Is This Seat Taken? is one of the rare puzzle games that manages to be both relaxing and engaging, funny and heartfelt. It’s the kind of game you can recommend to anyone, whether they want something light and cozy or a clever set of challenges to chew on. It's easy to say , Is This Seat Taken? is a delightful, cozy puzzle adventure that is as funny as it is clever. It is one of the best feel-good puzzle games in years, and I cannot recommend it enough.
A flawed but charming treasure hunt that offers a relaxing escape, perfect for moments when you just want to slow down and enjoy the simple pleasures of gaming.
If Tripwire wants to salvage this, it will take more than patches. It will require humility, serious reworking of core systems, and a willingness to actually listen to the community that helped build this franchise in the first place. But until that happens, Killing Floor 3 is nothing more than a cautionary tale about how not to follow up a cult hit.
Wheel World is a gorgeous and creative game with a soul, even if that soul is a little lost. It tries to say something big, but the message gets tangled in the spokes. The biking is fun, the customization is deep, and the world is worth exploring. The story? That might depend on how willing you are to suspend your disbelief.
Monument Valley has never been about difficulty. These games are more about presence than challenge, more about feeling than frustration. Monument Valley 3 continues that philosophy while pushing its boundaries outward. It doesn’t reinvent the formula entirely, but it evolves it in quiet, confident ways. As a standalone experience, it offers a deeply satisfying journey filled with moments of awe. As part of the series, it represents a thoughtful growth that respects its past while seeking new shores.
PATAPON 1+2 REPLAY isn’t trying to reinvent the series. It doesn’t need to. These two games stand tall as some of the most original titles ever made for a handheld, and they work just as well now with a controller in hand and the volume up. It’s a love letter to fans and a gateway drug for newcomers. The drums are calling. The tribe is waiting. And the beat goes on.
No Sleep For Kaname Date does not try to be a full sequel, and that works in its favor. It is a focused, gripping side story that builds on everything that made AI: The Somnium Files memorable. Longtime fans will appreciate the returning cast and deeper lore, while newcomers might find it a weird but fascinating entry point. It is not as sprawling or thematically rich as nirvanA Initiative, but it offers a more compact, puzzle-heavy experience that still packs a punch. At its core, this is a game about dreams, delusions, and the connections that transcend reality. It is all wrapped in a murder mystery involving aliens, sentient eyeballs, and idol songs. If that sounds like your kind of strange, don’t sleep on it.
While Warside doesn’t rewrite the rules of turn-based tactics, it does a fantastic job of polishing and modernizing them. The pacing is tight, the strategic depth is strong, and the tools it offers players , from custom maps to faction variety , ensure that it never overstays its welcome. Whether you’re a grizzled tactics veteran or a newcomer curious about the genre, Warside offers a compelling and addicting battlefield to master.
By the end of the adventure, you’ll feel like you’ve made memories, not just completed objectives. With its handcrafted style, joyful mechanics, clever puzzles, and heartfelt characters, Ruffy and the Riverside stands as one of the most charming and memorable platformers in recent memory.
Rematch is a soccer sim with arcade soul, a competitive beast dressed in cleats, and an early access title that could very well score big, if it keeps its foot on the gas and listens to its fans. For now, it’s not quite the beautiful game, but it’s definitely a beautiful start.
RAIDOU Remastered is what a detective noir JRPG should be: strange, stylish, and loaded with secrets. It’s a cult classic polished to a modern shine, one that drags you into its smoky streets and refuses to let go until the last case is closed. Whether you’re a long-time fan or totally new to the Devil Summoner series, this is one case you don’t want to leave unsolved. Step into the fedora, summon a demon or two, and prepare to lose yourself in a murder mystery with a pulse made of thunder and shadows.
