When I rate games, I like to think of the 1-10 scale primarily as a measure of how well a game accomplishes what it sets out to be. With that in mind, I have to give Hylics a perfect 10, because Hylics is completely and unapologetically itself.
From the very start of the game, I knew I was in for something special. The atmosphere of Wayne's house alone is mesmerizing. The somber yet hopeful music, with its minimal...

Wonderfully silly the whole way through! Especially good for a game that's about one Castration Movie long

Sometimes the most interesting things hide behind the most unassuming packages. Hylics was published in 2015 and can be described as a traditional JRPG, although in the steam page it is described as a “recreational program”, made with the RPGmaker engine, but it is filled with creative choices not often seen in games.
The game consists of the exploration of surrealistic dreamscapes, interaction with characters...

i really, really dig this ♥♥♥♥ so far. the atmosphere mixes nicely with IPA and the characters/combat systems are as relaxing as they are challenging to face.
this game is a warm hug. on second thought, maybe that's the cannabis and IPA.

A wonderfully weird game. Had to look up a guide to finish it but even then it was such an experience. I get why this is my friend's comfort game now

I hate to be that guy but as for this game... I don't see why it's such a cult classic. There's absolutely zero context for anything, dialogue is 90% randomized nonsense, gameplay is okay I suppose, but it's a really cut and dry affair. The only stand-out feature is the unique artstyle. Had I known that I would've seriously reconsidered, but if you have a couple spare bucks and couple spare hours you can see for...

Proof that quality and length aren't proportional. Like, this game is SHORT. You can get through it all in a little under 3 hours, but what it has to offer is just so unique and visually stunning, you're probably never gonna forget it. The lovingly crafted claymation art-style, the music, the ATMOSPHERE. I could just watch the main guy's goofy walk cycle on repeat for that time and be totally satisfied, it's that...

I've only played this game for like an hour and I FELL IN LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT. Genuinely the most bizarre yet charming gaming experience I've had in a long time. 10/10 so far, a bit complicated to get the hang of though
