dead. Not metaphorically dead like "oh the meta is stale." I mean dead dead. Abandoned. Left to rot. The digital equi...
Death Must Diew 4.5
[h2]Vampire Survivors is an action roguelite that spawned its own subgenre through the sheer addictiveness of its gameplay loop. Despite this popularity, it suffers from incredibly high power creep and misguided design philosophies that tarnish the late-game experience.[/h2] [table] [tr] [th]🟩 Pr...

I am so bummed out... I was really excited to play this game and from what little I experienced it has all the attributes of an incredibly addictive game. So why am I down-voting and why did I return the game? The strobing graphics (particularly the blurry character movement for me) are utterly *...

If you liked Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2, you will probably like Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions. As for me, I regard Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved [1] as the gold standard of the franchise (and all twin-stick shooters). I ultimately did not like Geometry Wars 2 for its departures

Not really sure of too many other games of this style to feel as if each unlock you get after a point outright worsens the experience but I genuinely feel like after a certain point, the fun of this game just entirely dries out due to having too many ways to essentially be able to "solve" what RN...

It seems that everytime an IP is handed off to another development studio, they can never capture what the original dev team made. Activision shut down Bizarre Creations, the original development team behind all of the Geometry War games. So now without the original team, Activis

After the latest update, the max item slots in couch coop were reduced from 4 to 2 per player. This completely breaks the balance and progression for duo play. How are we even supposed to reach the Grim Reaper (30-minute mark) with only 2 upgrades? Some weapons (like Peachone and Ebony Wings) are...
