Mewgenics is an eclectic, strategy-filled experience. I’ve never played a game that combines cat breeding with tactical, turn-based battles like this. It was worth the wait.

While it can be repetitive and the art style is a little generic, Temirana: The Lucky Princess and the Tragic Knights shines when it comes to world-building and the distinct storylines through each route of gameplay.

Craftlings is charming in many ways, from its retro style to its complex systems. However, it can be pretty frustrating to learn how everything works.

Cozy Caravan is one of the most unique experiences I've had, and it's elevated even further by the evident love the 5 Lives Studios pours into it.

Hello Kitty Island Adventure brings all the great features of mobile games while leaving behind FOMO, and it makes it one of the most cosy titles you can find on Steam!

The Perfect Pencil is a great metroidvania full of exploration, a rich story, and odd, hand-drawn characters that give the game a surreal feel you need to experience for yourself.

I Hate This Place has good ideas, but its execution misses the mark. A lacklustre story, not enough horror, and disjointed mechanics likely won’t appeal to survival horror fans.

Cairn is just really nice to play, with an emotionally gripping story and beautiful sights. You will struggle and get frustrated, but you will overcome whatever is in your way.

Don’t Stop, Girlypop! was unfortunately a miss for me, but it shows clear potential that some post-launch care could help it reach.

Steel Century Groove has fun mech dance battles, but the story and non-battle sections leave a lot to be desired and feel fairly bland.

Core Keeper is a labour of love that continues to improve with each update, with Void & Voltage adding more for new and old players alike.

Streetdog BMX is just a polished arcade-style BMX game that will teach and challenge you in every aspect. Although the controls may take getting used to, you’ll find an incredibly fun game here.

There’s nothing wrong with Kinsfolk, and the visuals and story are worth experiencing, but it’s brief, and there’s no reason to come back once you’re done.

Slick gameplay, stylish visuals and an interesting narrative with a timeless underlying theme of cooperation, respect, and understanding of each other’s points of view.

While Cozyrama is perfect for die-hard decorators, those looking for a cosy time may find that this game feels more like art software than a game. If you want to create dioramas, great, but if you want an immersive experience, you may be left wanting more.

A truly engrossing RPG, The Legend of Heroes: Trails beyond the Horizon is the best game in the Calvard arc yet and a must-play for series fans.

What else can you expect from Clicker Climber: Reverse Pachinko but snowballing numbers and intense difficulty that will keep you playing for hours. Pachinko has never been so addictive without losing or earning real money.

Bus World is made up of scenarios where the bus driver is the hero society needs when a nuclear plant melts down in your town, a volcano erupts during a tour of Iceland, or another eruption results in a beach town getting a wet slap from Poseidon.

A mish-mash of genres that blend well and give you a lot to do for the price of free.

INAZUMA ELEVEN: Victory Road may have been years in the making, but it was absolutely worth the wait. A massive game with plenty to do, and one fans of the franchise absolutely have to play.

A fun, if flawed, hack-and-slash roguelike with very randomised, very long runs.

Tackle for Loss is a lot more challenging than you may expect, but gets better as you learn new abilities. The story is crazy as it’s hard to tell what the truth is.

Hero Seekers is a unique turn-based RPG with an interesting story and a strategic battle system that lets you plan each move. It feels worthy of your time!

CASSETTE BOY can change how you view the world with its mechanics and puzzles, but is held back by some odd and frustrating design decisions.

KABUKI FIRE is a chaotic on-rails shooter that challenges you to achieve the highest score possible within seven minutes. Be prepared to restart often, as it is tough!

Kotama and Academy Citadel is a good metroidvania with stylish combat and an exciting world to explore. However, you may encounter some issues that can make your Caramel Star campaign more of a pain than it should.

HELL OF FEAR: Mind Breach offers some fun gameplay, but the repetitive nature and weak gunplay make the initial experience more of a chore than it should be.

This Ain’t Even Poker, Ya Joker is a card-clicking game where you flip cards to earn enough gold to escape the carnival, mostly by watching everything play out automatically.
