Everafter Falls certainly takes some notes from similar games in the genre. At the same time, it feels oddly constrained and vaguely incomplete. If you're wanting to try a different flavor of Stardew-clone, this one might be something of an acquired taste.
The Seeing Stars DLC is A Little To the Left's best content yet, with dozens of new puzzles focusing on multiple creative solutions that will truly tease your brain!
Shadow of the Erdtree recreates the exact feelings that made me fall in love with the FromSoft formula, but is this success built on the breathing corpse of the studio's identity worth the price?
Though it controls well and has some unique qualities among modern racers, NeoSprint's lack of charisma will make its multiplayer and track creating tools difficult to shine in the long run.
Updated for modern systems, Riven reminds us why it's a classic adventure game. Perhaps a bit short now, occasionally obtuse in its puzzles, but still visually stunning and engaging.
Night Springs is a fantastic anthology that makes use of Remedy's eclectic collection of characters and locations to create some truly absurd Twilight Zone-esque stories that are good fun for any fan of the studio.
Still Wakes the Deep delivers a strong atmosphere and specific sense of place that make its unique mix of cosmic horror and grounded natural disaster survival thriller work beautifully.
With its pleasant atmosphere, simple mechanics, important lessons, and characters you're sure to fall in love with, Tavern Talk is a must for visual novel fans. Bonus points if you like D&D.
Lesson Learned is a fun historical tower defense, but doesn't bring anything new to the genre.
SKELER BOY tries to be too many things at once and fails to execute many of its premises.
While the film making simulator is fun, it's both lacking in content and buried under a huge, boring management simulator that dilutes the magic of movies.
Nine Sols strikes true in everything it does, and stands out among its peers in almost every genre it touches.
While cute and cozy, Kamaeru can definitely become frustrating if played for longer periods of time with little variation in gameplay.
Senua's Saga: Hellblade II showcases a level of visual prowess that blows anything we've seen so far out of the water and uses it to present a journey that, while short, excites from beginning to end.
Pine Hearts may have everything you need for a wholesome story game, including lots of meandering roads and fetch quests.
A delectable morsel of silliness, mischievousness, and exploration. You’ll want to gobble up every last goofy bit this tiny game has to offer.
It's hard to say what Astor: Blade of The Monolith wanted to be. Action-RPG? Open world adventure? Techno-fable? Biting social commentary? Whatever it's ambitions, the end state is a pretty looking piece with little in the way of challenge or narrative depth.
While Umbraclaw has an interesting core mechanic revolving around the nine lives of a cat, it's lacking in execution with bland level design and lackluster combat.
With interesting choices behind each fold, Paper Trail is a fantastic puzzle game worthy of your time. Crisp and clean like all paper games should be.
Duck Detective: The Secret Salami is a twisty mystery featuring off-the-wall humor, a memorable cast of characters, and some truly spectacular voice acting. The Duck Detective may crave bread, but I crave more Duck Detective!
