Different but fun anyway

Husband loves Minecraft on PC, so I thought I would get it for him on X-Box as well. It is a little different. The world is significantly smaller. There are limits -- you can only go so far in one direction. It is well behind on updates. But my husband enjoys it when he is tired of his PC or when he stupidly took it apart and then it broke. Anyway, I digress.  The controls are convenient and it is nice to have on such a large screen (tv).

Very different plot.  Slightly other worldly in some respects.  Enjoyed it but some parts were a little weird, but someone with a slightly offbeat slant  will find it entertaining.

This is a fun game but it is a little different getting used to the Wii version. Also, there aren't as many weapons but you are able to customize levels and is pretty fun. It isn't as great as some of the classic Worms games that I have played before but still interesting.

Enjoyed.  Nice change of story, not the same old thing.  Made me laugh

Fire and Ice had colorful characters with original quirks (like people who consider playing the classical music on the violin so sexy that they use it as foreplay), a shrewd politician who spins a blackmail scheme to personal advantage in an incredibly clever way, and a cute immigrant housekeeper turned stripper/prostitute who doesn't go the way you'd think and defies stereotypes as she works hard to make a better life for her Mother.

Overall, this books provided a different spin on the usual murder mystery, and even had some laugh out loud moments that made the journey fun and worthwhile!

Fun and adicting, as expected.  But don't be shocked, it is just more of the same. And that's a good thing.

It was definitely different and unique to me.  I enjoyed it quite a bit.

A fun ride for sure.  Not really my genre, but I really enjoyed this -- -- -- -- -- --

Surprisingly, I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would! Nice change of pace.

I'm not a big fan of fantasy (although I end up reading a lot of it for some reason), but this was quite good. I would recommend it to friends. It was fun and a little weird.

I bought a few different "iterations" of this title. This is enjoyable in different ways... Philosophical / abstract reasoning / dialectic / a kind of time travel ... etc...

Fun, quirky, and different in the best way. For a little romance off the beaten path, try this one.

Lately I have been fond of books that are shorter, so it took some time to read The Long Night. It's a tough one to rate because it's a little different than I'm used to. If you're looking for something that's cute or more regular fantasy, this might not be it. It is in fact a dark action packed book. For me, it worked. It was different and unique, what I really look for. For some, it might not be. In particular, the ending struck me as odd. Poetic yet a feel like more may be coming? I don't know for sure. Take a sample and try it yourself. I do like the writing though, it's fluid yet simple. An hour can pass easily reading this book.

I played a demo of this very breifly quite some time ago and it caught my interest, so when it popped up on sale I got it.

This isn't your mom's Alice in Wonderland lol....  Odd creatures, an almost bloodthursty but reluctant hero, and weird story makes this a very interesting game.

Only complaint is the movement/camera control can feel a little "wonky" at times.  But other than that a real fun game to play when I'm not gaming online.

Being a huge fan of Castlevania games, I naturally picked this one up.  This game was different in a way that really worked.  Trying something different is always a risk, you could stray too far from what worked, and if you stick too closely then what is it you are doing?  In this case, the main character Shanoa uses a form of magic, and the system is similar to the GBA game "Aria of Sorrow" only stead of demon's souls you're absorbing glyphs.  The way it works is primarily the same though, you have attack glyphs, support glyphs, and embedded glyphs.  Attack glyphs are obvious, support can give you wings to glide, and embedded can transform Shanoa.  Fundamentally, that was how the Red/Blue/Yellow souls in Aria worked, but it is different enough here to warrant the play style.  Shanoa only attacks by these magical glyphs, and they consume different levels of stamina that regenerates.  I REALLY liked that this game had a map, and you explored the land, and even had a village where you could rescue villagers who would interact with you.  I felt that was a great change up, and that it added to the value of the game.  It's an extremely fun and quite an interesting DS game, and even if it's a bit "old" now, doesn't mean it's not worthy of being owned.

I love this sort of thing anyway, but this was not quite what I expected. VERY bizarre--in a GOOD way. Will watch again and again.
