Skygard Arena is thoughtful, punishing, and rewarding once the systems click. Its status-driven tactics and persona/relic builds offer genuine depth, especially for players coming from tactics or MOBA backgrounds. For newcomers, early campaign spikes and limited sustain options make the first hours rougher than they need to be. With improved onboarding and a touch more access to healing/cleansing in story missions, Skygard Arena could be an easy recommendation across the board.- KeenGamer

LEGO Voyagers is a compact but powerful experience. Its heartfelt story, accessible gameplay, and stunning presentation make it one of the most touching LEGO titles ever released. While it’s short and occasionally clumsy in its controls, the emotional impact and sheer charm more than make up for it.- KeenGamer

Overall, Promise Mascot Agency is a charming and absurd experience that would fit perfectly in a Like a Dragon game. The story isn't as thrilling but the wacky world building and the characters that occupy it keep you from moving on. The gameplay may get tiring but there's still enough here for a good time. I'd recommend everyone play on hard if you want some challenge. Now, if you excuse me I've got a business to run.- KeenGamer

Coloring Voxels is a soothing, cute, and fun little paint-by-numbers game. Whilst it isn't a gaming revolution it has everything that it needs to be charming and to help you to relax after a busy day. The gameplay may be too simple for some. And the harsh truth is that some diorama pieces can get monotonous given how many layers of the same colour you can end up needing to colour in.- KeenGamer

Killing Floor 3 is a worthy sequel that upgrades everything they did well for the better. It may have a few audio bugs, lackluster story missions and some drops in frame rate when playing online with a full lobby but its addictive gameplay loop, fun arsenal of weapons and gadgets and the high replayability courtesy of the revamped perk system will keep Killing Floor 3 trucking along. Bring on the Halloween update!- KeenGamer

As far as visual novels go, Iwakura Aria is very impressive. It's immersive, addictive, and mystifying. Each character stands out on their own without overshadowing anyone, not even the titular Aria, and Ichiko serves as an excellent protagonist and storyteller. At 10-15 hours, the length of Iwakura Aria sits comfortably without feeling as if it's cut anything important out, while also not dragging its feet and feeling unnecessarily padded out. Although the story can get dark at times, it doesn't dip too far into being too uncomfortable, while still being grippingly suspenseful. Iwakura Aria feels like one of those stories that clings onto you, and you onto it, not wanting it to end and desperate to find out how it all plays out.- KeenGamer

Mafia: The Old Country is easily the best game in the Mafia series. A welcome revival to a truly underrated franchise. With a deeply engaging story and memorable characters that will carry players through the average gameplay. Returning players may find a few too many similarities to previous games, but there's still plenty of fun to be had.- KeenGamer

Death Relives is a horror experience that confuses itself for an interactive history lesson at times. It may be filled with entertaining puzzles and an enjoyable intimidating antagonist, but It sadly doesn't justify the frequent bugs and frustrating stealth mechanics. I can see the vision the developers were going for but Death Relives definitely needed some more time in the oven. Hopefully in their next venture they'll learn what worked and what didn't, and maybe leave the AI generated content behind.- KeenGamer

The Necromancer’s Tale provides a different CRPG experience that focuses on the detective aspects. It’s a good twist on the genre but it may not be for everyone. Other than the gameplay, nothing stands out but it’s great if you want a different experience.- KeenGamer

Catto's Post Office is a great game if you like cats, delivering mail, cute themes, and doing side stuff. It has an Animal Crossing feel mixed with Lake gameplay, but still with its own style. It's not a long game but it works in this case. It's just something sweet and simple to play for a short time, perhaps when you just want to chill out for a bit and play something quick and easy, yet fun at the same time.- KeenGamer

Promenade is a great wee indie title. With its simple premise and relaxing atmosphere, going around each world collecting cogs became addictive. There is enough challenge for the experts here and it’s chill enough for newcomers. With great music, colourful art style and a variety of content to complete, there is plenty to keep you occupied.- KeenGamer

The Wandering Village is a creative and addictive take on the City Builder formula that coexists perfectly with the survival genre. It may not have its story elements in the background but the world it invites us to is still a fantastic attraction. It's a challenging experience at times but a rewarding one that puts The Wandering Village as high as the Onbu's height.- KeenGamer

WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers improves the souls-like formula and adds enough to make the game hard to put down. It's fun investigating different systems and using different builds whenever you want. The learning curve is steep and the story isn't that good compared to other aspects. If you are looking for a new souls-like, pass this game up at your own peril.- KeenGamer

Back to the Dawn is a smart, content-rich RPG that encourages creative problem-solving and experimentation. With two distinct protagonists, an open structure, and a wide cast of characters, it’s a great fit for players who love choice-driven gameplay and tactical planning. While some areas (like the combat system or portrayal of female characters) could use further depth, the overall experience is thoughtful, challenging, and highly rewarding. It’s easy to get hooked on the game’s daily rhythm of planning, reacting, and discovering new paths.- KeenGamer

Enchanted by Nature is an excellent and welcome addition to the ever-growing collection of Expansion Packs for The Sims 4. It offers an abundance of activities and gameplay that will make obtaining this pack worthwhile. Those who enjoy nature-based gameplay and are looking for a new Occult and active career to play with will especially embrace it. It's hard to fault this Expansion Pack. As Fairies have been long-awaited and demanded by fans, they will hopefully not be disappointed by what Enchanted by Nature provides.- KeenGamer

