My Recommendation for SOMA
Add Video or Image
A horror game for Sci-Fi enthusiasts
SOMA is set in the future, so it has all that futuristic goodness. Things like robots, AIs, underwater laboratories, diving suits designed to endure immense water pressure, and much more. SOMA is a thoroughly enjoyable Sci-fi experience. See More
Very linear level design
While other horror titles have branching paths and open areas you get to explore, SOMA is very linear even in its ocean exploration sections. This feels like a failed opportunity to create an even better game. See More
Steam Rating:Overwhelmingly Positive
Thought-provoking story
Like many horror stories, it delves deep into uncovering the central mystery of what's going on. There are many unsettling events and revelations along the way, bringing up philosophical questions about consciousness and identity. It's the type of story that sticks with you long after you've finished it and is worth experiencing at least once. See More
Not for mainstream horror enthusiasts
SOMA focuses heavily on psychological horror by maintaining suspense and creating a very creepy atmosphere. If you're looking for jump scares, gore, and other thrill-inducing horror aspects you might be sorely disappointed. See More
Great atmosphere
SOMA's atmosphere is a combination of various things. It can be the feeling of loneliness when you're exploring a rundown and desolate lab. The feeling of anxiety as you trek along the seafloor and you're only surrounded by muffled sounds and the bubbling of the water. The feeling of fear as you dive deeper into the ocean and the sun becomes more distant. It's an extremely immersive atmosphere, which is something that many modern horror games don't have. See More

