The format of these posts is simple: let’s discuss a specific game or series!
The Steam Autumn Sale is upon us, and I got the biggest amount of games I’ve ever bought in a single sale: 50!
Let’s discuss UFO 50. What is your favorite game in the collection? What game did you spend most of your time on? What do you like about it? What doesn’t work for you? Feel free to share anything that comes up and react to other comments. Let’s get the conversation going!
If you have any recommendations for games or series for the next post(s), please feel free to DM me or add it in a comment here (no guarantees of course).

I read a lot about it and sounded like it would be very good stuff Bought it and played for just under 2 hours. Some games I played for quite a bit and others I just quit after like 5 minutes. Refunded.
I grew up with a NES and have played games since I was 4 so I have had my fair share of games like this but I just can’t stand these old games any more. There is nothing fun for me in them as I think they are just tedious. I don’t know, it feels like I am the only person not liking this game but that is okay. I gave it a try and really looked for something that would catch me by nope. Afterwards I have watched some streams of it and just concluded that no, even if I would have given it more time I would not have found it fun.
Nah I feel you. Grew up with the NES as well. I played for a few hours and then I bounced off it. I think I’ll play it some more at one point. I love that it exists, I love the idea of it, but playing it leaves me pretty neutral.
Exactly this. I love that it exists, that someone took a chance in making it and that it is successful. Just not for me :)
Id say a 1/3 of the games had NESHard energy. Some reviewers even said the first game listed was probably the worst experience for someone to play and starts people off with a bad taste.
I forced myself to play single game and absolutely found 10 games that were fascinating.
I also wonder if I approached it from a budding game developer, and how they recreated some modern experiences in a pure NES environment.
