April Games
This is kind of a mixed bag review of the “five best” games review.
At least one game is a platformer-only game. There may be more, but it’s hard to tell.
In past reviews you used to be able to click on individual games to see both where they can be bought and what platforms were supported. Not so this review. Of the four other games, two seem to be in the retro-pixel style that I do not like. Of the other two, one seems to use “current” graphics. The other is hard to tell what its graphic style is since it seems to primarily show atmospheric backgrounds.
So, one I can’t play. Two I won’t play. And two I don’t know if I can play. I love these monthly posts. But I don’t think this was one of the best.
For whom the games toll,
they toll for thee.
Chinatown Detective Agency Looks OK, not great, but OK. I may play it. The rest of the games are a pass for me.
I enjoy playing adventure games on my Alienware M17 r4 and my Nintendo Switch OLED.
Played the Chinatown Detective Agency demo a long while ago. There’s two worrying things about it for me:
a) Stat management. Like, you’re supposed to manage time/money/energy. The demo was too short whether to figure out what impact that’d have, and the game devs says they have redesigned it, but it might still be a real nuisance.
b) It requires actual Google research to solve puzzles. Which is probably fine if you play the game immediately but I’m not sure whether that’s a good idea still a few months down the line ...
I’m taking a wait-and-see approach with this one. Though the setting and such are really nice. And it’s coming today already

Thanks for the post. After reading this, I’m defiantly going to read some reviews before buying it.
