Sure, it's an idle clicker, but the most you're going to be doing is waiting for a "Legendary drop" to finish your achievements. I've been idling at this point for 620 hours (as of this review) for it. Mostly forgetting about it as I work. Of course, I'd like to exit the game one day and just let my laptop stay closed for a while. Unfortunately, the drops happen once every two hours while the game is running.

With a real coconut, you can at least have a nice snack or make some meals out of it. A real coconut is literally worth more than this pathetic excuse for a "game".

1/10 At least it boots up and runs. If you're in for achievements, prepare for disappointment and disrespect for your time.

Our tale is much like a Pineapple on pizza. You are a god that has visited an island only to find weird islanders that snuck up on you. In shock, you run away from them. You see the rest of the islanders are celebrating...is it to honor your arrival or is it to mock your existence as they revel in their dance and merriment?

They have grown crops. Twas not to your liking.
They invited you to limbo. Twas not to your liking.
An old man fed some birds. Twas not to your liking.
They danced in circles. Twas not to your liking.
The kids played by jumping in chairs. Twas not to your liking.
One man thought he could dance better than the others. Twas not to your liking.
A woman cradled a baby in her hands. Twas not to your liking.
An old couple sat on a bench. Twas not to your liking.
They made escape rafts as if in reserve should their life not be to your liking. Twas not to your liking.
They even carved a stone to look like your likeness. Twas not to your liking.

All that you have seen was you were there for your ritual bathing and to cast judgment on these fools. Their time has come. This is the final day they shall live.

Jokes aside, it's an okay game that seems like a school project. No clear direction where to go, but you'll figure it out.

5/10 To put Pineapple on pizza depends on if you like it or not. For me, it's not fantastic, but not awful either.

Not to be confused with the nearly equal DOG, Dog is yet another boring and useless clicker. Click the dog once, you get your achievement. You're done. That's all there is.

0/10 Stupid Dog!

Open it up, click a million times, close the game. Just run Autoclicker until it's done and then you'll never think about this game again.

0/10 Good thing I can't eat Shrimp!

You open the game, click the dog 1 million times, close the game. You can at least customize your dog and the dog has a few nice animations, but that's about it. After running autoclicker, you'll probably never boot this up again.

0/10 Just another "clicker".

Just a carton of milk on the screen. You click it for 2 achievements, one for clicking once and one for clicking a million times. Run autoclicker. There is no way to save your points, you must have it done in a single session.

0/10 Worthless excuse of a "game".

Well...starters, I haven't written a review in 3 years...my god things have flown by...good and bad, but a story for another day. And what a way to break such a hiatus (temporary?) with....."this".....

OnlyCans: Thirst Date is a minigame you would expect out of Warioware titles where you must match your click with the icon on the screen. Of course, you have to match left and right clicks to get your score up...in that way, it's actually similar to OLDTV (a far more brutal game). Addressing the elephant in the room, this is a joke game with a ton of sexual innuendo and surprisingly interesting lore as you progress from can to can (should you choose to read, that is. Otherwise, it's just "Ha ha. Funny sexy game with cans". I will say that the voice actors are a mix of great to awful, so make of that what you will.

My biggest gripes are that a single misclick can be very punishing to your score (lowering your speed and your overall score). Few cans start with a decent time of 60 seconds (beginning and ending cans do this), but most other cans must be "satisfied" in 30 seconds...this feels longer when you're aiming for the S ranks. My other gripe is that you know you're not going to get your S rank and have to wait for the "episode" to end until you can restart the can. You're going to be waiting to restart quite a bit if you're going for completion.

My other gripe is the performance. You may need to lower your game specs to get the results you need. I ran it on the lowest performance in windowed mode. When doing this, I've found that after the confirmation on the resolution, it asks if I want to erase my data, which I have been a victim of once. This is a bug that should be addressed should a patch be made.

Overall, the question of "do I recommend OnlyCans: Thirst Date is something I've had to take a moment to think about. I would ultimately say "yes" because it's free. However, I have found myself experiencing carpal tunnel syndrome when playing this game various times and am currently resting my right hand. It's been a while since I've done something like this, and must be rustier than some of these cans.

7/10 Can I review this title? I guess I can...

