Unexplored 2: The Wayfarer's Legacy is a tough rogue-like fantasy adventure title. With vivid graphics, lush audio, and interesting ideas, it has mountains of potential. However, its combat elements and NPC interactions undermine much of the action. Consequently, it could have been amazing, but it isn't as great as it should have been.

Clash: Artifacts of Chaos is a challenging soulslike title. What's more, its death mechanics are cruel, there is a distinct lack of guidance, and a day/night cycle makes things tougher still. Yet, stunning graphics and interesting audio keep you going. Furthermore, "The Ritual" is interesting, often unfair, but worthy of your time. Moreover, a range of colourful and interesting characters help to keep you on your toes.

Iris and the Giant is a cruel and melancholy deck-building title. Furthermore, there are rogue-like mechanics, some RPG elements, and a touching story. What's more, I loved the artistry and the audio. Sadly, repetition and occasionally awkward controls taint the otherwise phenomenal experience.

Whilst I enjoyed my time with HEROish I can’t really say that I expect it to change anyone’s life, there are other games in the MOBA space that are far more worthy of your time and money. Not to say that HEROish is a waste of money, £8.50 on Steam isn’t much after all, but then I played it for free so what do I know?

Masterplan Tycoon is a fun, simple, and refined simulation title. What's more, its rudimentary concept ensures that it is easy to understand. However, some minor issues hold it back from reaching its potential.

Ultra Pixel Survive is a survival RPG with an old-school aesthetic. What's more, there are plenty of characters to unlock and loads of monsters to fight. However, a lack of content and repetitive action holds it back. Yet, it is oddly moreish, and I enjoyed my time with it.

Blind Fate: Edo no Yami is an odd adventure title with a sci-fi twist. Furthermore, it has a basic skill tree, some excellent combat, and a wonderful presentation. Unfortunately, though, sluggish controls and repetitive action hold it back. Yet, don't let this take away from an otherwise fantastic experience.

Hotel Renovator is a game that should be handled with caution. While on one side it is a wholly unfinished glorified mesh of Unreal assets being priced on Steam at 24.99€, there are small signs of the game potentially becoming larger in future updates, or maybe even being fixed by its community's mods (something very telling of Two Horizon's intentions in game development). I am giving this game a very wishful six, with hopes of future patches improving on very clear flaws.

Zapling Bygone is a cruel Metroidvania title. What's more, there are plenty of collectables on offer and a range of skulls to find. Consequently, it'll test your ability and keep you on edge throughout. My only annoyance is the sheer difficulty, and the lack of guidance can become frustrating.

An enjoyable, entry level metroidvania. It looks, sounds and plays great even if it is a little on the short side.

ZERO Sievert is an enjoyable game with its deep world-building, fun gameplay, and great presentation. However, it struggles with some aspects of its presentation and its teaching tools. Although, this game is still in early access and might have changes in the future that fix these problems. Overall, ZERO Sievert is still a very fun time. If you are a fan of the Survival genre of games I recommend giving it a go.

DC's Justice League: Cosmic Chaos is an amusing action-adventure title. The world is in danger and the Justice League must stand up and be counted. However, an all-powerful trickster has other ideas and you must battle this childish fool if you wish to be victorious. Search lairs, kill fishy monsters, and tackle familiar villains in this colourful and interesting DC game.

Wildfrost is a fantastic deck-builder with rogue-like mechanics. What's more, it has a melancholy story, incredible graphics, and stunning audio. On top of this, it is challenging, addictive, and grim. However, the tough action will put some of you off. Yet, I urge you to break through the learning curve as you battle to save humanity from the Wildfrost.

Heidelberg 1693 is a gory 2.5D action adventure title. Furthermore, its old-school appeal, hard-hitting audio, and macabre story are fantastic. Sadly, the controls aren't perfect, and the gameplay can be unfairly tough. However, this shouldn't stop you from "enjoying" this blood-soaked, gruesome affair.

All in all, it feels difficult to recommend Remnant: From the Ashes as a Nintendo Switch title. If you like soulslikes, guns, trees, and grey things: maybe play this on any other console. Chances are, it’s a pretty good game there. But here, it’s not a great experience.

A huge melting pot of different ideas that comes out rather bland. Its nice ideas are undermined by the shallowness of the experience.

Moonrider feels like a nostalgic mish-mash of different ideas, with little care taken as to how each new idea will affect the whole. This game is very fun on a first playthrough, and fairly dull on any subsequent ones. The game is not open enough to appeal to exploratory players who want to find its secrets, and the game is nowhere near tight enough to appeal to old school arcade players or rank chasers. There’s almost certainly a plurality of people who fall into the middle somewhere and they’ll almost definitely love the game, but for me, it’s just a fairly good retro platformer; a game-type which I’m quickly becoming tired of.

Ultimately, Crazy Rocks makes a valiant attempt at evolving the formula but doesn’t quite stick the landing. If you want another game in the same vein as Papers, Please but with a little extra spice and an additional dimension then this is the absolutely game for you.

RunBean Galactic is a fun, challenging, and moreish indie title. Furthermore, its simple concept and basic traps are deceptively understated. Can you avoid every obstacle and survive for as long as possible? Keep on running in this Flappy Bird-like endeavour.

Eggcelerate to the Tropics is an eggcellent time trial racing game. What's more, it has some challenging physics-based mechanics and addictive gameplay. Furthermore, with drip-fed elements and interesting stage design, this will keep you busy and test your skills throughout.

Seeing Lora’s descent into despair and desperation was an interesting story choice since we aren’t playing the usual heroine. Her character has minor changes based on your dialog choices and the ending will change as well so replayability is relatively high for those interested in seeing the other paths play out. I got the winter ending and felt like that was a wonderful way to wrap up such a dreadful story. I clocked in around an hour and a half for my initial playthrough so it shouldn’t take long to see the credits roll for your first playthrough. This is definitely a game to keep an eye out for, especially if you are interested in seeing the story of a not-so-perfect character play out.

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.

If you’re into RTS games, I’d definitely consider this but maybe not at the expense of more well-established titans of the genre.

King of the Arcade is a fun 80s-inspired romp. With colourful characters, interesting games, and an underdog story, this will make you laugh throughout. I adored the unique take on classic arcade titles and the short but sweet plot. My only complaint is that it isn't long enough. Consequently, I hope the developers add more content.

Sifu is boundlessly entertaining, immensely satisfying, and unrelentingly fresh. Even over a year after its initial release, I was still excited to jump back in, and I'm still excited to go back.

While Terraformers has its faults like the unclear tutorials that don’t explain the mechanics of the game very well, it is overall still a very fun game. This is thanks to the fantastic presentation, the many unlockable options and difficulty options leading to a very replayable game, and the challenging yet enjoyable gameplay. I strongly recommend giving this game a go. While it has a slow start, I encourage you to push through its grueling start to find a fantastic game with a lot of depth and an emotional soundtrack.

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.

Astronite is a cruel and tough Metroidvania experience. What's more, its 1bit graphics and synth music ensure it has an old-school appeal. However, its lack of hand-holding and its unfairly brutal ways will put many players off.
