Especially during the pandemic, Jackbox Games are a must have for bonding & socially distanced fun with friends. This pack has several fun favorites though I highly recommend getting all the Jackbox packs!

Personally, I really enjoy Grass Simulator. Honestly, I don't know what most of the reviewers were expecting- it's a GRASS SIMULATION GAME. Even so, it actually goes above and beyond just being a grass simulator. Of course there is the grass simulation mode, which is genuinely relaxing with beautiful music and soft, relaxing sound effects. It's perfect for relaxing after a long, stressful day.

If you need more excitement, there are several other modes which have everything from dancing disco cows to the ability to shoot things to a snowy exploration level.

As a fan of simulation games, I genuinely recommend this game. The devs keep adding new things and it definitely gives you a genuine grass simulation experience.

If you like cats and if you like fishing, you will love Cat Goes Fishing.

This cute and easy-to-learn game is alarmingly addictive. I have to be at work for an early meeting tomorrow. I know I should have gone to bed hours ago. I just need to catch... one... more... fish!

The quests are great and help you advance in the game to get better rods, more rod improvements, and even boats! The fishing aspect requires some skill but rod improvements can make it easier.

Overall, a cute game that will devour your time like these fish devour your bait.

Pros-
-Lots of new content, new dynamics, etc. since the original Don't Starve game.
-Many different characters, all with their unique abilities, to choose from to play.
-Survival game at its best: challenge, lots of things that can kill you, and just enough resources to help you survive.
-You can haunt things when you're a ghost!
-Ability to make custom worlds allows you to tailor it to the survival skill level of you and your friends to make the game enjoyable without being overly frustrating.

Cons-
-The default world is very difficult, especially for beginners. Turn off Reign of Giants, make the days long, make winter short, and switch it from Survival to Endless.
-Only 6 players can play in your world at a time.
-No dedicated servers. If you're not online and hosting the world, your friends can't play.

Conclusion- If you like survival games & playing with your friends, you'll really enjoy Don't Starve Together.

The games and mini-games are cute and fun. However, I was expecting that once the games were finished it would unlock a "sandbox" mode where I could buy & customize furniture. While you can customize your character, I was hoping you could create and design your own wardrobe fashions and share them with friends- this is not the case. As a little girl I always wanted a real Barbie Dreamhouse and while it is a cute game in and of itself, if you are looking to recapture the "sandbox" Barbie experience that you had as a child but in digital form then this game will not live up to your expectations.

This is secretly Sneeza's favorite game. Ask him to play it with you sometime! =)

DO NOT BE FOOLED- this game is all about killing poor, sweet, innocent kitties. If you love cats, such as I do, you will never be able to make it past the tutorial.

This classic and legendary RPG is a must-have for every gamer. I played this when it first came out in the mid 90s- on both console and PC- and it has been one of my favorite games ever since. This game has spun off 3 additional games and one movie- all beautifully supporting the central plot. I cannot recommend this game enough!

This game is amazing and amazingly addictive. It is fantastic and yet also terrible because it is so very addictive. =D Seriously, though, I highly recommend it. Just put aside a few hours (days, weeks) to play it!

I absolutely LOVE this game. The music is soothing and beautiful. The artwork is divine and the game play is challenging without being super frustrating. It is fantastic and anyone who likes to relax with a good game of solitaire (though the game play is a bit different) will absolutely love Faerie Solitaire.
