To a T may seem like a totally ridiculous video game in concept, but it has a lot of heart, fun exploration, and some seriously catchy songs.

Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo lived up to all my expectations, and is one of the very best Metroidvanias I've ever played.

PaperKlay is a charming 3D platformer with gorgeous papercraft visuals, and it's full of those delicious collectibles you just have to grab.

Ghost Frequency is the scariest game I've played in an incredibly long time, so turn off the lights and get ready to scream already.

Despite some obvious influences, Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon manages to be an excellent action RPG with an interesting, dark world to explore.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown is an exciting take on the turn-based genre, aiming for quick and hard-hitting combat rather than the familiar and more methodical approach.

Out of Sight might not be the scariest of games, but it does offer some great set pieces and a fresh take on the genre.

Survive the Fall combines some of the best bits of two of my favourite group survival games of the last ten years to impressive effect.

Trident's Tale is a fun adventure game that offers the freedom to explore at your own pace, alongside an exciting story with plenty of loveable characters.

Monster Train 2 will be the new obsession for all of you deck building fans, with so many build options and limitless replayability.

Despite it being released in 2002, Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny has some cool new features, and is still enjoyable to play in the current gaming climate.

As an old-school adventure game Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer works, but you'll need to bear with some of its quirks.

Sea of Stars: Throes of the Watchmaker adds an extra campaign that somehow surpasses the base game, and it won't cost you a penny.

Blades of Fire has some elements that feel original and compelling, but it ultimately falls short of the bar set by other AA adventure games of recent years.

Deliver At All Costs is a joyous throwback to the dafter years of our great hobby, and is full of ridiculous missions and smashable buildings.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate is a fun and engaging game to play when you just want something to get lost in and not really think about.

While Roadcraft can slow to a crawl at times and has moments of frustration because of it, it’s still a lot of fun bringing civilisation back to these battered biomes.

Pivot of Hearts is a lovely dating sim with wonderful queer and poly options, but the writing lets the experience down somewhat.

Into the Restless Ruins effortlessly combines dungeon building and dungeon crawling into a Roguelike package that I couldn't put down.

Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade is one of the finest roguelike action-RPGs out there, with fluid combat, plenty of upgrades, and some incredible visuals.

Despite a couple of duds in Capcom Fighting Collection 2, there is so much good stuff on offer here and a couple of legit all-timers.

While The Precinct can be a little rough around the edges, Fallen Tree Games has done a solid job of making the job of a police officer a lot of fun.

Grandma, No! is a silly and destructive physics game, but one that punches down with its comedy and ends before it really warms up.

In all the ways that matter, Doom: The Dark Ages is a pure power fantasy, loading you up with outlandish weaponry and lethal powers and unleashing you on the horde.

Creature Keeper is a creature collection game with some wonderful ideas, but its underwhelming combat and monster designs make it a tough sell.

The Midnight Walk is one of the best games of 2025. It looks so wonderful, has excellent sound design, and a story that keeps you gripped all the time.

Offering appeal to both fans of deck builders and city management, Kaya's Prophecy is a fun but short blast with a cute art style that’s more than deserving of your time.

Empyreal is fun in short bursts, but offers little to stand out or really pull you into its story and universe.
