Data Mining (2018) Review
Data Mining is a poorly thought-out puzzle game, where your success is dependent on the physics cooperating with you. It’s possible for your ball to rapidly lose momentum in a one square space. 2/10

Ball Fall is an entirely RNG-based vertical platformer arcade game. Your life depends on whether the game even gives you a valid path, rather than any skills. 2/10
Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom is a fun, 2D platformer with a variety of abilities and equipment, allowing you to customize your play style on the fly. It’s very well polished. 8/10
Adventures of the Worm is a rather simple puzzle game involving rocks, apples, and TNT. It reminds me a lot of a Windows 95 game that I played, although I can’t recall the name. 5/10
ZomB: Battlegrounds is a battle royale asset flip, with bots that often just stand still or get lost in an area without any players. Controls aren’t clear, and playing online is impossible. 4/10
Morphies Law is the best online shooter I’ve played so far this year. After being plagued by battle royales and dead MOBAs, it feels like a miracle to find something fun, novel and unique. 8/10
Unsolved Mystery Club: Ancient Astronauts is a hidden object game with actual puzzle elements, and an interesting fully-voiced plotline. It’s a bit dated, but it’s well constructed. 6/10
Flaky Bakery is a very fun mix of combat, baking, and selling. If you want to exploit the local economy by killing your customers to resell their purchase, now is the time to do so! 8/10
Ramify is a challenging puzzle game where you can inflate islands, which will shoot out inflating bullets once popped. You only have so many clicks, so location and timing matters. 6/10
Genius Calculator is a very simple mathematical puzzle game, with their own custom operators. It might be fun for number crunchers, but it’s not that great of a game. 3/10
