I can say with a fair amount of confidence I never had this much fun when I was still alive.
This game is chaos. Delightful, wretched, unhinged, beautiful, magical, maddening chaos.
If you’ve ever prayed that Firefly would be turned into an action-packed space sim, just pour yourself a tall glass of bourbon and strap in, pardner.
Arkham Horror is a vile, wicked slog through the demon-infested streets of Arkham, Massachusetts — a favorite haunt of the most wretched beasties imaginable. The game is cruel, unrelenting, wildly unfair, and will probably murder you and your friends in a manner not unlike being slowly flayed alive while shreds of your sanity catch fire and ooze away. And yes, it’s one of my favorites.
Okay! Okay, okay, okay. I feel really, REEEEEALLY bad saying this, but I LOVE THIS GAME. I shouldn’t! I know! I knooooooow! I’m a monster! Oh, right, you probably haven’t played it.
Okay, Tharsis is an EXCELLENT game… in concept.
However, in execution it is a relentless, soul-blasting exercise in absolute and utter hopelessness. The fact that there is a HARD mode beyond the standard NORMAL mode is comparable to saying that the sixth circle of hell isn’t so bad because technically there’s something worse.
Pandemic set the baseline for co-op games in my world. It’s brutal, challenging, fun, victorious, and horrific all at the same time. That constant back-and-forth shudder is precisely what makes the game so goddamn amazing.
FTL is and always will be in my top 3 games of all time.
I am Boss Monster’s prey. It’s adorable, it’s cruel, it has frickin’ 8-bit art! What’s not to love? I adore being the bad guy, and as you may have guessed by the title, you are exactly that. So yes, thank you! I’ll gladly play a few rounds.