My Recommendation for The Walking Dead: Season 1
A lot of replayability
Resembling an interactive novel, the game plays out as a series of dialogue choices or decisions that result in specific actions. It's pretty interesting to replay the game many times and choose all the different ways of handling situations just to see how they play out. See More
Superficial player impact
While the game may on the face of it appear to have far reaching consequences for the decisions taken by the player. At times it can appear that these consequences cause mainly only superficial differences as the story progresses. See More
Steam Rating:Very Positive
Genre:Narrative, Adventure, Survival Horror
Stellar voice acting brings the characters to life
Voice actors deliver their lines with a lot of emotion, never feeling forced or fake. This excellent acting really helps draw you into the story and its characters. There's a lot of great chemistry between the various voice actors as well, resulting in conversations that flow well and sound very natural. See More
Some annoying quicktime events
Some of the quicktime events can feel like they drag on a bit too long and require too many button/key presses, especially during extended action sequences. See More
Standalone story makes it accessible for all
Even if you don't read the comic or watch the TV show, you can still play and enjoy this game. It's a completely standalone story. While there are some mild easter eggs for fans of the show/comic, you can still understand the game just fine without any prior knowledge of The Walking Dead. See More
Difficult decisions
The Walking Dead requires that the player make decisions throughout, these typically will be in the form of action or conversation options. In many of these situations there is no obviously correct or best choice yet these decisions must be taken in stressful situations often giving a matter of seconds. They can be morally testing as you can attempt to do what is 'right', what is best for the group or what is best for yourself as well having differing repercussions on how your character is perceived by different people. See More
Engrossing storyline
The Walking Dead tells a genuinely gripping story which can be a testing and exhausting experience for the player. It is told through the interactions between people fighting to survive in a new world in which resources are scarce and threats can come from both the living and the undead. Perhaps the major strength of the game in creating a compelling story telling experience is that it causes the player to care about the characters involved. This is an all too uncommon experience in gaming, and in The Walking Dead adds much greater meaning to the decisions which must be made along the way. See More
My Recommendation for Alien: Isolation
Creates a lot of tension
Intelligent A.I. is capable of keeping the game unpredictable. As soon as the Alien starts stalking the player, the game can easily become tense with player never knowing what the Alien will do since the majority of interactions with it are completely unscripted. Especially in VR, you get the feeling like you are actually being hunted. See More
Frustratingly difficult at times
Some segments of the game can be frustratingly difficult or even unfair at higher difficulty settings. See More
Genre:FPS
Co-Op:None
Controller Support:Full
Excellent, nostalgic design
Environmental design very closely resembles Ridley Scott's Alien. It has the same retro design of the computers as well as a chilling soundtrack. It still works well in the modern age too - the 3D is on point, and the designers have gone into detail. If you dare to spend time exploring, it's a very cool experience wandering around a spaceship and looking out into space. See More
Unrealistic teleporting alien
The alien will somehow always be somewhat near you no matter how stealthy you are. This does maintain the game's difficulty, but it can seem unfair putting all this work into not getting heard only to have the alien pop out of the nearest vent. See More
Excellent atmospheric sound
With minimal music, this game generates much of it's atmosphere from the miscellaneous background noises. The audio generally in the forefront is the titular Alien, which loudly thumps along the ground and through vents. This game also uses directional audio as a tool both for and against the player. It uses it to scare the player, but it simultaneously gives the player more information to survive with. See More
The game progresses slowly, and you can lose interest
The game is too long and quickly loses its charm and tense feelings as the game drags. Too many hours of even the best game can become a chore more than an enjoyable experience. Whats worse is that a bunch of the length is incessant back tracking, which frankly is just a lazy way to prolong a game. See More
Useful tools throughout
The game provides you with many tools and weapons to assist you along the way. Some items you may only find a use for once or twice, but you'll be glad to have them. See More
Beautiful graphics
Aesthetically, this game nails the look and feel of the original film. Both well optimized and incredibly beautiful, this game is a graphical marvel. See More
My Recommendation for Resident Evil HD Remaster
Immersive exploration
The entire game is set in a massive mansion and its surrounding area. It's very quiet, spacious, and has many locked doors that will pique your interest. You'll gradually unlock more of the mansion, slowly uncovering its mysteries. This includes hidden passages, secret laboratories, and rotting cellars, hiding many dark secrets. You're never quite sure what to expect next, but that's what it keeps it fresh and exciting throughout the entire game. See More
Combat feels awkward at times
In various areas you won't be able to see the enemies on-screen because of the fixed camera angles. This might make combat somewhat unpleasant since you won't be sure if you're hitting the enemy or how far they are. The auto-aim function helps with that by pointing your character towards them, but you won't stay locked on, so you'll have to constantly readjust your aim. See More
Fixed camera angles create a cinematic experience
Resident Evil HD skillfuly balances visibility and tension with fixed camera angles. It can be the view from behind a fence as your character passes it by, giving you a sense of looming danger. It can be an upwards angle on a giant statue, making it seem more imposing. Or it can be the zoomed out view of a great hall to make the scale all the more impressive. Many details like this make Resident Evil HD more visually pleasing and atmospheric than most modern games. See More
The puzzles feel just right
The developers have done a great job of balancing difficulty of the puzzles. You'll still have to look for clues, reading through documents and examining objects, but it won't ever feel daunting. It won't feel too easy either, giving you a sense of accomplishment when you open that secret passage or locked door. See More
My Recommendation for Prey (2017)
Options to stealth or shoot
Although the effectiveness of the stealth option leaves a lot to be desired, Prey at least gives the player the opportunity to either focus on straightforward combat or sneaking around enemies instead. Much like in the Deus Ex games, not being locked to either playstyle opens up a lot of freedom for exploration and taking on foes. See More
Overuse of jump scares
The blob-like, ink-black mimics that appear throughout the space station often sneak up on the player by way of jump scares that gradually overstay their welcome, becoming more of an annoyance than anything, especially for players who dislike horror mechanics. The first few instances of this happening can be a complete turn-off, discouraging those who might have enjoyed the game without this particular design decision. See More
Genre:First-Person Shooter, Immersive Sim
Strong opening
The introduction to Prey's story and setting is intriguing, messing with the player's head and forcing them to question if what they had just experienced was real. There's an unsettling air of sterility and complacency where certain factors of the game expect the player, as the protagonist Morgan, to obliviously go along with the proceedings as if nothing is wrong. These events are ultimately more interesting than the rest of the story, but Prey nonetheless has an unforgettable hook that will keep players invested from the get-go. See More
Weak stealth options
Because the player isn't forced to choose a dedicated playstyle from the onset, stealth or shooting, it's clear that having both forced the stealth option to suffer, with the primary mechanic being tiptoeing around enemies and hoping that they don't notice. With the dozens of options to mod Morgan's gun and inspire different uses for his or her weapon, the stealth painfully lacks in comparison. See More
Morality system is well-implemented
Prey has a strong focus on the protagonist Morgan's actions to determine his or her morality, The choices in the game deal with choosing to kill a group of mind-controlled enemies or finding a way to save them. spending limited resources to go out of your way to fight enemies who pose a threat to the space station, or even saving groups of people who don't like you and won't appreciate your sacrifice. It's up to you to weigh the pros and cons and do what best reflects your own morals. These types of choices come up throughout the game, and they feel well-executed and implemented in ways that serve as an example for other morality-based titles to follow. See More
Inconsistent graphics
Prey's environments and lighting effects are beautiful, with polished surfaces and fizzling bits of electricity coming from broken wires, but the human models in the game are decidedly average in comparison, their skin looking somewhat bloated or blotched at times that don't seem intentional. Thankfully, the humans in the game aren't as much of a focus as the environments are. See More
Throughout each level, there are several items to pick up in Prey, in order to save them to recycle into more useful items. There are also computers for the player to browse and read descriptive emails and data logs with new information, or electrical flames acting as obstacles that the player can extinguish with special tools. Environments are dense, telling a story all their own that adds to the intrigue of the main plot. As Morgan levels up, he or she can also unlock new ways to explore earlier locations, such as a feature to glide across locations to reach inaccessible areas, opening up new possibilities to discover. See More
My Recommendation for Little Nightmares
Expansion packs available but not necessary to get the full experience
Little Nightmares can be finished in a few hours, and you will get the full game experience if you buy just the basic game. But if you want more of this game, you have the option of getting extra levels by buying DLCs. The latest expansion was released in November 2017, so this game is still growing. See More
Lots of unavoidable deaths
The dynamic camera angle can interfere with controls. Because the character can move not only forward/back, but also closer to and further away from the camera, it can be difficult to tell where exactly the character is in terms of space, which makes some jumps more difficult. See More
Genre:Adventure
Controller Support:Yes
Hauntingly beautiful environment design
The objects and environment look very realistic, which does a great deal to boost immersion. Each level has it's own distinct art style, so you get a sense of progression through the game. See More
Low replayability
There are a few moments in this game where the element of surprise plays a major role in creating an emotional rollercoaster, so playing it a second time will not be as fun. The levels are linear, so you won't get any open-world experiences from Little Nightmares. See More
Keeps you on edge
Little Nightmares does a great job at immersing the player in the game. This game uses a third-person perspective, where you see everything from a side camera. The protagonist is a little girl called Six, and everything about her surroundings portrays hostility. The oversized objects, gruesome monsters, and the near constant presence of death imagery all combines to keep you on the edge at all times. See More
Intriguing story with a lot of room for speculation
