    Sometimes, silly games are worth purchasing for a laugh and Counter Fight 3 is great for that but it does run out of steam quite fast.

    As an admirer of trains, I enjoyed my time with Mini Trains a lot although it's a very simple game and feels like it should be in VR.

    If the fact that it's titled Redneck Skeet Shooting isn't enough of a red flag, allow me to say that this is one terrible game.

    If Bus Fix 2019 is some kind of joke then it's done a great job of punking me with its downright unplayable gameplay and lame premise.

    Darksiders III fans will find The Crucible to be a great way to show off their skills. That being said, it's still just a combat arena.

    Robbie Swifthand and the Orb of Mysteries is one of my favourite indies of the year with its rewarding gameplay and wealth of content.

    I'm fairly certain that Epic Clicker Journey is the best game where you just tap on a screen but that's not really saying much is it?

    3D space shooters don't get much simpler than Subdivision Infinity DX but its gameplay is certainly tight and challenging enough.

    Even though it's enjoyable at first, #RaceDieRun's overly sensitive mechanics make playing it eventually become too frustrating.

    Although Last Resort is a solid shoot 'em up, it's nothing more than an R-Type wannabe that definitely hasn't aged as well.

    Aero Fighters 2 is an enjoyable and funny shmup that's perfect for genre newbies as its degree of difficulty isn't very high.

    It may not be as recognizable as many other retro shmups but Zed Blade is definitely worth playing in this day and age.

    It's certainly a good-looking and challenging shoot 'em up but Pulstar isn't quite as fun as many other NeoGeo shooters.

    With so many must-play retro shoot 'em ups available on modern consoles, Ghost Pilots ends up being one disappointing game.

    If you want to see how fun NeoGeo shmups can be then you need to play Prehistoric Isle 2. It's one of the best games in the genre.

    Vasara Collection contains 2 incredibly fun classic shoot 'em ups that aren't very well known which makes this collection even more worthwhile. So, if you're an arcade shooter fan then buying this compilation should be a no-brainer.

    As a huge Wonder Boy fan, I enjoyed Wonder Boy Returns Remix but it's definitely not a complete improvement over 2017's less than stellar offering. The fact that it's missing a lot of its content simply doesn't make much sense at all.

    Ittle Dew may not contain a lengthy adventure but it's so packed with fun that I highly recommend it. Replaying this indie classic definitely made me excited for the prospect of Ittle Dew 3. Will it ever happen? By Itan's beard, I hope so.

    Card-based combat doesn't get much more satisfying than in Slay The Spire and its roguelike campaign is quite a rewarding challenge.

    Machiknights: Blood Bagos may be simple at its core yet stomping around with a friend while decimating your foes just feels awesome.
