The story is fun to watch unfold and it has many entertaining gameplay segments, too; that is, if you have patience for the more frustrating moments. 🏃♂️
If you have fond memories of the 3D fighting boom back at the turn of the millennium then you'll adore what Capcom Fighting Collection 2 has in store. Of course, fans of the 2D classics have a lot to sink their teeth into as well so there's something here for every fighting fan. 🤜
After a couple of great and highly underrated RPGs, Death end re;Quest: Code Z certainly disappoints with simply being a generic take on a Mystery Dungeon game. 🐝
I'm super-happy that a puzzle game as rewarding and whimsical as Tempopo exists so if you enjoy gradually working out elaborate solutions to complex scenarios, you'll be absolutely smitten with what it has to offer. Plus, it's so cute! And the music's great. Okay, bye. 💐
I'm very happy that games like Bionic Bay exist as it offers a super-fun 2D platforming formula that'll constantly surprise you. 👨🔬
Finishing the levels in Sacre Bleu is enjoyable enough but when you throw in its clever scoring system, you're left with a ton of replay value. ⚜️
I had some fun with BIOMORPH but it definitely doesn't live up to the dozen or so must-play indie Metroidvanias already out there. 🧬
CATO: Buttered Cat is such a silly game but it's also one of the best puzzle platformers you can play thanks to its very clever gameplay. 🧈
With its blend of character-swapping, puzzle-like scenarios, and rewarding exploration, I thoroughly enjoyed playing Wings of Endless. 🔨
Although it can be maddeningly frustrating, Bearnard remains an enjoyable game; that is, if you're willing to really hone your aiming skills. 🏹
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is an RPG that raises the bar in many ways with an engaging battle system and intriguing story that's set in a beautiful and unique world. It's definitely limited in a few ways, though, but not so much to take away from its must-play status. ⚜️
Revenge of the Savage Planet is one of my favourite games of the year with its awesomely colourful and lighthearted alien planets and entertaining gameplay that's so packed with variety, it's hard to put it down once you take off. 🪐
I loved my time with Wall Town Wonders thanks to its awesome cast of characters, adorable premise, and variety of fun mini-games. However, its glitches and unrefined aspects unfortunately make the overall experience less enjoyable. ⛏️
There's definitely fun to be had in Captain Blood with its simple and frantic action that has surprisingly satisfying old-school violence. 🏴☠️
The Hundred Line -Last Defense Academy- is a fun turn-based strategy RPG with a large entertaining cast and an intriguing story. If it featured more variety in its enemies and locales and fleshed out its characters' motivations a bit more, it would be a must-have. 🏫
There's a lot to love about Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree from its expansive and diverse map to its brutal boss fights that'll thoroughly test your character build. Its combat could definitely benefit from a bit more complexity, though. 🌲
Lost Records: Bloom & Rage - Tape 2 answers some questions and fails to deliver on other plot points. Although it provides a lot of optional endings and you learn more about Kat's life, the abundant glitches make it an only somewhat satisfying ending to the summer of '95. 📼
All in Abyss: Judge the Fake is a simple game of quirky lighthearted fun for those who enjoy a little high stakes gambling. 🃏
I sincerely love Once Upon A Puppet but its glitchiness and frustration factor are so high that it's hard to widely recommend it. 🧵
It may be quite lonely on Star Overdrive's planet but there's so much to see and do and its rockin' vibes help tie it all together. 🪐