At first, the story seems almost disappointing- a child is trying to escape monsters. But as you progress further into the game, you find more clues that create more questions about what's really going on. The game boasts a capability to capture the player's imagination, and the seemingly vague yet thought provoking story is a great example of how that is achieved. It's very likely that after finishing Little Nightmares you won't be able to stop thinking about the story and all the questions it raises. See More
My Recommendation for The Evil Within 2
Excellent crafting system
As you explore the world you'll find various materials that can be used for crafting ammo and health items. You can either use a crafting table or craft items while you're out in the field at double the cost. This gives the crafting system a fair amount of flexibility and depth, allowing you to quickly craft something in case of an emergency, while also rewarding careful resource management and planning. See More
Might not be that scary for hardened horror fans
While there is a fair share of grotesque imagery and creepy moments, the scare factor isn't that high. You'll encounter the ocasional jump scare, but nothing ever gives you an impending sense of doom, which can be pretty disappointing for horror enthusiasts. See More
Interesting story
The Evil Within 2 at its core is a story about a father looking for his long-lost daughter in a nightmarish artificial world, generated within a computer system. Its inhabitants have succumbed to the negative influences of the world, turning them into monsters, which leaves you to take them out. It's a really good mix of great plot elements, drama, interesting characters with a slight touch of conspiracy. On top of that, the story has a fairly satisfying conclusion without trying to set up for a sequel. See More
Great feeling of suspense
As you explore the nightmarish world of The Evil Within 2, you'll almost never feel safe due to a variety of reasons. First, the disfigured nightmare monsters are very dangerous, so messing up usually equates to your death. Even when you get used to the controls and combat, you can mess up very easily. This uncertainty of success slowly creeps into your mind, being more effective than any jump scare. Second, resources are very scarce, so every shot counts. If you spend too many bullets in one section, you probably won't have enough for the next. If you miss a headshot, the monster will probably get to swing at you. As a result, you might constantly weigh your options, whether to attempt a direct confrontation or go for the riskier stealth kills in an attempt to conserve ammo and health. Third, the world is very open, removing some of the predictability found in linear survival horror games. You never know when or where the monsters will be, causing you to always look in every direction. This uncertainty can be really nerve wracking. The Evil Within 2 is a great example of survival horror done right. See More
My Recommendation for 7 Days to Die
Randomly generated open worlds makes for a ton of replayability, as each playthrough is never the same
Recently added in the Alpha 9 release, randomly generated worlds allow the player a new play experience every time they open up the game. This means every server will have a different dynamic based on their layout of the world. See More
Randomly generated open worlds has no generation options
Randomly gen has no option to customize how it is generated (like in minecraft for example) and could make it quite problematic if you want to have a good map, as there is no way to know how good or bad the map will be. Random gen also make unrealistic hills and road that almost go up/down vertically with vehicle spawning in such way they seems to be floating. See More
Genre:Survival / Open World
Co-Op:Yes
Controller Support:No
Unique combination of voxel and polygon models, which makes for pretty fun physics
The game is a mix between a voxel world and full polygon models for buildings, making for a versatile survival based world that brings exploration and creation to the zombie survival genre. Structural integrity is a real thing in 7 Days To Die. That means there cannot be unsupported floating blocks. The player can set up traps to take out hordes of zombies with a falling building. Weapons will break and crumble but can also be forged to be awesome, and food will spoil so the player must cook and maintain supplies. See More
People who dislike Minecraft will dislike this game
If you like Minecraft, you might like this game, a lot actually. But if you HATE Minecraft, you'll quickly realize this game is basically Minecraft with better graphics. It just downright sucks. See More
Single, co-op, and multiplayer gameplay modes gives plenty of choice as to how one would like to tackle the game
Three different play modes including solo, with friends, or competitively over the internet gives a lot of choice as to how someone would like to play the game. Be it with friends or solo, the options are there. See More
Crafting system is constantly getting dumbed down
Even though 7D2D is supposed to be a hard survival game (and most of the time it is), the crafting system is getting constantly dumbed down with new releases. For example, previously you had sticks, planks, and logs. Sticks could not be used to build huge wood log walls or frames. While now there's no more different kinds of wood and you simply punch a bush to get some wood. See More
Robust crafting system that allows the players imagination to run wild with possibilities
Create everything from a chainsaw to various guns to defenses for your fort - the crafting system lists what you can make with the materials you currently have in the player's inventory. See More
Constant sense of vulnerability, which keeps the player alert and on edge the whole time
As the player makes progress in the game by interacting with the environment, killing zombies or building things, they are rewarded with skill points that can be used to unlock new skills such as combat strength, higher stamina or new crafting options. But even though the skill system can seemingly make the game easier, the severity and size of the zombie hordes will keep increasing with the time spent in game and the progress made by the player, keeping them on the edge and making them feel a constant pressure that an attack may come at any time and that they should be prepared. See More
What you build is not only for creativity, but also for gameplay purposes
In 7DTD players don't build their homes only as bases or places to sleep in, or build cool looking things just for the fun of it and to test their skills. Every 7 days, a large horde of zombies will attack the player wherever he or she is, trying to destroy them and what stands in the way of the player and the horde. This is why the player needs to think about how to build traps that will help them kill a lot of zombies and how to make a strong enough house that will not be destroyed easily. See More
Thoughtful and communicative developers allows for a stable community that keeps growing
Even though this is not directly related with the gameplay, it's still important especially for indie and early-access games. The developers behind 7DTD have always been communicative and have heard what the community had to say time and time again, releasing patches with bug fixes and new features in a timely manner. See More
Creative mode gives the player a section to just trial things out in, for fun
The game allows players to make custom maps without zombies attacking to set up scenarios or make player made game types. See More
Great replayability
No matter how many times you start a new game (random gen) you will never get the same experience. The crafting is the same, enemies are the same, game mechanics are the same but the gameplay is not. If you add the mods available for this game then you will have a whole new experience with added/altered crafting, different enemies, more quests etc... See More
Fully moddable
(WIP) The game should eventually be fully moddable. See More
My Recommendation for Resident Evil: Revelations 2
Entertaining episodic story
Episode-style games are still catching on fairly quickly. It's a great way to keep people entertained and keep the content flowing. See More
Lack of detail in the visual design
One of the more plain looking Resident Evil games, the graphics are not really going to wow anyone. See More
Genre:Survival Horror, Third-Person Shooter
Co-Op:2 Player Online / 2 Player Local
Great variety
Revelations 2's episodic structure means that players switch between different characters with unique play styles. Additionally, each episode sees players exploring different locations, with a lot of cool gameplay variety. See More
The return of classic characters
Revelations 2 brings back characters like Claire and Barry, who have been missing from the Resident Evil series for years. Their absence has been disappointing, so it's great to see them returning. See More
Thoughtful gameplay
Revelations 2 uses its horror theme to encourage thoughtful play. Ammo is scarce, so players need to be thoughtful about inventory management. Players will have to solve puzzles to get through some of the encounters. Sometimes, it is wiser to sneak past enemies than shoot them. See More
The campaign isn't the only draw to the game, Raid Mode adds dozens of hours of content for you to play
Raid mode is back, and it's so much better than the first game. Raid Mode is a run-and-gun game that can be played either solo or cooperatively with a friend; you get to blast your way through enemies in short stages and upgrade your equipment on your way. You also level up in Raid Mode - you obtain a set amount of skill points and can use them to customize your character in order to make your Raid Mode experience more fulfilling. You can also unlock several characters to play as you go through the episodes of the campaign and earn achievements. See More
One of the strongest Resident Evil game in the series
RE: Revelations 2 is an excellent installment in the series. It has a very solid, engaging plot and memorable characters that keep you motivated throughout the story. See More
My Recommendation for Outlast
Your character is really agile
Unlike most horror games where your character is clumsy and slow, in Outlast your character can actually move really well. Not only is your character fast enough to be able to outrun most enemies in the game, he also knows how to parkour. You can jump, grab ledges and climb them, and even slide over a table during a chase. This makes it a really refreshing horror experience. See More
Cliche story
The typical horror story protagonist goes to investigate a location that simply oozes danger. As if the abandoned SWAT trucks, locked doors, and boarded up windows were not telling enough, the protagonist realizes his terrible mistake right when there's no way back already. See More
Genre:Horror / First-Person / Survival
Unpredictable inpatients make exploration more tense
Outlast proves that people can be much scarier than ghosts. As you explore the dark hallways of the insane asylum, you'll encounter many inpatients. Some of them good, some of them bad, but all of them crazy. So it's sometimes really hard to tell which one will attack you. While some of them make it very obvious by holding knives or looking especially atrocious, sometimes they will attack unexpectedly. This uncertainty will creep inside your head, making exploration a lot more tense. See More
A little too reliant on jump scares
In some parts of exploring the insane asylum there are too many jump scares one after another. After a while it loses its scare factor and instead becomes somewhat annoying. This feels like a missed opportunity to build on the dark and gritty atmosphere of the insane asylum. See More
Really scary
Outlast combines its tense atmosphere, creepy setting, stellar sound design, and a cast of horrifying inpatients to deliver a truly nightmarish experience. The developers even replaced the usual flashlight found in horror games with a camcorder, which has this really creep nightvision mode. See More
My Recommendation for Resident Evil 5
Exciting gameplay
Learning to manage a wave of enemies while you're running low on ammo and your teammate just got hit by an electric baton creates some of the best co-op out there. See More
AI companion can feel useless sometimes
In some sections of the game it feels like you're fighting alone because the AI companion doesn't focus the priority targets that can actually kill you. See More
Intense mercenaries mode
This mode give you the pure adrenaline you may be looking for. Score attack across most of the major stages in the game (plus a bonus Prison map). It relies on your combo counter of kills and knowing time placements and when to eliminate an enemy to best continue the combo. See More
Meaningful cooperative gameplay
