A little abstract in nature, but Genesis Noir is an all-around stunning audio-visual adventure.
What makes the previous Shelter games shine is their ability to show nature as both awe-inspiring and completely terrifying, but Shelter 3 fails to capture that. It breaks my heart since you can see the ideas and concepts of a great survival game, but the execution just isn't there.
Narita Boy's digital twist on a classic fantasy tale is engrossing if a bit disorientating.
An excellent co-op adventure that doesn't take itself too seriously, and that's the only place it falls short.
Omori's ending is brutal, but its characters and humour put some heart behind the horror.
Twin Mirror begins with an intriguing set-up but, disappointingly, ends up going nowhere.
Fuser feels like a natural evolution for Harmonix and, scoring system aside, lets players take control of the music more than ever before.
An energy infused concoction of style, action, and music that will give you one heck of a musical hangover.
A thought-provoking and bittersweet adventure that understands that death is part of living.
A calm and realistic marine-diving simulator that unfortunately never goes deeper than the surface.
Minecraft Dungeons is a breezy dungeon crawler that reproduces Minecraft's playful attitude.
A gentle and engrossing underwater sci-fi game that will have you thinking about more than what lies beneath the waves.
A vibrant mystery adventure but maybe not for you if you're picky about picross.
The Suicide of Rachel Foster builds a haunting hotel, but fills it with an insensitive story ill-equipped to deal with the issues it covers.
Wattam is a fun colourful playground for players to goof around in, even though it's controls have a few screws loose.
A fun blend of puzzle and roguelike that inspires forward-thinking, but cuts your strategy short.
A serene gravity flipping puzzler with impossible structures to wrap your head around.
Although its light tutorial and lack of feedback throw it off balance, Rise of Industry's in-depth production tools and supply chain mechanics - not to mention waffle options - will meet the demands of any production sim fan.
My Time at Portia is a gorgeous game with solid crafting mechanics and a mysterious post-apocalyptic tale, but its intriguing story is buried beneath slow pacing and flimsy characters.
From what I understand, it’s been a difficult journey for Dopterra, starting from their Kickstarter campaign, beginning in 2014 to being released on Halloween 2016, but you can see the love and passion the developers have put into Creepy Castle. It has a compelling story, charm and humor with a sinister undertone, throw back aesthetics, a memorable soundtrack (composed by Marius Schneider), and a fun and unique battle system.
