Filled with secrets and creativity, Super Meat Boy 3D is ultimately betrayed by slippery controls that cause a much less fun frustration than its predecessor.
Legacy of Kain: Ascendance has its (black) heart in the right place, but that can't save it from repetitive and frustrating platforming and a questionable narrative.
Reaching scores in the quadrillions by creating insane combos with various coins, gadgets, and more makes RACCOIN: Coin Pusher Roguelike an addicting experience. With plenty of unlocks and additional difficulties, this is one roguelite that will have your attention for a good long while.
Marathon is a great-looking and extremely rewarding competitive extraction shooter let down by an inadequate prologue and poor monetization.
Screamer is a pure shot of adrenaline. Learning the game's intricacies rewards players with an exhilarating, aggressive, and action-packed experience. With its engrossing storyline and anime aesthetic, Screamer is sure to captivate players.
If you want to shoot a bunch of bugs, cause a ton of explosions, and watch some genuinely funny cutscenes all through the lens of an in-universe highly propagandized video game, Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War! might just be for you. While it has its flaws (namely, squad gameplay, objective variety, and the Bug mode), it's entertaining to say the least.
Pokopia offers something for all Pokemon fans whether you're the type to just want to go on an adventure with Pokemon (as Pokemon?) or create a whole new world with Pokemon. While the end-game grind was dull, overall this is a fantastic package.
It shoots loud, and it feels heavy, but not one element of Toxic Commando can agree on which should be the core focus, leaving a messy, tangled web of underdeveloped mechanics for the player to figure out.
Monster Hunter Stories 3 delivers on every level, creating a thrilling story with beautiful visuals and satisfying and fun gameplay.
Poker Night at the Inventory offers up a few laughs and a chance to reunite with some old friends over some poker. At times, it certainly shows its age (especially when it comes to its four main stars), but if you're looking to take a trip down memory lane, it's still worth checking out.
Planet of Lana 2 hits many of the same highs and many of the same lows as the original Planet of Lana does.
An astonishingly ineffective attempt to remind people of Legacy of Kain's fame, doing nothing beneficial to freshen up an already rough product.
Tales of Berseria Remastered marks the re-release of one of the best entries in the series. The remaster itself is fairly solid, although some minor texture and lighting issues persist throughout.
Resident Evil Requiem does a good job creating a classic Resident Evil experience, while also giving the characters and story room to breathe through swapping protagonists. Fun (and scary) from the first moment you're jumpscared!
Reigns: The Witcher is a simple game at its core, but it delivers a fresh, hilarious, sometimes tedious experience for Witcher fans.
Two separate cores of equally engaging but shallow gameplay, and a fascinating but frugal narrative, competing to see which wears the player down first.
Code Vein 2's versatile combat and build variety hold a lot of promise, and when you've settled on a good kit of weapons, it's quite enjoyable. Despite this, it's bogged down by infuriating boss mechanics, low poise, and unfulfilled potential both in its story and its open world.
Crisol: Theater of Idols is indebted to its horror-shooter forebears, but it can't match their coherence and tension, even at its best moments.
Relooted is a wonderful action heist adventure that provides a deep and poignant history lesson into the brutish acts of colonialism on the African continent and the plundering of cultural and religious property as spoils of war. Possessing great art direction, puzzle and level design, and cultural representation, the game suffers from a variety of glitches, disconnected voice direction, and frustrating wall-jumping mechanics that made it too hard to brush aside.
High on Life 2's serviceable gameplay and mostly decent comedic chops are overshadowed by severe technical issues.
