Piczle Colors expands on the classic Picross formula in clever ways to create its own concoction of highly enjoyable picture-based puzzles.
Piczle Lines DX is rewarding, charming, and a great game to wind down with if you want your brain to settle or you can't sleep.
As an extension of an already great puzzler, Piczle Lines DX 500 More Puzzles! offers more puzzle fun and it has a cool bonus, too.
Although it contains plenty of content to master, Swapperoo's simple gameplay doesn't deviate much from the match 3 formula.
Quell Zen is not only a chill experience, it's also jam-packed with rewarding practical puzzles and plenty of replay value.
It's puzzling why the puzzler Puzzled was ported to modern consoles considering it's such an irritating and hollow experience.
Its premise is incredibly promising yet Kandagawa Jet Girls does nothing but disappoint with its monotonously slow racing that feels like it's aimed towards small children but should kids really play a game with excessive thong shots and bouncing boobs? Probably not.
If you already own Remnant: From the Ashes then getting this DLC is a must because the adventure within truly feels like its own distinct experience. Overall, this is one impressive chunk of content.
The humour in Helheim Hassle is spot-on for a laugh-out-loud adventure and it provides many impressively rewarding puzzles as well.
Darkestville Castle is a standard point and click adventure that genre fans who are thirsty for more may enjoy but it's nothing special.
Even with its clever premise, Peaky Blinders: Mastermind's campaign doesn't feel all that consequential yet it remains somewhat enjoyable.
If The Ambassador: Fractured Timelines featured more gameplay variety besides its basic gimmick then it would've been much more fun.
Bite the Bullet is a solid action game but not everyone will enjoy watching their character eat and barf their way through the journey.
It may be a cute and fun game featuring great music but Neko Navy - Daydream Edition doesn't quite break out of the genre mold.
The shooting action in Zero Strain is frantic, fun, and challenging and its campaign setup will keep you hooked until you master it.
Its mobile roots definitely show but The Alto Collection offers some enjoyable albeit simplistic gameplay with eye-popping visuals.
Even though Liege Dragon isn't the best old-school RPG to be released in recent years, it still has its charms. The simplicity of it all can actually be kind of refreshing but it also makes tedium sink in much sooner than you'd hope.
Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time definitely doesn't offer anything particularly groundbreaking but it does feature satisfying old-school hack and slash fun that's hard not to enjoy. Throw in some RPG elements and you're left with a solid albeit lackluster experience.
Captain Tsubasa: Rise of New Champions may seem like a niche title but it's sure to appeal to anyone who enjoys arcade sports games, especially ones with a steep degree of difficulty. Its flashy, challenging, and intense matches truly hit a home run. Oops, wrong sport.
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition is the sort of game that you play to wind down with after a long day. It's not very demanding or challenging yet the adventures within remain memorable, charming, and ultimately rewarding.
