Rhythm Sprout is a fun but tough rhythmical title that’ll push you to your limits. This short demo gives you an insight into what to expect upon full release. I can’t wait to take on the final product even if I risk losing my cool and my sanity

Phasmophobia is a truly spectacular horror title. This Early Access game is brilliant when you tackle it alone. However, if you have like-minded friends, it is phenomenal. This is one horror game that you do not want to miss. [Early Access Provisional Score = 90]

It is important to remember that Best Month Ever is a student project. Therefore it shouldn’t be put in the same bag as a product of an experienced studio. Either way, I feel many of the game’s faults came from inadequate writing. It wants to say a lot but by the end it doesn’t much at all. If all the logical and realistic inconsistencies can be ignored. The game’s overall story isn’t that bad. Even thought they have failed to explore most of the themes, there are still some heartwarming moments.

Noreya: The Gold Project is a 2D pixel-art metroidvania game set in a dark fantasy universe, offering players the choice between allegiance to the Gods of Light and Shadow or the gods of Corruption and Gold. Decisions made in the game affect progression by changing the available paths and abilities.

I want to end by telling you that this game is one that probably took no time to create and is a waste of time to even play! It disturbing from the start! Even if you get past the text, it’s so horrible and boring.

Honestly I can say this game has some good. Like the fact, if you walk through a room once, the next time you click on the door, it will just take you to the other side instead of having to walk over. Also you can open a map and teleport to any location that you have previously been to and characters don’t repeat the same lines every time you meet them. These are some really nice features, such a pity they find themselves in a game like this one.

It’s a walking simulator with no soul, a puzzle game with no challenge. If you want to spend hours wandering an empty island trying to piece together a story that honestly should have been a movie or a short film, then sure, The End of the Sun might scratch that itch. But for me, this is a hard pass.

Overall, Goosebumps Terror in Little Creek was pretty lackluster. Looking at the devs and publishers of the game, it kind of checks out that this game turned out this way. The developers PHL Collective and the publisher GameMill Entertainment are known for putting out low quality licensed kids games. Not to mention the pricing for Goosebumps, in my opinion, is not worth $40 USD for how short and barebones the experience was. On top of that, the game also has a $15 USD DLC pack that seems to only provide cosmetics, a 3D model viewer, and a concept art viewer. I can only recommend getting this game on a heavily discounted sale if you’re interested. Otherwise, I wouldn’t recommend this game, even if you wanted to buy it for your kids.

In short, its attempt to be a party game is poorly executed as it sneers at the things that make party games fun: quick games, easy to understand, no cumbersome mechanics, a well-known cast, and creative worlds. Instead, Dokapon Kingdom Connect misses the mark in my opinion on pretty much all of these, too caught up in its attempt to be an RPG.

Ultimately these games come from an era that will always be overlooked before the likes of Nintendo and Sega came along and catapulted gaming along the path where it has got to today, and that is commendable. It is a backhanded compliment to the era that these games are so out of date.

Things move extremely slow and while we have the ability to bump things up to three times the normal speed, there was nothing that really encouraged me to take those next steps. Homeseek is fun when you are locked into the gameplay loops but the moment you hit that first bump in the road in regards to waiting on something, the flaws start to come out. This is a major make or break moment for those who are on the fence here and nothing is really done to persuade you into continuing the game.

Monster Crown is an old-school RPG that demands you tame an array of beasts. Can you pick your team, win every fight, and fulfil your potential? Talking of potential, sadly this never gets off the ground.

Nitro kid does a wonderful job of standing out from other rouge-likes but some of the glaring issues prevent it from being a strong contender against other titles such as The darkest Dungeon and one of the more recent popular titles, Hades. It was a fun little adventure and could definitely hit the spot if players are looking for another game to add to their backlog but will certainly leave players looking for more after their initial run is finished.

Little Big Adventure- Twinsen’s Quest is a profoundly disappointing evolution of the cult classic. Bizarre story tone changes, god awful combat and platforming and poor visuals seal this version as a cheap imitator. Whilst the strong musical score remains, and sound design across the board is solid, it’s not enough to change my opinion that this was just made for a quick buck. This one should have stayed in the 90’s.

