ISLANDERS: New Shores is a chill building experience, full of strategy, that requires a lot of planning to maximise your score, but it remains a calm and relaxing experience.
NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound is a perfect addition to the series. It looks and sounds amazing, and with accessibility options it feels more fair. It's great!
Gore Doctor is an example of when a developer just makes a lazy, bad game. Be warned.
I really enjoyed my time with Hell Clock. It balances all its aspects just right: narrative, gameplay, progression, and difficulty. Just watch the clock, you might lose yourself down in Hell.
Atomic Owl is a roguelike title set in a neon-filled world that, while looking nice, was frustrating to play, making it feel unfair.
Killing Floor 3 does everything you want right, but at the same time, it lacks some of the magic seen in the older games.
Dungeons & Dragons Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition brings a classic back for modern audiences. While it retains some of the idiosyncrasies of its time and can be a bit complex, it's still well worth a try, especially with the potential of Steam Workshop!
Wheel World is a cyclist's haven, with tons of challenging races to beat, lands to cycle through, and heaps of customisation options to create your perfect bicycle. Highly recommended.
No Sun to Worship is a fun little exercise in retro stealth, but there's not much here for anyone looking for a deeper adventure.
A gloriously depressing psychological horror tale, conveyed with the visual style of Fallout and the mechanics of Monkey Island.
Mado Monogatari: Fia and the Wondrous Academy has a fun school setting where you take classes to learn new spells. Plus, who doesn't love Carbuncle?
A short, yet fantastic horror game. A masterclass in storytelling and atmosphere.
HUNTER×HUNTER NEN×IMPACT is fun when it works, but its lack of content, polish, and dysfunctional online make it a hard sell, especially at its price point.
RoboCop: Rogue City - Unfinished Business is a lot of fun. I honestly did want more RoboCop, and that's exactly what I got. Sure, you don't get to ticket cars this time, but you do get to resolve disputes between neighbours and tell punks to make your day! I just wish that it didn't have so many major issues…
The Drifter is a well-written, fast-paced point-and-click thriller that will keep you glued to your seat. It's a must-play for those who love puzzlers, mystery, and adventure.
Vessels of Decay is a great-looking, retro-inspired game that is unfortunately more frustrating to play because it's buggy.
Mario Kart World is an amazing-looking and sounding title on the Switch 2. I love all the new tracks and characters, though the way you unlock them feels unfair.
A fun, low-stakes 3D platformer with tiny robots in worlds no bigger than a garden.
Everdeep Aurora is a chill game full of exploration and puzzles. It has a fun cast of animals to interact with, but the map is very vague and hard to follow.
Shuffle Tactics is a good tactical roguelike that offers plenty of reasons to think ahead to combat The Glimmer. It needs refinement in places, but updates have done a lot to improve the game since its initial release.
