Chained Echoes is without a doubt the best RPG I've played all year, and should be pushed to the top of your backlog immediately.
Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII- Reunion is an entertaining spinoff with action packed combat, but at this point it's showing its age a little.
Once upon a Jester is absolutely delightful from start to finish, packed with utterly charming characters and fabulous musical numbers.
Goodbye World tells an interesting story about game development, but the slow pacing and gameplay issues really let it down.
Ship of Fools is a truly exciting co-op roguelike, with frantic action. plenty of upgrades to enjoy and a banging soundtrack

Tactics Ogre Reborn is a fantastic look at the history of tactics games, and is still a blast even now.
Sonic Frontiers has its fair share of issues, but the open world direction and varied gameplay makes it the most exciting Sonic game in decades.
Ghost Song is a fantastic game that blends Metroid and Dark Souls to create an experience that's tense, touching and tough to put down.
Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed has some great ideas for the asymmetric multiplayer genre, but the sides aren't equally fun to play.
Triangle Strategy is a quintessential tactics game, and now that it's on PC even more of you lucky lot will get to play it.
Hell is Others is a brutal nightmare of a multiplayer game that will appeal massively to patient players who are willing to make the time investment.
Oddworld: Soulstorm is probably the best Oddworld game, and the Switch port doesn't disappoint.
One Many Nobody is a fun enough puzzle platformer, but one that never really manages to break through to greatness.
Persona 5 Royal is quite frankly one of the best RPGs ever made, and now that it can be played portably you have no more excuses.
Fueled Up is a fun co-op game to play with friends, but the artificial lengthening and confusing levels really make it hard to recommend over its peers.
Valkyrie Elysium is an enjoyable action RPG packed full of combos and upgrades, but the boring levels and story detract from the fun.
Kamiwaze: Way of the Thief is a very silly stealth game that makes sneaking fun as long as you can tolerate the graphics.
With clunky combat and poorly explained mechanics, Lovecraft's Untold Stories 2 fails to hit the mark in any meaningful way.
It's not for the faint of heart, but if you're a veteran of deck building you'll find a lot to love in Vault of the Void.
