Hello Everyone,

as there is now a so-called user project topic on steamgifts I take the chance to introduce my curator group, which was created during the summer of 2017. Most of the things I introduced to such a curator type group was "inspiration" for others, but one thing is still making my achievement-related curator group unique:

I believe that achievement is just a bonus, a nice bonus, but the most important is to play an enjoyable game. This is why we try to curate fun, interesting games only. There are still some +1 perfect game quality projects on the curator, from older days (removing bad quality ones is in progress).

Features of the curator:

  • each game rated with a number from 1 to 10 so you will have some clue how difficult to get all achievement in that game. As an achievement hunter, I always felt it is a missing feature on every single achievement tracker site.
  • Perfection times
  • informative curator highlights. Useful information about the game on its store page without influencing your main steam store page with unwanted recommendations.
  • useful information. How many playthroughs required? Are there MP-DLC locked achievements on the said game?
  • detailed review on many games and now on every single newly curated game, with a few exceptions, but later those will get one too. Not every single game has detailed reviews, older ones not. I believe our reviews very useful, as we not just write down what is already on store page, we write down our feelings about the game.
  • I try to make an achievement guide for games I play if the game doesn't have any.
  • YT channel to add full speedrun walkthroughs to my guides so players can easily find a straightforward video if they get stuck on some part of the game instead of all the commentary videos where the YTer recorded first run and you need to watch one-hour gameplay to figure out a 60seconds puzzle solution, etc.
  • Every single game added to lists, based on their completion time. Will you have 10hours playtime during the weekend and looking for a game with that perfection time? Browsing our lists helps you to find such a game easily.

We add perfectable and fun games to our curator every time we finished a game. Yes, we play all game completly, not just posting some bullshit after 30mins gameplay:-)

https://www.youtube.com/c/AverageAchievementHunter

YT used for content overviews about some games and full walkthroughs, preferrably straightforward ones with timestamps, not those where you need to watch the user to spend 30mins until he finally figure out what to do.

https://twitter.com/cheevos_hunt

Twitter used for notifications when a new game added to our curator.

Any comment or feedback appreciated. We are not prefect, and we see this project just as hobby, where we want to share some useful informations about games, about their completion/perfection times and how difficult it was. Our reviews will represent our own experiences, you won't see paid positive reviews, just like no ads on vids, walkthroughs or any commercials (unless right for ads claimed by 3rd party because of music/songs etc on the video game)

Giveaways

Being a member of the group unlocks some giveaways on steamgifts, but there wasnt any notable since christmas, I don't have much time for steamgifts recently.

Current projects/incoming reviews during next 1-2 week(s):

Gravewood High Stealth horror game, randomization of area upon death makes this game somewhat unique compared to regular stealth/horror games. Review will be up right after release, just like video gameplay review and achievement guide.
Minute of Islands Unique art game and will be on our curator in near future, but only with linked review, no video
The Last Campfire Good puzzle game, will be posted on our curator with an All In One video walkthrough
and might be more...:-)

Thanks:-) Unfortunately, my AVGC perfection rate went down a lot a few years ago when a "developer" team changed their 1 achievement games to 5k each and I refused to start those to auto-unlock all 5k spam achievements in each of that ~30 games. Those games now on 1/5k:-) LoL. At that time I played some games which provided +1 perfect game count within 0,1-1h, even if it wasn't interesting, but that "event" made me play only charming games, or games I am interested in:-)

I don't remember how nor when I knew about your curator, but your reviews are nearly always giving me clues about the titles you reviewed, and what I can expect from playing them even without being a perfectionnist cheevos hunter myself :-)

I can't believe I didn't find this group before when I specifically went looking for groups that reviewed achievement difficulty. I don't like playing games purely for achievement hunting; if a game isn't fun to play, why waste any time playing it? But I do like to know how hard achievements are to obtain before I decide whether to attempt to 100% it. And you have reviewed so many games, both games I love and ones that I've never heard of!

Seriously, this was exactly what I was looking for in a steam curator. Joined group and followed curator. Thanks for doing these!

Followed the curator and joined the group. I like the extra amount of information well-made curation supplies. While I rather not have anything like achievements in my games to distract from the actual gameplay it's something almost impossible to avoid and this will give me a heads-up if there's anything I should avoid because of stupid or broken achievement implementation.

Cool. Yes, broken and stupid achievements unliked, however, the main reason I like achievements because most of the time they give hints if you missed something in the game. Secrets, endings, missed sidequests, etc. Or, it gives clues for alternate gameplay or goals to replay a game differently / with a different nation if it is a strategy game.

We played, perfected and added to our curator the following games:

A brand new, lovely, and cute adventure game:
Spirit of the North

A 2020 new episode release of one of the best tower defense genre, in which 100% achievements now possible because of a recent patch:
Gemcraft Frostborn Wrath

A game which was bundled many times, so probably known already for many:
Pony Island

A hidden gem, which might be an RPGmaker game, but with 97% positive of 14k+ reviews might deserve some attention:
OneShot

We also reviewed each of these games. Spirit of North received a walkthrough and achievement guide from us.

Our activity in the last 7 days, usually on Wednesday or Thursday:

We played, perfected and added to our curator the following games:

A free to play and funny game. 97% review score, they are all wrong?