Once upon a time, Endless Ocean served as a novelty for an at-home diving experience. Now, despite its polished graphics, it is anything but a shell of itself. The fish are so nicely detailed, the soundtrack is chill, and the playthrough may be fun for half an hour. Endless Ocean Luminous is going to have a hard time being someone’s first choice for an underwater simulation experience. To be frank, I think I would just rather go to an aquarium.

Bubsy In: The Purrfect Collection should have stayed a retro platform only experience. This collection doesn't work particularly well and I was disappointed by 90% of the action. This was a shame as I hate to be so negative. However, this is one collection to avoid.

Witch Strandings is a game that really wanted to emphasize the importance of connections as well as nurturing the relationships between characters, but the control scheme made it hard for me to really get into it. While there were story details to be found around the world, it felt like there wasn’t enough guidance to help a player get the ball rolling. I understand that exploration should be the driving force but something like this could really use a guiding hand for the first few minutes outside of the tutorial to help bring the player along.

In summary, “Neptunia Game Maker” is a game that had a lot of potential but fails to deliver on almost every front. The story is disjointed and quite difficult to follow with how many characters get introduced every second. The design is uninspired which doesn’t utilise the art style and the combat is lacklustre. Features like the bike and game development mechanics feel half-baked and add little to the overall experience. I cannot recommend this game to anyone as even to experience the story the player would be forced to drag themselves through the combat encounters. In my opinion “Neptunia Game Maker” should have taken some tips form its own game making mechanics.

Skull And Bones pitches itself as an exciting MMO pirate adventure. Unfortunately, it's not very adventurous or exciting, and the MMO elements just get in the way. The 'pirate' bit I'll grant it though.

Project Motor Racing is not a good game. The frustrating vehicle gameplay, the violent A.I that comes to make your life a living hell and the fact the game punishes you for its own mistakes, really bring this game down. It isn’t fun to play and the online mode is evident that a lot of people don’t care about this game. Despite having nice looking cars, tracks based off of iconic locations and a career mode that does offer lots of freedom, it doesn’t make up for the poor gameplay. This is one race simulator you need to steer clear of.

You can look at Yuuna and the Haunted Hot Springs The Thrilling Steamy Maze Kiwami in two ways. The game is either a bad dungeon crawler or a horny anime game. It’s a game that offers little in story or gameplay, and it just feels like fan service for fans of the show. Unless you are a fan of the show and want more Yuuna content, or you want a video game with a lewder tone, this is not a game worth checking out.

Overall, I would say my time spent with Colossal Cave was well spent. It was a fun way to experience an older title brought up to modern times. Unfortunately, the charm is lost on those who don’t have any experience with this style of game and may be extremely off putting for those who like a little more guidance without having to be penalized for using the hint system. This is a wonderful nostalgia trip for many but unfortunately, Nostalgia isn’t enough for everyone.

With a storyline clocking in at three hours, Neptunia Riders VS Dogoos succeeds in embodying more elements of a larger game’s series of side quests than it does a worthwhile spinoff. While there is oftentimes a critical inconsistency in accounting for a price when reviewing a product, this title makes such ignorance impossible. Complaints that could usually be considered minor hiccups, such as fluctuating graphical fidelity, a lack of variety in content, and performance issues, instead resemble ugly burps that reflect a blatant disregard for the audience willing to spend forty US dollars on a series that has earned their trust. To that crowd, shining moments of straightforward gameplay and satisfying voice acting do exist between these outbursts, making it apparent that there are components worth salvaging here. For a deep sale, perhaps the most devout fans of the Neptunia series will find the silver lining of this underwhelming spinoff worth enduring. For me, there is no fuel left in this ride.

Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection should have been a slam-dunk remaster. Instead, Aspyr broke two games that just needed a little polish. If you’re looking to re-live the experience of single-player campaigns or galactic conquest, this collection might be worth picking up. For those looking for an online Star Wars shooter experience, this is not the remaster you are looking for. While I can only hope that patches will fix this game’s problems, I don’t know if they will help it recover from the rocky launch. I would avoid this game until there are massive improvements.

