ArcaniA Gothic IV – Another nice adventure RPG for a medieval fantasy world. The dialogue could use some improvement, and there’s an unnatural pause between people speaking, I’m not sure if that’s the game’s fault or if it was just running slowly on this machine. There’s a good amount of demo, but it feels like it hardly even touches on the main storyline of the game, and therefore doesn’t draw the player in as the real game could. Also the mouse sensitivity is way too high, I had it at the lowest setting and could still spin my character 360 degrees fast enough he should get dizzy.
NyxQuest – The demo was very short, seems like a well made puzzle game, but not many puzzles were introduced in the demo, and those that were introduced, were very easy to solve.
Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light – Wow... I thought Indiana Jones was cool until I saw some of the traps laid out in this game. As the first game I played with Lara as the main character, I found it a good mix of puzzle solving and combat, with the former presenting challenging puzzles. Although the ones in the demo were solvable without much hard thinking, the challenge curve of puzzles presented promise difficult puzzles in the levels to come. The combat, although limited to 2 monster types and 2 weapons in the demo, also promises potential.
