The Magic Circle: Gold Edition

Its a great storyline with excellent voiceovers and easy to follow tutorial. What I appreciated most was the ability to program and control my fellow in game characters/monsters with ease , albeit it was difficult in choosing which characters to strip of their command lines to supply to my other monstrosities in the making. All in all, it was worth the 15-20 dollars I had to spend.

Very interesting. Mixes mild puzzles with an intriguing and very meta story about game development. Plenty to explore but can be knocked out in a couple of hours.

i have to say this is one of the best concepts for a game. your making a game inside a game. def check this one out. and to the developers ty so much for making this gem. its a masterpiece.

The game's art, story, and voice acting are all great. You feel like a genius when you create the perfect minion to have at your side(in my case a hive-mind of multiplying space parasite), but the game doesn't actually have a lot of enemy encounters. This isn't to say there's no variety of creatures, but there are very few times you actually need them to fight more than the single odd enemy. Most of your time will be spent exploring the world, and if you enjoy exploring that isn't a bad thing. The audio logs spread accross the game are interesting and truly worth picking up, it's one of those odd occasions where you actually want the collectables for more than just an achievement. The game's primary problem is length, at the end I didn't want the game to end. I felt like I didn't solve enough puzzles nor triumph over enough enemies. The ending feels too soon, but maybe that isn't the worst thing as the game doesn't over stay it's welcome for a moment. In the end it's a 6/10.

interesting and unique gameplay, thought provoking story, fun if cheesey dialogue, overall a fun experience despite slow and repetitive menus.
