Early Access Review
Atmosphere
This game plays with the “too real” card. The initial starting houses are very realistic and can REALLY throw you for a loop in VR when things start flying off the shelves.

I just played a game in the starter house that immediately after opening the front door, a teddy bear plopped on the floor in front of us at the end of the hall by the living room light switch. Fastest ghost find I’ve ever had because we went straight to the toddler room after that.

I could probably rant about endless stories and amazing experiences I’ve had in this game. The one mentioned was within the last hour before writing this obligatory please give me my badge steam review.

IF YOU CANT BOOT THE GAME,
REINSTALL UBISOFT'S UPLAY LAUNCHER

I'll start this off with:
If you want Digital Monopoly then this is not a bad choice. If you buy it on sale for $6, than it is certainly worth it.

Its Monopoly... The same friendship/relationship ender. The same game that makes Thanksgiving or Family Reunions awkward, because little Timmy is sitting in the corner with a knife ready to get back at you for making him trade you two railroads for a red Monopoly. He didn't understand what getting 2 sets of 10 doubles and hopping from 3 of your 4 railroads within 2 turns meant.

There are much better board games out there that don't leave you with or on a hitlist.

Honestly my largest gripe is this heavily relying on the Ubisoft launcher. If the game isnt loading... Either you need to clear the Uplay cache, re-install Uplay, turn off cloud sync, or play offline.

Other primary gripe being the inability to turn off the "auction" feature. Personally never played with that for our house rules. You can abstain from bidding to essentially nullify the auction process. But it is still there.

They did however allow you to pick 1 house rule from a bunch of popular preset ones. Otherwise just classic "authentic" rules. I really appreciate the Free Parking collects all "pay the bank" money in a pot for those who land on it. It is a house favorite that has full animation for the game!

End of the day... 5/10
I feel like it was put together by a graphics team with a good Ubisoft funded budget. They made Monopoly. And not really anything but Monopoly. There are no significant graphics options. Audio will certainly get annoying eventually.

You want fancy custom games? Hope you're happy with only picking 1 house rule.

DLC boards? I expected a lot more than what they have.

Hope your controller is wireless or tiny and easy to catch. You also have to pass the same one around to everyone.

I'd like an app integration as a personal controller/rolling and managing your properties outside of your turn.

I feel like there are a lot of missed opportunities to make something really fun with ways to spice it up using the main brand license. I was hoping for more.

A game that is worth coming back to. The developers actually care, and will respond to any notable issue. Not to mention frequent updates, game balance, and new content.

Warning: If you have any problem with flashy lights or fast moving puzzels this is probably not for you

Super Hexagon is an outstanding fast paced game to play every now and then. A round can literally last 1 second and your goal is to last 60 seconds or more. That said, when I first sat down I felt obligated to spend 1 hour beating all of my friends high scores. If you are one prone to aiming for the top, be prepared to hear "Game Over... AGAIN!" thousands of times. Though I must give props to the sound editors. The voice and music flow so well that it doesnt bug me at all for long sessions.

You can use either a controller or keyboard to move your small triangle around the center as you dodge incoming shapes to the beat of some pumped up music. With levels ranging from "I got this" to "♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥" to "♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥!" Do to difficulty alone, expect this to be something you can play on your spare time for quite a while. For me it is one of the games I boot up if I'm ever using my internet connection to download something as fast as possible but want to keep me entertained.

Final Verdict: This is a twitch puzzler any raver would enjoy.

This is deffinatly a favorite of mine. Its high paced and filled with laughs. i have a feeling the person who made this happens to be quite the troll with a random personality. And I love that. So please give this game a chance.
And remember to spay and neuter your whales.

A game that has gone down in history as being one of the greatest puzzle games ever. Being the first to really use a FPS style to its full potential in a puzzle game world. This has you franticly turning, shooting, jumping, and laughing your ass of in every puzzle. Some argue that the game is so loved only for GLADUS which I have to agree. There is nothing like a psychopathic computer watching your every move.

This game is something everyone needs to experience or at least watch someone else do a playthrough. I'd also highly recommend playing this before the big launch of Portal 2.

Have fun and good luck! The cake is worth it!
