Angela’s Odyssey

-


Sorry this post is getting out late, this past week was insane. Anyways, I hope you’re all staying healthy and sane with this virus and quarantine thing going on. Scary stuff, but that’s why we have video games; to distract us from this world! Anyway, let’s begin with the review!
Today I will be reviewing a short point & click game, available for free on STEAM. Said game is titled Angela’s Odyssey. This game is so stinking adorable! I’m not entirely sure of what the storyline is supposed to be, but that’s pretty much the only downside to this beautiful and brightly colored game.
Plot-wise, what I do know, is that you follow a girl, who turns into a fox. That's it. That's all I know. In all reality, just knowing this about the story doesn't bother me, due to the fact that the rest of the game is really good!
When I first saw this game, I was thinking it would be a controller/WASD controlled game,not a point and click. However, I think this works for the game, due to how simple the rest of the game is.
There's not really much in the way of challenges, except for an epic battle with a T-Rex that took me a while to figure out. There are a few other puzzle aspects, but they aren't all that difficult.
This game is available for FREE on STEAM and I highly recommend it if you're looking for a short time killer. I think play-through took me about 20 minutes.
Sorry that this review is so short. Things in life have been crazy with work and the virus. The place where I work is closed down for the next two weeks, at least, but I still have to go in. Since it's closed, it will give me more time to work on writing up reviews, so that I can hopefully have them on a more regular basis. Thank you for your patience!

Hope Lake: What Happened at this Boarding School?

      Hope Lake is a point-and-click adventure about a mystery surrounding the disappearances of girls from the boarding school, several years after the school had been abandoned and the girls grown up. The untimely death of the Governess plays a key role in finding out the mystery of the missing girls. You play as Detective Kelly Wells, who is determined to figure out what is going on.     I personally LOVED this game. Normally I don't enjoy hidden item games, but the way they use that mixed with how they also include puzzles and mystery makes for a great game. Some of the puzzles were easy, some had mild difficulty, and then there were 2-3 that I needed help on. Thankfully my boyfriend is better at certain puzzles than I am and was able to help me with those extra difficult ones.     I really enjoyed the storyline as well. It took twists and turns that I wasn't expecting and built up the world to make a very immersive for the whole experience. The whole experience took me abo

A Game Like No Other...

       Available for free on PS4, PS5, Epic Games, and STEAM, The Light in the Darkness is a dark and educational game developed by Luc Bernard. Bernard has a mission to remind people of the events of the Holocaust, so that the victims and history are not forgotten. Bernard's grandmother was actually a caretaker who looked after children who came off the Kindertransport in the UK.      The Kindertransport is German for "Children Transport". The UK took nearly 10,000 children, most who were Jewish, from Germany, Austria, Czechoslovakia, Poland, and the Free City of Danzing. These children were taken from Nazi controlled territories during the 9 months before the start of WW2. Often times these children were the only survivors of their family following the Holocaust.                  Why I Made It: Luc Bernard, Director of The Light in the Darkness (mopop.org)     This being said, it's understandable that Bernard wants to educate people on this historical event that aff

Times Gamers Passed Unexpectedly

    So in my last post, I talked about horrible crimes associated with video games. Well, I've decided to explore the other dark side of that; unexpected deaths. This post will mostly be focusing on untimely deaths of beloved gamers, due to video games. I will only be covering a small handful of these cases, but you can easily find other cases online. Again, a trigger warning is in place for this post, as it still contains content that some readers may find distressing. Also, if you read any, read Calvin Riley's case. You may just be able to help bring an unknown killer to justice. Hsieh     Hsieh, his surname, was a 32 year old gamer from Taiwan. He lived in the second largest city, Kaohsiung. He spent much of his time at internet cafes, and his family stated that he often would disappear for 2-3 days to spend time at these cafes, as he was unemployed and felt this was the only place he could go. Unfortunately, in 2015, a staff member at the café found Hsieh motionless, at one
