Crookz – The Big Heist
 – 

One of the best game I've ever played

Crookz is a mix of squad-tactical, stealth puzzle and semi-real strategy game. Plus there is a plot: the story revolves around a group of professional highly skilled thieves seeking revenge against a former member team who betrayed them some years before. And to reach that goal, you'll deal with 18 missions, each on a big, complex map, in an execellent level progression and difficulty curve. The game has a good replayability. Note: I've played the game on Ubuntu, and on that OS the game has proved to be stable and robust; never had a single crash, and this is very rare for games not targeted towards Windows machines!

Train Fever
 – 

Is there even a game in it??

The title say everithing. From Wkipedia: "Key components of games are goals, rules, challenge, and interaction.". That's the point, where is challenge in this? It seems developers forgot to put it in their game. They just "copied and pasted" the old, stunning "Transport Tycoon", but to make money quickly to finance their true objective (the newly published Transport Fever game ) they only implemented some basic elements: you can only buy some trains or buses, put them on roads/railroads and watch them run forever, making money very easily even at the highest difficulty level. That's all! I should have saved my money for Transport Fever, probably...

ICY
 – 

A little gem

A mix of visual novel and post-apocalyptical RPG, whith an engaging storyline, interesting characters (each one with its own unique backstory), and a eerie soundtrack, mixed with a tense atmosphere.
The Inventory screen sometimes becomes glitchy, with items overlapping one another, but the game is still playable.

Cognition Game of the Year Edition
 – 

A thrilling thriller

A point 'n' click adventure with a solid storyline and a very atmospheric game to be immersed in. The story, telling the struggles of the FBI agent Erica Reed chasing not one but four different murderers along the streets of Boston, is structured as four self-contained episodes. You'll love this game because its:
- beautiful story
- great acting voices
- catching soundtrack
- different kind of puzzles to solve
Graphic isn't up to date maybe, and characters move a bit weirdly, but the overall job is very good. Give it a try!

Deponia
 – 

Fun, fun and more fun

This is the story of Rufus, a self-centered guy who, more than anything, hates Deponia and wishes to go to Elisium. Will he succeed? To know it you'll need to wait and buy the next 2 episodes.

Pros:
- Great story, full of good quality humor
- Great voice acting
- Amazing 2D graphic
- Good length of the game.
- Characters are really cool and fun, although sometimes you'll hate Rufus (he's really a jerk!)
- Pleasant interface, easy to navigate

Cons:
- well, sometimes you'll end up looking for a good walkthrough on the net to solve some of the puzzles...
Every single buck spent on this game is worth it. Definitely.
