Dread X Collection

The first Dread X Collection isn't as good as later ones... it includes some really janky ones.

leave rotgut for last istg worst game in the collection

Interesting, very rough and raw experience

[h1]Game Reviews[/h1] (minor spoilers ahead) [i]The Pay is Nice[/i]: [b]4/10[/b] [list] [*]Way too cryptic to be enjoyable imo [*]Optimization nightmare, game lags for no reason [*]The medication puzzle is interesting, I actually would have preferred a game fully centered around that, though technical execution isn't perfect [/list] Overall, game isn't very interesting [i]Don't Go Out[/i]: [b]6/10[/b] [list] [*]First impression was very poor, but in the end, the idea is interesting and execution is pretty good [*]Card part isn't pushed enough, but still pretty cool [*]Still suffers from lack of visibility, you can get killed by stuff other than obvious enemies without being able to see, and you're left wondering why [/list] [i]Hand of Doom[/i]: [b]9/10[/b] [list] [*]Loved the concept and execution [*]Actually made me wanna play the full game [*]Wished it was longer though [*]Loved the way you cast spells [*]Visuals typical Torple Dook, overall I had a lot of fun [/list] [i]Summer Night[/i]: [b]8/10[/b] [list] [*]Fun little game, with lots of surprises [*]Message actually spoke to me, maybe why I liked it so much, as opposed to most reviews [/list] [i]The Outsiders[/i]: [b]2/10[/b] [list] [*]Perfect example of an interesting game design concept poorly executed [*][spoiler]First loop is a bore, having to wait 10+ min running in circles in an empty house, just to start the loop going and having a few clues, just to realise you actually need multiple pointless runs to have enough clues to finish the game is just tedious and painful[/spoiler] [*]The shed route is also just boring and painful to navigate, just why [*]Also, [spoiler]wtf was that ending???? No one talks about it, but it was absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥???? Like, I see an anti-specism message, and maybe one against the entertainment lobby, but execution is horrendous[/spoiler] [/list] [i]Mr Bucket Told Me To[/i]: [b]4/10[/b] [list] [*]Not bad per se, just very uninteresting [/list] [i]ROTGUT[/i]: [b]0/10[/b] [list] [*]The single worst video game "experience" I ever had to lay my eyes upon [/list] [i]The Pony Factory[/i]: [b]5/10[/b] [list] [*]Good homage to Doom 3, but way too frustrating to be fully enjoyable [*]With telescopic melee attacks and homing ranged attacks, game is frustrating to play (maybe it's just skill/PC issue, but I just didn't enjoy the experience) [*][spoiler]Rerun every level backwards for the end is just cheap[/spoiler] [*]It's good, don't get me wrong, but I feel like people are overhyping it just because it's from DUSK and Iron Lung's dev (great games btw) [/list] [i]Shatter[/i]: [b]7/10[/b] [list] [*]Honestly, I've seen the game receive a lot of ♥♥♥♥ from other reviews, but I actually liked it [*]Visually and thematically interesting, gameplay simple yet no major hassles, enjoyable experience [/list] [i]Carthanc[/i]: [b]1/10[/b] [list] [*]Frustrating gameplay, platforming way too aproximative and slippery [*]Difficulty is profoundly stupid [*]While not to Rotgut levels, it's still fairly ugly, especially the TRON-like enemies [*]Feels like the game just lacks meaning and taste [/list] [i]Hub[/i]: [b]X/10[/b] [list] [*]No mini-games on the hub unlike the other collections [*]Story was pretty interesting though [/list] Overall I can't recommend this collection in good faith, especially compared to the other ones which all outshine this one + Most good games from this collection are available in standalone, so go check them out instead!

Most of the games in this collection are either uninteresting, badly implemented, a total joke (Rotgut) or a mixture of those things. The only two games I actually enjoyed are The Pony Factory and Summer Night but I wouldn't recommend buying this collection to play them, especially since The Pony Factory is a standalone game available on Steam
