Conglomerate 451 Early Access Review

Conglomerate 451 is an Early Access title, and it shows. While I didn't encounter anything horribly game-breaking in the current build, many systems are not yet implemented and some balance issues should be addressed before the final release.

Early Access, Cyberpunk, RPG, Dungeon Crawler

Pixel Noir Early Access Review

Pixel Noir attempts to bring the best mechanics from the golden age of JRPGs and combine them with a gritty, noir atmosphere. It achieves uneven success with its mashup of interesting ideas, making it rough around the edges, but indie to its core

Noir, Pixel Graphics, Early Access, RPG

Atelier Lulua ~The Scion of Arland~ Review

With dozens of hours of enjoyable gameplay, this polished title will appeal to JRPG enthusiasts and Atelier fans alike. 

Sequel, Anime, JRPG, Female Protagonist, Crafting, Fantasy, TurnBased

Esports Life Tycoon Early Access Review

In its current state, nobody could really enjoy Esports Life Tycoon. Here’s to hoping that, as it moves through Early Access, things change.

Simulation, Early Access

The Sinking City Early Access Review

A challenging detective experience with interesting gameplay mechanics that will appeal to horror fans, but is hindered by wonky controls, loading screens, and an empty world.

Lovecraftian, Early Access, Gore, Violent, Horror, Detective, Open World, Noir, Atmospheric

Vambrace: Cold Soul Review

A relentless roguelite with a solid foundation. Beautiful but grindy, it lacks a complex story, deep characters, and emotional impact.

RPG, Female Protagonist, Dark Fantasy, Roguelite, Fantasy, TurnBased, Dungeon Crawler, Demons, Difficult, Roguelike

An entertaining simulator that allows you to cook to your heart’s content without the real-life mess.

SUPER DRAGON BALL HEROES WORLD MISSION Review

While innocuous and stable, this microtransaction-less gacha game will only really appeal Dragonball superfans and gacha enthusiasts.

Card Game, Anime, Multiplayer, Fighting

Risk of Rain 2 Early Access Review

If you’re into roguelikes, bullet-hell, or third-person shooter games, this is a can’t-miss title. Risk of Rain 2 has just as much style as it does mechanical polish.

Early Access, Roguelike, Coop, Multiplayer, ThirdPerson Shooter, Online Coop, Roguelite, Loot, Survival, Difficult, Bullet Hell, Third Person, Singleplayer, SciFi, Local Coop

American Fugitive Review

Those that enjoy sandbox “chaos simulators” will do well to check out American Fugitive. While the story is somewhat predictable and abrupt, it presents an overall enjoyable experience.

Swag and Sorcery Review

A resource management game that’s easy to pick up and doesn’t take a lot of thought to play, but unfortunately lacks depth and becomes stale after a minimal amount of time spent with it.

Pixel Graphics, RPG, Singleplayer, 2D, Casual, Management, Clicker, Simulation, Crafting, Comedy, Funny

Layers of Fear 2 Review

A superbly polished visual feast as well as a jumpscare-laden walking simulator that takes a few steps back as a sequel, rather than forward.
