The Town with the Cutest Mayor - Stinkytown

Image
       O.M.G! This game has quickly become one of my favorite one shot games. You play as the mayor of Stinkytown, an absolutely adorable possum, simply called Mayor. In this game, Mayor has a really big problem. His whole world has gone grey! It has grown gross and smelly after our poor Mayor had a downward spiral, and it's our job to help clean it up.     To clean each location, you must complete a mini game related to that room. So for example, when cleaning the bedroom, you have to organize the stuffed animals in order to bring the color back to it. It's a super short game, but extremely enjoyable.     The first time I played this game, I thought it was just about a little possum mayor cleaning up his town, but the more I thought about it after the game, I realized that the dev may have had a deeper meaning to it.      Now this may just be me looking into it too much, but I think it's a valid thought for what may be deeper to th...

12 Hour Museum

Image
       12 Hour Museum came out when finding anomaly games were extra popular. Normally, I don't care for "find the anomaly" games, but this one caught my interest, as I love museums. You play as an unnamed male, who was knocked out in an accident. He wakes up in this museum and everything seems normal, until nightfall.      The goal is to survive the night by finding the anomaly each hour. You must find the anomaly before time runs out, and find 12 in a row or else you restart the count. There are a total of 45 different anomalies in the game, some being harder to find than others. My favorite ones to find were the ones that changed the paintings.      The game consists of 7 different endings, which are affected by the way you play. Once you find all endings and all 45 anomalies, an extra mode is unlocked and adds 54 additional anomalies. The first playthrough takes about 30 minutes on average, but once you get extras and work on clearin...

Stray Cats in Cozy Town + Purrr

Image
     Stray Cats in a Cozy Town is a super cute hidden item game where your goal is to find all the kitties hidden around town. You can also search for water buckets to make sure the cats all stay hydrated. This game took me about an hours to complete (there's ALOT of cats).      This game is free to play on STEAM, but does have a paid DLC called Night Lights, where all the proceeds go to helping stray cats. The DLC is about $2.00, so for skipping Starbucks for even just 1 day, you can help a stray kitty AND get a absolutely adorable game! Overall, this game may not have much to it, with being a find it game, but it is a treasured addition to the hidden cats game genre! There are so many hidden cat games out there that it has become its own full genre now. Most are free to play, with paid DLCs or additional content. It's a genre that I hadn't been 100% sold on at the start, but the more I've been playing them, the more they have grown on me, especially when ...

Sketchy Individuals

Image
  https://shawcat.itch.io/sketchy-individuals My husband and I came across this game when we saw it pop up in a YouTube video. We watched through the first level before we both realized we wanted to play it. It strongly reminded me of the game Fingered, which I've reviewed in an earlier post. In this game, you play as a police sketch artist, tasked with drawing the criminals described by their victims. Don't worry, there's no actual drawing involved haha. You go through each description, picking the option that best fits with what the victim says, then looking at the line up to best match your drawing. There are 10 levels, each progressively getting harder and harder. What bothered me the most was that it didn't tell you if you got the person right or wrong at the end of each level. At the end of the game, you find out how many you got wrong and how many you got right. The whole playthrough took me about 15 - 20 minutes in total, so relatively short, but lots of fun! Th...

31 Days of Spooks: Days 9-18

Image
Hey guys, I'm so sorry I missed so many days... Things have been crazy with family birthdays, bridal shower, a new job, and more. Hopefully I'll be able to catch up after this post!  9th - Cooking Mama https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/470028 Cooking Mama is known world wide and is an amazing game based around cooking. Well, this version is a little different. This Cooking Mama game has a dark twist where you're preparing a turkey and gravey. This game was created by PETA, so that should say something about the content. Personally, I liked this game. I was first introduced to it when I saw Jacksepticeye play it. Some parts of it were more difficult, especially with the timer, but overall, it's a nice little homage to the Cooking Mama franchise. 10th - Little Bus Ride of Horror https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/443368 So my dumb brain thought that this was a game. I was wrong. Turns out it is actually a little comic book. I already had it written into the plan ...

Father's Day Review - Dad Joke Emoji Puzzle

*Posting late because my phone decided to not work and I just realized it 🤦🏻‍♀️      In honor of Father's Day, I thought this would be the perfect review! Dad Joke Emoji Puzzle is a super simple game, where you fill in the blanks with emojis to solve the dad joke. Living in a home where both my dad and younger brother breathe dad jokes constantly, this game is fairly simple, and makes me feel right at home. It's not a super in depth game, but it's perfect for a little time killer if you're waiting at the doctor's or just want to unwind before bed. As much as I roll my eyes at my family's dad jokes, I really enjoy this game and recommend it for anyone who loves dad jokes! I know it was a short review, but I couldn't pass up the perfect Father's Day post 😊 Happy Gaming!
