The RTS layer is limited and repetitive, but the platforming levels are well-designed and challenging.
Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth feels like the first half of a fun, if simple, metroidvania.
With a local co-op buddy Aegis Defenders becomes a fun mix of genres, but when playing solo it canbe an exercise in frustration.
Battle Chasers: Nightwar is a gorgeous, challenging RPG that's light on story but big on tactically satisfying battles.
Hand of Fate 2 is a satisfying sequel and a meatier dungeon crawler, but still somewhat hampered by limited combat.
Highly recommended for fans of classic Point and Click Adventures.
The puzzles hit that perfect blend of complexity and intuitiveness that keep them immensely satisfying.
Stellaris captures the craziness and fun of sci-fi in an engaging, infinitely replayable strategy game.
I can't recommend Heroes of the Storm's friendly approach enough.
