LEGO Voyagers is whimsical, charming, and honestly, the perfect game to play when you need to relax and connect with someone else.

Sword of the Sea
8.0

Giant Squid, the indie studio behind ABZÛ and The Pathless, is gearing up to release Sword of the Sea. The latest addition to their credits, Sword of the Sea is a new atmospheric surfing adventure that continues the studio’s tradition of unique artistic design, captivating scores, and above all else, exploration.

There is something magical in Tales of the Shire: A The Lord of The Rings Game, but it’s sometimes hard to find it… Still, I keep thinking that while a Hobbit hole means comfort, Tolkien’s favorite characters also deserve a bit more depth than just resting on genre fundamentals.

DOOM The Dark Ages is aggressive as hell, loud, fast, and all the fun you want. Sometimes you just need to pick up a shotgun, a flail, and a saw-bladed shield and rip through baddies. To put it simply, DOOM The Dark Ages is rewarding. The gameplay matters and ultimately makes up for any weaknesses in the story.

Ultimately, Compulsion Games has created a love letter to the South, to its beauty and its stories. The dark fairytale we see in South of Midnight is narratively one of the heaviest hitters I’ve played, and that’s something special.

Ivy Road has made a game that has impact and one that doesn’t change its protagonist, but you, the player, too. Wanderstop is monumental because it provides comfort by simply giving us all permission to slow down.

Two Point Museum is a fantastic addition to the Two Point management sim title list. It lives up to the studios’ past games but never feels derivative. Everything about the game feels special, providing a blended experience that is accessible to new players at first before it begins to layer new systems into the game, building depth for the more seasoned management sim fan.

When Lost Records: Bloom and Rage is strong, it’s strong. But without the Tape 2 Rage, I’m unfortunately left with too much gap to close, not enough life lived, and not enough of a tactile experience to immerse me in Swann’s life and Velvet Cove.

Hello Kitty Island Adventure is your new favorite cozy exploration game. While it looks similar to others in the genre, once you start playing, the truth is that there is nothing like Hello Kitty Island Adventure when it comes to exploration.