Where many games have you simply "play at the same time", RE5 requires you to coordinate your actions with your partner in order to succeed. Sometimes it's as simple as doing a "three hit melee partner combo", other times you have your partner's life in your hands as you have to keep a trap from springing, or providing cover fire from afar as they navigate an area. See More
My Recommendation for Resident Evil 7: Biohazard
Intense boss fights
Even though the boss fights are packed with action, they also make you feel a bone-chilling helplessness. For example, in one of the fights you're trapped in the slaughterhouse. The door's locked and the boss is slowly walking towards you. One wrong move and you'll be decapitated by a chainsaw. It's extremely nerve-wracking to avoid it until you're able to take the boss down. See More
Regular enemies are very bland
The regular enemies are black goo people with claws. They have hardly any variation and even the crawling variants aren't very scary. It's really disappointing the developers didn't think to use any alligators (or other swamp creatures), with the game being set near a swamp. See More
Genre:Survival Horror, First-Person Shooter
Interesting story and characters
It's a lot of fun to uncover why the Baker family went mad and what happened to your missing girlfriend. The various memos, diary entries, and video tapes explain the events leading up to this. It should be enjoyable for both horror fans and other players as well. See More
Pursuers make the game suspenseful
One of the boss enemies patrols most areas. If they spot you, they will chase you and try to kill you. It's hard to tell where they'll be, because it's very easy to lose track of them. This causes you to shudder every time you open a door or turn a corner. It's even worse when they sneak up on you and start cackling maniacally. See More
My Recommendation for Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice
The infighting of voices in Senua's head is unnerving
The many voices in Senua's head, all with their own unique personalities, showcase her struggles with psychosis, with the voices either taunting Senua, picking at her weaknesses, or encouraging her to stand her ground and fight. They can also be useful in battle, with some voices warning Senua to look out behind her as a new enemy spawns and readies to attack her. Constant exposure to these voices is unsettling, because their constant back and forth with praise or insults can take a toll on you after a while. Playing with headphones on is a must in order to feel the full experience of the voices and how well they blend into the gameplay. See More
Shallow combat
Although the enemy and boss designs are top-notch, the moment-to-moment swordplay with Senua isn't as deep as it could have been. Simple presses of light attacks and heavy attacks mixed in with blocks, strafes and rolls are most of what the combat has to offer. Occasionally an enemy will be blacked out and unable to take damage, and Senua can use her Focus ability to rectify this and continue attacking normally. On one hand, it's realistic that Senua's sword fights are to-the-point, but from a gameplay perspective, things can get dull rather quickly. See More
Genre:Action-Adventure, Psychological Horror
Compelling main character
Bolstered by an award-winning performance from Melina Juergens, The story constantly pushes Senua to her limits, both through the innumerable enemies who challenge her and the voices in her head that mock her to give up her impossible journey. She is an incredibly vulnerable character who fights on with her many fears and doubts, showing a different type of protagonist in the gaming landscape. See More
Too many puzzles
Because those with psychosis are adept at pattern recognition, Senua's strength with patterns translates into puzzles to solve throughout the linear world, but they're far too numerous and overstay their welcome quite early on. They often break the pace of exploration, with too many instances of Senua needing to loop around a small area several times in order to align shadows or illusory portals to open up the path to the next area. See More
Though few in number, the boss battles in Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice are a testament to how brutal the game's combat can be, with menacing boss designs and distorted arenas that inspire true fear in their intensity. These fights put Senua's skills as a warrior to the test with telegraphed moves that she must react to swiftly, along with tight windows of opportunity for her to wound the enemy. With no UI elements for health bars, neither for Senua nor the enemies she faces, these boss fights are an exercise of patience and mettle, giving an adrenaline-filled sense of satisfaction after a hard-fought victory. See More
Powerful environments and atmosphere
Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice boasts a beautiful, yet haunted atmosphere that evokes powerful feelings of awe, with towering mountains that stretch on for miles, lakes that glitter in the sunset glow and reflect the intimidating architecture of the Norse halls throughout the environment. See More
Amazing voice acting
Melina Juergens gives a riveting performance that showcases the full range of Senua's rage, vulnerability and introspection throughout her journey. Each tremble of fear in Senua's voice and her sharp cries of pain in battle further highlight her determination to reach her goal, pressing onward in the face of insurmountable obstacles. See More
My Recommendation for Friday the 13th: The Game
Six different Jasons are playable, each one of them with advantages and disadvantages
There are six types of Jasons to choose from, each one of them based on a type of Jason that appeared in one of the movies. There's even the original Jason from the second movie with a paper bag on his head. The differences are not only cosmetic, each Jason has his own advantages and disadvantages. Part 3 Jason for example can run but has very weak stun resistance. This also changes the way all players approach the game, whether you are playing as Jason or the teenagers, you have to adapt your strategy to the type of Jason you are playing as or playing against. See More
You can't choose whether you can play as Jason or one of the victims
At the start of the game, each player's role is chosen at random. This means that you can't get to choose whether to play as Jason or a victim and there's roughly a 12.5% chance to play as Jason before a game starts. See More
Perfectly captures the feel of what it must be like to be Jason
Friday the 13th perfectly captures the feeling of playing as an extremely menacing character. You methodically hunt other players and gain more and more supernatural powers as time goes by. Some of these powers include Sense (similar to Eagle Vision in Assassin's Creed) or Morph, which lets you teleport immediately across the map. See More
Quite glitchy
The game is plagued by glitches. Especially collision detection has a lot of problems. It's not uncommon to see players walk through walls or hover in the air. See More
Communication between players is encouraged and enhances the gameplay
Communication between the teenagers (players who are playing as Jason's victims) is key to surviving and outsmarting Jason. For example, if a player has found the fuel for the car and two other players have found the keys and car engine, they can all communicate and decide to meet at the car in order to escape. See More
Playing as one of the victims may get boring quickly
Playing as one of the teenagers who are being hunted by Jason is not as fun as playing Jason himself. There are roughly four ways you can win the match: escape, survive the night, call the cops or kill Jason. The last one is the hardest to achieve since it requires a great degree of communication between players. The one you will probably choose more often is escaping which consists of finding different objects that help you make your escape (things like keys, fuel, ropes, etc.). The things you need are randomly scattered each match across the map and you have to look in every drawer, cupboard, or box to find what you need. Unfortunately that's what you will be doing 90% of the time when playing as one of the victims. See More
My Recommendation for Observer
Terrifying, mind-bending story presentation
Observer's detective story sounds simple, with you tracking down protagonist Daniel Lazarski's missing son, but the way the game presents this narrative is what counts. As you follow leads on his son's whereabouts, you'll analyze crime scenes mostly by searching through horrifying, psychedelic memories from the neural implants of dying or dead victims. These are unstable displays of augmented reality, with broken visuals filled with psychedelic colors, eerie hallucinations, and rattling jump scares. They manage to distort your own consciousness in the game, making you question the reality around you. Through these terrifying experiences, the game poses philosophical questions on the true nature of reality, such as what point technology can take over and shape what we believe is real. See More
Some frustrating, out-of-place chase sequences
Some segments of Observer force you to stealthily avoid a menacing enemy lumbering through a dark workspace or a dilapidated set of hallways, but they don't quite fit with the game's overall freedom of discovery and exploration. If you're discovered, it's game over. These parts ruin the pace and flow that you're used to from the gameplay. See More
Genre:Cyberpunk Psychological Horror
Intriguing cyberpunk world
The deserted, rain-slicked streets of the gritty city at night, filled with unsettling displays of government advertisements fits right in with the themes and media that inspired Observer's cyberpunk world. A dystopian future where augmented humans were killed off by a mysterious disease is a fascinating, if familiar concept for cyberpunk enthusiasts. It's interesting to explore this technologically-advanced world where the government has collapsed and a mega-corporation has taken over, making you wonder how you might survive in this type of setting. See More
Gameplay is limited to mostly walking around
As a "walking simulator," Observer is appealing to players who enjoy taking their time to explore and take in the environment, but it may not have enough gameplay for those looking for a more involved experience. Hacking into minds, analyzing crime scenes and moving from place to place makes up the bulk of the game. See More
Hacking into peoples' memories is an engaging way to investigate crimes
While solving cases, you can hack into a subject's memories through their augmentations, creating a new reality as you physically explore their thoughts. You'll then proceed through the scenes of their memories, listening to conversations that reveal more about the story and the world. The psychedelic visuals as you progress through these memories are unique and mind-bending, making these sequences even more exciting. These sections of Observer go above and beyond the other, more standard investigation mechanics in the game, making each crime mystery unique and exciting. See More
In-depth environmental storytelling
As you search around apartment buildings and office spaces with augmented vision, you'll come across emails, video sequences, and notes that flesh out the story. You can take your time to find out about now-extinct religions from the past, learn about the lives of the many people who died from the digital plague, and interact with each piece of evidence lying around at crime scenes. Scanning items, computers and blood stains to solve these crimes can lead you down a rabbit hole of discovering more about the world through environmental storytelling. See More
My Recommendation for Layers of Fear
Dying Light: The Following - Enhanced Edition
My Recommendation for Dying Light: The Following - Enhanced Edition
Satisfying combat
The combat is impactful, visceral, and offers a great deal of variety in terms of available weapons and different enemy types. It presents a reasonable amount of challenge that is rewarding to overcome and offers multiple ways of emerging victorious in each encounter. See More
Poor plot and characters
The story is nothing new with many elements that are just too familiar at this point. A reluctant hero and a cold government agent mixed with a rather basic plot points to a lack of imagination and an obvious attempt to create a game for the masses. See More
Genre:Open-World / Survival / FPS
Co-Op:4 Player Online / 4 Player LAN
Rewarding side-missions