Overall, the fridge is red seems like a title that would hit it off well for those who are heavily invested in niche horror experiences but for those who are like myself, the intro did not do enough to get me hooked enough to fully understand what the story was behind the demonic red refrigerator. There were hints of a more coherent story throughout the game but since that interest was dashed on the rocks at the start, it was hard to want to piece everything together. The red fridge may be tempting for some to open, but it might be best that it remained closed.

Neon Blight could easily be a 6 or possibly 7 out of 10, however, due to its myriad of problems and drawbacks, it barely manages to scratch a 3. Hopefully Bleeding Tapes continue to release patches and get this game where it deserves to be. But for now, I’d strongly recommend avoiding this game until a later date.

Just like how my writing isn’t made for everyone, The Captain is Dead isn’t made for everyone. I wasn’t made for The Captain is Dead. No matter how good it is, I’ll never have anything of significance to say about its game design or its quality.

This is a generic space adventure with very basic features that may capture some while others struggle to get past the intro. With a few minor performance issues and some questionable design decisions, this is a simple game that is okay to pass the time with. Personally, I wish the characters had a bit more depth to them or even stepped outside of the stereotypical roles that they fill but the gameplay is okay enough to make up for that. For those who enjoy games like XCOM, I think you have a pur-fictly okay time with Mitzi and the crew.

Food Truck Simulator is a game that has plenty of potential. However, game-breaking bugs prevent it from excelling. Moreover, you'll become frustrated as you repeatedly reload the game. Had there been no issues, this would have scored between 7 and 8 out of 10.

This game, priced at $60, is not even close to an indie game in terms of visuals, story, gameplay, or even story length. The only positive thing about the game is its boss fights, but it still costs $60, while maybe $10 would be a better price. I do not recommend this game at all, especially at its current price.

Mechajammer is a good idea – a retro styled; pixel-art RPG set in a cyberpunk world. Unfortunately, it’s dreary, full of bugs and a disappointment. Especially when you realise the detailed character creation doesn’t really make much difference.

For everything that I’ve said about Spy Drops, some and hopefully all the negatives I’ve had with the game will be fixed. At the time of me making this review, the developers, Rainy Night Creations, announced that they will be replacing the AI voices with actual voice acting. Rainy Night Creations is a small dev team, but hopefully they can deliver on that promise and work on the other issues with the game as well.

I do not recommend buying Blood of Mehran. They’re asking £21 for this; you can get a modern Assassin’s Creed or Dad of Boy for cheaper than that. I could barely stomach 2 hours and in that time I learned all I needed to know. It’s not even bad in way that’s entertaining or campy, it’s just mediocre at its core, kinda nostalgic in a weird way, like a clumsy PS2 game that’s been given a fan made texture mod. Both the gameplay and storytelling are beyond archaic and it has no place to stand in an industry with increasingly high standards. Sat next to me when I was playing it, my flatmate said it “looks like a mobile game from 2011”. And he’s right.

I really wanted to like The Lord of the Rings: Gollum. I genuinely wanted to enjoy a unique take on a game set in the Lord of the Rings universe. Sadly, Gollum misses the mark. While the story is actually interesting, the gameplay, bugs and mechanics make it a painful slog.

Revhead is a mixed bag racing title that bites off more than it can chew. Not only does it look terrible, but it sounds awful and handles like a bag of spanners. Moreover, it is confusing and there is no replay value or longevity. Consequently, this is one title to avoid.

The missions can be tedious, the world is uninspired, exploration is painful, and the jokes barely ever land.

Postal 4 runs terribly, but maybe that’s the point. It is, at all times, replete with either dated, juvenile, or scatological humour, but I guess that could be the point? Postal 4 sucks, and if that’s the point, then Running With Scissors deserve some sort of Andy Kaufman award. The game costs $40. For me, the final score came down to the question of ‘would I actually pay for this?’ Absolutely not. This was awful. It could very well be a 10 in your eyes, but this is the easiest 2 I’ll ever give.

Probe: A Game Dev Experience! is an interesting educational concept giving an insight into game development. The biggest issues with Probe: A Game Dev Experience! is that it’s a very light look at games development whilst the non PSVR controls are borderline unplayable. You will learn how lighting and digital art are added to games but there is nothing further to keep you playing long enough to get the kind of experience that makes you want to go back and learn more about game development unfortunately.

