The art design and style are top notch, so it's a shame the rest of the content can't live up to them. Cartoonish Schim is by no means a bad game, but its gameplay and offerings do not support the genius concept.

Indika tells an arresting story about humanity and the influence of religion on a sensitive individual. Nothing in life is black and white, and fortunately many things have changed in the world of the 21st century. Still, several of the game's themes are still relevant. It's a shame that a few sections break the arc of the otherwise intact story and take away the best edge from the thought-provoking title.

In the era of difficult and challenging games, it's sometimes great to experience something serenely beautiful as a counterbalance. Botany Manor grows flowers with a puzzle-like approach, and it does not offer anything very surprising, but it does everything it promises with admirable professionalism.

Previously released on Steam Early Access, The Outlast Trials offers exactly what you can expect from the series. Sick, agonizing horror. This time the story has been left behind, but the gameplay and atmosphere make up for the lack of a script. With a group of friends, The Outlast Trials is guaranteed entertainment for a few weeks - and it also works alone, as long as you set yourself up correctly.

Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley respects the source material wonderfully, but as a video game it has to remember the limits set by the age limit. Now the end result offers admirable things to do with both in mind, but I would still really like a versatile adventure designed for an older target audience, where the game mechanics and puzzles would not have been chewed open already.

Despite the long development work, the studio should have trimmed the length of the story a bit and invested in polishing. If everything isn't right under the hood, it doesn't matter how great the story, style or game design is. Airhead entertains, but also frustrates at the same time - and that's never a good thing.

Pacific Drive is a convincing debut release if you are not afraid of high difficulty and numbing resource collection. Personally, I would have appreciated the end result much more as a story-driven adventure, and not as a full-blooded survival game. Too often accidents in the dark hours of the night or encounters with hostile opposition eat away at the joy of playing.
