Mindseize Review

This metroidvania has great 2D graphics, but is marred by an overplayed storyline, bland enemies, and serious bugs. 

Metroidvania, 2D

Curse of the Dead Gods Early Access Review

Curse of the Dead Gods is a colorful, adaptive, and fresh take on a jungle temple environment where a sole player is on a journey full of enemies, treasures, and pain.

Half Past Fate Review

Half Past Fate is really fun. It has a consistent plotline, several love stories, and a fair bit of information about tea. Pair all of that with the Animal House ending (where they tell you what happens to everyone) makes for some great gameplay.

Orangeblood Review

Dropping the player into a uniquely vibrant and charmingly bad-mannered game, Orangeblood manages to give a memorable RPG experience in spite of its conventional gameplay.

Half-Life: Alyx

While it doesn’t break the mold, Half-Life: Alyx provides a polished, AAA VR experience.

Hearts of Iron IV: La Résistance Review

La Résistance is an overpriced package of underwhelming mechanics and bloated focus trees. You’d do best to avoid this expansion until it goes on sale.

DOOM Eternal Review

DOOM Eternal is a title that needs little introduction but deserves a lot of praise. Here, Slayers will feel right at home jumping, dashing, smashing, blasting, and of course exploding through the legions of Hell. While DOOM Eternal does focus more on story than the previous 2016 installment, it feels and operates on a much higher frequency of fun.

Atelier Shallie: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea DX Review

Though you might miss some of the newer mechanics of the series in this PC port, the polish, intriguing cast of characters, and milestones to look forward to make this title worth picking up.

Foregone Review

Boasting unique visuals and intriguing mythos surrounding the narrative. Foregone is something fresh in the 2D platforming sub-genre. However, while it’s gameplay is strong enough, it might just be a bit too punishingly unfair of a Metroidvania in an already punishingly difficult style of game.

While a serviceable dungeon crawler, the lack of polish keeps Conglomerate 451 from being truly engaging.

The Suicide of Rachel Foster Review

Though the atmosphere is beautiful and the sound design is immersively eerie, plot holes and disturbingly accepted character choices greatly hinder this walking simulator.

Of Evil and Darkness Review

Though this visual novel has an interesting narrative, it is hindered by a lack of impactful choices, a lack of options, and branching errors that take you out of the story.
