Jul 10 The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit Review (PC Game, 2018)

The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit is a free standalone game in the Life is Strange universe. You play as Chris, a young boy who wants to be a superhero. He lives with his father, a grieving alcoholic with rage issues. The pair are spending their first Christmas together without Chris' mother, who you discover has passed away. Chris is left to pick up the pieces and do everything he can to keep his father happy and become Captain Spirit.

The game plays out in a close approximation to real time. You have about 90 minutes of playtime to achieve as many goals as you can. Some are purely Chris having fun--build your superhero suit, piece together a map to buried treasure--while others are chores reimagined as superheroic events--resetting the water heater, cleaning up the house. Whatever you choose to do has a direct impact on how your adventure unfolds.

Dead by Daylight is a multiplayer survival horror game. You can either take on the role of a survivor or a killer. As a survivor, you work in a team of four players to repair five generators that restore power to the exit gates, allowing you to escape. As a killer, you hunt down the four survivors, knocking them to the ground and hanging them on meat hooks to sacrifice to the Entity. The match ends when all survivors have died or escaped.
