For fans, Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania is a no-brainer, and even newcomers will find tons of fun here. Some slightly annoying gameplay can't hinder the mountain of content and extras tied into this package.
Cloud Gardens is a dystopian sandbox puzzle-slash-sim from Noio where you make the most of the apocalypse by making plants grow. It's an ultra-Zen title that forces you to slow down, think about life, and do a little gardening - which is a totally welcome experience for when you need a breath of fresh air in today's suffocating world.
Although it's a very brief experience, every single level sent adrenaline into my veins. If you can find a game that makes me feel as jazzed as Severed Steel, savor every moment.
While Astria Ascending adds some flair to traditional turn-based combat, it has a lot of gaping flaws and too much going on for it.
The frustrating moments happen often enough to hamper the gameplay in many ways, but despite this, UnMetal is still a really solid stealth game with some genuinely funny moments throughout.
Hot Wheels Unleashed isn't perfect, but it still has the potential of fun.
While some obscure paths and crashing issues hold In Sound Mind back from greatness, the game still has a lot going for it. A fantastic story, great exploration, and some genuine scares make this indie horror worth seaking out.
While SkateBIRD has plenty of frustrations, there's enough fun here to make it worth your time. Just don't expect Pro Skater levels of polish and you'll probably be fine
Kraken Academy!! takes a dive into the bizarre, but even if the humor doesn't click for you it's a fun outing with some easy puzzles and odd characters.
I wouldn't necessarily call it a 'good' game in the sense of it having deep mechanics, but for what it tries to emulate, Bloodwash offers the best form of horror entertainment this side of a video nasty VHS.
As a noir with the punch of a pillow fight and a campy alien invasion as fun as mashed potatoes, Timothy's Night is a quasi-remake that is another misfire.
Lake's placid design philosophy cuts both ways: no flaw too egregious and no positive too remarkable.
The Repairing Mantis has excellent visual consistency that marks this out as no asset swap. This game succeeds where many indie horror titles fail, thanks to its genuine grasp of horror.
Underneath its flaws, Gamedec is a truly unique game that I could spend 30 more hours in.
Lost Judgment shows why RGG is at the top of their game. Its setbacks are hardly noticeable given its strengths.
Deathloop tries its best to live up to the reverence of preceding games like Dishonored and Prey. Unfortunately for the residents of Blackreef island, it comes up a bit short in its execution of new ideas, resulting in some limitations and jarring qualities.
Garden Story is a ripe take on Zelda-like ARPGs, but falls short in a couple of aspects.
TOEM is a serene and silly photographic journey with a few technical bumps
BloodRayne Betrayal: Fresh Bites is a barebones remaster of a middling action experience that does not hold up by today's standards.
Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is a triumph of a game, and arguably the best isometric RPG since Planescape Torment.
