The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood is a gorgeously designed and written interactive narrative experience. There are enough twists and turns throughout to make the story far from obvious. A story that aims to explore societal issues through a feminist and LGBTQIA+ lens, without a hateful agenda is an incredibly warming experience. The choices, while not always expanding, give a lot of replay value. Particularly the crafting of the tarot deck as you wish it to be seen means that people will have many more hours of enjoyment in front of them beyond the first playthrough. The endings can be a little wild, and the game does seem to lose its tight vision towards the final act, but for the most part this is an enjoyable interactive narrative. The game isn’t devoid of gameplay elements and it continues strong as a result. A must play for fans of the interactive narrative genre.

Super Magbot is a game that is hard to recommend, for those that like a good challenge or games that break tradition, then this is perfect, but if you are someone who likes to be able to jump in your platformer, then look elsewhere. Due to the often-rigid nature of the levels, mistiming a jump or aiming poorly, will result in death and while it is but a blip in the runtime, dying multiple times in a row does get frustrating. Just don’t let the wonderful pixel art fool you, Super Magbot is a hard game, it will test your skill and patience, you just have to as yourself if it is worth it, for me, it isn’t.
