How we pick them
We compare the tags the Steam community gives each game with our own classification: what you do (action, story, building…), the difficulty, how long sessions last and whether you play alone or with others. Nobody pays to appear.
About Cryptmaster
You lead four heroes raised by a necromancer through a grid-based crypt, and everything is done by typing: you fight by typing out skills, guess words to earn new ones and solve riddles. You can also speak into a microphone.
