Tell Me Why tells an engaging story of twins unraveling a mystery and forming a bond after being separated for most of their childhood. It's a more mature narrative set in a cozy Alaskan backdrop that could draw the attention of gamers who are interested in story-driven experiences yet may have been put off by all of the teen drama featured in previous Dontnod titles.
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition is the sort of game that you play to wind down with after a long day. It's not very demanding or challenging yet the adventures within remain memorable, charming, and ultimately rewarding.
Carrion is a game that I would love to play through in one night with a group of friends as long as I'm not the one playing it. While it's not the best Metroidvania to navigate, it's a joy to watch. If you love horror, especially old monster movies, this is worth checking out for the atmosphere alone as it makes for a rather spook-tacular night.
It really is amazing how well Railway Empire works as a real-time railroad-building sim for console. So, if its concept appeals to you and you don't yet own it, picking up this Complete Collection with its oodles of DLC is a must.
Giraffe and Annika certainly isn't the kind of game that you'll enjoy for its gameplay. Instead, its main appeal is found in its adorable and whimsical world that's filled with lovely sights and sounds that are sure to put a smile on your face throughout the adventure.
Mortal Shell may offer a solid experience but as I played it, I couldn't help but want to dive into the Souls series again as the amount of variety and excitement in FromSoftware's games makes this feel like a hollow shell in comparison.
Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is a hard game not to love. Even the most cynical and jaded gamers would have to jump through a lot of rotating hoops to call this fun-filled extravaganza anything less than a revolution in online gaming.
If you're a fellow fan of the original Death end re;Quest then playing Death end re;Quest 2 is a must. Although it doesn't feel like a huge step up for the series, there's definitely a lot of fun to be had in its delightfully twisted world.
Pistol Whip is a top-notch VR game and one that's 100% worth getting for fans of rail shooters. Its stylish visuals and clever scoring system make it an immersive and challenging experience that's hard to put down once you get into the groove.
In the end, Boomerang Fu's developers definitely proved that they know how to make a supremely enjoyable multiplayer experience.
As far as mini-game-fueled indies go, the amount of silly lighthearted fun in Drink More Glurp certainly makes it a stand-out title.
It's a simple game at its core but the amount of variety within Headsnatchers makes its gameplay shine as a must-have multiplayer romp.
I wish Dunk Lords featured streamlined gameplay because there's certainly a fun formula here but it's buried under complex mechanics.
It's a capable multiplayer funfest yet Aeolis Tournament's core gameplay could use more variety to help keep it fresh and exciting.
I didn't enjoy the intentionally clumsy gameplay of Brunch Club and neither did my gaming chums yet it surely has a promising premise.
It's not the most fleshed out multiplayer indie but Gerrrms still provides some good times through its intuitive and enjoyable setup.
Ultra Foodmess is a fantastic multiplayer game for kids who are looking for intuitive and accessible yet ultimately frantic gameplay.
After playing Demon's Tilt for a while, I wanted to dive back into the 1990 classic Devil's Crush. Although this is a very well-done experience, it doesn't quite live up to the classics that Compile created decades prior.
The Wonderful 101: Remastered is indeed wonderful with its action-packed campaign and highly enjoyable gameplay. As if that's not enough, there's an underlying message that I'm sure we could all use right now.
I have a big soft spot for trains and puzzle games and Locomotion combines both into a very innovative and enjoyable campaign.
