Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Christmas Cookie Quest]

Well, it's hard to say anything that bad about this game. It was a pretty typical game where you got sweets. Then again, I haven't played the whole thing. Maybe goblins appear later. The artwork is pretty good. I am just not into the whole point and click adventure game things.

At least it's something Christmas related. It's always nice to celebrate the holidays! I think the details were pretty good in this. It seemed quite realistic. Of course, that doesn't make it that good.

[Fruity Bat]

I thought this game was just mediocre. There wasn't anything that good or bad about it. I guess I'll give it credit for being different. You rarely see games about fruit bats. Of course, there are too many animals to all have games about them. I couldn't quite always understand how I died.

I don't know if eagles eat bats in real life. I'm no biologist. It was a bit too simple, but it was fine on its own. I don't know how the time the second time. I thought I got a powerup that made me go faster.

[Clock Legends]

Well, I really don't know what to say about this. I really do like the artwork in this. It has all the goodness of a flash game. I have no choice but to recommend this because it's so popular. I simply suck at this game. I can not get past the part with the bullet spraying clock.

With SteakClock, I could just jump over him. I like seeing the Peggey's or Swinubs or whatever they are called here. I wish StrawberryClock had more power. He should be able to shoot stuff from his cane or something. Congradulations on making this so popular.

[Dirk Dagger]

I actually did manage to play this elsewhere. From what I got, it wasn't that bad of a game. It's for the most part, a pretty typical noir flash game. I thought the animation was quite good. I wasn't expecting there to be point and click parts. Well, I guess that is the whole game.

This game's name is really nice, although I doubt it's original. It was weird to have a guy in cement shoes in the room. Dang, that came out wrong. Well, I still wouldn't recommend it. It links to a dead website too.

[Hire A Private Eye]

I guess I thought this was okay, like most people. There really weren't much for instructions. Were you supposed to touch something to take pictures? It didn't seem very rewarding for me. I certainly wasn't that good at it. I guess it is kind of an original idea.

The music was alright. The animation was fairly mediocre too. I guess there was just nothing noteworthy about this. I like games with more clear instructions. It wasn't terrible, though.

[Subterfuge]

I ended up enjoying this game! I really have no idea how similar it is to checkers or chess. I got the first level beaten. That's probably the closest I've ever gotten in one of these games. I'm not interested in playing the rest, lol. It was really nice to see how it was unique. Actually, that's another game, but that's another story...

I think the sounds are nice. You have great mobility. You should have that in a game like this. I wish I knew what the title meant. It's something in German, I think.

[Unique]

I was impressed at how good this game was. It was really interesting to see what design would come up next. I guess there wasn't any way you could lose at this game. I got a score of 94,000. I liked how it actually got harder the more it went on. I was eager to find out how it would do that!

The music was quite good too. That highscore thing is a dead link. I like how it kept making that certain sound over and over. It's a nice laid back game. When it moved, it seemed to either make it or break it for me.

[The Strangers 2]

I can see why you went to stick games. This wasn't that good. Of course, it's still better than other shooting games I've played. The premise is pretty unique. I don't even know if the enemies can kill you. It's more about you not shooting civilians.

The CGI is pretty good. Seems like more people are using that nowadays. Well, I guess it's not fully CGI. It doesn't seem like traditional animation, at least. While not that innovative, it's in no way bad.

[LOTRO - Swig & Toss]

At first, I was confused by the title. I then realized it was an obvious reference to LOTR! The O at the end just really threw me off. It's too bad you couldn't go sober. On my first try, I didn't understand it. I actually do like the graphics in this.

You rarely see CGI around here. While not great, it works pretty well. I guess a drunk game is pretty funny. It's weird how you can just not hit anything. Rather, you can but it bounces off.

[The Spill Canvas Pinball]

It seems like most people thought this was okay, and I agree with them. It seemed to be too slowly paced. I'm used to pinball games being faster. It even seemed a bit too easy like that. I still thought the style was pretty good. It was nice to see the design. Some things were pretty well hidden.

I think the music could have been better. It just didn't seem very appropriate for a pinball game. Real pinball games are more fast paced. I couldn't really find much of a theme. It was kind of different than any other games I've played recently.
