Silent Hill f is the first full original entry in the hugely popular survival horror series, Silent Hill, since the lowest and last point in the series, Silent Hill: Downpour in 2012.
While Arctic Awakening feels very directionless in its plot and frustrating character writing, it's serviceable as a walking sim for fans of the genre who may enjoy its beautiful setting and interesting premise.
Bad Cheese thrives on its stunningly digusting art style, but only its art style. In comparison, its gameplay is dull and overlooks a stealth focus that could have made its horror and story themes shine. And by the time the game picks up the pace, it's already finished.
Dead Take stands out in the genre of horror walking sims with its intriguing story, talented cast and FMV elements. Unfortunately its horror aspects are where it falls flat, as it tries to cram itself into the genre with the use of cheap jump scares and horror clichés.
While Heartworm isn't very challenging in its survival horror, its creative and well-designed puzzle elements still present a fun gameplay experience. It wears its inspiration of 1990s survival horror classics on its sleeve, while also making its own footprint in gorgeous, colourful visuals and lonely atmosphere.
Luto
While Luto is a beautiful game with experimental visuals and storytelling, holding an impactful message on the emptiness of grief, its pacing issues, inconsistent tone and lack of actual horror kill off the momentum set at the beginning of the game.
The Alters is a unique survival base-building game with addictive gameplay and a memorable, engaging and deep storyline. What's more, it's easily replayable for those reaching for completion.
Yes, Your Grace 2: Snowfall offers everything the first game did, but worse. While being a struggle to get through due to its launch bugs, flaws exists within its storyline and gameplay which are much harder to fix.
Lost Records: Bloom & Rage is a visually gorgeous slog of a game that lacks a plot until over halfway through and characters that no amount of cute hangouts could make me like.
Blue Prince is an extraordinary achievement in puzzle games and its scale is incomprehensible and unlike anything I've seen in this genre before. This game is more than just a journey of an heir claiming his inheritance.
While Atomfall's ending left some significant questions unanswered, it is immensely fun to play. With multiple avenues to explore in this gorgeously crafted world and a quest system that doesn't hold your hand, it really feels like the story is in the player's hands.
YOUR HOUSE is a brilliantly creative text-based narrative puzzle game that uses every tool at its disposal to remain as interactive as possible while still delivering a great narrative in the form of a digitized novel.
