Despite a relatively enjoyable gameplay loop, Dig or Die doesn't have enough content to keep it engaging for long. Dull visuals and occasionally frustrating controls add to a game that shows promise but is ultimately a disappointment.
Aside from minor niggles that didn't affect my personal experience, Once a Porn a Time is a hilarious journey that doesn't take itself seriously, and if you give in to the whackiness, you'll love it all the more for it.
Pool Cleaning Simulator tries to be interesting, and it does work at times, but at the end of the day, it's more like doing chores than playing a game.
Lost in Tropics is barely a survival game and I can't even tell it was a roguelite. There are better games that will last you longer than three real weeks than the three in-game weeks this game asks of you.
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.
Monster Hunter Stories is a charming and adorable monster-catching experience. Become engrossed with its characters, hatch some Monsties and have a blast in the humorous world and its weirdly addictive gameplay. Definite recommend!
A decently fun action game which skirts the line between teenage appropriate and 18+.
Swarm Grinder is a good time but it does lack a little variety. You have to keep yourself engaged all throughout and there's plenty to do, but prepare for an actual grind to victory.
The Last Spell - Dwarves of Runenber adds a new race and weapons with fun abilities and new combinations to try, in addition to a real endurance match of a map. A definite recommend, though note the short length.
Venture to the Vile is a challenging metroidvania set in a mysterious and creepy world that has an interesting story that will draw you in.
A laid-back puzzle game with a charming minimalist look, Please Fix The Road will be sure to delight gamers of any age or skill. Well worth the price for some truly enjoyable puzzles!
Fabledom is a great city builder, adding some much needed variety into the genre. It does have its flaws, but none are even close to being game-ruining.
Distant Bloom beams you up to the cosiest alien planet you could dream of. It has minor issues, but they don't detract from the cute, relaxing experience as you revitalise a wilted world.
Thunder Age is more of a demo than a full game, but it shows promise and offers enough challenge to keep you occupied for the short time it offers. Also, it's free.
HYPERCHARGE: Unboxed looks great, has local and online cross-play multiplayer, and makes you feel like a kid. This is a must-play title!
POOLS is not for the easily anxious, even if there's nothing in the water to pull you down. The sounds alone will make you fear the depths. You should
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.
Rauniot is a short but tense puzzle adventure with a great mix of charm and unease. While the language barrier may affect your experience, the short length and interesting puzzles are worth having a look at. Doubly so if you speak the language. TORILLE!
Still Joking had a lot of potential in its plot, but the 400,000 words did little to introduce us to it and bring it to life, settling instead for short, inorganic quips, rushed ideas, and clichés.
While Kingsgrave doesn't do anything really new, everything it does it does well. It might not hold your attention for a hundred hours, but you'll have fun while you are there.
