    Sammy Jukes: Twin Lakes is a nice and cosy mystery to solve on a rainy day, but don’t expect something more complex than that.

    Tenebris Pictura’s creative puzzles and novel psychic abilities are held back by frequent design flaws and a lack of atmosphere. Fans of anything puzzly and occult will find plenty to enjoy here, but there are many more refined alternatives out there.

    It looks good, it feels good, but a lot of this game doesn’t quite sit well with me. Lost Sea is a slow-starting but otherwise functional Roguelike that I’d definitely recommend – just remember that NPC abuse is wrong.

    Reigns Beyond is a comedic swiping narrative title that is fun to play, but I wish there was more depth to the music segments of the game.

    Lion Quest’s ingenuity isn’t enough to garner a gold medal, but varied gameplay provides a few hours of challenging entertainment.

    A fun, casual arcade racer that has a decent chunk of a career mode to keep you busy with some fun aspects, let down by wonky AI and being placed into the wrong series of games making it really hard to recommend to either demographic of casual race fans or sim racers.

    There's enough on display here that, if you were a big fan of Kirby's Epic Yarn, you could get at least get a couple more hours of entertainment out of it. However, assuming you’re not a big fan, than I would suggest waiting for something with a bit more substance to come out, which should be around Metroid Prime 4’s release.

    Bakery Simulator lets you experience all the work that goes into running a bakery all on your own without the dishes. The controls can get very frustrating when racing against the clock to get the order out!

    The Invincible is a visually impressive game of exploration, philosophy, and consequences. The characters, their choices and struggles will pull you in, while the intrigue and mystery will keep you around. Just beware of some unfortunate bugs.

    MiceGard is an enjoyable game that has you controlling a group of Viking mice as a unit to fight off frogs that are attacking their village. There are some text issues, but it’s a minor annoyance when playing.

    A story packed adventure which spans across the USA, with some wonderfully written stories, a fantastic soundtrack, and some sublime voice acting. However, Where the Water Tastes Like Wine is let down by a map that is too large often resulting in a lot of time spent walking, doing nothing.

    Jumanji Wild Adventures is an entertaining action-adventure title that is faithful to the movies it’s based on. It has some issues but is still entertaining to play, even when you aren’t a kid.

    An engrossing combat system and numerous novel gameplay mechanics save what would have otherwise been merely a passable Dark Souls tribute from total mediocrity. Sadly, there’s still too much harming the experience to justify a wholehearted recommendation. It ain’t Souls and it certainly ain’t polished, but it's not terrible either.

    A nice slice of life visual novel with some slightly dark undertones. If you're interested in following this group of Chuutsosu as they figure out their lot in life, it's worth a look.

    Earth Atlantis takes the world its built and makes us appreciate it for every detail. Despite some gameplay issues, this title does the best it can to provide players with a memorable experience.

    RoboCop: Rogue City - Unfinished Business is a lot of fun. I honestly did want more RoboCop, and that’s exactly what I got. Sure, you don’t get to ticket cars this time, but you do get to resolve disputes between neighbours and tell punks to make your day! I just wish that it didn’t have so many major issues.

    Nadir: A Grimdark Deckbuilder seems like the developers wanted to make a roguelike and then decided to make a story-focused game halfway through without ever following through on that desire. If Black Eye Games had fixed some of this game’s glaring issues, we could’ve had something cool here, but there are still much better options out there.

    Super Rad Raygun is not what you would call addicting, simple silly fun inspired by a simple silly time in video game history. Any classic gamer would love this title and would even be a great way to introduce new gamers to what it used to be like for us old people. I would easily play again between AAA releases.

    Earthlock: Festival of Magic shows that the JRPGs aren’t games of a bygone era. It’s got it’s issues, but it’s still a fun game if you’re a fan of the genre. Hopefully, the developers will have the funds and resources in the future to deliver a more fleshed out experience, but for now, this game is just fine.

    Deadbeat Heroes is a solid brawler with good humour and a well-directed art style. While the execution of some of the combat elements interrupt the flow of said combat it is still a fun game to play. With a small degree of tweaking to the combat mechanics, this title could go from being an average brawler to an amazing one. The developers are supporting the game and recently released a patch in direct response to player feedback, so my fingers are crossed that they will continue to support the game and make Deadbeat Heroes a title worth remembering.

    The patch system is fun to mess around with as well, but it can help with the tediousness and make you feel weak because of the randomized nature. The final fight was the best part of the forgettable journey, but if you don’t have the right patches, Geodia will be doomed.

    Despite a lack of variety in modes, Wild Card Football’s on-field action is consistently frantic and enjoyable. The Wild Cards can create some truly great moments, but those looking for a large amount of single-player content will be left disappointed.

    Ubisoft have done well with this game but if you get frustrated easily I would maybe wait till this game has had a few more updates first before playing it.

    A competent if flawed JRPG that has a unique combat system undermined by poor localisation as well as just dull implementation. If you are after a Persona-like RPG you might get some enjoyment from this, but it’s pretty generic fare.

    Far Cry 6 is two steps forward and a step back. The characters are brilliant, as is the work put into bringing them to life. Sadly, the game continues to be bogged down by more pointless content. The epitome of ‘less is more’.

    Riot: Civil Unrest has the look and feel a good RTS with entertaining yet challenging gameplay sections, but it all feels a bit weird when considering a) these sections are based on real events, and b) that the gameplay is fun and entertaining, but really only when you play as the protesters.

    It's a very short and simple experience, as the Steam page suggests, but it's definitely worth the time if you like the idea of cleaning an alien ocean to help the fishies out.

    Rauniot is a short but tense puzzle adventure with a great mix of charm and unease. While the language barrier may affect your experience, the short length and interesting puzzles are worth having a look at. Doubly so if you speak the language. TORILLE!

    The Devil's Daughter is a collection of minigames sewn together with a very questionable story, but that manages to keep the player amused for the duration of the game. Particularly given the atmosphere crafted in every detail of London and the deduction mechanics, the game will often make you feel like Sherlock.

    Both a tranquil and amusing game that has its moment of natural charm in certain gameplay and narrative elements, but falls short when that charm feels forced. The lack of quality in its visuals and quest lines hinder it from being a great game, but still worth a look for younger audiences.
