    Let's start the month right: with another free game. I mean, it would
    be better if we started with a GOOD free game, but beggars can't be
    choosers ;-)

    Not that this game seems terrible, just very, very amateur. It
    screams Indie game, from its tone to its purchased assets to
    its genre. "Overcome" is yet another in a long line of
    'psychological horror' narrative games and from what I can tell,
    it doesn't do anything particularly well or is in any way
    innovative. But it's not terrible, it's got some positive
    reviews, and --if you are somewhat forgiving of its unpolished
    gameplay and visuals-- might actually be worth a playthrough.


    Get it, or don't. You have a week to decide anyway.
