SGBCC Day twelve – Eets
This is day twelve of my Lent 2013 Steam Game Back Catalogue Challenge. Eets is billed as Lemmings-esque gameplay, but I just couldn’t get into it. Maybe I just haven’t given it enough time. Maybe I was expecting something else. … Continue reading
SGBCC Day ten – Dungeons of Dredmor
This is day ten of my Lent 2013 Steam Game Back Catalogue Challenge. Dungeons of Dredmor is the kind of game that I will never be any good at. In fact, I will probably never even be mediocre at it … Continue reading
SGBCC Day Nine – Dear Esther
This is day nine of my Lent 2013 Steam Game Back Catalogue Challenge. I knew that I’d like Dear Esther but I was worried about pacing. About getting lost. About hours of wandering, having missed the right turning, not spotted … Continue reading
SGBCC Day eight – Chantelise
This is day eight of my Lent 2013 Steam Game Back Catalogue Challenge. Today’s game was Chantelise – A Tale of Two Sisters, an ARPG. I was really looking forward to this because I don’t really play many games like … Continue reading
SGBCC Day seven – Cargo! – The quest for gravity
This is day seven of my Lent 2013 Steam Game Back Catalogue Challenge. Today’s game was Cargo! The Quest for Gravity which I remember being quite excited about – perhaps because the weirdy little people and the island setting made … Continue reading

SGBCC Day Two: Anna
This is day two of my Lent 2013 Steam Game Back Catalogue Challenge. I probably won’t be giving Anna a full hour, as it is already after midnight as I boot it up. I have been unable to play it … Continue reading

SGBCC – Day One: A.R.E.S. – Extinction Agenda
This is day one of my Lent 2013 Steam Game Back Catalogue Challenge. A.R.E.S. – Extinction Agenda is a side-scrolling shooter – you play Ares, a robot immune to a weird gas that has troubled at least two expeditions to … Continue reading
Lent 2013 – The Steam Game Back Catalogue Challenge
Last year, for Lent, rather than give up something negative (chocolate, alcohol, swearing, cake), I decided to do something positive each day instead. I read, and shared, a poem every day. This year I wanted to do something similar, so … Continue reading