There's a wide variety of side-quests and a large chunk of them are multi-part adventures with great storytelling. See More
Poor multi-threading
Sadly, Dying Light does not do multi-threading very well which results in low frame-rates. For a modern game that is to be played on consoles or PCs with multiple cores, it is mind boggling that proper multi-threading has not been taken full advantage of. This simply comes down to laziness, something that is not new to Techland and their poorly optimized ports. See More
Fluid parkour movement
The main protagonist is capable of scaling buildings, jumping over obstacles, and vaulting over zombies with ease, making traversing the open world city a lot more enjoyable. See More
Expansive weapon-crafting system
There are blueprints found throughout the gameworld that can be used to modify existing weapons in a wide variety of ways by adding various elements to them and creating weapons such as enemy-seeking grenades, exploding throwing stars, and makeshift bats with nails through them. See More
Enjoyable co-operative multiplayer
Dying Light features up to four player LAN and online co-op. See More
The Walking Dead A New Frontier
My Recommendation for The Walking Dead A New Frontier
Main character Javi is very likeable
Main protagonist Javi is a bit of screw-up and the black sheep of his family when the story starts. However, as the world starts to fall apart, he quickly grows into his own and becomes a very likeable character. He is forced into many tough situations where he is always putting his family's safety above his own, and as a result, we get to watch him grow as a person. Overall, he is very easy to relate to and it's fun to cheer him along on his journey from goofball to hero. Javi is a great new addition to the series. See More
Too many quicktime events
QTEs are used during action sequences, which is fine, but sometimes they are used in places where they are not needed, such as pushing a dumpster to block a doorway or connecting some wires. These unnecessary QTEs disrupt the pace of the story at best, and at worst, completely ruin immersion by having to repeat the same frustrating sequence over and over when you mess up. See More
Genre:Story Rich, Adventure
TWD: A New Frontier features a brand new story in The Walking Dead universe with an all new cast of characters. This time around, you play as Javi, an ex-baseball player with a gambling problem who is trying to protect his family during the zombie apocalypse. Javi is somewhat of the black sheep of the family, but as the world devolves in chaos, he is forced to step up and protect his sister-in-law, nephew, and niece after his brother disappears. The four of them hit the road together to salvage for supplies and search for a new safe place to call home. During the course of the story, you'll be fighting for survival in this messed up world, meeting interesting characters, running into plenty of problems, and making really tough choices to save yourself and your loved ones along the way. See More
Very short
For a $25 game, only having seven to eight hours of playtime among five episodes is pretty poor. Each episode is only 60-90 minutes long, whereas episodes in the other two games in the series were around three hours apiece. While the story itself is great, it is overall much, much shorter than season one and two, which may be a great disappointment to some. See More
Voice acting is incredible
Some choices will be biased towards Clementine
The whole reason season one and two existed was to tell the story of Clementine. She has grown into the beloved character of the franchise. This third installment in the series, however, has us playing as a new character named Javi. Clementine is still heavily involved the storyline, and this is where the issue arises. Sometimes we are asked to make choices as Javi that involve Clementine. However, since we've built up a strong liking for Clementine over the past two games, it's way too easy to swing all choices in her favor - even if Javi wouldn't actually make those choices himself. This can be bit a immersion breaking and make for some rather biased decisions that make little to no sense in the actual context of the story. See More
Loads of difficult and impactful choices
At the heart of this story-driven game are the wide array of interesting choices you get to make. What you say and do will have an impact on how the story plays out, so it's kind of fun to ponder each one. Characters will remember your past actions and conversations, which means all your decisions and dialogue choices carry a lot of meaningful weight. How you choose to interact with various characters will influence how they treat you down the line. Each episode contains many different dialogue paths, as well as 3-4 major heart-wrenching, tough, and super impactful decisions that literally determine the fate of each character and how the story unfolds. See More
The game is cross-platform
You can play it on PC, Mac, PS4, Xbox One, iOS, Kindle Fire HDX, and Android. See More
Huge amount of replayability
Resembling an interactive novel, TWD: A New Frontier plays out as a series of dialogue choices or decisions that result in specific actions. It's pretty interesting to replay the game many times and choose all the different ways of handling situations just to see how they play out. See More
Maintains a sense of familiarity while offering a new perspective
Even though we take on the role of the new character Javi this time around, an old fan favorite, Clementine, makes an appearance and becomes heavily involved in the story as well. The inclusion of Clementine in the story and the newfound relationship between Javi and Clem really adds a wonderful touch of familiarity to the series, while still giving us an all new story to play through. We get to see the world through Javi's eyes, instead of Clem's, which is an interesting perspective shift. See More
My Recommendation for Don't Knock Twice
Constant sense of tension due to creative use of a phone
As you wander around the mansion as Jess, you will occasionally get a text message from your daughter Chloe. It's quite a decent jump scare when you're exploring a dark, silent room, only to have the silence broken by your phone buzzing and vibrating with a loud text. The little burst of fear and subsequent jump you get each time the phone rings in the darkness is a great way to add an extra layer of tension to the game. The messages themselves are rather cryptic and creepy with Chloe often telling us she wishes we were dead. You're never quite sure when or where the phone is going to go off, making it unpredictable and tense for the duration of the game. See More
Generic story probably won't hold your interest
It's just another copy and paste paranormal story that doesn't really add anything new or exciting. You play as a mother named Jess, as she is attempting to reconnect with her estranged daughter Chloe. However, Chloe is on the run from some strange paranormal forces who are trying to harm her. In order to help her, you must search a mansion for pieces of a relic that can summon an evil witch. It's about as nonsensical as it sounds. Don't Knock Twice is based on the movie of the same name which was not well received. See More
Genre:First-Person Survival Horror
Creepy experience thanks to the setting
Exploring the mansion itself is a tense and creepy experience. Everything is unfamiliar, and there's a generous amount of disturbing moments like a bathtub filled with a sticky black substance or watching a shadowy figure get sucked out of a window. Rooms and hallways are incredibly dark, with a lot of ominous corners and shadowy spaces. Occasional scratches and tapping noises can be heard in far off rooms, making it seem like you are not entirely alone. Pictures fall off the walls and windows suddenly explode into showers of glass. There are plenty of carefully placed jump scares that create tension in all the right moments. There is no doubt you are playing a horror game, and the setting enables a very disturbing experience overall. See More
The whole game can be completed in an hour, which is a far cry from the developers' claim of a "full length experience". See More
Managing the axe is tedious
In your hand, you carry an important axe that is used to chop through locked doors and other barriers. In order to use or interact with items, sometimes you have to put down your axe. There is no inventory system, so if you put your axe down to do something else, you will have to remember to pick it up again. If you forgot you where you left it, you are left scrambling around to look for it. This is a very poorly designed system that can result in loads of frustration, tedious and unnecessary button presses, and tons of wasted time. It's also important to note that since it's very possible to forget where you left your axe, and some rooms seal off after you've explored them, it's entirely possible to hit a dead end runthrough and be forced to restart. See More
Extremely linear gameplay
The game mainly consists of going from room to room, dealing with the frights and puzzles within, and then moving onto the next room. Puzzles are basic, with the solution usually being found within the same general area. The whole game feels like it's on rails, with rooms often sealing off once you've moved to the next one. While the setting and atmosphere is highly creepy, the gameplay itself is almost like a walking simulator with added jump scares. See More
Standlone story makes it accessible for all
May distress some people
There is a lot of violence, gore, and very disturbing situations. Some people may not react well to some of the scenes. Despite the fact that the main character in this game is a young girl, this is a game for adults. See More
Genre:Adventure, Narrative, Survival Horror
Some obnoxious quicktime events
While this game is almost fully story based, there are still some fairly long and annoying quicktime events during action sequences. There are a few in particular that feel like they drag on a bit too long, and if you hit the wrong key/button at any point, you'll have to restart the event. See More
A huge amount of replayability
Resembling an interactive novel, TWD: S2 plays out as a series of dialogue choices or decisions that result in specific actions. It's pretty interesting to replay the game many times and choose all the different ways of handling situations just to see how they play out. See More
Choice of protagonist increases emotional impact
Viewing the story through the eyes of Clementine, a young child from the first season, is an interesting choice and makes some of the decisions you have to make even more heartbreaking. Not only is she growing up, she is growing up in the midst of a brutal zombie apocalypse where survival is rough, and life or death choices have to be made on the fly. Experiencing some of the game's situations from the viewpoint a young girl make them even more disturbing and troubling, increasing their emotional impact. See More
Dynamic and impactful decisions
Surviving in the midst of a zombie apocalypse is hard, and oftentimes decisions will require you to make heart-wrenching choices to progress the story. In most cases, there are no easy or pleasant solutions to most of the scenarios the story places you in. However every choice you make, be it through dialogue or an action, will influence the story playing out in a new way. Characters will also remember your past interactions with them, which results in the story playing out in dynamic ways. For example, at times you can choose whether or not to help other characters. If you do, they may remember your kindness later in the game. If you don't, they may not trust you in the long run. Characters also remember your dialogue choices, and it will always influence later events. See More
Gripping and emotional story
TWD: Season 2 continues the story about the struggle to survive during a brutal zombie apocalypse. You play as Clementine, a young girl from the first season, who is growing up in a cruel world. Food and resources are scarce, and people will do whatever they feel they must do to survive. Not only are the hordes of zombies a constant threat, but people are also dangerous with hidden motives. The story does a really good job showcasing the lengths people will go to to survive, and constantly offers up interesting and tough decisions for you to make. It hits on every emotional level. There are moments of horror, sadness, tragedy, and even a little humor thrown in. Through meaningful dialogue and character interactions, the game is able to flawlessly switch gears between them creating a very gripping and emotional story. See More