Football Cup 2022 is a terrible example of the genre and very little about this title is memorable. Its saving grace is the Daily Challenges and selection of tournaments. Its graphics are woeful, audio dull and flat, and the controls are terrible. Its lack of licence will make you laugh, but this is a small mercy for an appalling title.

Moto Roader MC is an old-school racing game that hasn't aged well. With limited game modes and repetitive action, this shouldn't have been remade.

Not only is MalnaZidos an awful and poorly performing title, but it’s also incomplete and should never have been released in its current state.

Sadly, Line war does not offer players much to talk about unless they are already interested in the genre. For those like myself, the lack of a single player mode with A.I controlled units is a major miss. Pair this with a lack of a tutorial outside of videos and you have a combination that may mix well with some while it misses the mark for others. Studio Centurion has stated that there will be more modes to be released throughout the course of the year so for those who are interested in trying something new, there is a lot to look forward to.

The biggest problem comes from the grind. The prices for these unlocks are too expensive once you pass the early game. After a while It takes multiple runs to unlock a single stat upgrade for a single weapon. This expensiveness problem becomes even more unbearable when unlocking new abilities. [Early Access Provisional Score = 55]

I think, at the end of the day this title’s biggest problem is that there’s just not enough of it. However, if future content is up to the same standard as what we’ve got right now, I think Oaken will end up in a very good place. [Early Access Provisional Score = 75]

Overall, Fillit has a simple look and even simpler gameplay that will suck players in for what feels like an unknown amount of time while they try to finish a level. Every time I revisited the game to get screen shots or find out more from the game, time flew by while my little puck danced and dodged around enemy attacks. The vibrant colors and fluid controls really helps bring everything together and this is one of those games that would be great as apart of a bundle or to catch on sale. 11sheep really managed to create a game that will grab the players attention and not let go until they find themselves say “oh but just one more level and I’ll be done”. In a world where games are always trying to chase a new fad and latch on to them for dear life, it is refreshing to play something on the simpler side of things.

The biggest mistake SOOT makes seems to be level design. While it had a nice concept and solid core mechanics, they failed to execute their ideas properly through their levels. But once again I should say that I only played the first chapter, therefore if the game and levels changed significantly during chapter 2 and 3, I wouldn’t know.

Make no mistake, the core game here is a good one, it is a clearly well-refined game that delivers on hours of content. In theory, this is an enjoyable game but this PS5 version falls at the first hurdle, which hundreds of games over the past year haven’t, it just isn’t forgivable.

Crypt of the Serpent King is a dungeon crawler that fails to fulfil its potential. Sadly, the action is too easy, the mechanics understated, and it lacks finesse. It should have been fantastic but it lacks a spark and any difficulty.

Lumberjack Simulator is a real-to-life simulation title. With vast potential and a massive world to explore, it sets out its stall pretty early on. Sadly, though, many glitches, bugs, and problems thwart its progress. Accordingly, there are limited redeeming qualities to admire.

Ultimate Fishing Simulator 2 is a fantastic sports simulation title. With an array of branded gear to buy and over 60 species of fish to hunt, there is something for everybody. What’s more, it’s visually impressive and beautiful to look at. I cannot wait to see how much it evolves during its short 6-month Early Access period. After this, gamers from all platforms will be able to enjoy the phenomenal fishing action.

This game really was not my cup of tea. I felt that it failed on almost everything it set out to accomplish. While some parts are objectively bad, the game does have some good ideas. I hope next time, this team can try to execute their ideas better and give us a more satisfying to play twin stick shooter.

The Dark Prophecy is a classic point-and-click title that will fill you with nostalgia. What's more, it has some excellent characters, crazy locations, and some witty and sharp dialogue. However, it is sadly too short if you are a veteran of the genre. But don't let this deter you from playing this retro-inspired game. [Early Access Provisional Score = 80]

It’s hard to truly judge a title that won’t let you progress a little more than halfway, but what I know of the remainder of the experience, this a knight to forget; an average and repetitive title that is about as rewarding as the princesses’ throwaway comments as you adventure with them – by the 4th time, you’ve seen and heard enough.

