Karma The Dark World Short Review

Karma The Dark World is a first-person cinematic psychological horror game set in 1984, that challenges you to investigate the deepest secrets of suspects minds in a world of espionage and betrayal. The game was developed by Pollard Studio and published by Wired Productions. Below, you can find a list with my thoughts on the game.

- First-person walking sim
- Very interesting but confusing story
- Great atmosphere
- Stunning visuals
- Excellent soundtrack
- Great Voice Acting
- Very good performance, even though it's built in Unreal Engine 5
- Good puzzles where you actually need to think
- No glitched trophies/achievements
- Didn't encounter any bugs in the latest version of the game (1.02)
- Game length: Depends on your playstyle whether you're using guides, reading all the memos, how quickly you solve puzzles, and if you're going for all achievements. It takes like 4-5 hours with a guide and around 10 hours without
- Less gameplay, more cinematic storytelling
- Lack of replayability

My Game Rating 8/10

I've also created a 100% Platinum Walkthrough as well as a separate Collectible Guide for Karma: The Dark World. Check it out and leave some love in the comments!

Phantom Spark Short Review

Phantom Spark is a precision time-trial racer available on PC and consoles, developed by Ghosts and published by Coatsink and Thunderful. I’ve been playing it for the past few days and have unlocked all trophies/achievements on PS5. Below are the pros, cons, and information about the trophies/achievements in the game.

Pros:
- Awesome Soundtrack
- Great Visuals
- Game feels very smooth on PS5
- Easy controls
- Instant reset button that brings you back to the start
- Has a Local Multiplayer
- Addictive

Cons:
- Not a big fan of the leaderboards since you can’t see every player - just your friends, the Top 5, and those close to your time
- Lack of customization

Trophies/Achievements Info:
- Difficulty: 6/10
- Time to 100%: 15-25 Hours (Skill dependent)
- Game Rating: 8/10
- Glitched Trophies/Achievements: 0

It's a pretty fun and addictive game! If you like time trial focused racers, climbing leaderboards, and perfecting tracks for better times, then you should definitely give it a try. The game has 33 tracks (pathways) and 9 Trials to offer.

I’ve recorded all my best Link Level 4 attempts for every pathway. Check them out if you want - maybe you'll find some useful time savers or shortcuts.

Nobody Wants to Die Short Review

Nobody Wants to Die is a future-noir detective game set in a dystopian New York in 2329, releasing for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S on July 17. It's a walking simulator, but a very good one! I completed the game twice, experiencing the good and the bad ending. Below are the pros, cons, and information about the trophies/achievements in the game.

Pros:
- Very well-written and engaging story
- Amazing soundtrack
- Great visuals
- Good voice acting
- Immersive atmosphere
- Runs smoothly on PS5
- Choices affect conversations
- Very fair price
- Charming characters

Cons:
- The detective elements are very linear, you simply walk around and click on what you're told to
- A bit repetitive
- No save option
- No replayability

Trophies/Achievements Info:
- Difficulty: 1/10
- Time to 100%: 4-5 Hours (using my walkthrough), under 3:30 hours possible if you skip dialogues; 10+ hours without using guides
- Game Rating: 8/10
- Glitched Trophies/Achievements: 0
- Playthroughs Needed: 1 (if you have PS+ on PS5 and a USB drive on other platforms, as you need to create a save at a certain point in the game); 2 (if you don't have PS+ or a USB drive)

This game isn’t for everyone! However, if you enjoy walking simulators with a good story, plenty of dialogue, and cutscenes, it’s worth giving a try. For this price the game offers great value.

There are a lot of missable trophies, so if you want to get all trophies/achievements in only 1 playthrough, you can follow my platinum walkthrough.

Still Wakes the Deep Short Review

Still Wakes the Deep is a first-person horror walking simulator set on the Beira D oil rig in the North Sea during 1975. It was developed by The Chinese Room and published by Secret Mode. It's a pretty short but good story game. Here are the things I liked and disliked:

Pros:
- Excellent voice acting and writing
- Great atmosphere
- Great environment design
- Good monster designs
- Good and emotional story

Cons:
- Game is a bit too short
- No replayability
- Gameplay is a bit too simple (it's a walking simulator, with no battles, puzzles, or anything special in terms of gameplay)
- Long loading screens between areas

100% Difficulty: 1/10
Time to 100%: 2-4 Hours (Using my walkthrough), 10+ hours (without a guide)
Game Rating: 7.5/10
Glitched Trophies/Achievements: 0

There are a lot of missable trophies, so if you want to get all trophies/achievements in only 1 playthrough, you can follow my walkthrough. Just make sure to do everything exactly as I do, including all the deaths, rooms I enter, and objects I interact with. Also, read the "General Info" as those things are hard to track from the video and you need to keep in mind when following my walkthrough.

Jack Holmes: Master of Puppets (PS5) Short Review

Jack Holmes: Master of Puppets is an indie horror game developed by just one person (@TonyDevGame). It is a mixture of horror, scares, and farfetched scenarios. I really liked the visuals of the game, the story is interesting, and the atmosphere, especially when you reach the carnival, is great. It takes some time to get to the carnival, but it's worth it. My favorite parts of the game were the Animal Village, Bubu's Funhouse, and the rides. However, there are a few things in the game that could be improved, such as the clunky movement and aiming on the controller. Some hints on what to do would be helpful, as there are times when you feel lost and unsure of where to go or what to look for. Also, it's important to keep in mind that this is an indie title developed by just ONE person, so you can't expect the same production values as games made by teams of hundreds. If you're used to big AAA games and don't like small indie horror games, then this most likely won't be a game for you.

- Game Rating: 7 (with the fact that it has been developed by only one person)
- Platinum Difficulty: 2/10 (Easy Platinum)
- Time to Plat/All Achievements: 2-4 Hours (with Guide)
- Glitched Trophies/Achievements: 0

Also, I've uploaded a platinum speedrun walkthrough of the game on my channel that includes all trophies/achievements, in case you get stuck somewhere in the game.

Sker Ritual Short Review

I've been playing Sker Ritual on PS5 for the past two weeks and have enjoyed every second of it. If you're a fan of CoD Zombies or round-based zombie games, then you should definitely give this standalone zombie game a try. It can be played solo or with up to 4 players and is available on Steam, Xbox X/S, and PS5. It has 4 large and well designed maps, casual and hardcore Easter eggs, lots of unlockables, Wonder Weapons, Perk System, Pack-a-Punch, and lots of other content. A small team of 5 developers is working on the game so it still needs some polishing but they're working hard on fixing everything you report to them and making the game better. I'm hoping to see more from them in the future with either a new game or more content for Sker Ritual.

- Game Rating: 8/10
- Platinum Difficulty: 5/10 (Skill-dependent)
- Time to Plat/All Achievements: 20-40 Hours (Skill-dependent)
- Glitched Trophies/Achievements: 0 (The "Live, Laugh, Love" Trophy was glitched until Update 1.03, Update 1.04 fixed it)

Also, I've uploaded a video guide for every hardcore Easter egg/hidden story (includes text guide in video description), as well as a collectible guide for every map on my channel.