Prince William Proves He Can Juggle It All During Royal Trip to Ireland
Prince William and Kate Middleton enjoyed the final day of their royal trip to Ireland on Thursday. At one point, the duke and duchess visited a restaurant and William displayed his juggling skills

Prince William is a husband, a father of three and the Duke of Cambridge. However, the 37-year-old royal reminded fans he can juggle it all (literally) during his visit to Galway on Thursday.
While attending an event at the restaurant Tribeton, William and Kate Middleton learned about the important roles the arts and culture play in terms of driving community spirit, participation and social inclusion. After speaking with a few attendees, William decided to display some of his own skills by juggling. He managed to keep three balls in the air and received a round of applause from the Duchess of Cambridge and the event's guests. However, he didn't have as much luck after a fourth ball was thrown into the mix.
"I've only done this once before. This never works," he told the crowd before giving it a go, per a video shared by the Connacht Tribune. He then added, "[I'll] stick with three."
The event was held in honor of Galway 2020 as the city hosts the European Capital of Culture on behalf of Ireland.
Kate wore a green Valerie midi polka-dot dress by Suzannah London for the occasion and accessorized her look with a Jimmy Choo clutch and a pair of Daniella Draper earrings that featured shamrock charms.

The dynamic duo also stopped by the Tig Coili pub to listen to some music and meet with people who volunteer to promote the city. In addition, they took a moment to greet a group of well-wishers and displayed their athleticism by playing a little hurling.

