    The Tower on the Borderland
    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.

    Sherwood Extreme
    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!

    Tales from Candleforth
    Tales from Candleforth is a dark and testing puzzle experience. However, its story is too short, and the controls are unfortunately sluggish. Thankfully, though, the aesthetics are interesting and I loved each small arena. Accordingly, though this game divides my opinion, I recommend buying it.

    Around the World: Travel to Brazil
    Around the World: Travel to Brazil Collector’s Edition is a solid hidden object game with good visuals and a charming atmosphere. The variety of locations, mini-games, and the bonus content in the Collector’s Edition make it a good value for fans of the genre. While the repetitive gameplay and lack of a deeper story limits its appeal to hardcore puzzle enthusiasts, it offers a relaxing and informative virtual escape to Brazil for super casual players.

    Sclash
    Sclash is a simple side-scrolling experience. However, though it is straightforward, the familiar tale is fantastic. Moreover, the stunning visuals and classic oriental soundscape work perfectly with the theme. My complaints are that it is too short and it lacks difficulty. Yet, if you can overlook these issues, you'll love this striking, albeit familiar game.

    Ingression: Platforming with Portals
    Ingression is difficult, but it is satisfying to play. The levels I have played are unlike anything I have experienced in a platformer. Its flawless combination of platforming and portal gameplay is an excellent homage to the games that came before them while creating something unique and fun to play. While sometimes you can get disoriented by the portals, and the story is serviceable, the gameplay is excellent and a must-play for platformer fans everywhere.

    Baladins
    In conclusion, “Baladins” is a delectable treat for fans of turn-based RPGs and narrative-driven adventures alike. With its charming visuals, engaging gameplay, and captivating story, it’s a game that’s sure to leave you craving for seconds. So grab your over the top role playing friends, sharpen your skills, and embark on a journey like no other. After all, time waits for no one!

    Front Mission 2 Remake
    Front Mission 2: Remake is an old-school turn-based experience that is a little rough around the edges. However, I loved the weaponry and the new core mechanics. It is a shame, though, that the target system undermines the tactical nuance of the gameplay.

    SaGa Emerald Beyond
    If you’re wondering I don’t recommend this game unless you’re already a fan of the series. And if you can get past most of its issues, your fine. If you’re anything like me, this will mostly come out to be a messy ride. I give this game a 5/10 a pretty fun game if you ignore the story, some characters, and the boring world.

    TopSpin 2K25
    I have waited for years in hope of TopSpin returning in all its glory and boy, has it delivered! A deep and robust career mode and an addictive online serving of tennis really make this game special. Coupled with gorgeous visuals and stunning sound design, this is the quintessential tennis video game. Some wonky currency issues and at times grindy levelling can hinder the experience slightly, but overall this game has reinvigorated my love for tennis in the real world and in the gaming arena. I’ll see you on the court!

    Bunhouse
    Bunhouse is a fun but straightforward garden simulation title. It can be enjoyed alone or with others. However, its gameplay lacks depth and the textures are somewhat rough. Accordingly, it is a niche game that will have a limited appeal.

    Men of War II
    If you can look past the clunkiness in the presentation, you'll find some deep and interesting mechanics in Men of War II. The gruelling grind of its combat makes it great for generating stories, though there is a distinct lack of polish.

    Metro Simulator 2
    Metro Simulator 2 is a relaxing and challenging railway simulation title. This single-player experience lets you drive 2 different trains across the Russian Metro network. However, complex controls and problematic gameplay hold it back. Furthermore, it isn't as accessible as other train simulation titles.

    Biomorph
    Biomorph may not be the soulslike it was perceived to be, but it set itself apart by impressing me with its transformational mechanics, strong customizable kit and riveting sci-fi story. Like the name suggests, you can morph into your enemies gaining a new and unique moveset. It is exponentially satisfying to utilize these monster’s abilities to traverse to new areas and find secrets. The serious tone of the story has tones of lightheartedness and lore that was given the care it deserved. Biomorph is an enjoyable metroidvania with many unique qualities that I wholeheartedly recommend.

    Stellar Blade
    Visually it is good and there are minor problems in some textures, performance and resolution are great.

