Invector: Rhythm Galaxy has trouble figuring out its licensed soundtrack, and the combination of returning and brand new issues leaves the series in a difficult position moving forward.
Though its ceiling is apparently early on, Koa and the Five Pirates of Mara is an enjoyable speedrun game, just make sure to change up the default controls!
A delightful moveset coupled with an overly punishing challenge ironically makes Mr. Run and Jump a balanced recommendation. It will be great, but it will demand the most of you.
Remnant II gives players a brutal and beautiful odyssey across time and space. It won't hold your hand, it will barely tell you where you're going or how to get there, but the adventure is certainly one worth experiencing.
While there is not much in the way of gameplay, Sticky Business brings out the joy of being able to freely create.
Exoprimal could have been an exceptionally fun Overwatch successor, but its disgusting monetization and pay-to-win structure have doomed it to extinction.
Jagged Alliance 3 restores the glory, guts, and joy to a tactical RPG series too long abused. Realistic weapons mix with nail-biting combat, larger-than-life characters, and a challenge so good, you'll be begging for another hit.
Frank and Drake lures you in with its interesting rotoscoping animations, but fails to deliver on story and gameplay.
With its mind-numbingly tedious combat, clumsy dialogue and a storyline which sounds like it's still an early draft, Testament’s greatest crime is that it severely outstayed its welcome.
While there are some design flaws, they can be easily overlooked by the great storytelling and level design.
While slightly too short, what content Viewfinder does have is top notch and occasionally mind bending, matched with a bittersweet but relatable story about friendship, failure, and hope.
Oxenfree II didn't knock my socks off like the first game, but it's a smartly written and thrilling sequel to one of my favorite adventure games ever.
GYLT is packed with great atmosphere, music, and spooks galore, but the juvenile theming leaves the narrative wanting.
Master Detective Archives: Rain Code offers truly compelling mysteries in a unique cyberpunk-noir setting. The open world concept falls somewhat flat, but the crimes and puzzles themselves definitely deliver!
Despite issues with ambiguity in terms of story and gameplay mechanics, SOULVARS manages to shine as a solid and rewarding experience for those willing to invest the time to master its intricacies.
Tai's trusty cricket bat hits a respectable over in this short and sweet dungeon crawler that'll scratch that back-to-basics itch.
Amarantus is more than a visual novel—it’s a spectacular story with beautiful visuals, ever-changing ambiance, and a unique cast of characters who come to life.
Crime O'Clock is boring, tedious, and infuriating all at once: I recommend an I Spy book for a much better time.
While Aliens: Dark Descent adds an interesting RTS-twist to the typical tactical RPG, and nails the visual aesthetic of the film, the not-quite polished systems and underwhelming plot diminish what could have been one of the best games of the year.
A Little to the Left's DLC continues to turn organizing and cleaning into satisfying puzzles. Find hidden cubbies, hang tools on hooks, and put everything in its place with the Cupboards & Drawers expansion!
