Berserk Boy fits right in to the whole Inti Creates universe so well that it's hard to believe it wasn't actually developed by them.
Astro Duel 2 is a wonderful competitive multiplayer game that's full of variety; sure to entertain a couchful of spacefaring goofballs.
I had an exceptional amount of fun with HELLDIVERS 2 and will happily boot it up whenever I want to experience some frantic co-op shooting action. Throw in a superb sense of humour and oodles of rewarding unlockables and you're left with a cape-worthy offering. 🎖️
Even as a long-time fan of the franchise, Shiren the Wanderer: The Mystery Dungeon of Serpentcoil Island surpassed my expectations and it will likely remain my favourite dungeon-crawling roguelike for many years. So, settle in with an onigiri or 2 and give it a go. 🏯
I thoroughly enjoyed GUNVOLT RECORDS: Cychronicle and if you're a fan of the series like I am, you'll love every moment of it.
Ufouria: The Saga 2 is a must-play for any 2D platformer fan whether you played the original or not; it's that good and hilarious to boot.
Indie throwbacks don't get much better than Lords of Exile with its genuine presentation, constant variety, and pitch-perfect gameplay.
Dead End City is one of the best indie shoot 'em ups that I've played in a long time with its unique setup and super-tight gameplay.
The clever mix of SRPG and puzzle elements makes Captain Velvet Meteor: The Jump+ Dimensions a supremely entertaining adventure.
Nonogram and Story of Seasons fans will absolutely love what Piczle Cross: Story of Seasons has to offer as it's one impressive puzzler.
Bandle Tale: A League of Legends Story is an adorable cozy game with a long list of quests to complete with no pressure whatsoever. I just wish it had a better orientation system so I could spend less time retracing my steps and trying to manually keep track of quests.
It's impressive how long Balatro's simple gameplay can keep you entertained so be sure to play it if you enjoy a good ol' game of poker.
ABRISS - build to destroy is a rewarding and cathartic construction puzzler but one that console players may want to enjoy on PC instead.
While definitely rough around the edges, I thoroughly enjoyed Penny's Big Breakaway. There is a lot to get out of its levels whether it's a faster time, higher score, or all of its collectibles but I don't even need a specific reason to play through them again because controlling Penny is entertaining enough in and of itself. If you're looking for a fun and fast 3D platformer then look no further. 🪀
Promenade is one of those indie games that you need to have in your collection thanks to its superb gameplay and wide appeal.
Arzette: The Jewel of Faramore is a jewel indeed and a game that shouldn't be as fun as it is so I recommend it to any retro gamer.
Learning how to play Slave Zero X effectively will take a while but once you get over that hump, it provides some of the most satisfying 2D action gameplay out there. In other words, I'm very happy that they brought this IP back and look forward to Slave Zero X2.
qomp2 is so maddeningly difficult that its main campaign feels like it should be some sort of extra-hard bonus mode. It's still fun, though.
If The Mobius Machine incorporated additional unique elements and was more streamlined to navigate, it would have been a great game.
FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH takes what made REMAKE work and expands on the formula in nearly every way imaginable from its rewarding combat and exploration to its absolutely hilarious humour. As a long-time fan, I'm incredibly happy with what it has to offer.