There Is No Game : Jam Edition 2015

A free to play visual novel:

Carpe Diem

A new influencer simulator game. It is weird, sometimes funny, sometimes not. Perhaps not worth the price but during good sales might be an option:

TUBELIVE

A cheap, but good time waster zombie game, with 90% review score:

Zombo Buster Rising

A brand new cyberpunk point of click game. If you liked the 90s Lucasarts point and click games then this is a must to play. Furthermore, the game has very good music/soundtracks.

VirtuaVerse

A challenging puzzle game with ~80 levels:

Simple Machines

2 Episodes of old, but still good and famous puzzle platformer game, both with a decent 95% review score:

Trine Enchanted Edition
Trine 2: Complete Story

We also reviewed each of these games.

I created a speedrun walkthrough for the decent cyberpunk point and click game Virtuaverse:

Hi Csontzuzo, just wanted to pop by and say thanks for the Uayeb guide, which I just started playing today.
I don't play many open-world/survival/crafting games, but this has given me a good understanding of how and what I need to do in the game, and I now know what to refer to if I ever get stuck. XD

Thanks!

You are welcome, it is a nice little game. Looks old by today's standard but the Maya sites are very fun. My only problem with that game was that the big open world area felt empty and boring. I hope you will enjoy it.

**Our activity in the last 7-9 days, the last update is on 30th May 2020:

We played, perfected and added to our curator the following games:**

Another game with very good reviews, 92%+ from 13k+. Twin-stick shooter, which easier on co-op and some achievements also require MP.

Helldrivers

An older, relaxing, 3D platformer with parkour elements. Old or not, 95% positive review from 13k+ reviews. While it is cheap, it is also a short game.

Refunct

A challenging Metroidvania Soulslike action game:

Blasphemous

A time management game, which massproduced by the publisher but as it is a big publisher every single of their game come out without profile limited status and sometimes could be fun to waste some time with this kind of games:

Viking Heroes

We also reviewed each of these games.

bump, in last 1 month our curator expanded with even more games, some of them were older games, some were new releases. We included review (hopefully quality one) to each of our curator highlights, so you can keep informed about game lenghts, perfection time, DLC requirements and also read our opinion about the game. We also created some achievement/collectible guides and walkthroughs on some of the new releases. I not updated this topic recently so I not going to give a complete list, check our page and explore some cool games:-)

If you like our curator group please join and follow:-)

I update this topic very rarerly. Our follower number increasing usually with 1-2 each day and the best followers are those who interested on the curator:-) I still decided to do one update here, as someone might looking for such a group/curator. Each of the curated games has linked reviews or achievement guides and all of those made by us.

Our latest reviewed games:
Dreamscaper : 100% dif.: 7/10. Strikingly polished Early Access roguelite with fantastic visuals, hauntingly beautiful music, satisfying and fluid combat and an addicting loop. 100% time: ~20 hours

Raji: An Ancient Epic : 100% dif.: 4/10 Beautiful action adventure about Hindu gods, but clunky controls. Few missables and collectibles to do on a single save, no backtracking or level select. 100% time: 5h

Paper Beast - Folded Edition : 100% dif.: 4/10 Artistic walking simulator with puzzles. 1 playthrough enough, chapters replayable, very easy to get missed collectibles or achievements, but one cheevos very annoying. 100% time: 4-6h

9 monkeys of Shaolin : 100% dif.: 4/10 A fun beat em up with Shaolin monks. MP or controller required for the co-op achievements. Play on Legend difficulty, beat stages without deaths, levels are replayable. 100% time: 5h

Embracelet : 100% dif.: 2/10 Story oriented adventure game. 2 playthroughs required and there are some missable achievements. Walkthrough and guide now available on steam. 100% time: 6-8h

Drake Hollow : 100% dif.: 5/10 Cute action adventure game. 2MP cheevos. 1 walkthrough enough, but the real challenge is to get all notes as map and note locations random. Other achievements easy. 100% time: 25-35h+

Newest game on our curator is SKYE, which is a free relaxing exploration experience while flying a small hydroplane. It is a student project, but the 93% review score guarantees a solid experience and ca.2hours enough to get all achievements.

I usually dont bump this topic, we get our daily 1-2 followers just by users who finds us on steam or reading one of our guides/reviews:-)

But if you want some useful information about a game, want to browse curated lists about enjoyable and perfectable games then check out our curator page:-)
(we still in the process to clear up some not fun, +1 low quality game from the early era of the curator)

Curator keep expanding with more and more enjoyable games, and this is just a simple bump so if you like to see the reviews and some hints about how long the game, how much effort you need if you want to perfect game.... then follow. If not, then don't:-)

One of the latest addition to the curator was Dorfromantik. My high score is 41050, what is yours?

If anyone looking for a good story oriented game, while ALL achievement story-related and you don't need to care about missable collectibles, etc, then you could check out the newest game on our curator, which is Hitchhiker and if you want to read a cool review about it: A quirkistic Hitchhiker review
Perfection time: ~3h

We get our daily +1 followers naturally and we not running the curator just for numbers, so this topic not really bumped many times, but eventually i do. So if you interested in what we doing then check out our curator or if you need a game suggestion based on completion times, then browse our lists, or eventually if you want to check out my YT channel and have some suggestions... then go ahead:-)
Next video and curated game: Gravewood High

Hey,

Looks like no one here is interacting with this topic. So you should not bump it only to write you gain followers or reviewed a new game:

Unreasonable bumping. When bumping a discussion you should try to ensure it is in the best interest of the community. If you notice our community is not engaging with the content after it has been bumped a couple of times, then you need to stop bumping the discussion unless important new information or updates would make it appropriate to do so.
