A fun, but frustrating, bullet hell shooter with some of the best damn pixel graphics and chiptune sounds out there.
Code Vein provides a very casual Souls-like experience which will be perfect for the right sort of person. Minor bugs, and clunky JRPG-style exposition aside the game is a breeze to play through.
Murder Mystery Machine is an enjoyable crime-solving adventure with a decent story hook. Just watch out for strange controls and weird noises.
Too Many Santas is an incredibly basic dating sim. Some comedy and high levels of customization save this short but entertaining experience.
Rune Factory 5 does a few things differently that'll interest long-time fans of the series. The jank and slight annoyances with farming will turn most newcomers away though.
Expedition Zero doesn't quite pull of a homerun, but it's a solid experience. If only it wasn't let down by bugs and a lack of polish.
While The Wheel of Time is certainly showing its age, there's still fun to be had. Just don't try to play it in anything beyond standard resolution.
Choo-Choo Charles will offer temporary thrills to meme-lovers or horror-fans, but doesn't do anything particularly groundbreaking.
Perish doesn't do much to separate itself from the crowd of 4-player co-op FPS titles, but it does offer a great take on the genre for fans. Just don't go into this one expecting to have a good time on your own.
Pharaoh: A New Era has a lot going for it, and if you can get past the generic graphics and occasional bugs, you'll find a deep city-building experience in here.
Telling Lies has an interesting story but is let down by a lack of direction and a clunky UI design. Even interesting characters can save the game, and a watered-down epilogue which is supposed to entice repeated playthroughs just leaves a sour taste in the mouth.
While it hasn't aged gracefully, Ghostbusters; The Video Game Remastered is still a fun time. Crappy AI aside, the combat, puzzles and collectables make it worth playing.
Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot suffers from formulaic gameplay, but its world slightly redeems the experience if you're up for exploring.
While Disaster Report 4 is a very stiff and jerky game, it is at least entertaining. Just don't try to play it twice.
Super Bomberman R Online is a pretty classic Bomberman experience, despite missing some power-ups. Just make sure you enjoy battle royale mode or you're going to have a bad time.
Strong gameplay and atmosphere don't make up for obvious plot twists. However, Amnesia: Rebirth is still worth playing for the things it does right.
Ray's The Dead is entirely unique, and features a visual style I will still be talking about in years to come. That doesn't mean that the game isn't deeply flawed.
Xuan-Yuan Sword VII suffers from a weak story, and a poor translation. Despite this, there is a lot to love for ARPG enthusiasts.
Olija might not be long and might not have the most interesting combat, but the story and style of the game make it worth playing.
Skate City is a chilled-out but ultimately shallow experience. Don't go in expecting anything too involving and you should have fun.