Blood Waves is an arena-based zombie survival game that fails to hit the mark. With poor controls, lacklustre mechanics, and dated graphics, it will disappoint you. I can't recommend it as there are many better games in this genre.

Panda Punch is a retro platformer that is sadly lacking. Its action is repetitive and its plot is unfortunately dull. On top of this, it isn't challenging and it quickly becomes tedious and mundane. Thankfully, its visuals and simple controls prevent it from being a total flop!

Disney Dreamlight Valley is a wonderful family focused experience. With colourful Disney and Pixar characters, and safe and fun gameplay, you can laugh, smile, and relax as you save Dreamlight Valley. Mostly, this is an excellent title. However, the resource gathering is a grind and there are some bugs. Yet, these are minor when you consider the overall presentation and the incredible gameplay. [Early Access Provisional Score = 80]

One True Hero is a 3D platform adventure title that is lacklustre. Sadly, too many bugs and dated mechanics ruin this title. However, its narration is excellent and the story could be witty if it wasn't for the shortcomings. Furthermore, it is a game that has borrowed many of its core principles from leading games and failed miserably.

An interesting premise let down by wonky execution and by-the-book scares. Treads the same path that stronger games have already carved out.

If you are looking for a beat-em-up where you can chase big combos and high scores, then buy Streets of Rage 4. If you are looking for a game with a coin-guzzling arcade feel that you can play with a few friends, then buy the TMNT collection or Shredder's Revenge. If you are looking for a charming game with a wonderful art-style and customization, then buy either River City Girls game. And if you love rap, don't particularly care for combos or the beat-em-up formula in general, but want the experience of playing as your favourite rapper, then buy Def Jam Fight For NY.

While a charming concept made by a small and seemingly earnest team, the gameplay, characters, and levels are all just too bland to warrant a better score. If anything can be said in this game's defence without mentioning it's charm, I guess it would be that at least it's only $15.

Lost Dream: Darkness is one of the worst games I have ever played. If it wasn’t for this review, I would have quit the game halfway throughout of pure boredom. While the sound design is alright, every other aspect of the game is lacking. I do not recommend giving this game a go even for its fairly cheap price. I hope that this title leads to a better game in the future from these developers.

Ayre and the Crystal Comet is a poor example of the genre. With badly optimised visuals, clumsy controls, and a world devoid of life, this will leave you wanting. On top of this, you can walk through the trees, the swimming animation is awful, and the less we say about the dragon and Ayre, the better! However, it isn't all doom and gloom. No, thankfully, the audio is good; the UI is well-considered, and there is plenty to do. Had the developer spent more time optimising the experience, then the game would have been much improved.

I do believe Tower Simulator 3 is good at its actual air port simulation but what’s missing here is everything that makes a game actually a game, something someone would actually want to play and not just observe and in that regard Tower Simulator 3 completely misses the mark. I really wish I could enjoy just setting the graphics up, look at these beautiful planes take off and roleplay as if I’m actually in a tower on a bright early morning, but sadly with all of my attempts this just didn’t happen.

This is definitely a game that has a lot of potential and I would love to see more from these developers but I really hope they do better with the next entry in the series. The switch port of the game ran fine with no performance issues in both handheld and docked mode. While the visuals were a little blurry in the handheld mode, playing docked made things look a little sharper but did not solve the issue of the game being too dark. While this could have been solved by turning the brightness on my monitor up, things ended up being washed out and muddy. The scares found here rely on loud sounds and sudden pop ins which is bound to get some players but may leave others wanting for something more.

I had such high hopes for this game going into it since the story concept is decent enough to warrant a playthrough but the characters seem flat and by the time you see any development or reason to be interested in, there is a chance you will be in the same boat as myself. It misses its first step and spends the rest of the time trying to bring you along for a journey that may have lost you right away.

In the course of writing this review, I’ve learned that Red Mountain Studio, the developers of this game are a very small team and that might explain some of the oversights, but this is not a fun experience and honestly feels like it could have come out on the PS2.

