 Unidentified, by Douglas E. Richards, is a SF novel. In this one, an author decides to create a hoax, saying he is going to reveal the truth about UFOs, which causes a number of groups to chase them, and ultimately he does learn the truth about UFOs. I do like most of the author's books, but this one was much less enjoyable than the others. The writing seems off, and one would think that he was getting paid by twist/reveal. Not exactly bad, but certainly not great. I guess it is nice that I got it from Kindle Unlimited...

 Curse of the Dead Gods is a top-view action RPG.  I really like the graphics, and there are quite a few mechanics different from the usual, in particular the use of curses that alter the rules. Tutorials are good (and repeat until you show you got the special move, such as parrying or combos).  There is stuff that can be used after each run for upgrades (which now I guess is mostly common), and the use of maps were you choose between options (which always reminds of Slay the Spire, but are everywhere now) such as healing, attributes, etc. Update - 13/Dec/2021 - Still playing regularly. My favorite thing about the game is how different it can be - weapons, relics, and the events (which change the rules, sometimes radically) can completely change the way you play. For example, some events come with a vert overpowered bow which adds corruption on every kill. Sometimes relics or weapons heal you, if you kill the enemies with that weapon, or sometimes using traps. Relics and weapons also i

 Machinehood, by S.B. Divya, is a SF novel. It takes place on the 2090s, in a very interesting future world - personal agents are used for everything, drone swarms follow you everyone (and you can get tipped for anything interesting you do), people constantly take pills (which include micro/nano machines, apparently) to get themselves stronger/smarter/heal faster/cure the new manufactured diseases, and smart matter is everywhere - furniture, clothes, etc. On that world, Olga Ramirez, ex-military (who left after being betrayed by the government), and with plenty of military hardware, is now a shield - a mix of a bodyguard and a performance artist, who shields important people from protesters. But a group rises that demands that people stop being made to compete with machines, and that the AIs, even if not sentient, be set free. I really liked this one. The worldbuilding was just great, and the I really liked the tech. The actions was good, and the ending was very appropriate.

 Styx: Master of Shadows is a stealth PC game.  It is a bit old, and that certainly shows in the graphics. Sound is good, and the overall stealth system seems ok, with the usual lights making you easier to detect, carpets dampening sound, etc. Seems ok overall, but nothing out of the ordinary for now. I'm also having some problem with finding the ways to objectives - seem a little too open in that aspect.

 Weapons of Math Destruction is a SF novel in a dystopia where people gave computers too much power and they took control, subjecting the people without power to horrible conditions... Oh, wait. No, that is just how our world works now, not SF... It shows a bunch of ways where algorithms are f people up (specially poor people, who can't fight back) - credit reports being used to hire (or not hire) people, scheduling software making impossible for people to do anything else (other jobs, education, etc), social networks destroying democracy... And much more. I recommend reading this - in the vague hopes that more people being aware of the problem will help change things.

 Dawn - by Octavia Butler - is a SF novel, and the first in the Xenogenesis series. Humankind really messed things up, and killed pretty much everyone in nuclear wars. But after that, the main character is in a cell being questioned by someone who won't appear. That could be considered a spoiler, but it is what everyone thought - aliens. They are "good", in the sense that they want to save mankind, but they have a price... Nice world building, although uncomfortable at times. She went with the "alien use biology for everything", which is not new but not that overused. Overall, good, and I will definitely continue with the series.

 Snake Eyes is the third book in the God & Monsters series - a fantasy series where all the gods and monsters are real, and in Earth. The series has completely separate stories (except for a few lines referencing events in the other books). What I really liked about this one is that the gods/monsters were really obscure by comparison, so it felt much fresher than the others (who felt a bit like American Gods or Supernatural episodes).

 John Wick Hex is a tactical shooter, which seems somewhat appropriate to the character. It immediately reminds of my favorite in the genre (probably, might be forgetting something) - Silent Storm, which I really liked. It did have more stealth, which I really liked (including throwing knives, which would have gone great here). This one is quite different, as combat systems go. There is no real inventory (just bandages and a single gun you are carrying), and steps are more limited. Tutorial is a little weak. Graphics are cell shaded, and look fine. John goes around hitting or shooting people, and can also crouch or take cover to break sightlines. Overall, it is nice, but probably a little tiresome. I will update if I play more (I know there are bosses, for example, which might have interesting changes).

 Black Future 88 is an interesting platform shooter, with nice cyberpunk graphics and music. It is a rogue-like, with unlocks as you get points, and plenty of possible in-game upgrades and weapons. I didn't like the fight system, though, which pretty much ruins the whole thing...

Mythbreaker, by Stephen Blackmoore, is the second book in the Gods and Monsters fantasy series, in which gods are real. This is a bit similar in some ways to the first book, but it does go into a slightly different area - this time, the main protagonist is a prophet (which obviously reminds me of Supernatural). Like in Supernatural, the prophet is pretty messed up, an addict and assumes he is crazy. There are a lot of intersting battles, the book follows American Gods and give new concepts godhood (the Internet, the man, big money), but then we have a twist about the prophet's powers. It looks like an interesting idea by the end, but then I assume the whole thing is over (looks like a tough topic to write a book about AND be fun). There is a mild reference to the events in the first book, but it is just a shared universe for the series - no major recurring characters. Overall, pretty enjoyable, specially the end.
