Well-polished, and with solid mechanics, this is recommended for people who would, at a glance, like this sort of brawler. Ultimately, it’s like Diablo 3 – (2012 game). While a clone in many ways, it’s quite a bit more fun and simple, with subtle extras that make it at least visually unique.

This would be great good, if it were free. It’s just not for me, and I think my tastes have been changing lately.

Slash a things and miss a lot. Get hit a lot. Uninstall.

What a shit fighting system. With a fundamental flaw as glaring as this, there’s no way in hell I’ll play this.

Like scrabble with words, assemble phrases to do varying degrees of insult-damage.

This definitely should appeal to some people, but it doesn’t appeal to me. I think this would be especially attractive to people with an Android phone.

A woman is abducted for a mind-control experiment. Hilarity ensues.

This is not “experimental science fiction”. This is outright horror.

I think I’ve seen this before, but blocked it out of my memory.

An awkward dungeon management game, with walls you can’t dig out, rooms you build but don’t know how much of or what size, and an interface that could only be inspired by a 1980s DOS game.

Absolutely not recommended.

A woman is pulled back into a life of crime, only to learn that what she helped steal has other interested parties.

A mediocre movie which just feels off and awkward. Definitely not recommended.

Olga Kurylenko is either an absolutely awful actor, or playing an absolutely awful character, or maybe both. Probably both.

An operating system most notably on mobile phones, but also found on media boxes.

Fundamentally flawed – It is tethered to Google in as many ways as they’ve made possible. From a time server, to internet traffic compression. From google play requiring an account requiring your verified phone number. From hoops to download and install software from their store. It’s fucking awful.
