Huh? It seems that now there is a lot more review writing? ... Cool!

I like the idea of comic reviews, or reviews as a large images with lots of screenshots puzzled together.
I already wrote some reviews in none-comic-form.
Anyone who prefers a comic review over a text review for their game? I would try to draw one.

Review for You Need a Hero

Post by **TMC** » Fri May 05, 2017 7:55 am

Awesome, people are reviewing! I would like to make a serious attempt at reviewing for a change, but I'm going to take advantage of the long deadline to do it in a couple months, when I should have more time.

To answer your question about how to finish the game (it seems you missed the ending!): Whenever you finish a level you get "Christmas Spirit" points. If you did really badly, you might get zero points. To beat the game you have to fill up the "Christmas Cheer" meter on the level select screen before the 15 minutes are up. You don't actually need to do all the levels; you can just play the same one over and over (hopefully improving as you go), which is something that wasn't clear to me at first either.

Also, this review might be less than the three paragraphs asked for?

This doesn't quite hit the 3 paragraph requirement. Feel free to add more to it.

I've definitely accepted way goofier/thinner reviews over the years so I accepted this. But also the line between the review narrative and the game itself is so thin here that I'm not quite sure I got any specific sense of the game itself from this review.

Also, it's really awesome to see some fresh reviewers doing the heavy lifting for this year's contest.
