This is a very cute indie game where you play as a little mouse Tilo who is a bard. The story starts with him in a jail cell on a prison island. The story explores why Tilo is there and ways for him to escape the island to find his wife who was separated from him. The game is all stealth which is interesting making you plan out strategies on how not to be seen by enemies. Sometimes the quests are a little tedious with the constant backtracking and lack of information, but the story is well written and the game is so charming I didn't mind so much.

I was going to start this by saying this was the earliest set of the Biggles stories, back in The First World War.

Then I did a bit of research, and discovered that it depends upon how (and what) you are counting as a Biggles story/book - see http://www.biggles.info/

Perhaps, then, it would be better to say that this is the earliest set of any I have read.

Published in 1935, this is (apparently) a collection of 12 separate short stories, all of which are loosely linked together and follows some of Biggles earlier exploits.

I realise I'm not the target audience for these (I'm now too old). I don't care: sometimes it's nice just to re-live your childhood!

A couple of songs only for me (0 more)

Feels like trying too many different themes on 1 album not always a bad thing but didnt work for me. (0 more)

After winning this from Smashbomb and requested I review it so here goes.

I would not have purchased this album even though I do like some of Madonnas other works but they are mostly the 80s hits and some from the Frozen album.
I found 2 or 3 tracks ok to listen to with nice use of beats and piano in the songs. But over all I felt she was trying to cater to too many genres which sometimes works but for me on this occasion it didnt. A generous 5 out of 10 from me.

Fear aspect. Good use of sound and allowing the imagination to fill in the gaps. Good balance between drama and action. (0 more)

Difficult to hear at times :this rarely happened. (0 more)

I found this podcast years ago and it didn't have all the episodes then. But now I just finished it and it was amazing! There was a good amount of drama to action. The story keeps you guessing about what's going to happen next. The story does a good job at making you hate and love characters. Also the voice actors are amazing!
Only struggle I had was near the end conversations felt rushed sometimes and at other times it was hard to hear what other people were saying. Overall an amazing podcast for the zombie/apocalypse enthusiast.
