Love, Ghostie is an adorable little matchmaking game filled with wholesome humour and amusing roommate shenanigans. Filled with fun mini-games and interesting characters, you'll easily spend hours invested in shipping each one.
Midnight Ramen is a cosy time with flavourful depths hidden within. With an emotional story and wonderful world-building, it's hard not to come back for seconds.
Magical Delicacy is a cooking metroidvania which you can easily lose yourself in. Like any good fantasy, it encourages exploration and it doesn't punish you for your mistakes. With an intriguing story, you can really put yourself in Flora's shoes as you learn about the Kingdom of Grat with her.
With My Past is an interesting puzzle platformer that tackles heavy themes. It is a beautiful game that poses a unique challenge to players, but one that you should play with care.
While QUALIA ~Path of Promise~ has a strong premise, I feel like it didn't hit the mark in terms of what it could do as a story. While some fans may enjoy it, if you're looking for an immersive visual novel, this probably won't be for you.
Death Trick: Double Blind is a point-and-click story full of twists, turns, and compelling characters. I came for the circus, but I stayed for the references to Ace Attorney and Sherlock Holmes.
Shanghai Summer has an enjoyable story that kept me intrigued and will be a sure hit for fans of Erased or Your Name. However, there are some minor issues that may detract some players, such as grammar and some minor graphical issues.
Lil' Guardsman is a cute yet hilarious point-and-click adventure with a surprisingly deep story. No level is the same, and it has a lot of heart, making it perfect for anyone wanting to have a laugh.
Crystal Story: Dawn of Dusk is an interesting game, but there are little things that may frustrate players. As the first of an episodic series, it feels a little bit expensive, especially for the number of hours you get out of it.
While it can be jarring jumping from 2D animation into 3D, all three games tie into each other pretty well and offer a fun experience for both old and new fans.
Invincible Presents: Atom Eve is a short and sweet game that may get repetitive, but is overall a fun one for newcomers and fans of Invincible. If you have a few hours, I recommend giving it a go.
Despite some minor issues and some disorienting audio, I appreciated the metanarrative and surrealism of [I] doesn't exist. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys story-rich games.
I can barely find the words to describe the emotional experience that is Goodbye Volcano High. While there are a few sound blips, the music, voice acting, and story were phenomenal, and these teenage dinosaurs were truly relatable.
Patrick's Parabox is a fun puzzler for all ages, whether you like puzzles or not. It's easy to play, and I found myself becoming easily addicted to solving each puzzle, losing hours of time into this fun little game.
Overall, the gameplay mechanics of SOULVARS were enjoyable, but the story is repetitive and the characters and story felt lacking. If you enjoy deck-builders, this should be up your alley, but if you're here for the narrative I would look elsewhere.
Overall, Final Fantasy XVI is a phenomenal gaming experience that I enjoyed from start to finish. With dynamic gameplay, amazing characters, and an emotional storyline, new and old fans alike will love the latest entry in the franchise.
Fall of Porcupine has a hard-hitting story beneath its wholesome veneer, with fun mini-games and memorable characters that are as cute as they are well-written.
Grief Trigger has an interesting premise, but despite the personal story, there is very little substance.
Saint Maker is certainly more tragedy than horror, and it shows. While it is well-made, I think players will enjoy the story more than the actual gameplay.
There's no doubt that Three Hopes offers a story that stands out from its predecessor. While it doesn't have quite the emotional impact, it still offers plenty of a wild ride of twists and turns.
