#MiniReview Weedcraft, Inc is a management game to my liking: you can do everything, but there’s so much to do tasks have to be delegated albeit in a less efficient manner than if you perform them manually. Also margins seem tight selling pot, either legally or not?

#MiniReview Life Is Hard (2021) is a side-scrolling survival city builder game that kicked my ass for all the wrong reasons. A slew of bugs that escaped the Early Access phase, abysmal documentation about in-game concepts and ultimately limited choices made it hard to like.

#MiniReview I beat the final boss of Salt and Sanctuary (2016) and I feel good putting the game down. As my first Dark Souls-like game, I wasn't expecting to go that far, but it turned out to be rather forgiving even if I became lost in the sprawling map towards the end. #videogames

Returning to a tradition I started in 2018 on my penultimate transatlantic flight, here's another selection of rapid-fire reviews of movies I watched during the round-trip to France over the holidays. #MiniReview #Movies

Holidays 2021 transatlantic flight movie review – MrPetovan.com

I have been taking transatlantic flights several times since 2009, and every time I'm barely able to sleep during the 7 or 8 hours (depending on the direction) that the flight lasts for.

#MiniReview Stranger Things 3: The Game (2019) is meant to complement the third season of the eponymous TV shows. With cute pixel art and spacy synthwave, it hits the right aesthetic notes, but combat proved to be too fast-paced for me to keep up. #videogames

#MiniReview Mainlining (2017) by Sam Read is a fun, cute and short "point and click hacking adventure" that would benefit from better feedback from arrest mistakes and a few placeholder variable fixes. #videogames

Mainlining on Steam

After MI7 has been hacked, your primary goal is to bring a cyber-criminal network to justice. Played entirely from within the environment of your computer's desktop, Mainlining is a thrilling point and click hacking adventure that features a gripping…

#MiniReview Deus Ex: Human Revolution - The Missing Link is a standalone DLC with more of the same from the base game: comically easy stealth (which I enjoy) and cutscene to a room full of enemies (which I don't). It is now included in the Director's Cut of the base game.

#videogames #MiniReview I just binge-played Frog Detective 1 and 2 by @gracebruxner and while both are very short, the dialogs were hilarious (at least to me) with no filler. Looking forward to Frog Detective 3!

#videogames #MiniReview Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas is a shorter Finnish indie take on The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. Clunky at times, uneven boss fights, but I had to look up a guide only thrice over my 9 hour playthrough so it's pretty good for me with adventure games.

#MiniReview #Cinema Today I watched Infinite (2021), an Antoine Fuqua action flick starring Mark Wahlberg, and I've never seen a #movie so inadvertently and completely void the villain's main motive halfway through it. The rest of the movie was hard to watch.

#MiniReview #videogames I just finished DreamBreak by Aist Studio in just above 90 minutes and I must admit I'm conflicted. Pixel art and music are top notch, but controls are clunky, mini-games repetitive, just a tad too long and the story is shallow. And yet I leave the game with a faint smile, which is more than I can say about most games I've played.

I'd say it's worth the couple dollars you can buy it for during Steam sales with the soundtrack.

#MiniReview #Movie I do not believe things made by women are better just because they're women, but I do believe Birds of Prey: And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn (2020) is so (so!) much better than Suicide Squad (2016) specifically because director Cathy Yan and especially writer Christina Hodson are women.
