    If you’re looking for something out of the ordinary, The Black Watchmen is an excellent introduction to alternate reality games, successfully merging an engaging fictional world with real-world activities and challenging puzzles that are best solved collaboratively with other players.

    Substantially improving on the previous two installments in almost every way, the AR-K series finally finds its way in its penultimate episode.

    Despite a few narrative stumbles en route, Stairs is a short but effective scarer wrapped in some very pretty packaging.

    Nevermind represents a worthy concept and provides an unsettling atmosphere that fans of thrillers will love, but by the time you’re starting to wonder where the story is going, you’ll realize you actually completed the game twenty minutes earlier.

    SOMA is both great horror and great science fiction that stands above the competition in a crowded genre.

    Those who appreciate outrageous locales will be thrilled with Armikrog’s out-of-this-world visuals, and puzzle lovers will find plenty to entertain, but anyone looking for a smooth gameplay experience will find themselves sometimes stuck in the mud.

    The highly unpolished Dream tries to straddle the line between a puzzle-solving and exploration game, but ultimately doesn’t succeed at either.

    • 70 Critic Score
    The haunting nautical adventure from Deck13 hasn’t benefited at all from its long-delayed localization, but it’s worth a whirl for spooky game enthusiasts.

    Fran Bow is a wonderfully dark and surreal adventure that is definitely worth the price of voluntary admission.

    A passable game in a fascinating, unique sci-fi world, Cradle is fine to explore but constantly reminds you how much more it could be.

    • 50 Critic Score
    City Quest offers a pixelated trip down nostalgia lane but its uninspired sense of humor and lack of challenge make for a somewhat disappointing homage to golden era classics.

    • 60 Critic Score
    Damn Virgins is more of an uneven frat house comedy than apocalyptic blockbuster, but its heart is in the right place and its puzzle foundations are sound.

    Road to Gehenna is a worthy extension of The Talos Principle, adding more of the brilliant puzzles and clever storytelling that helped the original stand out from the pack.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Why Am I Dead at Sea is a solid and complex supernatural whodunit, recommended for those who don’t mind plenty of reading and old-school production values.

    MechaNika is a unique concoction of childlike presentation and mature content that doesn’t seem to know which audience it’s trying to please, and never quite manages to fulfill its own evident potential.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The Trace is a brief and easy but fun exploration-filled murder mystery that will have you engaged from beginning to end.

    Appropriately, Bunker feels like a time capsule from the ‘90s. Even if the humour doesn’t always hit home, the puzzles may entice you back in(to) the USSR.

    It’s a bummer that a game that looks as good, and is as well-designed and polished as Alum, misses the boat on story so badly.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Anna’s Quest is an enchanting mélange of superb production quality, engaging gameplay, and a poignant saga of heart and heartbreak that will linger with you long after the adventure is over.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Her Story’s searchable video database is a unique and compelling way of telling its interactive story, making it worth the fairly short trip to the police station.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    It raises some interesting questions, but short of whiling away an hour in a doctor’s waiting room somewhere, I see little reason to recommend Rituals for any actual fun.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    While there are plenty of familiar puzzles to keep players occupied, Subject 13‘s mediocre plot and characterization can’t elevate the experience to the well-rounded adventure it had the potential to be.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It creates a great atmosphere, but the overall Homesick experience ultimately feels a bit threadbare.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Sea of Darkness is a fine entry in the Nancy Drew pantheon, relying on the series’ strengths of character development, exploration, and writing.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Despite some solid production values, Morningstar: Descent to Deadrock is just too short and uninspired to strongly recommend.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Technobabylon is a beautiful, compelling game that fans of the cyberpunk genre will devour, as long as you don’t mind a bit of story confusion along the way.
    • 39 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    House of Caravan successfully builds an eerie atmosphere of darkness, but the bare-bones story and lack of character empathy largely squander the opportunity.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    The Inquisitor loses its way through The Village with a poorly designed, technically weak sequel that fails to capitalise on the strengths of its brazen story and brutal, brilliant title character.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A cast of interesting characters provides the focal point for Quasar, a simple sci-fi adventure that is over all too soon.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The Perils of Man is a well-constructed, compelling adventure full of mechanical contraptions, scientific hubris, impending disaster, and singular courage.
