I’ll get World of Goo 2 on a sale.
Interested in Castaway. Hoping it reviews well.

2SillyG6:29am

Just Emio for me, and I’m keen on Thank Goodness You’re Here if a physical release surfaces (and/or a DRM-free PC version).

3Lightsiyd6:39am

Shadow of the Ninja Reborn, Cat Quest III, and Steamworld Heist II. Good times 😁 I’d give Mika and the Witches Mountain a shot if there’s a demo.

4Anti-Matter6:54am

Cat Quest 3 is one of my choice.
But, i will get the PS5 version first, then the Switch version after that.

5Yousef-7:12am

I’m actually slowly getting hyped for this. My friend really likes this series so I’m really interested in what the smiling man is smiling about, wonder if it’s a funny joke that’s stuck in his head. Happens to the best of us.

6Lizuka7:19am

Definitely getting Emio, still trying to decide if I want to get Tomba now or wait.

7Ace-Lucario7:33am

Only interested in Emio. But I won’t be getting it on launch anyway since any money I would manage to get would go to the first two games first.

8Late8:21am

Already preordered SteamWorld Heist II (digital) and Emio (physical). Heist was one of my favorite games on 3DS and still my favorite SteamWorld game. I hope the sequel is just as good if not better.

Looking forward to Shadow of the Ninja. Tengo Project do fantastic work with their remakes.

SteamWorld Heist 2 takes priority for me this month but I’ll also be getting Volgarr the Viking 2, Vividlope, Castaway and Shadow of the Ninja – Reborn
I’m gonna skip Emio – The Smiling Man: Famicom Detective Club for now as I haven’t played the first two games yet and from what I’ve heard Tomba! Special Edition has a few issues that need to be patched so that’s a pass for now as well

11JohnnyMind10:03am

Great selection of games in general and even personally as I’m interested in trying most of these myself at some point (and some I haven’t heard of before but intrigue me, Tales from Toyotoki for example)!

12UltimateOtaku9110:38am

Cat Quest 3 and Natsu-Mon for me, I was interested in Tales from Toyotoki but after watching some gameplay I’ve decided against it, the game uses real world still images for its backgrounds which I think is super lazy for a visual novel.

Some other games il be getting this month are Reincarnated as a Slime, Elrentaros and Visions of Mana.

13PinderSchloss11:09am

Castaway is such a waste of talent to create something so derivative.

14NintendoWife11:54am

Emio! Never imagined they’d produce an all-new entry 35 years after the first two titles. And physical 🥹

Vividlope looks genuinely interesting to me. Realistically too, it’s the only game that releases before the deluge opens toward the end of August. My gaming time is basically booked with high profile releases for the majority of the year already. I’d probably have gotten Emio if it would’ve been announced earlier, but as it is, I’ve committed to Wukong instead now for the latter portion of August, and with Astro Bot early September and Zelda late September, and October being absolutely ridiculous, it may be waiting a while for my purchase…

16SometimesGhost1:26pm

I’m definitely interested in Emio! Besides that, I’ve never heard of Tales from Toyotoki before but it looks cute, and Aksys is putting out a physical edition.

18the_beaver1:29pm

TOMBIIIIII!!! I didn’t know it was already out! I’ve been waiting to replay that game for ages, what a fantastic and unique experience! I hope you guys make a review of it.

Also interested in a bunch of good-looking indie games (that I would get on a sale), and that Emio sounds interesting as well. Let’s see.

19World1:35pm

Huh, there’s more coming out in August than I thought! Of this list, I plan to play Cat Quest III and maybe Shadow of the Ninja with a friend.

Other August releases on my list are both otomes/VNs: Hanaemu Kare to & Bloom (importing the JP version with English subs) and Hakuoki (have already played and 100%’d it on Steam, but I’m interested in the localization changes and seeing how it looks on the Switch OLED).

20TheBigK1:41pm

Playing World of Goo on the toilet and calling it World of Poo

21Tyranexx3:06pm

Definitely SteamWorld Heist II and Emio, but at later dates. I might grab both of the earlier FDC games if they happen to go on discount around the time Emio launches….According to DekuDeals, they haven’t went on discount once. Sorry, but $35 a pop ($60 for the double pack) is steep for a VN.

22nilcam3:11pm

Gundam Breaker is my most anticipated game this month. Cast Away is a maybe.

23anoyonmus32m ago

Im honestly waiting for Into the Pit (FNAF). But thats just me.

24PikaPhantom47s ago

Surprised Crypt Custodian didn’t make the list with the prerelease buzz it’s gotten
