I'm assuming that's a home port of the existing arcade only release.

Both versions of solitaire were good, they were the only things I've 100%ed so far lol

(I did have 100% on the gunpla but then they added another model)

Japanese solitaire breaks my brain bad.

Dungeons and Diagrams is almost fantastic but it has a problem where by the end theres too few rules to solve puzzles without some guessing/knowing how generally the dungeon probably will look

Usually any pre-existing licensing contracts are honored until they run out, and then the new license holder decides whether to renew or not.

Frankly I've been pretty disappointed that Gamesworkshop has stuck with the movie aesthetic, it's so boring compared to what they put out for their other games

Here's their Lord of the Rings orcs

your mistake was reading the tweets. Anything to them that isnt a 9 is disaster.

Like 7 is still good. Hell even a 6. 5 is a maybe.

Reading over the review blurbs it seems like a lot of people generally like everything except the dungeons.

Assuming the reviews are accurate, I think I can put up with some bad dungeons if the battle system is good enough so I still might get it.

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
Do SMT games usually review well? They are niche titles and appeal more to players primed for them. A 7/10 doesn’t sound unreasonable, I just hope Altus isn’t linking bonuses to Metacritic scores

all that matters is if you the player enjoyed the game not some arbitrary review score by a games journalist who is bad at playing videogames
