Catto’s Post Office is a brilliant little mail delivery game developed by Brisbane-based indie devs In Shambles Studio and published by CULT Games (Go-Go Town). It’s the perfect palate cleanser between heavier games, or a sweet wind down if you’re after something short, cute, and cosy.
Hinokami Chronicles 2 is more refinement than revolution. It still stumbles in the same places — pacing, story mode exploration and boss fight design.
It’s like the train is being pulled in two directions, and we’re just stuck in the middle.
The Drifter is bold, bizarre, and full of surprises. It’s the kind of game that lingers long after the credits roll.
Donkey Kong Bananza is an imperfect masterpiece. Its ambition pushes Nintendo’s new console — the Nintendo Switch 2 — up to and beyond its limit; serving as both a technical showcase and a reality check.
Cast n Chill is pure vibes. Gorgeous, minimal, and quietly addictive. It’s not very deep, but it doesn’t need to be. It’s calm, it’s beautiful, and it knows exactly what it’s doing.
Everdeep Aurora capitalises on the nostalgia for Game Boy Color era aesthetics delivering a whimsical journey that had every sentimental bone in my body tingling. While it doesn’t quite stick the landing, I still enjoyed the majority of my time with the game.
Ruffy and the Riverside is everything I hoped it would be. It’s a nostalgic 3D platformer filled with charm, whacky characters, and a great balance of puzzle-solving and platforming. The SWAP mechanic is a real highlight, offering a fresh and clever way to progress through the world. Controls are tight, the camera behaves, and the whole experience feels smooth and satisfying.
DEATH STRANDING 2: ON THE BEACH is a sequel through and through, not straying too far from the style and set-up established within the first game. Instead, choosing to improve upon the formula in almost every way, putting more focus on action, pacing, and enemy encounters.
Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour is a glorified learning module.
Elden Ring Nightreign delivers a dynamic, adrenaline-fuelled take on the Souls formula. It’s tailored for hardcore fans with fast pacing, and brutally tough bosses... But its reliance on recycled content, and long expedition times may deter newcomers or those seeking a more traditional Elden Ring experience. For seasoned FromSoftware devotees like myself, it’s a compelling challenge. I only hope matchmaking improves at launch — because I’m itching for another run.
At first glance, Projected Dreams looks more like a motor-skill exercise for children than a game, but it quickly became clear that it was much more than that.
“There’s something sacred about revisiting an old-school PS2 title and finding it not only intact but enhanced only where needed. The remaster of Onimusha 2: Samurai’s Destiny pulls off that rare feat — retaining the original’s quirky charm and soul. Capcom has tweaked the game in just enough places that it doesn’t ruin the nostalgia.”
Overall, A Pirate’s Fortune is a fun, engaging expansion that that feels even better thanks to nearly a year of updates and polish to Outlaws. While it doesn’t reinvent the game, it adds meaningful depth to Kay Vess’ journey. Initially, I questioned whether this new quest was true to the Kay Vess’ character, but it all unravelled nicely.
With addictive combat, intense boss battles, and an anime-like aesthetic, there’s a lot to love about Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade. Unfortunately, that’s all undercut by a frustrating lack of variety and an upgrade system that is far too grindy.
Being a fan of AFL video games is a lot like supporting North Melbourne. You convince yourself that things are about to turn around. You latch on to bright spots and get excited about experienced talent returning to steer the ship. But in the end, you often have a miserable experience as you force yourself through each game. Thankfully, AFL 26 bucks this trend with solid gameplay bolstered by a variety of game modes, however there remains many areas for improvement.
Doom: The Dark Ages isn’t without its demons. Its slower story struggles to keep pace with the chaos, and the metal soundtrack rarely reaches its iconic heights. But when it works, it really works — crushing combat, intricate exploration, and a Slayer who still defines fury in motion.
Expedition 33 is a game that spoke to my soul. I quickly fell in love with this awe-inspiring yet melancholic world and the survivors left in it, and even though it tore my heart to shreds multiple times, I’d happily do it all over again.
If you’ve ever wanted a game that blends brain-tickling puzzles with bloomin’ adorable charm, Tempopo might just be your jam — strawberry-flavoured and served with a soothing synth soundtrack.
Star Overdrive proudly wears its influences on its sleeve, for better and worse. With around 10–15 hours of main quests and plenty of lore to uncover, there’s something here worth digging into.
