    With nifty mechanics and a rewarding sense of challenge, Cat Souls is a worthwhile indie despite its rather clunky and inconsistent feel.

    Annalynn is a ton of fun so if you're in the mood for some gratifying retro arcade action then you'd be a goof not to play this indie gem.

    I loved my time with Terminal Velocity: Boosted Edition and I'll boot it up whenever I want a quick fix of old-school explosive action.

    I didn't expect much from Sugar Tanks but its slow albeit intuitive gameplay still managed to disappoint; it's not that sweet after all.

    Speed Crew is definitely a solid co-op game to add to your line-up but it definitely doesn't reinvent the wheel; it only repairs it.

    I loved every second of Railbound and I'm sure you will, too, especially if you appreciate cute dogs, tricky trains, and clever puzzles.

    Etrian Odyssey Origins Collection is a great compilation of dungeon crawlers but one that will require a substantial amount of patience to play through so if you're up to the task, it can be one highly rewarding package that'll stay with you for a very long time.

    We Love Katamari REROLL+ Royal Reverie is exactly what its name will lead you to believe as it's an excellent classic silly fun time that looks better than ever and has a pinch of extra content that's sure to delight long-time fans so play it; okay, Mr. Sunshine?

    Undead Horde 2: Necropolis is simply one of my favourite indie games of the year so far thanks to its incredibly rewarding structure and variety of horde types that make configuring your army a treat. If that sounds good to you then I highly recommend this indie gem.

    Street Fighter 6 is an incredible experience that any fan of fighting games will thoroughly appreciate. With 3 very different modes of play that'll appeal to basically anyone, I can easily say that this is one must-have fighter.

    Raiden III x MIKADO MANIAX is a solid iteration of a classic shoot 'em up which will always remain one of my favourites thanks to its incredible gameplay and action-packed campaign that'll keep you glued to the screen. Plus, there are oodles of extras which is great.

    Railway Empire 2 may not be a perfect fit for console play but I still loved my time with it and I definitely hope that it gets updated to help make it more accessible and streamlined. Although it can be a great deal of track-laying fun, I currently prefer the first game.

    Super Mega Baseball 4 is my favourite baseball game of all time thanks to its top-notch customizable gameplay, oodles of modes, and hilarious and welcoming atmosphere. Plus, it reminded me why I've always loved baseball games even from the good old NES days.

    Although it's a mostly entertaining old-school shmup, Arcade Archives MAZINGER Z can be quite irritating with its brutal unpredictability.

    If you own a Switch and love shoot 'em ups then I highly recommend playing Gunvein as it offers top-tier arcade-shooting entertainment.

    Cyber Citizen Shockman is certainly a relic from the past as it's undeniably dated yet at the same time, I can't stop playing it.

    Although there's a lot of humour and good times packed into Evil Wizard, its combat is quite middling and can be rather frustrating.

    Super Dungeon Maker nails what made the classic Zelda dungeons fun while letting you intuitively create and share your own; great stuff.

    Although it doesn't do anything revolutionary gameplay-wise, Planet of Lana is a lovely puzzle platformer with one gorgeous world.

    As far as retro-inspired 2D action games go, Bat Boy is certainly top-tier and it will definitely put your skills to the test.

    The delicate balance of maintaining health and on-hand energy charges throughout grueling combat situations makes CONVERGENCE: A League of Legends Story a challenging and immersive adventure that'll compel you to fully explore its imaginative world.

    Onigo Hunter is certainly one of those retro-inspired RPGs that I'll gladly go back to whenever I want a quick fix of an old-school turn-based adventure. Its sense of exploration is superb and it even makes backtracking while completing quests a treat. Huzzah!

    HUMANITY is one great puzzler that'll keep you entertained throughout its huge campaign of challenging and always-evolving scenarios.

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

    When it comes to indie game sequels, Supraland: Six Inches Under truly provides more than enough thanks to its imaginative new setting and gameplay mechanics that'll constantly keep you wondering just what the heck you'll come across next.

    Puzzle Bobble Everybubble! marks a great return for the iconic series. It may take a few missteps with some minor gameplay elements but what's here still provides a superb collection of bubble-bursting fun that you can easily enjoy with friends.

    It took a long time for me to appreciate what Monster Menu: The Scavenger's Cookbook has to offer and once I did, I became hooked thanks to its surprisingly deep strategic survival formula that'll have you scrambling to maintain and grow your party of chibi adventurers.