Sloclap's newest football simulator is everything we've always wanted from an online football game. It lacks every annoying aspect that's been holding back the sports genre and its heavily skill-based gameplay focus strives to be the new standard, and we're all in for it. Even if it requires some more polishing here and there, with the corresponding updates REMATCH can easily become the greatest online football game of modern times.- KeenGamer

While it is its own vibrant and enjoyable game, Spray Paint Simulator feels extremely similar to Powerwash Simulator. The levels and equipment are fairly basic, and I feel as though there was missed potential for more creative and novel ideas linked to the spray painting theme. However despite its flaws, Spray Paint Simulator is still a solid addition to the simulator genre. The mindless and satisfying gameplay is ideal for switching off and zoning out, perfect for those moments when you're looking for a game which doesn't need you to pay to attention to cutscenes or puzzle solving.- KeenGamer

Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour is a crushing dissapointment given the pedigree of developer going into this. I am frankly baffled that a developer like Nintendo would think that any of this was a good idea. Slightly above average mini-games presented in a corporate wrapping that has all the appeal and flare of a wet school trip in the middle of November. I know this will seem hyperbolic, but this is probably the worst Nintendo game I have ever played.- KeenGamer

Union of Gnomes is a challenging roguelike deckbuilder that gives you a variety of strategies and options to work with. The difficulty is great and you will spend lots of time experimenting. If you can find the winning combinations and luck swings in your favour, this game can be a joy to play. Otherwise it might be best to play in short bursts.- KeenGamer

Wizard of Legend 2 presents an enjoyable roguelike experience where you combine elemental spells to create powerful combos. The magic experience is enjoyable but it doesn't stand out from other roguelikes that have come before it. This makes Wizard of Legend 2 hard to recommend when another roguelike offers something more distinctive.- KeenGamer

Batman: Arkham Shadow succeeds in being an actual game where a lot of other VR experiences are just that: experiences. Arkham Shadow allows you to embody the Dark Knight and have a proper good time fighting and sneaking your way around enemies in a way no other VR title I played has so far. While not a quintessential title in the overall Arkham experience, it is a must play for Quest 3 owners that are also Batman fans. Each gaming session will present you with a good challenge with a decent story and great immersion, leaving wanting more.- KeenGamer

Five Nights at Freddy's: Secret of the Mimic is one of the best Five Nights games in recent memory, despite its issues. It reaches highs nearly comparable to the series' heyday while never quite reaching the lows of Security Breach. It's also a good entry point for new fans, which is a rarity in this franchise.- KeenGamer

Galactic Glitch is a cleverly crafted roguelike that blends classic twin-stick shooter mechanics with smart, physics-driven gameplay and a touch of narrative intrigue. With bite-sized runs, meaningful upgrades, and room for experimentation, it’s a must-play for fans of action roguelikes looking for something both nostalgic and fresh.- KeenGamer

Spirit of the North 2 builds on the charm of the original with a larger world and more polished graphics. It's a soothing experience for those who enjoy light puzzles, environmental storytelling and walks through picturesque landscapes. However, inconsistent mechanics, a lack of direction and technical problems prevent it from being truly great. Play it if you like relaxing exploration games, minimalist storytelling, or you just want to be a pretty fox in a beautiful world. Skip it if you prefer tight gameplay, strong storytelling, or are easily frustrated by unclear mechanics and occasional bugs.- KeenGamer

Spellcaster University is a game of contradictions: chaotic yet structured, charming yet quickly tiresome. Its systems are deep, its personality undeniable—but its transition to Switch is clumsy at best. This version demands patience, sharp eyesight, and a high tolerance for fiddly menus. If you can meet those criteria, there’s a mildly entertaining time-waster hidden beneath the clutter.- KeenGamer

Remedy has successfully pulled it off again, creating another unique experience in an already established world. FBC: Firebreak offers addictive gameplay thanks to the chaotic corruptions and challenging enemies. It may not be adding too to the Remedy shared universe, but its possibly the beginning of something great.- KeenGamer

Oblivion Remastered successfully breathes new life into The Elders Scrolls IV, which is going to be great for the mature gamers that already knew about this title from the original release in 2006. Whether you beat the game back then or not, this remaster is, as of today, the best way to experience Oblivion. We still have Skyblivion to look out for, even if this remaster may have stolen some potential players from that project. However, no amount of make up and re-texturization can mask the classic Bethesda jank, which makes the game just as endearing and frustrating as the original.- KeenGamer

Planet of Lana is a great experience, only let down by a few late game puzzles. The set up was great, making Lana confront her fears and the alien invasion. The areas you visit look amazing and Furukawa’s music is sublime. Music was woven into the story, and it did well displaying the world’s backstory to proceedings. A thoroughly enjoyable game with some cool set pieces.- KeenGamer

Deck of Haunts provides a solid deckbuilding roguelite experience combined with horror you inflict. It's fun to come up with ways to prevent intruders from reaching the heart of your haunted house. There are some balance issues and that does make the experience feel repetitive quickly. But for a solid roguelite deckbuilder, Deck of Haunts delivers a successful twist on a familiar formula.- KeenGamer

If you enjoy simple gameplay with mechanics that give you the freedom to get creative, there’s a lot to love here. If you like slow-burn storytelling that’s not afraid to be both uplifting and deeply poignant, there’s definitely a lot to love here. And if you find nostalgic references about the cruel, uncaring march of time weirdly comforting… well, you might want to talk to someone. But also—you’re going to love this game. Projected Dreams caught me off guard. For such a simple game, it moved me more than I expected. And I think if you give it even half a chance, it’ll quietly touch your heart, too.- KeenGamer
