Despite only consisting of seven levels and relying on players replaying them multiple times, I never got bored with Bleed.
Mages of Mystralia's combat and puzzles are enjoyable and the unique spell crafting system allows for a nearly endless amount of customization.
Visually, Resident Evil: Revelations is a bit rough around the edges but that doesn't hold it back from being an intense and enjoyable action-based entry in the series, either by playing solo or teaming up with a friend in Raid Mode.
Songbringer's core gameplay is enjoyable and the variety of weapons and items means that you're always unlocking something fresh and getting to experiment with new things.
Time Recoil plays like a toned-down Hotline Miami that strips away the stealth focus and ramps up the twin-stick shooting.
Ink is a pleasant albeit brief experience that 2D platforming fans should thoroughly enjoy.
Robonauts' gunplay mechanics are pretty by the book but it's bolstered by colorful visuals and planet-hopping exploration.
Splasher is an exciting, colorful, and challenging game that platforming aficionados need to check out.
After my first couple hours with Pankapu, I expected to sail through the rest of the campaign and move on from this gorgeous action platformer.
Mecho Tales' world really looks remarkable so it's a shame that the rest of the game is so woefully average.
I could go on and on about SteamWorld Dig 2's strengths.

Jydge is another entry in 10tons line of competent twin-stick shooters.
The Evil Within 2 is a tense and challenging game that still manages to remain accessible.
Star Wars Battlefront II is an enjoyable but flawed title.
Max: The Curse of Brotherhood is a colorful and excellently animated puzzle-platformer.
A Hat in Time is a charming adventure with four wonderfully crafted and unique worlds.
Okami is a massive and remarkable game and is on the short list of my favorite games of all time.
Due to the busy art style and slippery controls, it took a little while for Xenon Valkyrie+ to get its hooks in me but as I improved, everything started to open up and I had an extremely enjoyable time battling enemies and searching for its rewarding secrets.
Iconoclasts is an action-packed and gorgeous game that offers some great puzzles and exciting boss fights.
