Between Time: Escape Room & Citizen Sleeper + 4 More - Steam Deck Tested | Jun 21

Still not 100% sure how I feel about this one. On my first test run I didn't really like it, to be honest. On my second run I got more into it, but the text-heavy gameplay kind of puts me off. It's also a bit too slow-paced for me, so it most likely won't be getting added to my backlog. But if you like narrative-focused, RPG-type games, then this is one you'll want to try out.

At first this was another game where I was like, nah, whatever, I'll test it then move on to the next. Little did I know I would get sucked in like I did with Guitar Hero back in the day! I haven't played a game like this before, and I do like shooters, so having to shoot to a beat instead of just blasting away is new to me. Once I got the hang of it, it was actually quite fun. Next time I spin it up I might try importing a song to see how it plays, hahaha, now just to decide which song, hmmmm?

After finishing Tested on Humans: Escape Room this week, I couldn't wait to get my hands on this one! Needless to say, I was sucked in from the first puzzle. Luckily it was the last one I tested, as it turned into a game session instead. If you enjoy puzzles and a game you can pick up and put down, then this is one for you. I'm looking forward to getting back to it and revisiting previous giveaways 60 Minutes to Extinction: Escape Room and Palindrome Syndrome: Escape Room. I really do love these types of games!

If you enjoyed Space Grunts then you'll most likely enjoy the next installment. It's a little different, as it incorporates a deck-building system. I'm going to be honest, it threw me a bit at first, but after some testing I got the hang of it. Now, I usually enjoy deck-building games, but unfortunately I wasn't a fan of this one. I prefer the previous game's combat style, but I do recommend you give it a go, as it still has the same feel as Space Grunts, just with a bit of a twist.

This was another game I wasn't sure of at first, but it grew on me the more I played. It reminded me of Oddsparks and Kamaeru in look and feel. It's a cozy farm shop game that gives you side quests helping out the local villagers. Normally I do enjoy these games, but maybe my concentration was focussed on testing the new Escape game. Worth a try if you like these cute, cozy sim games.

This game is something more in Eben's taste, or my brother's. Think old school Total War type game, but focussing on the era of rifles. There are a range of battle scenarios to choose from, and the one I tested took place during the American Civil War. As it's a DOS game it only works on Junk Store Pro, just so you know. This one won't be making it onto my backlog or want-to-play list unfortunately, but maybe it'll make it onto Eben's.
