500 Word Game Reviews: Neo Cab

March 8, 2021

Game review time~ Another newer visual novel, though very different from Monster Prom. I seem to be favouring more casual games at the moment, though I do have plenty of old school RPGs on the backlog that I hope to get to before the end of the year!

500 Word Game Reviews: Monster Prom

February 14, 2021

Valentine’s Day. Not the most relevant of holidays for me, but if sites are going to use it as an excuse to give me free games, I’m all for it! If the following review catches your interest, anyone with an Amazon Prime subscription can grab Monster Prom from Prime Gaming until March 1st, which is where I got it. It’s also 69% off (heyo) on both GOG.com and Steam at the time of writing.

(#NotSponsored, in case that needed to be stated on a such a small, fortnightly blog). 😛

Oh, and since being able to read the text matters for visual novels, clicking or opening the images in another tab should make them bigger once again now! I swear, every redesign WordPress goes through makes that more awkward to do.

500 Word Game Reviews: Heaven Will Be Mine

June 14, 2020

It’s Pride Month… supposedly, though the sudden stripping away of rights both here and in the USA haven’t put me in the mood for celebrations. Time for some gaming escapism, I guess?

As ever, newer HD games with lots of text don’t mix well with this blog layout, but opening the images in a new tab should work now at least.

500 Word Game Reviews: one night, hot springs

June 16, 2019

Since it’s Pride month, and since one of the only comments I’ve received on my TSR thread all year was ‘review new stuff!’, here’s something I stumbled across a while back~

As ever, I hope the text is readable at these lower image resolutions! If not, at least this one costs nothing to download if you want a closer look.

500 Word Game Reviews: We Know the Devil

August 18, 2018

No post next week, as I’m away visiting relatives. Expect my mid-season anime thoughts in early September… where is this year disappearing to?

Anyway, this is the only visual novel I’ve ever played… read? Experienced. And it isn’t even related to an anime series, though there are obvious influences from and references to Sailor Moon, among other things. 😀

I can’t do much about the whole image resizing thing, so if you want a closer look at the screenshots, open the image in a new tab and delete the ‘?w=450’ part.
