Tools Up!

This is a pretty fun game if you enjoy party-style games that are hectic along the vein of Overcooked! My only complaint with the game is that it can be soooooo easy to run into an issue with a single object (typically a paint can) being occluded by a wall. This can be problematic as each stage includes a clean up phase where all extra items must be removed from the house. So, do keep in mind that you can rotate the view, which may be necessary at times!

FWIW most freebies can be added to your account without the need to install them right away. I've only seen a couple of giveaway on steam and indiegala that had to be installed just to get the freebie. Even indiegala freebies can be added to your account without installing nowadays. I don't post indiegala giveaways though but I'll post up the link if you all want to check occasionally.

I have the launcher installed but haven't installed any of their games. I just did a quick count and I own 242 of their games. I did pay for Far Cry 4 and 5 Gold editions which cost $13 on sale.

if you really love hack n slash, titan quest is excellent. it has a lot of fun game mechanics that others do not have.
BUT, if you hate hack n slash, titan quest will not sway you.

I purchased Titan Quest many years ago.

I enjoyed it immensely at the time, I had a diablo2 inch to scratch. Torchlight 2 is also a fantastic itch scratcher there to.

Bit excited about Wolcen, but no time to play it right now.

I have Torchlight 2. Its fun, its well made, but I got bored after a couple hours.

We need something new in the hack n slash genre. Maybe Zelda-like exploration and puzzle solving.
