Random Steam Games [Week of 11/21/22–11/27/22]
The four developers of Group Six Games had a legitimately good idea for an edutainment / casual game. Unfortunately, the gameplay is marred by imprecise controls, odd hit boxes, problematic AI, and a relative lack of educational content. It feels like someone’s semester undergraduate project or first New Grounds release moreso than a legitimate Steam game. It’s at least free-to-play, though.

There are FMV sequences of a dog fetching and a human throwing one of four objects. That’s it. You don’t really get to interact with the video at all and it’s possible to make it through all of the content twice and still not have enough minutes to post a Steam review. The concept is unique but it’s execution is awful.

A surprisingly not bad 2D platformer rougelike! It’s fairly simplistic and some of the spawns and level design aspects are far from perfect, but it’s still fun. It’s also free!
