Orbitals delivers an enjoyable but very linear story filled with a wide variety of puzzles that highlight Shapefarm's ability to create a multitude of creative scenarios with just a few tools.
Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy is an enticing mystery where you'll delve through rooms of puzzles and fast flowing combat to reveal the mystery of the Minotaur. Check out our review!
Halo: Campaign Evolved is a great modern adaptation of Master Chief's maiden voyage. If the Bonus Missions are a sign of what's to come, I'm excited for the future of Halo
The Remake Of The End Of The Greatest RPG Of All Time is an escape room masquerading as a multi-level RPG about the final hours of a RPG, indie development, and fan backlash to treading on 'sacred ground'.
Directive 8020 does a lot correctly, but tends to get in its own way instead of letting the player sit in the uncomfortableness. The new Turning Point system makes exploring new outcomes a breeze.
Resident Evil Requiem does a good job creating a classic Resident Evil experience, while also giving the characters and story room to breathe through swapping protagonists. Fun (and scary) from the first moment you're jumpscared!
Tarsier's Reanimal is a fun and creepy adventure to spend alone or with a friend for a few hours, the co-op experience doesn't add much but you'll be able to bounce ideas of the deeper story as you're escaping from hellish birds
Deadpool VR is an arcadey hack and slash adventure with the promise of a Deadpool that never stops talking. While some of the cutscenes are longwinded and the melee gameplay isn't great the shooting and movement options allow you to set up fun combos. There's a lot of replayability, but long levels might discourage you from too much backtracking.
Pokémon Legends ZA is an incredible new entry set in a world that's as alive as the characters that inhabit it. The new battle system adds a unique level of chaos to keep battles constantly fresh, and exploring the world for new Pokémon never gets old.
Little Nightmares III is faithful to its predecessors while also adding interesting Co-op gameplay. The story is fun and doesn't overstay its welcome, and the co-op mechanics enhance in some areas, while detracting in others.
