GameGrin's Reviews
A simple, yet incredibly effective roguelike, focusing purely on the necessities, which makes for a surprisingly engaging title.
A lighter side-entry into the Trails series, The Legend of Nayuta: Boundless Trails may not engross you in its narrative, but will surely charm you with its carefree nature.
The Lamplighters League's approach to mixing real-time and turn-based tactical gameplay is enjoyable, and its charming misfits make banter a delight. If it can fix its technical issues, it has a chance to be a hit.
Enter a world where crime doesn't happen, and investigate murder, theft, and apocalypse. Also lots of talking.
Limerick: Cadence Mansion offers solid, scary gameplay for fans of the action-horror genre and puzzlers. Full of rhythm and rhyme, you're in for a spooky time.
This game is as great as Captain Pike's hair. If you're ready to blink away three hours of your life in what feels like three minutes, Star Trek: Infinite is for you.
Par for the Dungeon is a simple, easy, and casual mini-golf title that I enjoyed more than I ever expected. If you're new to the genre and want to branch out, it's definitely a great title, but it might be less so for veterans.
Lords of the Fallen feels like a passionless soulslike, relying on the same old tricks to make its experience "difficult" all the while failing to lean on its most innovative ideas.
An adorably cute shmup suitable for all skill levels, with a surprising amount of depth and content. A great soundtrack and cute (if basic) visuals make this a fun time.
Bounty of One may look like other roguelite bullet-hell titles that you have played in the past, but being able to play multiplayer, and making it so that you can only shoot when you aren't moving makes it challenging!
Despite some minor issues and some disorienting audio, I appreciated the metanarrative and surrealism of [I] doesn't exist. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys story-rich games.
Deathbulge: Battle of the Bands is a superb turn-based RPG with an excellent music-themed battle system, a charming cast of characters, and non-stop jokes. Pick this one up if you need a silly escape into a boppin' world.
Nice to see another Assassin's Creed game to explain yet another exciting story on another character, well done Ubisoft.
Bang-On Balls: Chronicles is a true return to classic collect-a-thons, there is just too much to do. Complete the quests, get cosmetics, gather collectibles, get cosmetics, destroy the world, get cosmetics... and then look good while doing it, too.
AK-xolotl is a twin-stick shooter full of action and personality. What bad can happen from giving cute creatures deadly weapons? It's amazing how guilty this game made me feel for thinking about sacrificing my baby's happiness to power my character up!
Although A Tiny Sticker Tale doesn't bring a ton of innovation to the genre, I think it's a great game to enjoy if you're looking for something cute, short, and relaxing to pass the time.
Whilst not having as much additional content as a full sequel perhaps should have, Train Sim World 4 is still undoubtedly the king of the rails. The almost inexhaustible amount of content on offer is enough to get any train fan to hop on board.
Bilikin's Folly is a jolly adventure across the seas that makes treasure hunting fun, full of tricky puzzles and great characters, and the only time you'll get frustrated is from your own folly.
Starfield shines through some glaring issues that definitely dampen the experience but don't ruin it altogether. With plenty to see and do, sheer immersion will be enough to carry you through to the end of Bethesda's latest offering.
Death Unphased is an especially great precision platformer for hardcore fans of the genre who are looking for a challenge, but for the more casual crowd, the skill ceiling might be too high to truly enjoy.