Nice Day for Fishing might look like a one-joke game on the surface, but it’s got a whole ocean of heart underneath. It’s a brilliant send-up of RPG conventions, sure, but also a genuinely fun and heartfelt adventure in its own right. So whether you’re here for the jokes, the deep-sea boss battles, or just looking to save the world one cast at a time, this game proves that sometimes the biggest legends don’t wield swords. They carry rods, wear funny hats, and never let a bad cast stop them from trying again.
So where does that leave Scar‑Lead Salvation? It’s a retro-flavored experiment with genuine flashes of fun but drags them down with repetitiveness and narrative fluff. You feel like an old-school shooter in a modern shell—fun when it works, frustrating when it doesn’t. There’s competence and charm here, but not enough depth or polish to sustain it. You’ll enjoy the nostalgia, the immediate gunplay thrills, and the occasional boss crescendo—but you’ll walk away wishing there was more variety, pacing, and story payoff to back it up.
Guardians of Azuma is a solid Rune Factory game that does most things right on a basic level – it’s not broken, it’s cute, and it’s plenty approachable – but it doesn’t stand out in any big way. It’s more like a pleasant afternoon chat with old friends than a fireworks show. So while I’d still recommend it to folks who adore farming sims and want a new cozy world to chill in, I’ll be honest: it’s definitely not the peak of the series for me. The villagers and the concept of dancing to heal the world are fun, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that this installment just played it a bit too safe. If you’re wondering why it’s my least favorite Rune Factory to date, it boils down to that lack of spark and depth compared to earlier entries. It’s a “fine” game with nice moments, but my nostalgia was left wanting a bit more of the old Rune Factory magic.
Projected Dreams is a heartfelt homage to the power of imagination and the bonds that tie us to our past. It’s a gentle reminder of the joy found in simple pleasures, like casting shadows on a wall and weaving stories from the shapes that emerge. Whether you’re seeking a relaxing gaming experience or a trip down memory lane, Projected Dreams offers a cozy escape into a world where shadows tell the most illuminating stories.
Into the Restless Ruins is a smart, atmospheric roguelike that reshapes the deckbuilder formula. Instead of stacking buffs or just fighting monsters, you architect your own dungeon and try to survive it — without a map, in the dark, with time and corruption closing in. Its few rough edges don’t outweigh the satisfaction of outwitting your own creation. With strong replay value, rich lore, and a unique approach to both exploration and combat, this is a standout indie gem for players who enjoy thinking several moves ahead.
The Precinct might not revolutionize the genre, but it’s definitely on the force for good. It channels the spirit of vintage cop dramas and tosses it into an open-world blender with just enough tactical flair to keep things interesting. The result is a game that’s wild, weird, and way more fun than it has any right to be. Whether you’re laying down the law or just enjoying a late-night joyride through the city lights, The Precinct makes the badge feel cool again.
The game constantly teases something grander than it can deliver. Whether it’s the promise of unique storylines for each of the three protagonists or the allure of a deep combat system with collectible weapons and layered progression, Yasha overpromises and underdelivers in almost every category. It’s the kind of experience where you finish the game, sit in silence, and wonder, “Was that it?” To be honest, Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade feels like a game that was rushed out the door long before it was ready. The foundation is there—beautiful visuals, a culturally rich setting, and a cool premise. But the lack of polish, shallow mechanics, and absurdly short playtime make it hard to recommend to anyone but the most diehard fans of Japanese mythology or side-scrolling action games.
City Bus Manager is a surprisingly solid simulation with smart use of real-world data and a love for all things transit. It’s a bit light on content for the price, but if you’re a fan of buses or city management games, this might just be your stop. Just be ready to pay the express fare for a ride that maybe should’ve come with a transfer discount. So go on—hop aboard. It’s not the cheapest ride in town, but it’s still got a lot of mileage.
Captain Blood is a bold, brash hack-and-slash with heart—but it’s more Saturday morning cartoon than high-seas epic. If you’re in the mood for a bite-sized pirate brawl with exaggerated flair and old-school charm, it’s worth boarding. Just don’t expect a deep treasure chest underneath all that glitter.
