Valor Mortis has become a new favorite of mine. While the game does have its flaws, mostly in the visual clarity of enemy attacks, the problems are so minuscule that they didn’t affect my enjoyment. An inspired setting, a unique twist on the formula, and some incredible body horror make...
Though the game is incredibly linear, guiding you carefully and directly through its narrative, Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy is an experience worth being guided through. What surprised me most was how fast, fun, and deadly the game’s combat felt, making every encounter an exhilarating dance that could end just...
Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault has come a long way from its original Early Access state, and I found myself appreciating it a lot more thanks to the various improvements and added features.

Enshrouded
Enshrouded is an exemplary entry into its genre, seamlessly combining survival crafting mechanics with ARPG exploration and progression and, in my humble opinion, delivering the best of both. While you can absolutely play the game solo, it’s even more fun with friends, scaling the adventure to your group rather than...
Alpha Nomos can be a little repetitive at times, and it can feel as though there isn’t an abundance of content to unlock, but it still remains a fairly fun and distinctly creative experience throughout. The game’s unique mix of rhythm-game mechanics and roguelike progression, paired with its fun story...
Forever Ago moved me in ways that are hard to describe: the game’s themes of loss, regret, hope, and courage resonate deeply and are presented through a phenomenal cast of voice talent. If narrative-driven experiences are your thing, this is a title you absolutely cannot afford to miss out on.
Slayblade was clearly built on a vision, and that vision was executed decently. However, the game left me wanting, feeling unnecessarily short, barren, and repetitive. You quickly grasp everything the game has to offer within the first 20 minutes, and it does little to keep you playing after that.
Truckful‘s flow might be interrupted by frequent loading screens, but it is otherwise a pretty fun, relaxing physics-puzzle about driving through a beautiful countryside delivering packages. That is, until sudden, unexpected but much-appreciated horror elements show up, giving the game a unique and threatening element not present in similar titles.
Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival gives me new hope for horror movie franchises in the video game space, and truly is a superb single-player horror game that stands alongside the best in its genre. The story is exquisite, the gameplay is solid, and the imagery is visceral, never pulling its punches...
Mexican Ninja has some readability issues in combat, but it makes up for it with fast-paced action, crass-but-clever writing, and an overall incredible setting. You won’t be disappointed by this all-around solid entry into the genre.
Doloc Town can feel slow and doesn’t always communicate its concepts to the player, but it is still a great entry into the farming sim genre, offering much-needed originality in both its setting and mechanics.
If you’re looking for a fun way to shut your brain off for an hour or two, Doggy Don’t Care is a fine way to do it, offering a short but chaos-filled adventure where you terrorize your owner’s home, explore new places, and pee on the carpet.