The Walking Dead: Season Two takes place after the events of Lee Everett's tale, the man who we grew to love...the man who we grew to be...the man...who is no longer among us. This serves as the epilogue of the original The Walking Dead (the TelltaleGames one) showing what happened to the remaining survivors of the group you were a part of as you now take control of Clementine, who was once an innocent young girl, now thrust into a zombie apocalypse. At first, she got an introduction to a zombie apocalypse, now she has to learn how to be alone and how to survive...while still getting into new groups, but we all know what's going to happen.

The narrative this time is still good, but it has moments that I found lacking, much like those forced ending choices at the finale, which seem to come out of absolutely nowhere. Of course, there's also another "Ben" in the group, who you'll both like...yet grow to absolutely hate due to her sheer stupidity. But I guess every group needs a "Ben" to screw everything over. That said, the beginning is incredibly strong. I only feel the story starts to fall apart in the final episode, where everything feels like it was rushed out the door. It's good to see, though that Clementine is no longer a little girl (she's a bit older), though she still has naive child moments. As the season goes on, you see her mentally mature and in various regards, she's more mentally mature than many adults out there. This is essentially the story of Clementine growing up mentally.

Graphics are still the same as you've come to expect in the first season and you see that Clementine has aged a bit. The voice work is still fantastic. And the setting is awesome to glance at, perfectly setting the mood of the moment.

Again, the only problem I had that I would change wouldn't be the omission of the "Ben" character (though making her less useless in moments of need would be a massive plus), but it would be to fix how forced those ending choices were. There is no third choice to prevent the situation, but TTG has chosen to have dialogue before it where you try to prevent it. When it comes down to it, though, it forces you to pick sides when both have their uses and purposes.

Would I recommend The Walking Dead: Season Two? Of course. Though it's probably best if you wait for a sale where it's 50% off if you want to feel like you're getting the most out of your buck. The story starts off strong, but I was left with only a sour taste in my mouth when it ended rather than a feeling of accomplishment. Season 1 also left that feeling, but instead of providing a situation that could be avoided, it provided an inevitable and unfixable situation where you had to determine how you would spend your last moments, knowing full well what's going to happen. If you'd like to continue the story you grew to love in Season 1, this is a good purchase. But don't expect the same quality of writing that made Season 1 so awesome.

8/10 A great continuation of the first season, but would be better with some different writing choices in some areas.

Never Alone: Foxtales is the DLC to Never Alone (Kisima Ingitchuna), which acts as a prequel to the main story. You play as a young girl and her friendly fox as they create a little mischief that goes horribly wrong and it's their responsibility to fix it before things get even worse.

Like the base game, Never Alone: Foxtales is a story of a people...the Inuit (or commonly referred to as the Eskimo). This is based on an Inuit story regarding two brothers who faced against a giant mouse. The story is simple without much to expect, where the puzzles take precedence. The players can play as Nana (the girl) who can row the canoe, use ice blocks, and fight using her opposable thumbs...or the fox who can swim faster and communicate with spirits to relocate (...meaning it drags spirits to where it wants them to be). This requires teamwork between both player units and can lead to some interesting puzzle solving.

While I didn't quite care for the story of the DLC, I did find the insights about the Inuit people more interesting. The graphics are also quite a sight to behold. A nice package for $4 (more ideal during a sale at $2 since $4 is unreasonable for only 1 hour of gameplay), though given the length, I think $1 would have been more ideal since this DLC is only 1 hour long from beginning to end.

So, would I recommend this DLC? Well, yes if you're looking to complete the base game completely and if you're willing to wait for a sale. The main asking price is unreasonable for what you're getting and a sale will mark it for 50% off. Simply put, wait for a sale before you grab this one.

7/10 DLC done right...now about that price...

So, would I recommend

Okay, maybe I exaggerate, but this game certainly made an impression on this player. Unforgettable You is a narrative about a man who loves a girl and explains just how much he has loved her in the time that he has known her. The story starts sweet, but is bittersweet in the end. However, the gameplay is unique in each chapter, providing a new quirk for each new section of the story.

The graphics are minimalistic, but fitting. The music is decent. But above everything, the voiceover and the story telling are top notch and are award worthy. The whole experience is meant to be enjoyed for half an hour and it does a great job of keeping the player entertained with its fusion of narrative and gameplay...an experience I haven't experienced since Broken Dreams.

Personally, I would recommend giving Unforgettable You a chance. It's short, free, and has an engaging story with some fun gameplay. While the experience is brief, it is very much to the point and doesn't bore you with the same-ol'-same-ol' since each section in this 20 level adventure has a new experience to try out.

8/10 Don't forget to try this one out!
