Luma Island is a well designed simulation game filled with a variety of activities and puzzles, though the frequency and similarity of the puzzles can make the main story feel stagnant.
A perfectly competent FPS core that sees itself sabotaged by so many different directions for where the game thinks it should go with its outrageously addicting gameplay loop.
Lego Horizon Adventures is at its core a Lego game, but one that branches out from its usual IP stylings to add humor and a bunch of fun gadgets to the Horizon world - all while reigning it into a more condensed experience.
Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is a piece of eye candy that falls a bit flat on all other aspects.
There's a decent, tactical experience in Metal Slug Tactics, but the roguelite elements and repetition that stems from that make things feel old too quickly. Messy, confusing UI and infrequent bugs also hinder this title from reaching its true potential.
A mind-numbing tour through one of horror’s more recent hit IPs, which doesn’t provide justification for its stay, or the scares to match.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard delivers an incredible experience built on fluid combat, deep lore and characters, and player choice. All of this is wrapped up in a polished package that is a must play for Dragon Age fans and RPG fans alike.
Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered doesn't reinvent the wheel, but it offers a new glimpse at a fascinating relic of the seventh console generation.
The Jackbox Survey Scramble manages to take an entirely different approach to Jackbox silliness and create minigames where my biggest complaint is that they're too short. There are other minigames with larger complaints, but I just plan not to play them...
A rugged platformer, but a dire Metroidvania, struggling to truly feel like a part of its namesakes legacy.
Amanda the Adventurer 2 is a great horror puzzle game to continue the series. Dripping with atmosphere if a little light on actual scares.
Super Mario Party Jamboree delivers a great Mario Party experience filled with nostalgia and quality of life improvements. Additional Planner and Koopathlon game modes offer a good reason to play the game solo.
Killing Time: Resurrected is a charming shooter that stands out for its vast map, mysterious mansion, and FMV cutscenes. Though weapon variety is middling, it's a fantastic experience through and through and greatly benefits from Nightdive Studios' enhancements.
Retrorealms: Halloween proudly wears the trappings of its source material, but stumbles in spots as a fully satisfying retro platformer.
Retrorealms: Ash vs. Evil Dead is a stylish, bloody, fun arcade throwback. It may also be too brief given its pricetag. Worth a look for horror uberfans.
Unknown 9: Awakening is full of originality, but suffers from some frustrating gameplay decisions despite the interesting mystery of its narrative.
A trailblazing improvement on one of rhythm-action’s shining examples, and one that actively learns on how to expand from its predecessors.
Neva is a visually brilliant, emotionally rich experience that celebrates life, nature, and the strong bonds of parenthood. A wonderful one-of-a-kind experience.
The Axis Unseen is an expertly crafted indie title that combines metal music, horror, and hunting to create a rocking new experience.
Europa is a relaxing, emotional journey through a snippet of human life on a terraformed moon. With easy to pick up mechanics and a short playtime, this is a must have for those looking to complete a game quickly.