    King Arthur: Legion IX
    The foundations have all been laid, the walls erected, now Legion IX just needs a roof and a coat of paint. Despite this, I would recommend this title to anyone unfamiliar with the Tactical RPG scene. It’s simple to learn and rewarding to master, with various difficulties that cater to every audience possible. If anything, I recommend switching the starting difficulty to hard, rather than normal, as this mode won’t challenge you (apart from some weird difficulty spikes near the end). So if you’re interested in history and fantasy, or even just want something that’ll make you think, King Arthur Legion IX is a great place to start.

    ROBOBEAT
    ROBOBEAT is a rhythm-based FPS that tests your patience and ability to feel the beat. Moreover, its sci-fi edge is unnerving as neon-infused arenas are filled with projectiles and grim enemies. Consequently, you must utilise the clever stage design and shoot to the beat if you wish to succeed. My only complaint is the familiar gameplay mechanics.

    Cryptmaster
    In the end, CyrpMaster is a completely unique and well-functioning game. However, if you are looking for a breathtaking story with good pacing, CryptMaster is not your light at the end of the tunnel.

    The Bridge Curse 2: The Extrication
    Despite these minor shortcomings, “The Bridge Curse 2: The Extrication” remains a standout entry in the horror genre, earning its place among the pantheon of spine-tingling classics. With its spine-chilling atmosphere, engaging narrative, and solid gameplay mechanics, this haunting journey through the halls of a haunted school is sure to leave a lasting impression on even the most seasoned horror aficionados. Brace yourself for a nightmarish descent into darkness, and remember—once the clock strikes midnight, there’s no escaping the shadows that lurk within.

    Swarm Grinder
    Swarm Grinder is a cruel and often challenging rogue-like experience. Moreover, the casual gameplay is ideal to enjoy between major title. However, a lack of originality and tough action may put some people off.

    Lots of Things
    With these features, paired along with its cluttered aesthetic, I think Lots of Things Collector’s Edition appears to look more like a mobile game. Frankly, it may be more suitable in that format. There are many hidden objects games out there with varying quality. Lots of Things Collector’s Edition is . . . alright amongst them. If you are bored and looking for mild stimulation, then this title is a great option.

    Minicology
    Minicology is more than just a survival game, it’s an invitation to explore, tinker, and unleash your creativity. With its charming visuals, in-depth crafting mechanics, and emphasis on automation, Minicology offers a unique and rewarding experience for gamers of all stripes. Whether you’re a seasoned strategist or simply enjoy a relaxing and visually captivating adventure, Minicology is a must-play title that will keep you hooked for a couple of hours.

    Touhou Mystia's Izakaya
    Touhou Mystia's Izakaya is, rather obviously, aimed squarely at fans of the Touhou Project. Existing fans will no doubt enjoy the many character interactions and the rather pleasant management gameplay. It is a little too simplistic for my tastes, and the plot a touch vague, but it's a charming management sim regardless.

    Ereban: Shadow Legacy
    I really enjoyed my time with Ereban: Shadow Legacy and cannot wait to see what else this developer has in store for us. With mechanics that are enjoyable and a story full of interesting characters, This is a title that I would definitely recommend to those who are looking for a fun adventure to run through.

    Sixty Four
    I give it a 6/10 Not horrible, not amazing, dead straight in the middle. It seems like a good starting point; with plenty of opportunities to improve either their formula in this game or future ones.

    Let Bions Be Bygones
    It needs work, that’s for certain. But these are things that can be ironed out. I think with a bit of polish this game could be great, because there’s some real promise here, it’s just buried under a lot of unnecessary clutter. If you’re a sci-fi lover with a passion for mystery. I’d say this is a game for you. But maybe give it a bit of time in the oven first, this project isn’t quite ready yet.

    INDIKA
    I would certainly recommend Indika to any fans of platformers or story-driven adventures. It doesn’t take long at all to connect with these characters and the story. One warning is the game is quite short, it currently sits with an average of a four-hour playtime on Howlongtobeat.com. It’s also not the most replayable experience, there isn’t much outside of the story to do. So if you’re looking for something to keep you entertained for a longer time frame, this might not be for you. For me personally, I think it was an appropriate length for the story it was telling and I wasn’t at all bothered by its short length. I’m very much looking forward to seeing what Odd Meter produce next.
