Demonheart: The Ice Demon serves as an excellent romantic fantasy VN stepping stone into the Demonheart series.
Garden of Seif: Curse of Gravehollow Peaks is a solid-albeit-short fantasy visual novel side story.
Please Be Happy wears its heart on its sleeve, making for a truly moving VN experience.
Fallen Legion: Rise to Glory / Fallen Legion Revenants is the definitive collection of two vexing-yet-solid action RPGs.

Pirated Code: Admin Edition is yet another solid title in both the Switch’s and Steam’s impressive visual novel lineups, and I’m glad that it’ll be coming to Xbox and PlayStation platforms, too, so that more people hopefully get the chance to try it out. It is a charming, touching sci-fi story with surprising depth and unlockable content, even with its shorter length. You might end up playing it in its entirety in a single day, but it will be an enjoyable day if the story resonates with you!
Chronicles of Tal'Dun: The Remainder is a hauntingly powerful visual novel experience.
Titan Station is a brief yet enjoyable immersive sci-fi graphic adventure.
Overall, despite some questionable design elements, Batora: Lost Haven is a solid action RPG once given time to properly gel.
Despite its flaws, even if TEMPEST is an enjoyable otome VN experience.
WILL: A Wonderful World is a thought-provoking and creative VN for those who can appreciate it.
Broken Pieces is a nostalgic mystery adventure that feels like it might be missing one or two components still.
Aquadine is a thoughtfully soft kinetic visual novel about carrying on and living life true to yourself.
Blood Nova is a great science fiction point-and-click adventure, even for players new to the genre.
Voice of Cards: The Beasts of Burden is a well-polished traditional JRPG experience with a creatively unique presentation and a thoughtful narrative.
Wayward Strand is a thoughtful and compelling game with a unique setting.
Inscryption appears to be a very niche roguelite deck-building card game. But it turns into so much more. It’s a must play for anyone who is a fan of experimental videogame storytelling. Anyone remotely curious, who enjoys a great mystery, should also play without hesitation. This is the highest review score I’ve given in a while, and I wasn’t drawn to the base gameplay at all. Inscryption is a special game, and a wholly unique experience. It’s going to be remembered as a benchmark of videogame storytelling years from now. I could not be more shocked or impressed.
Dusk Diver 2 is a solid, enjoyable ARPG experience.
Far Away From Home is a fun and engaging SRPG experience.
Vanaris Tactics is an all-around solid SRPG experience for those wanting a shorter game that provides a compelling plot.
