Fellowship is in early access and its still incomplete and imperfect, although the developers have added a lot of quality of life and made good changes. Despite the problems with balance, maps, resource management and pathing, Fellowship is still an interesting challenge and can become a fun and satisfying as well as a challenging title.
Par for the Dungeon does not hide its mobile nature, even if it avoids bringing with it the worst sides of this type of game. If Sleeping Giant maintains this line, without adding microtransactions that affect the gameplay, its hybrid nature can make it a puzzle game that still manages to amuse and entertain.
BOTI: Byteland Overclocked is a light hearted 3D platformer and should be taken that way. The game delivers what it promises, giving the player several hours of fun and exploration. Of course, there is no shortage of flaws. Small flaws in the physics engine and some inaccuracies in the management of certain skills can sometimes compromise the most complicated actions. Its strong point is the style and design of the characters and levels. If you are looking for a 3D platformer with a nice look, not challenging but well made, BOTI: Byteland Overclocked is the one for you.
Dros is a really good title, which intelligently quotes the great classics of the great N. Its excellent graphic style and its narrative are combined with an articulated and stimulating level design. A layered game that can be both lightly approached and delved into completing all of its side objectives. It is not free from defects, the weak action part and the bugs, even if they can be fixed with a patch, currently compromise the good design work done by the developers. The fact remains that we are really dealing with a little gem that I recommend trying. You will not regret it
Dredge is a solo fishing adventure with strong gameplay design and great sense of discovery. Even if it has some technical flaws, a certain basic repetitiveness and some narrative gaps, its granite design and horror atmosphere make this game a little gem to discover.
Fall of Porcupine is a bittersweet adventure that focuses on dialogue and a strong mature narrative. Critical Rabbit will accompany us to discover this world, but be careful. Appearances can often be deceiving.
Edited by Wired Productions and developed by Rogue Sun, Tin Hearts is not only a 3D puzzle game which will put your skills to the test. It’s also a bittersweet story about a family, tragic events, denial and redemption. All of this is told during the 51 levels and a moving epilogue.
Age of Darkness: final stand is surely a good surprise and a real deal, especially for old school RTS lovers. Campaign mode is very promising and got on the right way.
Toasterball is an extremely unique and bizarre game. And I believe it goes without saying that it earns a lot when played in groups. Despite making good use of the toasters’ physics and the ability to perform “stunts” with the appliances, the gameplay becomes extremely chaotic. Toasterball is one of those games where the merits can transform into flaws depending on the player’s sensitivity.
Lumencraft is a top-down, roguelike shooter and base building with tower defense elements. Alone in dark halls, we have to find the precious Lumen, humanity’s last chance for survival.
Hi-Fi Rush is an original combination of a good action combat system and rhythm game mechanics with excellent cartoonish graphic, sound and music design.
Kainga: Seeds of Civilization is a little gem in the indie world: a solid and layered Village Builder with strong Roguelite elements and very good core ideas.
Dotemu brings a lovely tribute to Konami’s popular arcades with this new game that includes almost the entire universe of the TMNT: main and side characters, locations and all the details are very accurate
