Evolving naturally from the experiences of Spider-Man and Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Spider-Man 2 offers an experience with a bigger NYC, a bigger story with bigger stakes, and bigger, deadlier foes than ever before.
Good for genre veterans and even better for newbies, Steamworld Build is a steamlined, silly, and smooth city-builder that's fun from the first foundation block to the last keystone.
The Pale Reach is as good a reason as any to dip back into one of the best indie games of the year, but it falters in a lack of content, interesting narrative, and scares.
Worldless is a metroidvania by Noname studio set at the beginning of time, as two factions, light and dark, red and blue, circle and diamond fight and kill each other for an unknown reason. You just fight. That’s not me being flippant, either. The game implies that neither side quite...

Spiral Bound Interactive’s You Will Die Here Tonight is a retro psychological horror game that takes clear inspiration from Capcom’s Resident Evil – right down to the mansion setting, medicinal plants and smashing vases and boxes for loot.
As a walking simulator, what The Invincible lacks in gameplay it more than makes up for in its audio and visual design and an utterly captivating storyline that perfectly balances between the wonders of space and its most horrifying possibilities.
Laika: Aged Through Blood is a rather unique metroidvania experience that scores with very satisfying motorbike traversal, and a melancholic atmosphere that's supported by one of the best soundtracks of the year.