For those looking for a short adventure to pass an evening, Shalnor Legends II is an okay title. My playthrough took me roughly 10 hours or so to see through to the end and was an alright way to pass a weekend. Unfortunately, there are a lot of better options out there when it comes to the adventure genre. While it is not terrible in any aspect, there are a lot of things that are just okay here. The visuals are passable but with some caveats. Some of the character models look extremely rough and hard to comprehend at first glance. Music is another instance of mediocracy. No tracks really stood out as exceptional or terrible during my time with the game. Everything about Shalnor Legends II just lands below average, making it extremely hard to recommend in a sea of games in the same genre.

The gameplay and controls are boring and annoying and there is no challenge in the game, the content of the game is very little and it can be finished in less than three and a half hours, the visuals are bad and unbearable, half of the missions have nothing to do with ship simulator at all, the sound quality is low. I do not recommend this game at all.

Ultimately, the turn based strategy game, Clash 2 lacks the essential elements that make a game enjoyable. With its tedious gameplay, uninspired storytelling, and lack of innovation, it’s difficult to find redeeming qualities in this title. For those seeking a truly engaging gaming experience, Clash 2 falls short of the mark.

If you’re looking for a rich and relaxing fishing sim experience, then there are plenty out there, but this isn’t it. Whether it’s the shop that looks like a micro-transaction hellscape (but isn’t), the confusing control scheme, or the general lack of direction, I can’t wrap my head around the choices that were made with this project. This unfortunately leads me to think it was simply a cheap soulless port, made to slurp up a few extra bucks before sinking back to the bottom of the riverbed. Yet apparently, this is a common occurrence for the folks over at Ultimate Games, so perhaps I shouldn’t be so surprised. Save yourself time and money, and support the indie devs out there who put their heart and soul into their projects, and for a lower price too! Keep on casting that line folks, there are plenty more fish in the sea.

Whether it’s overly punishing hitboxes or bland level design, Balloony struggles to get its feet off the ground. There’s so much inspiration out there when it comes to 2D platformers, and yet it feels as though almost none of the things that made those games great made it into this title. If you’re looking for an engaging experience then you’d better look elsewhere, because this game has gone down like a lead balloon.

My time spent with holy Stick was not one that I can say I enjoyed due to the high focus on multiplayer and while you can match up with bots, there is no real challenge except learning how to actually play the game. The concept of hand-drawn maps in the spaces of a notebook is really interesting but unfortunately any good will this game earns is only dampened by a bad experience moments later.

This game doesn’t have absolutely nothing going for it. It has many fascinating survival elements mixed with a unique story. While I wouldn’t say that this game is complete in its current state, if you enjoy these types of survival games or the previous game, Farmers Life, then possibly give this game a go if you’re interested. Sadly, I can say that otherwise, it may be best to give this experience a pass, at least until they fix the nonfunctional aspects.

The game itself is fun if players can overlook the bugs and issues. I believe the game is still patchable if the developer team still polishing the game. Thus, the game is still a recommended piece for souls-like lovers to give a try.

Ario is a colourful 2.5D adventure title. However, much of its gameplay is lacklustre and the story is just as bland. Disappointingly, I was expecting much more, but it didn't deliver. As such, there are better alternatives available.

United Penguin Kingdom is a strategy city-building game where players are tasked with developing a kingdom and becoming its king in order to protect, feed, and ensure the well-being of the citizen penguins.

Overall, I wanted to like this game. I could see the potential and the vision for what the developers were going for. There are plenty of great ideas in this game. However, poor execution of those ideas and confusing design elements hold this game back for me. I hope the developers can learn from this criticism to improve their craft in their future titles.

In the end, this hour-long Point and click game fell short of my expectations.

If you were wondering I do not recommend this game, it’s dull, repetitive and lacks any excitement, if you’re here for the women! Go right ahead and get it, but if you want an actual good game look elsewhere as this game provided me more lows than highs. I give it a 3/10 the artstyle and performance make it at least a game that works but the lack of actual greatness outside of it makes it a game that disappoints.

Gardener: Plant Creator doesn’t live up to its promise. It’s not worth playing if you’re looking for something enjoyable.

The story is very simple and without twist, it does not make you curious about it and it is short. The gameplay is very repetitive and you only solve repetitive puzzles and sometimes you encounter sister Madeline. The map design is great and its shortcuts will surprise you. Visually, it is good and has stable resolution and performance. The sound design is not good and you can’t tell where Sister Madeline is walking by the sound of her footsteps.

