Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Freak Show]

I was disappointed to find out this was a point and click adventure game. Those were never my things. It's weird how easy one of the medals is. All I had to do was just click on the rubber ducky over and over. I thought it would take more than that. You first go over and pop the red balloon to get the key.

Use the key to (duh) open the door. I got confused after this. I like all the little details. For fans of these kinds of games, I would recommend this. The colors are nice too.

[COKEHEAD]

This should have a higher rating. It's really funny! I even like how the artwork holds up after all this time. At first, I couldn't understand what the gun was for. I now realize you were supposed to shoot the hallucinations. I think I won by accident.

I was trying to lose by shooting the guy. Er, I mean shooting George W. Bush. At that point, I had already won. I just love the music. Great early game!

[Scary Escape: Asylum]

I find this to be a good game. My only problem is that it is pretty difficult. I got used to solving the puzzle after awhile. The music is nicely appropriate. The artwork is great! I especially like that one disembodied arm.

I don't know if you ever use that. You have to work really hard in this. You just never know what will show up next. The ghoul seems pretty harmless. I just like the haunted house setting.

Thanks!

[The Schwarzenegger Dance]

I couldn't understand the appeal in this. It was just Arnold being shot easily. It didn't add up to much. At least it was easy. You need to be more creative. You have of course made much better things.

Then again, with how easy it was, it was not entertaining. It was too short. I wish I could have heard his voice. Hey, you spelled his name right! I keep getting it wrong myself.

[Skeet Challenge]

You certainly got the challenging part down well. I admit this game could be annoying. I still appreciated it. I have never played this game in real life. I've never even fired a gun. This does seem to be a pretty authentic representation of it.

I like how realistic it is. I just think it's a bit too redundant. It is just the same thing over and over again. It still doesn't need to be much more than what it is. I am satisfied when I get ahead.

[SSSG: Haunted Castle]

These pictures are always impressive. I'm getting to the point where I can easily get the first medal. You simply go backwards and click on the bench. The silver key falls out and it's obvious what you do with it. I really was impressed by the music in this one. I'm glad it was automatic.

The fine details are really nice. These games just aren't really for me. I like how bright everything is. It just seems like people make games with darker atmosphere. I mean, this is haunted after all.

selfdefiant responds:

Thanks. It is haunted but not in the sense of scary. Sometimes haunted can be nice. :)

[Combat Instinct]

Wow, I think this was the first truly great game on this website! I especially appreciate how it's just non stop action. Yeah, the graphics don't hold up well, but it's still great! You get a clear understanding of what you need to hit. I admit it's hard sometimes. I can't tell which part of the ship you shoot.

I thought I was staying in the same place the whole time. Instead, it was obvious I was moving around. That only makes it better! The sounds are pretty good too. I love early great stuff.

[Toon Escape: Graveyard]

Yeah, I managed to figure some of it out! It's pretty obvious you have to look at the graveyard. The combination for the chest is 74593. I thought there was some kind of error because there weren't four stratches when one was crossed out. The music wasn't bad. I still don't see why it's not automatic.

The designs were pretty fine. I have learned to just look at everything. Obviously, some parts are easier than others. There's just a lot of these you've made to experiment with. I liked it overall, as most of your games.

[Click Farm]

This is probably one of my favorite games of yours. Granted, that's mostly because it's easy to get medals. I am still impressed at how this was a unique game from you. I guess it was still technically a game where you did nothing but click. It didn't have pointing in it, I suppose. Dude, do you even sleep?

It seems like you submit a game with medals every single day. I realized that I had to click on the gold coins to get money. I thought you could just put your mouse over them at first. Clicking is fun when it's easy! I knew something was off as this had a lot more medals than usual.

[Zombie Killer 2072 AD]

I like how this reminds me of the "House Of The Dead" games. That was of course intentional. I like how the enemies all look different. Why does everyone hate this? Really, it's no worse than a lot of other games at this time. Well, it is pretty hard.

I'm just glad to see more variety. Even the title is nice. I admit that it is pretty difficult. It's still more creative than a lot of other games like this. It's genuinely enjoyable to play.
