"Excellent game of poker!"

submission: Governor of Poker

date: July 18, 2008

Besides the obvious speed problems, Governor of Poker is the best flash poker game, if not one of the best poker games period, I have ever played. I commend you on this piece of work. The animation is astounding and very accurate to how humans would react. You get major points for the senses of realism you bring in GoP. The music meshes flawlessly and you even kept it traditional and put the setting in Texas. Funny. This game gets all my chips.

Royal Flush!

Score: 8

"Hilarious, simple, and fulfilling."

submission: Gates vs. Jobs: The Game!

date: July 18, 2008

Although it is a relatively simple beat 'em up game you are almost too enticed by its charm to notice. The game itself is pretty hilarious and the style of fighting is pretty unique. Gates vs. Jobs: The Game will leave you wanting more, but let's just hope that more is on the way.

PC!

Score: 8

"Interesting storyline but too easy difficulty"

submission: Epsilon

date: June 8, 2008

Epsilon is almost like a Portals-clone. You have a ball that goes through the portals you present on the screen. The gameplay is taken to the next level with features such as freezing the ball in mid-air, having ghost rooms to help you out with the puzzles, and other features. The storyline is pretty interesting and behind the extremely easy puzzles is a very smart story. Although Epsilon is too easy for its own good it is still going to leave quite the impression on any gamer and will have you begging for a sequel to make up for it.

Score: 9

"Elaborate game but sometimes repetitive."

submission: Arcane

date: June 8, 2008

Arcane is a game with a pretty solid but expected storyline that can either suck you in or leave you empty. The gameplay is pretty fun but can get quite repetitive after about 10 matches. Arcane tries to keep the freshness of its replay value consistent by offering different types of matches such as 1v1v1v1v1, 2v2v3, or even 1v2v2 but once you see past that the game can get quite boring. The battles are in real time action and can keep you entertained with its many different weapons and armors. The mechanics are pretty thorough for a flash game, but I have seen better. The sound effects are pretty consistent and don't seem that flawed unless the battle is too intense for its sounds to keep up. The music is sometimes random for what is happening and might not seem to 'mesh' but it is still pretty nice to hear. All in all Arcane is a pretty fun game that is sure to leave the casual, or maybe even the hardcore, gamer fulfilled and maybe wanting a sequel. I know I do.

Score: 9

"Beautiful game to the ears rather than hands."

submission: Music Catch

date: June 7, 2008

Music Catch is a game that will more than likely take your breath away. I was immediately drawn into the game from the moment the first wave of shapes boar onto my screen. I do not have the words to express the amount of pleasure my brain felt upon playing. Music Catch is truly unlike any rhythm game I have ever played. The song starts slow but gradually builds up as the shapes began to correspond with the music. The song is pleasing and very soft, inevitably causing you to hit the red shapes (which are what you are not supposed to touch) as your eyes close to be drifted away. Music Catch is a very simplistic game that is sure to leave you wanting more.

Score: 9

"Although stupid, it's hilarious."

submission: O Bento

date: May 18, 2008

O Bento, in my opinion, is a crappy commerical but it's that same level of crap that makes it hilarious. It is not much to review on except I am now hungry and disturbed from watching.

Score: 7

"Although fun, iDrop 2 is very repetitive."

submission: iDrop 2

date: May 18, 2008

iDrop 2 is a game that I've seen countless times. However, iD 2 adds a twist with the multiplayer. I gave it points for that, even if I do play my games alone.
The music does seem to beat against your brain after a couple of minutes and the game play isn't that exciting either. The style would seem unique to someone who doesn't play many games online but to a true gamer you have played this before.
All in all, there is not much to say about it. You hold the Left or Right control arrow to go in the direction respectively and you press the Up key to jump. That simple. The controls for second player are of course different.
It does seem to drag on but it does offer a few minutes of refreshing play. After that, you will find yourself probably more irritated than entertained.

Score: 6

"Addicting for a few minutes but then gets old."

submission: Run Soldier, Run!

date: May 17, 2008

Run Soldier, Run! is a game where you run from bombs and other obstacles to increase your score. And that is basically it. You start off with 3 soldiers that increase over time as long as you do not receive any hits from the obstacles or bombs. The more soldiers you have the faster your score is increased and vice-versa. The game does keep you occupied for a little while but after the magic is gone you find yourself playing a repetitive game that takes a toll on your nerves. I must say, the atmosphere of war time and battle is created magnificently with the intense music that plays in the background. That is truly the variable that entices you to play. Once you realize that, you will not want to play anymore.
RS, R! is not a bad game but nor is it a good one. If a sequel were made one could say where the potential then could shine but as for this game it is not worth a daily second.

Score: 8

"SpeedAnim:FreedomParty is funny and cute."

submission: ~SpeedAnim:FreedomParty~

date: May 17, 2008

Due to the instructions, SpeedAnim:FreedomParty is not meant to be taken serious at all. Seriously. The story is completely random, if you even count it as a story. SA:FP is funny, cute, and random. The perfect combination for a quick animation. It is nothing that should be taken heavly and just something to watch for a few minutes out of pure boredom, at least in my opinion.

Score: 7

"Although addicting it does get repeptive."

submission: Canyon Shooter

date: May 17, 2008

Canyon Shooter is a game similar to the popular Metal Slug series except instead of being on ground you are dropping from a parachute at a slow pace. Also, the winds seem to guide you and you can almost stay in the air for a long period of time. Did not quite understand the physics of that part. The graphics are even almost identical as well from MS.
The gameplay is very addicting, but after about 10 minutes you kind of get bored holding the left-mouse button down and you find yourself wanting to play something else. This does offer a sense of wartime battle with a great combination of intense sound and consistent music, but once that is over your experience is over.
CS does deliver that fun factor but it just gets old real fast. I recommend playing when you are just that bored or you want to pass the time, but nothing to engage in full blown activity with.
