    Candivity is a pretty enjoyable and very cute multiplayer funfest in the same vein as Suika Game so check it out if that's your thing.

    It may be fun but there isn't much in Dotori that you haven't experienced in other 2D platformers and its gameplay is a bit clunky, too.

    It may be a simple and repetitive game but SUPER UFO FIGHTER is still a ton of fun to play with a chum for as long as it lasts.

    Time on Frog Island could be considered one big puzzle to unravel and for that, it's pretty cool albeit somewhat tedious at times.

    Void Gore is one of those games where all you try to do is climb the leaderboards. Other than that, there really isn't much substance.

    Offering simple questions and featuring a lighthearted and fun-filled presentation, Papa's Quiz is a solid trivia game for all ages.

    Aviary Attorney is a funny and distinctly stylish game yet it owes Phoenix Wright a bit too much in residual cheques.

    Although its chaotic co-op gameplay can be entertaining, Filthy Animals Heist Simulator simply doesn't reach the heights of similar titles.

    Long-time Sega fans who have fond memories of the mid-'80s will love rediscovering Alex Kidd in Miracle World. That being said, it certainly won't convert any non-fans as it simply hasn't aged as well as many other retro 2D platformers.

    From its goofy retro fantasy setting to its unique magic system; Gate Of Doom is a solid arcade gem that's worth checking out.

    Super Magbot's fun factor almost entirely relies on if you enjoy replaying levels over and over again until you finally master them.

    Although there's a lot of entertaining dungeon-crawling and puzzle-solving to be had in CTHULOOT, frequent bugs take away from the fun.

    Even though it features nifty puzzles and a strikingly unique narrative, EQQO is held back in this non-VR console release.

    With so many roguelike twin-stick shooters out there, Last Encounter remains an overall enjoyable yet middling experience.

    When it comes to retro arcade games, Gain Ground is definitely on the niche side of the equation. So, if you're looking for a unique old-school arcade experience then you may get a kick out of booting this gem up but don't expect it to blow you away.

    Although I wouldn't put Empire of Angels IV in my top SRPGs, it's unique and enjoyable enough if you don't have anything else to play.

    EGGCONSOLE SILPHEED PC-8801mkIISR is a bit too retro to wholeheartedly enjoy nowadays but it's great that we can actually play this long-lost shmup gem despite the fact that it hasn't aged all that well.

    As far as atmospheric 2D puzzle-solving adventure games go, 7th Sector offers a mostly middle-of-the-road experience.

    There may not be many retro James Bond games but Sly Spy certainly does a decent job of filling 007's shoes.

    Dark Devotion is one of the most brutally challenging 2D action RPGs and the controls definitely don't complement its tough gameplay.

    Although it features a lovely presentation and goofy humour, Skellboy's gameplay could use a lot more fine-tuning.

    Project Starship is a simple pick-up-and-play shmup that can provide some frantic fun in between more substantial gaming sessions.

    If it were a bit smoother and less buggy, I'd easily consider Mechs V Kaijus to be a top-notch tower-defence game; that's for sure.

    Tracks: The Train Set Game would be a great game if it were more polished. As it is, I can only recommend it to fellow train enthusiasts.

    With its steep difficulty curve and imbalanced co-op, Flora & Fang is a bit rough despite having a solid foundation and great visuals.

    Mango Protocol's twisted sense of humour is in full force in MechaNika so if you love dark humour and adventure games, give it a go.

    Although it doesn't deviate much from a stereotypical overhead run 'n' gun, Heavy Barrel is a solid cooperative arcade shooter.

    TY the Tasmanian Tiger 4: Bush Rescue Returns may be a step down from its 3D roots but what's here is still rather enjoyable.

    It may not be the best retro shoot 'em up but Super Real Darwin's nifty power-up system surely makes it a solid arcade gem.
    • tbd Metascore

    Simply using bombs in a shoot 'em up is a novel and somewhat fun premise but Blast Rush LS doesn't do a heck of a lot with this formula.
