    Uno
    Ultimately, if you enjoy Uno then you’ll probably enjoy this version of it.

    Typoman: Revised
    Despite having cool atmosphere and unique ideas, Typoman: Revised‘s puzzles and platforming leave a lot to be desired.

    The Descendant: Episode 3: What Lies Beneath
    What Lies Beneath features frustrating puzzles, confusing voice actor swaps, and all around unnecessary changes – but still manages to squeeze in a bit of interesting storytelling.

    Land It!
    Land It! is going to give you a solid 10-12 hours game time in the career mode and then endless hours of challenging gameplay in the Endless mode.

    Tricky Towers
    If you’re a Plus member and you haven’t yet downloaded this fantastic party game, I highly recommend that you do so quickly. Even if you’re not a Plus member, this game is certainly worthwhile if you have some friends that fancy a solid physics-based puzzle game.

    Bohemian Killing
    It’s a short experience end to end which sprouted from a solid idea, but whose ambition far exceeded the capabilities of the developers. Maybe consider it if it’s extremely heavily on sale, but for it’s current price point you’d be much better served buying a good book.

    Green Game: TimeSwapper
    Green Game: TimeSwapper fails to introduce anything new, in terms of gameplay, to help differentiate itself from being just another generic puzzle game.
    • 87 Metascore

    Kingdom: New Lands
    For those who want clear guidelines on how to progress, many will find the obfuscation and mystery of Kingdom tiring after a while. For those who want to know how to get platinum gamerscore, or how to beat the game in the quickest way possible, again, Kingdom will stubbornly refuse to comply with those needs.

    Blade Ballet
    Despite the lack of originality on display, each mode is quite a bit of fun. Bringing a few friends over and throwing on a game of Blade Ballet is far from a bad idea. Actually, I dare say it would be a fine choice.

    No Man's Sky
    Speaking as a fan of a more relaxed paced games, as an owner and backer of both Elite: Dangerous and Star Citizen and as a wannabe Minecraft survival-mode architect, I find it incredibly easy to look past No Man’s Sky’s admittedly rough exterior and see the brightly shining diamond beneath and I think I’m going to playing it for a long time.

    Near Death
    Everything from the plot to the in-game models to the user interface is uncomplicated and utilitarian. The developers seem to have focused on creating an immersive Antarctic setting that feels brutal and imposing, and to that respect, they succeeded.

    Renowned Explorers: More To Explore
    Even with a few minor missteps Renowned Explorers: More to Explore improves on an already spectacular game. By itself Renowned Explorers had few weak points mainly with its eventual, repetition of content. In More to Explore this is fixed while adding the campfire, which provides even more wacky adventures and events for the already charismatic characters to go through.

    Anode
    That said, Anode‘s incredibly low price alone makes this a recommended purchase for all Xbox One owners. When you also add in the crisp visuals and variety of great game modes it’s enough to raise it above many similar efforts out there.

    Kelvin and the Infamous Machine
    If you prefer more laid-back puzzle games, maybe still give Kelvin a chance but bring a friend. Two heads are better than one after all and you definitely won’t regret it.

    Slain: Back from Hell
    Does Back From Hell “redeem” the initial disappointing release? In my eyes, absolutely. Like a medieval sinner turned to a life of holy demon-slaying knighthood, it claws its way back into the light over a pile of steaming gore-matted corpses. And if that’s not metal, I don’t know what is.

    Little King's Story
    If you missed out on the game’s original release or the Vita version, New Little King’s Story, the PC version is the perfect opportunity to catch up on this too often overlooked little gem.

    Fairy Fencer F: Advent Dark Force
    Considering all that it has to offer, Fairy Fencer F: Advent Dark Force is probably the best JRPG currently available on the PS4 (although stiff competition is incoming)
    • 67 Metascore

    Brut@l
    It may not constantly beckon you back, but when you do dive in you’ll realise it is one of the better dungeon crawlers out right now. It’s bursting at the seems with love for this genre, and some of that might just rub off on you after a while.

    Muv-Luv
    If you’re willing to invest the time in three lengthy visual novels, finish these two off early, so you can enjoy what is touted as a great third entry (which I’m excited to see) released later this year.

    Lovely Planet Arcade
    Lovely Planet Arcade is a twitch shooter that will kick your butt, pat your wounds, and give you butterfly kisses that turn into literal butterflies.

    Obliteracers
    While you probably won’t play it on your own for very long due to the lack of matchmaking and career mode challenges, Obliteracers makes for a fairly entertaining experience when played in local multiplayer.

    Shiren the Wanderer: The Tower of Fortune and the Dice of Fate
    Those who put in the time will be rewarded with deeply strategic gameplay, beautiful environments and a surprisingly insightful story.

    Chambara
    Offering no single-player or online options, team ok’s love letter to the 90s yearns for the day when couch co-op reigned supreme.

    Hyperspace Invaders II: Pixel Edition
    If you liked Space Invaders but find it to be a bit too “retro”, then Hyperspace Invaders II could well be the perfect game for your pixel-destroying frenzy.

    Batman: The Telltale Series - Episode 1: Realm of Shadows
    It’s easy to say that Batman: The Telltale Series Episode 1 – Realm of Shadows is one of Telltale’s best first episodes yet.

    Riptide GP: Renegade
    Similar to a good RPG, any time spent with Riptide GP: Renegade is not wasted, even in defeat.

    Road to Ballhalla
    It is a shame that every level is so well done and all required so much work, in terms of visual and audio presentation, that it means there are so few levels overall.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Hyper Light Drifter
    The trouble with Hyper Light Drifter is that it’s frequently just too obscure and too difficult to truly enjoy.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Dungeon Punks
    The best word I can use is probably ‘clunky’, but putting it rather bluntly, Dungeon Punks controls as well as a dead horse.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Krai Mira
    If you’re a more casual RPG player, there are likely enough issues to be prohibitive. Altogether, though, if Krai Mira looks like something you would enjoy, there’s a good chance that you will. It’s no masterwork, but Krai Mira has a solid foundation, and with continued support and updates, has promise. In its current state, however, its experience still feels unfinished.
