More House Party is never a bad thing, and this is certainly true with House Party - Doja Cat Expansion Pack, though perhaps skip it and finish playing the main stories first before jumping into this one.

Claire de Lune is a great take on the genre, but sadly is somewhat marred by a couple of small but consistent flaws.

A challenging racing simulator that may lack impressive visuals and a variety of content, but makes up for it by having a fantastic physics system, opponents that will push you to your limit, and a genuine sense of speed.

Swarm Grinder is a good time but it does lack a little variety. You have to keep yourself engaged all throughout and there’s plenty to do, but prepare for an actual grind to victory.

A satisfying take on the Commandos genre. Partisans 1941 allows players to walk through the brutality of the Second World War, searching for a beacon of hope on the other side.

An intriguing, story and dialogue driven game that gives us a new look through the mind's eye of Bruce Wayne and gives us the chance to groom The Batman into the crime fighter we want him to be.

Unfortunately the PC port problems hinders the enjoyment on computer.

Spellspire is a game that knows what it is, and doesn’t aim for the stars. It’s a more than enjoyable experience worth the price tag. Those looking for a fun little game to play during downtime, or even something to distract the kids, can’t go far wrong here.

A satisfying colony-building sandbox with a lot of replayability that suffers from a lack of polish in the UI. A great aesthetic and quirky sci-fi take on the genre mean there is a lot to like here, it just takes a little digging to get there.
