 +^ //Bubble Ghost Remake// ''[demo]'' | |
 +| Was never that into the original, but did play it on a the [[nintendo_games_boy|Game Boy]] a little bit. This version blows. Someone each screen has a couple-of-seconds loading time, even when you're restarting the same one after dying. Graphics are hideous, and the backgrounds are hard to read, so it's a bit of trial and error knowing what will pop the bubble. ||

 | Didn't think much of this. Feels sloppy, light stages are too long and enemy placement isn't as well thought-out as the original. I've been playing the first //Contra// on the [[nintendo_entertainment_system|Famicom]] a bit recent to test different rapid-fire controllers, so it's pretty fresh in my memory. In the demo the Story mode bugs out (why is there even a story mode?), but arcade mode works. It's cool that you can be the //Probotector// robots. || | Didn't think much of this.

 | I've been curious about these [[hidden_object_game|hidden object games]] for a bit. There are heaps of them. This one wasn't that different to playing a point-and-click kinda thing, except the puzzles were a bit more elaborate, the graphics overwrought, and the setting was some fantasy trash.\\ Kinda chill, would play another one for free for an hour or two :) || | I've been curious about these [[hidden_object_game|hidden object games]] for a bit.

 | So far I like it, but probably not enough to bother buying it. I particularly like the graphics, look both like early 3-D renders and [[Mega Drive]] sprites, really vibrant. Stage design reminds me a bit of the latest //Kirby// game. The combination of moves hasn't really gelled together for me, and though I kinda like the idea of how combat works, how you have to get overwhelmed to take a hit, it's mostly just spinning the joystick around, which always makes me feel a bit anxious, like I'm killing my controller, especially now these things are so expensive. || | So far I like it, but probably not enough to bother buying it.

 +^ //Phantom Brave// ''[demo]'' | |
 +| Feel like half the draw for this kinda thing is nice graphics, but they've gone and replaced everything with 3-D animes. Battles seem unique, but I can't be fucked. ||
