Cairn

9.5/10

Cairn is just really nice to play, with an emotionally gripping story and beautiful sights. You will struggle and get frustrated, but you will overcome whatever is in your way.

I Hate this Place

4.5/10

I Hate This Place has good ideas, but its execution misses the mark. A lacklustre story, not enough horror, and disjointed mechanics likely won’t appeal to survival horror fans.

Core Keeper

9/10

Core Keeper is a labour of love that continues to improve with each update, with Void & Voltage adding more for new and old players alike.

Steel Century Groove

6.5/10

Steel Century Groove has fun mech dance battles, but the story and non-battle sections leave a lot to be desired and feel fairly bland.

Hotel Barcelona

9/10

Slick gameplay, stylish visuals and an interesting narrative with a timeless underlying theme of cooperation, respect, and understanding of each other’s points of view.

Arknights: Endfield

8/10

A mish-mash of genres that blend well and give you a lot to do for the price of free.

Full Metal Schoolgirl

6.5/10

A fun, if flawed, hack-and-slash roguelike with very randomised, very long runs.

Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road

9/10

INAZUMA ELEVEN: Victory Road may have been years in the making, but it was absolutely worth the wait. A massive game with plenty to do, and one fans of the franchise absolutely have to play.

Cassette Boy

6.5/10

CASSETTE BOY can change how you view the world with its mechanics and puzzles, but is held back by some odd and frustrating design decisions.

Kentum

7/10

Kentum has an interesting gameplay loop and offers something pretty unique; however, automating everything comes with its own downsides in the late game.

Morsels

7/10

Morsels is a colourful yet gritty title where you play as a mouse trying to take down a league of evil cats. It doesn’t hold your hand, making it a fairly challenging experience.

Voidtrain

8/10

There are some minor issues, but Voidtrain is an adventure that you should experience.