An easy to pick up puzzle game to lose a little bit of time on, but then also lose interest in the following days.

My conclusion for Sherwood Extreme is that it is a grand concept but much less a game. The combat is fluid, the enemies, albeit easy, are very fun to fight and the map design for the very little there was, was very fun to navigate. In Short, this labour of love is in need of more time in the oven of Love!

It’s hard to like something that combined many elements of things you don’t like, but when that happens and you fail those multiple elements, it just makes the experience so much worse. I give the game a 4.5/10. It’s got some greatness in atmosphere and its performance is rock solid. This seems like a game that would be nice, but there is tons of ironing out to do before moving on to the next project.

A nice landscape can't hide unsatisfying combat, weak survival mechanics and an odd, unfinished feel. Kingdom of Fallen is definitely not ready for prime time.

If you’re a die-hard snooker fan, you might get a kick out of it for a bit. However don’t expect anything mind-blowing. Here’s hoping the developers wake up and inject some real creativity into this dud in the future.

I cannot stress enough how unenjoyable this experience was due to the inability to find a match to play online and with a simple feature such as A.I opponents missing, this is a game that comes hard to recommend. Hopefully down the road, the devs are able to implement a way to enjoy what is on offer here. The game has a solid foundation and the potential to be enjoyable but it is hard to see that potential when you are staring at a screen that tells you no matches can be found on multiple occasions.

In the end, Garten of Banban is a game without story that gives you a one-line story at the beginning of the game, a very short gameplay that lasts between 15 and 20 minutes, the puzzles are very easy and without challenges, apart from a short section there is no excitement or fear in the game, visually it is an mediocre mobile game.

Lost in Tropics is a survival game that piqued my interest. However, the repetitive action, lack of depth, and weird in-game events undermined the potential. Furthermore, your NPC companion is annoying and there are not enough items to craft. Consequently, it left me wanting.

Wild West Dynasty has a good foundation, but it needs work. If you want a polished and engaging experience, wait for further development. However, if you're an Early Access enthusiast who enjoys the Wild West setting and can forgive the problems, you might find some fun in building your own frontier town. [Early Access Provisional Score = 90]

If you’re looking for a fresh approach to planetary exploration and isometric factory simulation, Space for Sale is definitely worth a try. However, don’t be surprised if its appeal fades once the novelty wears off. [Early Access Provisional Score = 80]

Grab your controller, charge your blasters and prepare for the physics shooter of the Universe! Take on diverse gameplay challenges, manage and upgrade your resources and abilities while you unfold the mysteries of the Cosmos. Defeat LORD CHAOSBRINGER and earn your title as the Master Blaster (developed and published by Lost Cabinet Games)

Mission: Rift Seeker is a game that has launched in early access. The game has solid fundamentals and is a fun colony simulation game. The game teaches you how to start your base and gives you a solid foundation with room to experiment and learn how to let your seekers thrive. However, for a game that revolves around sending your minions to do things, I wish I had more control over my seekers. I also wish things in the game were more clear about how they worked. For those looking for a colony simulation game, this is one to keep track of, as it’s still in early access. In its current state, it is a game that I can’t recommend at the moment. [Early Access Provisional Score = 60]

Police Simulator: Patrol Officers is ugly, repetitive and broken beyond belief. It has potential in its big book of procedures and regulations, but doesn't implement anything well enough to even get close to reaching that potential.

Offroad Truck Simulator: Heavy Duty Challenge should have been a great racing experience. It has so much potential that it left me annoyed. The hulking machines and high-energy racing should have been thrilling. Unfortunately issues and bugs hold it back!

Highway Police Simulator is a woeful example of a simulator experience. It is broken, messy, and unbelievably terrible. This is a shame as the potential is there to see. However, too many bugs and awful acting hold it back.

An Everyday Story is a 2.5D story-driven puzzle platformer with a heartfelt twist. Experience life from the view of three trinkets... what do you think happens when our dreams become so real that they stain our reality?

Orange Season was disappointing! This tried and tested genre should have been fun. However, the gameplay was flat and the game is so buggy that you will become annoyed. Unless it gets some serious updates, this is one to avoid!
