    Playing Rogue Singularity will require some patience as you adapt to its gameplay but once it clicks, it's one rewarding roguelike.

    If you're looking for a fun wrestling game that doesn't take itself seriously then Chiki-Chiki Boxy Pro Wrestling is a must-buy game.

    It may have a promising premise but Post War Dreams executes its vision poorly and it's definitely not optimized for consoles.

    There's a lot to love about Grand Brix Shooter, especially for dedicated shoot 'em up fans who are looking for a challenge.

    Whipseey and the Lost Atlas may be a cute and somewhat fun 2D platformer but it's a bit too unforgiving as well as incredibly short.

    ESport Manager has a solid premise and some cool simulation elements but the actual matches are way too easy to exploit.

    Ignoring the huge hassle of powering your base and how difficult it is to use the industrial hotspots, I still enjoyed all of the changes in No Man's Sky Beyond. There's quite a variety of them so if you're a long-time No Man's Sky player, I'm sure you'll find something to enjoy. However, be warned because if you have any old bases, it might take a while to power them all up.

    If you fit in Vambrace: Cold Soul's niche audience, you'll definitely have a fun time but overall, it's a tough game to widely recommend.

    Not everyone will enjoy Agatha Knife's off-putting world but those who do will find a lot to like about this quirky adventure game.

    If you're looking for a satisfying roguelike to play in short bursts then Deathstate: Abyssal Edition will definitely act as a fun distraction.

    Castle Crashers Remastered takes an already great game and makes it even better by improving its performance and adding a new mini-game. It may not go as far as some remasters but it's still worth purchasing, especially if you haven't played it before.

    It may be simple but Ling: A Road Alone is certainly engaging enough to keep masochistic gamers begging for another grueling battle.

    Habroxia is about as standard as retro-style shoot 'em ups can get while still offering slight twists on the classic gameplay.

    If you're looking to breeze through some levels after a long day then you're sure to enjoy playing Family Tree every now and then.

    I enjoyed Pig Eat Ball much more than I thought I would and I'll gladly go back to it whenever I want some frantic arcade fun.

    As a Geometry Wars clone, Debris Infinity offers some welcome gameplay wrinkles but it doesn't quite live up to the classic.

    When it comes to casual fun-filled games, The Big Journey offers a charming and delightful adventure that's decent to wind down with.

    Indie puzzle games don't get much more challenging and charming as Kine so if you're a genre fan then you need to give it a try.

    Those who prefer narrative gaming experiences will absolutely love their time with the eerie and engaging Worse Than Death.

    Even though Lost Castle features simple and typical gameplay, its multiplayer implementation and variety make it worthwhile.

    In the end, Harvest Moon: Mad Dash disappoints as a Harvest Moon game and as a puzzler. It definitely has some redeeming qualities but they're so minor when compared to the super-easy and humdrum gameplay that I simply can't recommend playing this silly spin-off.

    The Legend of Dark Witch was a blast back in 2014 and it's still a treat to play 5 years later. Whether you're new to the series or not, it's a must-play game for any 2D action game enthusiast.

    I imagine that less patient gamers will dismiss Mistover but once you let it hook you, it's a tough RPG to put down.

    Cat Quest II took what made the original special and amplified the fun with co-op multiplayer and a variety of enjoyable quests.

    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.

    Old-school beat 'em up fans will surely have some fun with Stay Cool, Kobayashi-San! but its repetitive and random nature definitely makes it an ultimately tedious and frustrating experience.

    Sturmwind EX is one of the best shmups available for modern consoles. It's clear that a lot of love and attention went into every detail of its gameplay and world and the result is one refined and super-satisfying arcade experience.

    If you like going deep into the lore of the Dungeons and Dragons multiverse then I can't think of a better game for you. However, if you're looking for fun gameplay, it's better to look elsewhere because Planescape Torment isn't a fun game; it's an immersive one and it tries to tell a story that's utterly depressing but in the end, we read it because we care about the mysterious nameless one.

    Those who want a simple platformer with oodles of replay value will get a lot of fun out of Bloo Kid 2 and its charming world.

    I can't think of a reason why anyone would want to play Blindy. From its irritating concept to its annoying gameplay, it's one bad game.
