A charming mix of local folklore, some music, and a sense of adventure
There are some old-school Super Sprint vibes here, but frustrations with controls and unlocks hold them back
There are just some eras in gaming that are tough to return to, and I’d argue this is a game from one such time
The start-up is a bit on the slow side, but if you’re looking for a Metroidvania with some personality it delivers
The concept of racing through a disaster zone would be interesting if it weren’t for the poor controls and nasty bugs
While its time-looping challenge to prevent disaster is interesting, the execution of its mechanics stymie easy enjoyment
A pretty approachable modern-ish take on the classic tactical strategy RPGs of yesteryear with some soapy drama
So it’s an “accessible” racing game with a variety of equine rides… but it is also quite limited and dull
Embodying the indie spirit, determined to do its own thing proudly, this will be a home run for the right crowd
There’s nothing wrong with another variation on Overcooked’s formula, but aside from theme this fails to differentiate
This budget twin-stick shooter delivers a novel main game, but the magic is in 4 twin-stick takes on arcade classics
While co-op space survival has been done, This Means Warp’s roguelike unpredictability steps it up a notch
A story with some heart helps to somewhat elevate what otherwise is generally another variation on time management
A pair of more traditional shooters and one banger that has a classic feel but plays quite well flesh out this mini collection
Fans of busting ghosts or who may even enjoy doing some haunting online should find this to be quite engaging
Grind, grind, grind some more… and perhaps you’d like to get some DLC too!
Though it’s a pretty simple and budget-priced puzzle action game it manages to deliver a pretty great value
Taking the SteamWorld franchise in a very different direction, mixing together city management with a bit of Dungeon Keeper
This mix of rail shooting and low-budget FMV footage is simply a mess
This time warping puzzler will bring some challenge but is treading relatively familiar ground without much new inspiration
