Animals consume each other, become obese
First Impressions - Tumbling Zoo-rock it (Demo)

Published on March 20, 2023 Review

Tumbling Zoo-rock it, is a consumption game reminiscent of .io games such as agar.io and hole.io where you need to consume food and other players to make yourselves bigger, with the ultimate goal of becoming the biggest player on the map by the timer ends.

The game basically adopts the same formula and adds some new changes to it that makes players put in more work in order to consume other players.

Players can control different kinds of animals (depending on their choice) that are unlockable via various in-game currencies, and some of them will have a different minor difference like stats and attributes, providing variety and some form of added layer to the consumption game format, some are just pure cosmetic

Tumbling Zoo-rock it also features a skill progression system in the form of Zoo that houses animal pens for different types of animals. I noticed four different kinds of pens that divide the roster of playable animals.

Upgrading each pen will result in upgrading the stats and attributes of that animal type. It’s a very rudimentary zoo management element for now, but it’s a nice added flavor for the core IO gameplay.

So far, Tumbling Zoo-rock it is simple and fun. There is a nice twist added to the .io consumption gameplay which makes the game more dynamic and exciting. Unfortunately I could not play a lot more than I wanted because of the energy system, but if you’re okay with small bits of gaming from time to time, it probably won’t bother you.

The original Hades perfected the rogue-lite formula with kickass combat, endless procedural mechanics, and clever, character-driven storytelling. Yet, incredibly, Hades II has managed to top every single aspect of the first game and made them better.

Masterclass in Anti-Fatigue Open World Design | Ghost of Yotei Review

Ghost of Yotei, the newest installment in the acclaimed feudal Japan action series, shifts the stage to Ezo/Hokkaido Japan, introducing a new protagonist, Atsu, and a razor-sharp revenge narrative. Set during a tumultuous period, the game follows Atsu as she embraces the path of the Ghost to hunt down her targets. While built upon the foundations of its predecessors, Yotei immediately distinguishes itself by prioritizing refined gameplay flow and anti-fatigue design over overwhelming map density, setting it up as a truly modern open-world experience.

Slice-of-life turned romantic fantasy against a 90’s Indonesian backdrop | A Space for the Unbound

A Space for the Unbound is the story of a boy and a girl — both with supernatural powers — in a slice-of-life turned fantasy romance adventure against a 90’s Indonesian backdrop. A nice change of setting from the usual Japanese-themed similar works of art, like the popular Makoto Shinkai Anime movies Your Name and Weathering with You, all embodied in video game format.
