SokolMusic's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Block Mystery Crew: Dracula's Castle]

A nice, fresh take on escape/point-and-click games.

Had to use the walkthrough though due to the pixel hunting I had to do.

[1066]

Holy cow! I didn't know Ian Holm (Bilbo Baggins of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy) voiced the narration for this! I wonder how the creator was able to arrange that.

Anyway, this was a fun strategy game; graphics were great, SFX fitted the gameplay very well, the strategy was in-depth enough to make you think, and music set the mood well.

[Reincarnation: ATOE]

This was a good one.

[Being One - Episode 5]

Probably the longest game of the "Being One" series. Great as usual.

[Being One - Episode 2]

The best game in the "Being One" series (in my opinion). Multiple jumpscares, suspenseful atmosphere, engaging story, puzzles aren't too difficult, and awesome visuals.

[Being One]

I swear, I play the Being One series around once a year.

I've really enjoyed Psi's work over the years ever since I played Icescape. I really like his artistic style, and while sometimes the music comes across as too synthy for me, it fits right in the game. Some of the games had a great story-line, and I really like the additional content that you would find (like notes, files, audio tapes) that would enhance the story as well.

Frankly, I was disappointed with some of his newer stuff when he switched to Unity. Those games (in my opinion) lost some of their charm and grit.

[Reincarnation: ADDO]

The beginning of a classic series:

I enjoyed playing these games when I was younger, and they still hold up today. I can totally see Netflix or Youtube making an animated TV series from this.

My only minor critiques are the shortness of the game and the couple of times I had to randomly click various areas to continue.

[-Stick War-]

I didn't know Denny Schneidermesser contributed to the game's soundtrack.

Anyway, I enjoyed the game; battles were fun, there was strategy involved, but there really wasn't a story to tell, and there were some bugs and glitches in the game (soldiers following you when you tell them to stay, some character phasing, "their" instead of "there," etc.)

Besides Denny's contribution to the soundtrack, I was impressed with the quality of the music in the game; it certainly contributed to the overall atmosphere.

[Midnight Cinema]

That's quite the effort to get a movie ticket. Was there a need for so many corny jokes though?

[Warfare 1944]

I enjoyed this game more than its predecessor. Less glitches, better graphics, and more strategy involved.
