Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy successfully evolves the series into a more action-oriented adventure without losing its emotional core. Sofia is a compelling protagonist, the presentation is gorgeous, and the mix of exploration, puzzles, stealth, and combat works very well, even if some puzzles become repetitive and a few technical issues occasionally break the immersion.

Twisted Tower is a fast, bloody and visually distinctive FPS that turns a warped 1950s amusement park into a surprisingly atmospheric shooting gallery. Creative weapons, bizarre enemies, satisfying gunplay and stronger-than-expected lore make the seven-to-eight-hour ride highly entertaining, although repetitive encounters, underused movement abilities and almost nonexistent puzzles prevent it from fully capitalizing on its twisted premise.

STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT is a thoughtful and beautifully presented modernization of one of visual novels’ greatest stories, with gorgeous redrawn artwork, excellent re-recorded voice acting, a refreshed soundtrack, and worthwhile new content such as the Gamma route. Its outdated phone system, occasional overlong scientific exposition, reliance on the Elite scenario structure, and high price hold it back slightly, but for newcomers it is arguably the most accessible way to experience this unforgettable sci-fi story.

The Sinking City 2 is a confident modern survival horror that pairs a beautifully realized, rain-soaked Arkham with excellent atmosphere, responsive gunplay, accessible puzzles, and a surprisingly polished technical state. Enemy variety is limited and some encounters become frustratingly chaotic, especially without proper melee weapons, but Frogwares’ tighter and more focused approach makes this one of the studio’s strongest games to date.

Kill the Shadow is a distinctive narrative adventure with a branching, well-written story, memorable characters, rich lore, and a fantastic 2.5D presentation heavily inspired by Hong Kong cinema. Its clunky interface, uneven translation, and exposition-heavy opening can make the experience feel chaotic, but its atmosphere, absurd humor, meaningful choices, and strong emotional core make it an easy recommendation for fans of unusual story-driven games.

Machine Party is a hilariously brutal multiplayer party game that combines fifteen creative minigames with sabotage, black humor, a distinctive industrial style, and excellent four-player chaos. Its biggest weakness is limited replayability, as the fixed order of minigames and lack of variation become noticeable after only a few sessions, but as an occasional party game with friends it is easy to recommend.

Granblue Fantasy: Relink is a fast-paced and highly enjoyable action JRPG built around an excellent combat system, a likeable cast, spectacular boss fights, and gorgeous audiovisual presentation. Its story moves a little too quickly and some side content leans heavily on grinding, while Endless Ragnarok focuses more on expanding the endgame than delivering another major narrative campaign, but together they offer a substantial and rewarding package for both newcomers and long-term players.

Lost and Found is a charming, intimate return to Sophie, offering a warm standalone story, likeable characters, and a noticeable visual upgrade. Its simpler mystery and slightly repetitive gameplay keep it from matching the original’s complexity, but it remains an easy recommendation for fans.

The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu has an appealing premise, strong visuals, and some initially entertaining hallucination mechanics, but its ideas quickly become repetitive. Weak combat, technical problems, frustrating exploration, and underused Lovecraftian themes leave the experience feeling noticeably underdeveloped.

Echoes of Aincrad offers an enjoyable action combat system, satisfying cooperation with companions, epic multi-phase boss fights, and a beautiful world. Unfortunately, repetitive enemies and quests, empty locations, uneven responsiveness, and a gradually stagnating story make the roughly fifty-hour adventure feel underdeveloped, especially at its premium price.

The Silver Crow begins with a strong historical mystery, a likeable protagonist, attractive character designs, and an excellent soundtrack, but its potential is quickly wasted by a shallow and predictable story, overly simple puzzles, and an abrupt ending. At barely a few hours long, it ultimately feels more like an unfinished concept than a fully developed adventure.

Moonlight Peaks is a charming and addictive farming simulator that successfully blends cozy gameplay with a delightful supernatural setting, memorable characters, enjoyable side activities, and a genuinely useful magic system. Its slow and somewhat confusing opening, longer loading times, and a few minor design frustrations hold it back slightly, but the game remains an easy recommendation for fans of spooky and relaxing life sims.

Moss: The Forgotten Relic successfully adapts its charming fairy-tale adventure beyond virtual reality, supported by a lovable heroine, enjoyable environmental puzzles, beautiful locations, and a wonderful soundtrack. Some mechanics lose impact without VR, while repetition and camera issues occasionally frustrate, but it remains a delightful and worthwhile family-friendly experience.

Shift at Midnight is a creative and tightly paced co-op horror experience that combines Papers, Please-style identity checks with absurd humor, clever doppelganger encounters, and a surprisingly engaging story campaign. Its chaotic combat, weaker endless mode, and brief runtime hold it back slightly, but the game remains an inventive and highly entertaining horror comedy best enjoyed with friends.

Rhythm Paradise Groove is a joyful and wonderfully creative return for the cult rhythm series, packed with imaginative minigames, excellent music, charming visuals, tougher remixed challenges, and a fun local multiplayer mode. A handful of minigames may not click with everyone, but the overwhelming majority are addictive, rewarding, and an absolute delight to master.

Scarlet Deer Inn is a visually enchanting horror fairy tale, elevated by its embroidered characters, hand-painted backgrounds, Slavic folklore, memorable heroine, and beautiful folk soundtrack. Its repetitive underground sections, frustrating chase sequences, underused titular inn, and high price for a roughly three-hour experience keep it from fully living up to its promise.

Thick as Thieves has the foundations of a strong cooperative stealth game, with clever use of light and sound, flexible infiltration routes, enjoyable gadgets, and an atmospheric Dishonored-like world. Unfortunately, just two main locations, repetitive contracts, limited tools, and frustrating time limits make it feel more like the remains of a much more ambitious project than a fully realized adventure.

Jul 15, 2026

Star Fox remains a fast, addictive, and wonderfully replayable arcade shooter, now enhanced by charming cinematic cutscenes, excellent orchestral music, and a remarkably polished 60 FPS presentation on Switch 2. The lack of meaningful changes to the campaign makes this feel overly familiar for longtime fans, but for newcomers, it is easily the best way to discover the series.

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is a beautiful and worthy remake that turns the Caribbean into a breathtaking, living pirate playground, while improved naval combat, new story additions, and smart quality-of-life changes make it the best version of Black Flag yet. Its uneven story still deserved more care, and the revamped combat can get chaotic in larger fights, but this remains the ultimate pirate adventure for both returning fans and newcomers.

Crushed In Time is an original and delightfully absurd adventure that keeps its elastic puzzle concept fresh across the whole runtime, thanks to clever ideas, charming characters, strong voice acting, and a playful sense of humor. A few confusing puzzle moments and less comfortable gamepad controls hold it back slightly, but the creativity behind it easily stretches past those flaws.