Today marked the last day of the couple's trip to Ireland. They certainly had a full itinerary over the past few days and enjoyed everything from Guinness tasting to overlooking the Irish Sea. They also volunteered at Savannah House and visited Jigsaw, the National Centre for Youth Mental Health.

If you haven't already noticed, we're pretty into finding the best "quick fixes" and saving you time and money here at LittleThings. Sometimes that means turning trash into treasure and sometimes, like in this next video, that means finding an alternate purpose for an everyday household item.
We've seen it been done before in this video about using shaving cream foam to clean and create a barrier for fog in this video and again here, where you can actually remove scratches from wood with a nut of all things, but what they use in this next video is the most surprising one yet.
One important part of your car that's easy to forget about is your headlights. You want to always make sure they stay clear for nighttime, because with all the dirt and dust in the air, they get dirty pretty quickly. We've learned in the past that you can try bug spray and a sock to get the job donequickly, but if you want to keep your headlights bright for as long as possible, this video guarantees that the same method we use on our teeth works wonders.

Star Wars collectors living in Europe, or almost any other non-U.S. location, had the opportunity during the release of the Special Editions to purchase Chupa Chup lolly pops, complete with special wrappers. Nine different wrapper designs featuring Star Wars characters protected the lolly pops. Each lolly pop contained a Star Wars character imprinted inside the lolly pop. Each wrapper had a special Star Wars sticker attached to the inside of the label. There were 24 different stickers to collect. Completing a set of these stickers is difficult, but not impossible. And trying gives you the fun of eating all those lolly pops. :o) What is truly difficult to complete, if you are inclined to try, is a collection of all of the different character imprints on the lolly pops. Although these are poorly done, and difficult to see, they are also an interesting item.
Collectors in Spain were able to obtain a poster with places to place each sticker, similar to a checklist, for this sticker set.

Former India skipper Sunil Gavaskar said he would not be "too disappointed" even if India lost the ongoing Twenty20 International series in New Zealand as the focus of the team was on World Cup. India suffered a crushing 80-run defeat in the first game of the three-match series in Wellington on Wednesday.
"India need a mix of both [experiment for the World Cup and focus on winning series in New Zealand]. The World Cup is just a few months away. To arrive on a final squad, there needs to be a few experiments. In this T20I series, you could get an idea of who the team can look at [for the World Cup]. The likes of Vijay Shankar can be observed. Even in T20Is, you can figure out if the players will be suited for the 50-over format or not," Gavaskar told Sports Tak.
Gavaskar also said India can experiment with their playing XIs and try out different combinations in the T20 series in New Zealand to get an idea how the players handle pressure.
"Yes, you need to win matches in New Zealand. But the T20 World Cup is far away, it's in October 2020. I won't be very disappointed even if India lose this T20I series. If the performances are good, then there's no problem. The team is right now focused on the World Cup. Thus it's important that chances are given to players like Vijay Shankar, Rishabh Pant and Krunal Pandya. The way they handle pressure here will give the team an idea of whether they are ready for the World Cup or not," Gavaskar said.

AFLW's Lessons Can Create Everyone's Success Story
By Belinda Parkes
June 9th, 2017 Make a commentDiversity & Inclusion
When the Adelaide Crows and Brisbane Lions ran onto the football field in March this year for an AFL grand final, history was made. What made it significant was all the players were women.
For Sam Mostyn, deputy chair of Diversity Council Australia and recently appointed Sydney Swans board member, the inaugural women's AFL season was a vision she had been championing since her 2005 appointment as the code's first female commissioner.
Mostyn is a staunch advocate for greater inclusion in our workplaces.
She says while the modern boardroom is becoming stronger and more diverse, there are still many who hold onto a traditional like-minded core of decision makers at the top.
Changing a culture takes active leadership, says Mostyn, but is important in ensuring an organisation's longevity.
"I think diversity and inclusion is a contemporary form of leadership that ensures they are building a sustainable organisation," says Mostyn.
Changing a #culture takes active #leadership, says Sam Mostyn
"Good leaders understand they have to take a stand, and if they have to break the rules to do it they will."
Mostyn says women have played Aussie Rules for 20 years but it was only when the AFL board stopped being exclusively male that the female players had an avenue to pursue their desire for their competition taken more seriously.
She says the foresight of then AFL chairman Ron Evans to seek out a female representative for what had always been an exclusively male board has secured this iconic Australian sport's longevity.
Evans recognised that 50 per cent of Australian Football League supporters, and 30-40 per cent of its viewing audience, were female – yet they had no representation at its helm.
He sought permission to change the constitution to allow for a diversity criteria application and 10 women around the country were headhunted for the job, which ultimately went to Mostyn.
His instinct was right.
Mostyn kept the women's league cause on the board's agenda and, when Channel 7 televised the first women's exhibition game in 2013, more than 1 million people tuned in.
It showed the potential a women's league had for securing new sponsorship opportunities, attracting a wider talent base within the league, maintaining active engagement in the game and creating a new brand that could maintain momentum in the traditional AFL off-season.
The base for the model of a game, not played anywhere else in the world, had been secured, says Mostyn.
"Having women involved will create a sustainable workplace better than anything else that could have been done," she says.
#AFLW is one of the best examples of the #sustainability of #diversity
Mostyn's experience crosses the sporting, political, corporate and not-for-profit realms but she says diversity and inclusion is a necessity for all sectors.
She began her career in law working for former high court judge Michael Kirby. At the time, says Mostyn, he was the only judge to split his salary so he could always recruit two associates – one male and one female.
"When I entered law firms [after Michael Kirby] I became aware of an inherent bias against women and really felt the pressure of a male culture," says Mostyn.
"It was a very oppressive place to be."
She left law to work in the government and was there recruited to work in the Prime Minister's office as a policy advisor to Paul Keating, another boss she praises for being 'recruitment blind' to gender.
Mostyn is highly sought for her leadership and sits on a vast number of boards and non-executive director positions, including Mirvac, a company which has intentionally sought to form a gender-neutral board.
"I don't feel like I am a woman on this board, I feel free to be a member…it feels just like the world I work in, it feels normal," says Mostyn.
"The more you remove the idea of a minority status, the more you free up that person to be a whole person.
"It is what we expect now of a modern, contemporary workplace."

