Enshrouded Demo Review

The most popular game on this October's Steam Next Fest is this survival game called Enshrouded that borrows some ideas from amazing games like Valheim and even adds some sprinkles of Dark Souls with its boss fights. I didn't get to play the game in full as I only had 8 hours to see as much content as possible. Which this game really doesn't want you to do as it's clearly made to be enjoyed slowly and see everything it has to offer. Also, something to note is that you get 8 hours per character so I could just make a new

Resurrect one fallen Daughter through the sacrifice of another. Strap in for a brutal battle where victories are difficult if not impossible to obtain.

It’s charming, fun, with a cute pixel art style, albeit a little repetitive at times.Little NightmaresDeceptively simple and unabashedly sweet,

Kinetic Storm Review

Kinetic Storm by Broken Teapot Studios Inc. is a fun and exciting action roguelike, bullet hell type of game that can easily suck you in for hours at a time. It has a sci-fi feel to it, and I have to say, they did a great job on this demo.The graphics are great and I really enjoyed the almost old-school type of feel to them. The enemies are well done and get more intense as you progress through the game. Some are just more powerful and cause more damage, and others come at you in massive swarms. Either way, they create
