Despite never watching The Smurfs, I absolutely loved the game! It’s fun, it’s gorgeous, and it’s humorous.

Witness the catastrophic events that transpire over the course of Donut County as you wreak havoc by taking control of BK’s all-devouring hole in a surprisingly enjoyable title I didn’t expect to love this much.

Bunny Park is a good game to pick up if you just want to sink some hours into a relaxing decor game, especially if you don’t mind having only a few options in furniture.

Climbing to the peak in Jusant may sound like a boring gameplay loop, but for those looking for a meditative and genuinely enjoyable experience, it's anything but.

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is a fantastic addition to the world James Cameron brought to life in the films. If you love the Na’vi and Pandora, you won’t be disappointed with this one.

A Highland Song is just as unique and nuanced as I had hoped, and the developer did an outstanding job at bringing a wild sense of adventure and emotion to a 2D title.

While it shows promise and has a novel concept, its lack of polish and short play length detract from the sexy monster girl’s wiles. And ample bosom.

This is a terrible piece of cheap shovelware with no realism, no entertainment value, and nothing to make it worth buying.

It's always a pleasure to experience such a well-crafted, lighthearted game, and if that's what you're in the mood for, then get your wallet ready.

Make Way is the perfect mix of a racing and building game that allows you to be creative while having a great time playing the resulting course together.

The Elephant Collection rampages onto a new system (and potential fanbase) while also keeping its charm from all these years.

Orbitect is a decently fun roguelite that you can lose some time in, but there are a few annoyances and less-than-great game design decisions that don’t make me want to play more than necessary.

Extremely Powerful Capybaras is a great roguelike bullet-hell game with cute characters and a fun battle system. The lack of tutorials and some bugs hinder it.

Murder is Game Over is a short murder mystery RPG-style game. There really isn’t much deduction to be found here, especially since the dog will find all the clues.

Dragon Bobby - The Story of a Life isn't a bad game, but it's a tad simple and uninspiring in some areas. Still, despite this, it's an impressive feat for a one-person development team.

Follow a hideous and tormented nobleman through a slew of very creative and inventive puzzle levels that, quite frankly, everyone should try — Ugly is a hidden masterpiece that I'm confident many will find something to love in.

Short and sweet, The Pale Reach offers the perfect excuse to return to the world of DREDGE. And as one of the best indie titles of the year, how could anyone refuse?

A fast-paced and exciting hell shooter, held back by some minor design decisions.

Phantom Rose 2 Sapphire is a challenging roguelike deck-battling game that makes you think and strategise before attacking. With nice visuals, a fun soundtrack, and multiple modes to check out, you may want to check this one out.

If you're not put off by heavy themes, I couldn't suggest this title more; Bramble: The Mountain King is one of the few titles of this genre I wish I had played sooner.

A small, simple collection of games, VISCO Collection features titles that mostly hold well. Despite one or two games not being that impressive, and a lack of bonus content, this is a decent ode to an unsung game developer.

Multiple updates since leaving Early Access have still resulted in a game that barely squeezes past “mediocre” in the fun department, and should have probably not left it.

Colour in a world with FIND ALL, a black-and-white hidden object title that I enjoyed too much, though I do wish it had been just a tad longer.

Despite its shortcomings, SteamWorld Build is a delightful foray into the world of robot cowboys, and there’s a bit of fun to be had with the building and dungeon crawling, even if the tinge of innovation is a little muted.

A worthwhile DLC that gives this already deep survival title more content to play around with. These may be hostile worlds, but now your survivors can relax, and let the robots make things a little bit safer.

Though I genuinely loved my time with Venba, I could not swallow the steep asking price for the short, one-hour experience that you will have. It's a great, tear-jerking story that immigrants will resonate with, but there isn't enough here to justify the entry fee.

Bem Feito had me hooked on the premise and gameplay, but unfortunately, it feels like it lacks a proper conclusion. After three hours and nearly 100% of the achievements, I felt I was barely halfway there.

Hero Survival is a worthy addition to the rogue-like shoot-em-up genre that has a lot of unique touches to make it feel different and addictive to play.
