Shadow Labyrinth is one of the weirdest and most unexpected games that I've ever played. Despite everything, the formula just works and the sense of satisfaction from completing its brutally tough segments and exploring its variety-filled world is superb. 🟡
Donkey Kong Bananza is one of the most unique and immensely enjoyable games that I've ever played. Plus, behind its chaotic open-ended gameplay and incredibly imaginative worlds, you'll find a lot of heart. 🍌
With its clever scenarios and sense of randomness, Ready or Not offers an exciting team-based tactical shooting formula that's great fun. 🔫
If it featured more visceral and tight combat, Somber Echoes would be an excellent Metroidvania with its awesome game world to explore. 🛡️
It may be one of the most brutally frustrating platformers out there but Through the Nightmares manages to provide satisfying gameplay. 🛌
With a campaign that gets boring fast and gameplay that manages to be as tedious as it is frantic, it's hard to recommend this Cook Off. 🥞
If you're looking for a chill indie game to enjoy at your leisure then diving deep through Everdeep Aurora will certainly make you smile. 🐱
I love when games provide freedom while also ensuring that each step of progress is satisfying and Locomoto does just that in all its cuteness. 🚂
Simply using bombs in a shoot 'em up is a novel and somewhat fun premise but Blast Rush LS doesn't do a heck of a lot with this formula. 💣
With its steep difficulty curve and imbalanced co-op, Flora & Fang is a bit rough despite having a solid foundation and great visuals. 🧛
Missile Command Delta definitely isn't what I expected it would be but that's great because it really launched a missile straight to my heart. 🚀
It may be very different but Wizard of Legend 2's lovely 3D visuals and slick action-packed co-op gameplay will definitely cast a spell on you. 🧙
Not only does Spiritfall look sharp and stylish, its gameplay is, too, thanks to its oodles of clever skills, upgrades, and unique challenges. 🔥
Soulstone Survivors is one of my favourite games in this newly emerging genre so if you enjoy these kinds of games, absolutely check it out. 💎
I had a lovely time with Exo-Calibre and its adorable game world that houses some truly unique and satisfying shoot 'em up gameplay. 💥
Irem Collection Volume 3 is definitely the most difficult compilation in the series so far which will delight hardcore retro gaming enthusiasts. 🚁
The original is one of my favourite SRPGs of all time and FRONT MISSION 3: Remake does a decent job of modernising the gameplay. However, its downgraded visual assets often make its aesthetics feel cheap. 🦾
With its energetically vibrant world that'll keep you smiling and clever puzzle-filled platforming, Ruffy And The Riverside has everything you'd need for an excellent 3D funfest. 🐻
I can't believe that a retro-inspired RPG with such a heavy emphasis on fishing could be this fun but Nice Day for Fishing is great stuff indeed. 🎣
As the latest console release of my favourite tower defense series, Kingdom Rush Vengeance excels at providing strategic action and hilarity. 👺
