In the last few months I did a lot of gaming. Not counting the Sims, of course - it's become a fandom of sort. I keep having these gaming periods, get bored, then resume again after some time. One day I just had a great urge to play an RPG and a 3D one at that. And that's how it started.

Gods: Lands Of Infinity (Slovakia)



Why did I have to stumble upon the most obscure 3D RPG out there? I mean Slovakia, really? I could barely find a walkthrough and game tips. But the biggest problem was apparently my video card (or the absence of thereof) that didn't allow me to play. I got so upset I actually decided enough is enough and used what little money I had to buy one. Anyway, I think the game's pretty good. The graphics are decent and the gameplay is engaging enough. All the walking around and trading stuff gets a bit boding pretty soon though. The alchemy is underdeveloped and there are many small discrepancies and things that could be improved, but overall it's not bad.

Keepsake (France)



This one is basically a puzzle quest. Although I only found the Russian version and the voice-overs sounded a bit stupid I really enjoyed it. Mostly because of wonderful graphics. In a way sometimes it got a bit annoying that the game area is so huge and you basically spend most of the time running from here to there, but the scenery is so beautiful I didn't mind that much. The puzzles were really hard, harder than I ever encountered. I felt pretty stupid most of the time and grateful for the in-game hint system that provided 3 hints and the solution. The plot is pretty lame but that doesn't concern me much. Overall a great experience.

Apart from those I did some small 'puzzle and object-search' games such as Tiny Bang Theory and Enlightenus II. I guess I did feel kind of bored lately. As for Generations, it will get a post of its own.
