Possessor(s) isn’t short on heart and style, but sometimes the gameplay doesn’t seem as innovative and tight as the concept. PC version reviewed. Review copy provided by company for testing purposes.
While Winter Burrow doesn’t shy away from the darker sides of survival games, it’s also a charming and calming life sim. Switch version reviewed. Review copy provided by company for testing purposes.

Once Upon a Katamari feels like it is as strong of an entry as a game like We Love Katamari, and it captures the essence of the series.
Ball x Pit is a novel game that combines many roguelike, block-busting, and city organization elements in a way that makes sense.
Wander Stars is interesting and tells a Dragon Ball type of tale, especially considering its novel combat system that uses words to construct every action.
I appreciate the execution in Battle Suit Aces and how it prioritizes characters and stories, resulting in a game that reminds me of Gundam series in the best ways.
Much like Estelle does to Joshua in the game’s opening moments, Nihon Falcom kicks you in the face with Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter’s excellence.
I’m going to keep it simple here and say you need to play Hades 2. It is that good. It is worth it. You will regret it if you don’t.
Consume Me is fantastic at making the player feel things, like frustration at situations and joy at finishing a to-do list.
Atelier Resleriana: The Red Alchemist & the White Guardian feels like a more simple entry, and it sadly looks bad on the Switch.
Baby Steps is yet another example of a Bennett Foddy game that can test you, frustrate you, and make you laugh at the silliest situations.
A sad story touching on themes that are sadly still relevant today, Silent Hill f is a fun and unforgettable horror game with a uniquely beautiful aesthetic.
I feel like Little Problems: A Cozy Detective Game is a game you open up and play when you’re looking for a slight challenge to wind down.
Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion goes above and beyond to make players feel involved in the story and customize their Arsenal.
While the OFF remaster is valuable, there are times when I felt like the original game resonated more with me.
