007 First Light is a great start to what will hopefully be a new series of games. There are certainly some areas to improve upon but what's here is a lot of fun and it does a great job of delivering a game that feels worthy of the franchise while setting the stage for more. ๐ธ
Mina the Hollower is simply one of the best games you'll ever play. Between its outstanding world design, visceral sense of challenge, beautiful retro presentation, and absurd amount of content, you'll be burrowing into this gem over and over again. ๐ญ
Bubsy 4D is a loosey-goosey 3D platformer with plenty of silliness on display and it offers oodles of entertaining challenges that make its messy gameplay really shine. I'd even go so far to say that it's the cat's pajamas. ๐งถ
The amount of adorable displays of imagination in Bluey's Quest for the Gold Pen make it one lovely adventure that anyone can easily enjoy. ๐๏ธ

Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is simply a breath of fresh air with its adorable discovery-based gameplay that'll make you feel like a zoologist in a 2D platformer as you smile at all of the super-silly good times on display. What a wonderful game! ๐
Rune Dice is a delightful indie that'll have you flicking dice until the wee hours of the morning as your hero beats up all sorts of monster cuties. ๐ฒ
R-Type Dimensions III may be one of the toughest shoot 'em ups ever made but the amount of fun to be had in this striking remake is superb. ๐ฅ

If you have a few chums to play with, The Spell Brigade will quickly become your go-to multiplayer Survivors-like funfest for sure. ๐งโโ๏ธ
The clever ways in which Zombie Rollerz: The Last Ship blends Survivors-like gameplay with management strategy make it one unique indie. ๐ง
STARBITES may be generic in a lot of ways but there's no denying how charming its cast is and how well its many elements come together to formulate a rewarding battle system that gradually becomes more strategic as you progress. ๐ฆพ
Forza Horizon 6 combines picturesque Japanese scenery with perfectly tuned racing to create a racer that you'll keep coming back to. ๐พ
Akuma Rise is one of my new favourite retro-inspired RPGs thanks to its meaty story and orb management system that'll keep you happily experimenting with breaking down and building up your arsenal as you forge ahead through its unconventional game world. ๐น
If you're looking for a cute and chill fun time then you have to play Hello Kitty Island Adventure - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + City Town because it's so full of adorable characters and rewarding content that it's hard to stop thinking about once you put it down. ๐๏ธ

Cinematic 2D action adventure games don't get much more striking or immersive as REPLACED and its intuitive gameplay systems are superb. ๐จ
Out of all the Survivors-likes that I've played, TerraTech Legion stands out as one of the most unique and it's highly entertaining stuff indeed. ๐ฅ
As an enjoyable yet standard 16-bit shoot 'em up, ZPF is a merely passable shooter albeit with some fleeting moments of fun here and there. ๐ช
