Hunt the Night is a beautiful retro-inspired game with a haunting soundtrack and great controls. It is incredibly hard, so if you aren't a fan of difficult games that have you challenging the same section, or boss for hours, this may not be a title you will enjoy.
Hyper-5 is an entertaining game for fans of horizontal Shmups with a realistic look for the ship and environments. Can get repetitive at times, but the interesting enemy designs like the ones that look like Transformers are a lot of fun to battle.
For a title one year in development, Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened impresses with enjoyable - albeit simple - puzzles, a fun story, and beautiful visuals.
Go! Go! PogoGirl is a fun and challenging 2D platforming game that has a unique way of traversing the levels since you are constantly bouncing on a pogo stick. There's not much of a story and the music can get a bit repetitive, but there is a lot of fun to be had here.
Fun, varied, and imaginative - Roxy is quite a fun arcade game!
Gripper on paper sounds like a great time, but the way it is carried out just doesn't work. The game design itself just leads to frustration, instead of a fun experience.
I don't see why anyone shouldn't pick this title up; it's phenomenal, enthralling, and - possibly most important - fun.
Terminal Velocity is just like it was when it was first released in 1995, now you can easily play it on your PC or Steam Deck. With great controls and fun gameplay, this is a fun title for people who want to be reminded of what games used to be like.
Meg's Monster is a great 2D pixel-style action-adventure game that has you exploring the underworld to help this lost human child get back to her mother. With a great story and battle mechanics it is sure to make you smile.
Chef Life: A Restaurant Simulator is a very good simulator of what it's like to be a professional chef, while also making it fun to play.
Saint Maker is certainly more tragedy than horror, and it shows. While it is well-made, I think players will enjoy the story more than the actual gameplay.
9 Years of Shadows is a great game that fans of Metroidvanias will definitely love; it's just the problems with the game crashing and freezing that make me have to score the game lower than it really deserves.
Haven Park is an easy recommendation for anyone who likes relaxing and adventurous indie titles! You just need to stick to it past the beginning and into the flow.
A disappointing effort for such a fantastic looking game, Titanium Hound's fundamental gameplay sounds interesting, but ends up as a frustrating mechanic that spoils what could have been a fun shoot 'em up.
From undesirable to undeniable, WWE games have come a long way in just a few years, and WWE 2K23, with its plethora of models and solid gameplay, is a strong contender for "GOAT" status.
A roguelike tower defence game that doesn't throw any punches in relation to its story, pixelated graphics and killer soundtrack. I'm sure you'll have a blast on the pursuit to banish all magic with The Last Spell.
I really wanted to love Void Scrappers, and I enjoyed the first few hours of what I played quite a lot, but after a while, I noticed its problems and how easily they could've been fixed before release. However, I'm still looking forward to the next game from 8BitSkull because of this title's addicting nature.
Planet Cube: Edge is a great-looking 2D precision platformer that is incredibly challenging and rewarding at the same time. Due to its difficulty, a lot of players may be frustrated and defeated when they die almost 200 times in an hour to complete only one stage.
I Was A Teenage Exocolonist is not short of becoming an exemplary title in fantastic writing and storytelling, and easily my favourite entry into the visual novel genre thus far.
DARQ: Ultimate Edition stands out with great visual and audio design, immersing you within its nightmarish dream world without needing to say a single word. Your time playing as Lloyd, while short, will be a memorable one full of clever puzzles, strange enemies, and physics-bending mechanics.
