Moral of the review, beware of copy-and-paste news stories and play Last Train Home unless you want a little faster action, you're an opportunist, a cutthroat, or a Bolshevik.
Pixel Cafe is a heartwarming game that will not only challenge you but also feels rewarding. With a great pixel look and soundtrack, this is a fun title to check out!
Persona 5 Tactica is just as stylish and fun as any of the main series. While it does hit the same beats as other stories in the franchise, it's still a great time if you give it a try.
Surprisingly complex maths equations paired with a ticking timer might have been the single deterring factor in Tales of Mathasia if it wasn't for the consistently wrong English and shoddy proofreading throughout an educational title.
The choices lose a bit of their variety as the story goes on and the combat can be a tad simplistic, but The Bookwalker is a beautiful exercise in exploring the humanity of fiction and why we, the audience, should feel for the characters on the page.
A simple-looking yet mechanically rich title, Alina of the Arena's addictive gameplay always felt rewarding no matter how long I played, and it always felt like there was a new card just waiting to be found.
A really nicely crafted little shooter with a banging metal soundtrack and the look and feel of the PlayStation 1 era. It's well worth checking out if you're a fan of the genre.
In Stars and Time is an intriguing game with a crazy time loop system. If you are willing to put in the time needed, you will be rewarded with a great story with fun characters.
Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name is a masterful entry in the franchise, and only makes me crave even more from the series.
It's a very short and simple experience, as the Steam page suggests, but it's definitely worth the time if you like the idea of cleaning an alien ocean to help the fishies out.
Bzzzt is definitely everything I want in a retro-style platformer. It's fun with great controls and music to make you keep going even after 100 deaths. I cannot recommend this game enough.
KarmaZoo is such a fun approach to online multiplayer games, that rewards you for being a good teammate. With great characters, the KarmaPass, and gameplay, you must play this!
Accompany Roberto through 100 levels of enjoyable and inventive worlds as you help him carry his stick to his destination!
Cuisineer is an excellent culinary adventure full of cute characters, tasty dishes, and challenging goals to strive towards as you become unstoppable both out in the world and in the kitchen.
There are some nuggets of gold in Farmer's Life, but it is limited by a plodding start and repetitive gameplay.
Torn Away is a really impactful experience that is definitely worth playing. It's not the most interesting gameplay, but the story alone makes it an amazing game that is definitely worth buying.
My only gripes are predominantly mechanical and slightly limiting options, as otherwise, Spells & Secrets is an easy no-brainer for magic lovers and enthusiasts looking for a wizarding home.
Jumanji Wild Adventures is an entertaining action-adventure title that is faithful to the movies it's based on. It has some issues but is still entertaining to play, even when you aren't a kid.
The best modern rally game to date, packed to the brim with big stages and plenty of cars. With updates like the Central European course coming later, as well as VR support down the line. If you're a fan of rallying in general, you owe it to yourself to have this one in your library.
There are some issues with the game, but they certainly don't hamper the fun of smashing through the walls of Detroit.