Most important ranking factor is Page Rank. Page rank is based on number of incoming links from other sites.
See what Matt Cutts says about Serving results.
"After Submitting query by user, Google software searches Google index to find every page that includes those search terms. There are hundreds and thousands of possible results. Then how Google finds relevant result?
Google checks those 200+ SEO factors. Like how many times those search terms appearing on webpage? Do those searched words appeared in title, in URL and any other keyword places? Does page contain synonym of search words. Is the page is high quality or low quality or spamming? What is page rank of the page?

Here are some pictures of the house. It was very spacious inside and had lots of interesting features. For example, one wall was built with cement and bottles – it looks really neat! I liked the inside garden. It is intended to act as a greenhouse throughout the winter. Jordan also used a lot of glass pieces in his floor and on his countertop, so the whole place looks like a piece of artwork. It was definitely worth the trip to go and see it!


He pointed to "similarities between the policies of the Muslim Brotherhood and Mubarak's National Democratic Party," whose members often were wealthy businessmen believed to have benefited from government policies. Abdo noted that the Muslim Brotherhood, the country's best-organized political group, already dominates the country's Parliament and the constituent assembly charged with writing a new constitution.
He called el Shater "another version of Ahmed Ezz," a steel tycoon who was Hosni Mubarak's most economically powerful supporter. Ezz was detained after Mubarak was forced from office and is now in jail on a list of corruption, fraud and money laundering charges.
El Shater made his money in a range of businesses that included furniture, textiles, car manufacturing and banking. He was regularly detained and imprisoned under Mubarak, whose regime called him the outlawed Brotherhood's top financier and money launderer.
In 2006, el Shater along with 40 top members of the movement were arrested and charged with planning a parade held by dozens of masked Muslim Brotherhood students at al Azhar University. All the defendants were acquitted in a civilian court.
But in 2007, Mubarak ordered the defendants retried before a military tribunal, which handed them varying jail terms in April 2008. El Shater received a sentence of seven years, the longest military sentence ever handed to a Muslim Brotherhood member.
In addition, el Shater's and his family's possessions were confiscated and his bank accounts frozen. Government sources valued the confiscated and frozen assets at $13 million, a fraction, economists estimate, of his real fortune.
But the real size of el Shater's fortune remains a mystery, as does his role in the Muslim Brotherhood. He's declined to speak with reporters since his nomination last weekend. The first round of presidential voting is scheduled for May 23.
High-ranking members of the Brotherhood and the Freedom and Justice Party defended his nomination. Mohamed Morsi, the party's head, called his nomination "the chance to accomplish the civilized project of building the new Egypt."
"It will be the development train for this nation," Morsi said.
But the image of a wealthy man becoming the president backed by a movement that also controls Parliament and the other levers of power unnerves others.
"We revolted against a regime of corrupt businessmen and now we are being asked to vote for a mysterious businessman to become president," said Muhammad AbdelMeged, a 27 year-old information technology worker. "No one knows how he became that rich. All we know is that he spent long years in jail, and he still owns businesses worth millions."
Even those who worked with the Muslim Brotherhood in the last elections are voicing concern that the Brotherhood is becoming too powerful.
"They started with a Parliament majority, then controlling the constitutional assembly, and now they are seeking both the prime minister and presidential posts," said Mohamed Sami, the head of the Karama Party, which was part of an alliance the Brotherhood led during Egypt's parliamentary elections. "They are planning to seize all positions of power.
"It reminds me of the National Democratic Party," Sami said, referring to the party headed by Mubarak. "In spite of all that the brotherhood suffered under Mubarak, they did not learn from history."

Жалувана грамота дворянству 1785 () — законодавчий акт Російської імперії, який видала 2 травня (21 квітня) 1785 року імператриця Катерина II. Жалувана грамота дворянству завершила процес оформлення станових прав і привілеїв дворянства.

Складалася із вступу, 4 розділів і 92 статей. Грамота узаконювала створення дворянських станових організацій (див. дворянські збори), визначала їхнє місце і роль у формуванні повітових і губернських органів управління і судочинства. Вона закріплювала наявне неповноправне становище в державі міщанства і станову структуру місцевого управління, таким чином істотно обмежуючи функції міської думи та магістрату. За міською думою та магістратом залишалися тільки функції розподілу і збору податків, нагляду за виконанням державних повинностей та вирішення питань, пов'язаних із благоустроєм міста. Реальна місцева влада зосереджувалася в руках городничого та управи благочиння.

Q: microsoft bot framework and luis I want to create an bot which has to prompt the user for text. if the information provided by the user is general and not specific. for ex:
if we ask the bot : how many alphabets is in the language?
  then the bot should ask : in what language?
How to achieve this?

A: To follow along with the example you provided:

*

*Create an LUIS intent named, for example, "Determine Language Alphabet"

*Train the intent using a phrase such as "How many alphabets are in [language]", where [language] is a word like English or Japanese that you've wrapped in an entity name "language"

*In your code, take the Luis Result and try to find a "language" entity. If it's not found, prompt the user to enter a language/repeat the query with a language

This process will help you get started with understanding how Luis intents and entities can be used to help you better interact with users.
Using Node JS and LUIS
Using .NET and LUIS
