False Skies Review

This game was entered into the 2020 Heart of the OHR contest, where it won 2nd Place. False Skies is an extremely slick and eye-catching game that harkens back to the best of the best from the NES and Game Boy RPG library. The world is huge and immersive, bringing with it a blend of fantasy and sci...

Vikings of Midgard Review

This game was entered into the 2020 Heart of the OHR contest, where it tied for 3rd Place. There is not much I can say about Vikings of Midgard that hasn't already been said over its long history with the OHRRPGCE engine. What started as WELCOME.RPG, intended to draw in newcomers and show them the ...

Katja's Abyss Tactics Review

This game was entered into the 2020 Heart of the OHR contest, where it tied for 3rd Place. Katja's Abyss Tactics, which started its life as the aptly-named Minesweeper Tactics, is a straightforward concept that had me hooked from the start: what if Minesweeper was a turn-based tactics game? Throw i...

Walthros: Renewal Review

This game was entered into the 2020 Heart of the OHR contest, where it won 5th Place. Walthros: Renewal is the latest adaptation of the wibbly-wobbly-wacky world of The Wobbler. Or Surlaw. Or Walrus Man, whatever his favorite moniker is. It kicks things off with a rollercoaster of action and hinted...

Forget-me-Not Review

This game was entered into the 2020 Heart of the OHR contest, where it won 6th Place. Forget-me-Not is a beautiful game that looks like it came out of another engine entirely. Highly reminiscent of the more artsy Yume Nikki-likes out there - Ib in particular comes to mind - there's a lot of terrifi...

Tim-Tim 2 Review

This game was entered into the 2020 Heart of the OHR contest, where it won 7th Place. Tim-Tim 2 "The Almighty Gnome" is the latest, and arguably greatest, platformer to be made in the OHR-allegedly-RPG-CE. This little gnome fella's got some pretty sweet moves as he bounds from the tops of...

Tough Girl Gina Review

This game was entered into the 2020 Heart of the OHR contest, where it won 9th Place. Tough Girl Gina is something of a depressing experience. You're flat broke, goons are jumping out of the bushes trying to kill you, nobody wants to invite you over to their place, even your most basic needs like s...

Blood Ledger Review

This game was entered into the 2020 Heart of the OHR contest, where it won 10th Place. Blood Ledger is a refreshing foray into stealth-action territory, where you must think quickly to avoid detection and act quickly to solve puzzles. The world on display is strange and mysterious, and for the most...

Gay Savage and the Enigma Rip Review

This game was entered into the 2020 Heart of the OHR contest, where it won 11th Place. Gay Savage and the Enigma Rip is a head-tiltingly curious experience that dares you to immediately quit and walk away, but what's buried under the trash pile might surprise you. The visuals, music, and premise ar...

Christmas Stars Review

This game was entered into the 2020 Heart of the OHR contest, where it won 12th Place. Christmas Stars was an adorable dual-contest entry, once for the Heart of the OHR, twice for a Christmas jam or something elsewhere. The tale it tells is equal parts heartwarming and heartbreaking, told with the ...

TutOHRial Review

This game was entered into the 2020 Heart of the OHR contest, where it won 13th Place. TutOHRial is exactly what it says on the tin: a step-by-step instructions game where the player must tweak things on the fly in the editor to progress from one prefab room to the next. To put it another way, this...

Slimes World Review

This game was entered into the 2020 Heart of the OHR contest, where it won 14th Place. Slimes World is, put simply, incomplete. All of its features are front-loaded. Once you've completed the (admittedly very well-done and intriguing) character creation process, the game's practically over. It's ex...

Alliterative Abbreviated Adventure Review

This game was entered into the 2020 Heart of the OHR contest, where it won 15th Place. Alliterative Abbreviated Adventure, also known as "AAA" with a varying number of A's, can best be described as an odd experiment. It goes out of its way to mimic NES Dragon Warrior in terms of appearanc...
