While it’s hardly a fishing sim, there’s plenty of simple family-friendly arcade action to be had here
Considering the landscape of indie horror games that more often misses than hits, this does reasonably well
The revered arcade brick breaker is here, and with some interesting new modes to boot, but one big problem…

This budget seasonal shooter may be lack depth, but it valiantly tries to compensate with breadth of modes
Though the game’s mix of puzzle and strategy is novel, the mix of dumb frustrations and sameness sets in pretty quickly
Despite its visual simplicity, this budget adventure manages to be charming with some pleasant surprises along the way
If you (and potentially a friend) don’t mind the frustration of trying to get (and then keep) going, Robotry is a unique challenge
With no quickly meaningful objectives, merely flying around empty landscapes making deliveries, this falls flat
Abe and the Oddworld series feel like they’ve hit a new stride with Soulstorm, but there are also some losses
An intriguing historical mystery helps to add some flavor to this adventure, but the minigames miss more than they hit
With its decidedly older-school approach to survival horror and more mundane “scares”, this won’t be a win for everyone
While not making for a bad experience, paying for a game still dripping with in-game purchase nonsense isn’t cool
Simple lesson: Don’t cross your cat or they’ll set a series of diabolical death traps for you
Feeling like a shakily-adapted VR adventure, it’s a somewhat serene but often irritating experience
A very attractive and satisfyingly violent run-n-gun shooter, though dogged by periodic performance issues
If you don’t mind the repetitive grind of bringing up your giant beastie, it can be quite endearing
This very dark take on childhood fairytale characters is quite cool pretty, but it gets let down by less inspired combat and controls
Colorful, reasonably challenging, and with its own general feel, this budget tower defense title has appeal
If your goal is to get into a groove of satisfying service, maintenance, and renovation tasks, this does a reasonable job of it
