Burnhouse Lane is a 2D horror adventure title that deals with a lot of serious issues and is full of disturbing visuals. The game feels a bit uneven but is an engaging experience if you are looking for a creepy time.
Creature Lab is a unique blend of weird science and a management videogame that sounds like fun at first but slowly becomes boring.
Daydream: Forgotten Sorrow is an underwhelming puzzle platformer. The eye-catching, whimsical environments simply aren't enough to salvage the poor storytelling and frustrating controls.
Homebody is a love letter to the Original PlayStation era of point-and-click survival horror. It has an interesting mystery, fun puzzles, engaging mechanics, and a fair hint system that kept me coming back! A hearty recommendation for fans of the genre!
Layers of Fear is truly a disturbing experience that even players of the previous titles need to check out. With the gorgeous Unreal Engine 5 graphics and the amazing binaural sound, this is a game that has to be played.
Master Detective Archives: RAIN CODE is a great mix of investigation, crazy word battles, and humour with a great cast of characters. If you enjoy solving mysteries and interesting stories, I am sure you will love this game.
A fantastic send-off for a cast of characters I've become attached to, Trails into Reverie is a superb RPG with the most refined battle system to date and an engaging story you'll be sad to see finally come to an end.
Crash Team Rumble stumbles in some crucial areas that could've easily been fixed before launch, but what it manages to get right makes up for almost all of its negatives. It's recommended for fans of Crash Bandicoot and multiplayer players alike.
Smushi Come Home takes all the fun parts of many beloved titles and mixes them together to make a dream come true.
Alien: Dark Descent is an absolutely brilliant experience, incredibly well-balanced, and despite being very difficult in certain areas, it doesn't ever feel unfair. Definitely worth giving a try.
Despite its lack of content and underwhelming career mode and creation suite, AEW: Fight Forever is a fun arcade wrestling title that harkens back to the golden age of the genre.
We Are Eva is a great 2D precision platformer with vibrant colour-based gameplay, lighthearted overtones, and a charming penchant for breaking the fourth wall.
Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective is one of the most rewarding puzzle games that I have ever played. With an awesome aesthetic, great music, and a story full of twists and turns, this game will keep you coming back for more.
Trepang2 is an absolutely brilliant experience. Combat is insanely fun and satisfying, and the story is entertaining. The price tag may be a little high as the content is thin, but the fantastic gameplay loop makes it worth the time and the money.
Brain Show is definitely recommended for parties and gatherings. It's a fun and novel game, so pick it up if you need something to break the ice.
Tedious busywork and a lack of gameplay variety makes Cruise Ship Manager a hard sell. It's not a Titanic-sized disaster, but there are plenty of similar games that are more worthy of your time.
Park Beyond is a spectacle to behold with some great ideas, but the glitter and lights don't quite hide the shaky foundations that desperately need some repairs.
Nocturnal is a must-play title for fans of 2D action-platformers. While it may be relatively short, it offers a satisfying challenge and a refreshing twist on the genre.
Dokapon Kingdom: Connect blends a board game with RPG elements and looks like it would be fun to play, but the pacing is so ridiculously slow that it becomes frustrating and feels bland.
A great game in its own right, with a healthy plethora of content and variety to keep you going for many hours, but if you came looking for a true Darkest Dungeon sequel you may be disappointed.
