Controls are objectively worse on keyboard but the game is still perfect. Please add a mac port.

tl;dr 7/10. Phenomenal albeit somewhat repetitive game-play and a short, drab story. It could stand to be just a little bigger.

- I agree with others about game-play being relatively repetitive. This is saved by the fact that you are a shark. Increasing numbers of enemies and rising tensions change your attack style, but few enemies (once learned) present any tremendous challenge.

- Framing the game as a show definitely works but imo would have been better if different infamy villains had animated interview sequences or longer stories with more depth instead of the tangential flavor text we got.

- I enjoyed doing hunts and revenges, so I hit the soft size cap quickly. Doing the story all at once made the animated sequences feel even shorter. The sudden leap from soft size cap to hard cap felt unearned and could probably have been fixed by stopping leveling at the size cap (also providing extra incentive to continue the story).

- More mutations that do zanier things would have been good. This game could have definitely been like 1.3x as big. If I pick up Truth Quest on sale maybe it will quench my thirst somewhat.

Not worth the price. Honestly worth a lot more. Even though it's short, it was probably the best hour I spent on a game all week.

Fantastic game. Better than Fallout

An amazing game that will leave you wanting more
If you don't like puzzles, this probably isn't for you

Assassin's Creed 4 is fantastic. While Edward's Assassinship is debatable, this games rank as one of the best in the franchise is absolutely not. The open world, with stunning exploration sequences are undoubtedly some of the best parts. It is worth noting that while fun at first, the sea battles easily become repetitive, but the biggest ones will have you on the edge of your seat. One of the few things I'd like to have seen more of is crafting; this game only features it to upgrade suits and weapons, and only using animals.

Fantastic Game to play with Friends (as the title implies), but it's not great for singleplayer, and it only recently supported offline play. Hoops is totally wack, and there's a lot still in developement, but it remains a great game.

Stardew Valley is a fantastic game! As soon as I bought it, I played for seven hours. While the farming portion of the game is important to a lot of the story, you can also fish (which is hell, but almost worth it), mine, fight monsters, and occasionally have an Easter egg hunt (in the literal sense). Since it's not usually a combat-based game, the combat system is based off the tool system, and can be a little finicky. The game is incredibly hard if you don't build a chest very quickly, and after that the initially small backpack can be annoying. All in all, these few issues are easily overlooked, as Stardew Valley is one of the most addictive (non-flash) PC games I've ever had the pleasure to play.
NOTE: I got the game on sale for only $8.99, but it's definitely worth $14.99. It is also helpful that its multi-platform.

BattleBlock Theater is...hard to describe. It's awsome, but strange. Hard to beat, but simple. It's possibly one of the best puzzle games I have ever played. It's also great to buy with Castle Crashers, because you get cool new things in both for having the other.

The humor is also, while more than a little crude, quite funny. With fun wordplay as well.
