Silent Hill: Townfall delivers a beautifully atmospheric psychological horror experience filled with intriguing puzzles, disturbing enemies, excellent sound design, and a wonderfully crafted world. St. Amelia is easily one of the game's strongest elements, while its story rewards players who enjoy piecing together mysteries and uncovering hidden details. However, despite its strengths, Townfall struggles to capture the deeper psychological identity that made the original Silent Hill games so memorable.

7.5 / 10.0 - Bubsy 4D
May 21, 2026

Bubsy 4D feels like a chaotic love letter to old-school platformers, blending exaggerated humour, nostalgic PS1/PS2-style visuals, and constantly shifting mechanics into something deliberately messy yet strangely cohesive. It may not always be polished, but its charm and playful energy make it a memorable, endearing return for a franchise that thrives on controlled chaos and silly jokes.

9 / 10.0 - Luna Abyss
May 20, 2026

Luna Abyss blends fast, chaotic combat with heavy platforming and evolving traversal abilities, while the game pushes you deeper into a biomechanical world filled with secrets. Beyond its intense gameplay, it stands out for its philosophical undertones about suffering and meaning, its BLAME-inspired visual design, strong voice acting, and a story that slowly transforms from a prison mission into something far more existential and disturbing.
