Annihilated is probably best described as a story-driven roguelike, rather than a traditional dungeon crawler. If you expect complex maze exploration or a combat system with endless strategic possibilities, some limitations will become apparent fairly quickly.
Prinny Party: Going Overboard! has a really interesting premise but doesn't quite provide enough material to justify its asking price. Disgaea lovers with pals willing to spend several hours investigating its mechanics might find something useful here. If, however, you mostly want a classic party game with loads of different boards, activities, and reasons to keep coming back, this edition is hard to recommend.
TANUKI: Pon's Summer is a very different proposition from a more demanding adventure. A very good alternative to Animal Crossing for those who want more freedom of movement and some arcade-style activities.
Funeral for the Sun delivers an exceptional deduction adventure with memorable characters, rewarding puzzles, beautiful artwork, and an emotionally rich multi-generational mystery.
Fallout 4 VR is ultimately a challenging yet fascinating experience. This isn't a professional VR port, so don't assume everything will work smoothly out of the box. But if you have the patience to tinker with its settings and install the correct mods, there’s a great open-world adventure beneath the rough edges.
Psycho-Sleuth is a qualified recommendation that gets better the longer you stay. The first stretch is the weakest, but around Chapter 2 it picks up, and the disorder mechanic starts being used the way the premise promised.
Borderlands 2 VR is a fun adaptation that offers a novel way to experience one of the franchise’s best chapters. The core adventure is still strong enough to make the voyage rewarding, though it might have been better with group play, DLC support, and more complex motion interactions.
Townsmen VR offers plenty of fun, but at its price, the flaws stand out more. If you're especially into VR god simulators, there’s plenty to enjoy here. Townsmen VR is ultimately a great illustration of how VR can breathe new life into a well-worn genre. It’s not as difficult as the major city-building games, but its adorable presentation and rewarding physical interactions are worth checking out.
Chivalware isn't perfect, but it has a lot going for it, with its imaginative battle system, fun progression, and gorgeous visuals. The best moments come when you find a combination that dramatically changes how you approach interactions.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is a careful remake that keeps the original design while upgrading everything around it. It's easy and lacks Master Quest, but it looks, sounds, and plays wonderfully, and it suits returning players and newcomers alike.
I AM YOUR BEAST VR may not have the most memorable story and the campaign isn’t particularly long, but the gameplay in between is great. Flat2VR Studios has done a good job translating this experience to virtual reality, and it’s one of those conversions that helps you appreciate how much an existing game can benefit from a fresh perspective.
Hull Rupture is a distinct strategy game experience, built on a fun mix of base management, factory automation, tower defense, and dark comedy.
Loftia is a very promising cozy life sim right now, and it captures what makes its world so appealing. It just hasn't quite worked out all the gameplay bits yet. There's plenty to keep farming, crafting, and home-decorating fans busy, especially if you're the sort of person who likes trying different things and building a community. If you're looking for a fully fleshed-out experience, though, you're likely to be a bit frustrated with the current state of things.
Probably Stolen delivers an addictive cyberpunk shopkeeping experience with excellent pixel art, meaningful decisions, and satisfying progression, although excessive busywork and restrictive saving occasionally undermine its otherwise impressive gameplay.
Curse of Resthaven is still a gripping game that should appeal to anyone who appreciates investigative adventures like Return of the Obra Dinn, Pentiment, The Séance of Blake Manor, and The Case of the Golden Idol. It shows you can do something remarkable with originality, great scripting, and well-connected gameplay mechanics without a huge development budget.
NOMALITH might deliver an experience that blends exhilarating fighting with the unpleasant atmosphere its concept promises. My main conclusion is that ANOMALITH doesn’t need to be a totally different game to succeed. It just has to make its existing ideas more challenging, diverse, and important.
Croc 2 Kingdom of the Gobbos is a wonderful slice of platforming history, but it doesn’t quite live up to the definitive comeback this loving crocodile deserves.
Stygian: Outer Gods is an intriguing debut from Misterial Games that punches above its weight at times. Its shortcomings prevent it from being a standout horror experience, but there’s enough stuff here to make a trip through Kingsport worth it.
Phantom Blade Zero is a superb example of a game that knows what it does well, and constructs nearly everything else around it. Its tale may be plagued by unclear memories, underdeveloped relationships, and too much unnecessary backstory, but once the battle starts, those faults are easier to overlook.
Warrior Cats: Clans of the Forest doesn't quite feel like the video game adaptation the books warrant. It's more a very good first pass than the definitive product. The foundation is there, and the nostalgia is real, but the mechanics need more depth, and the presentation needs to be much more polished.
