    If Obey Me's many elements culminated in a more focused combat system then it would have been a must-have arena brawler.

    Myths of Orion: Light from the North takes a somewhat fantastical approach with its otherwise standard adventure game formula to create a memorable and magical adventure that'll appeal to anyone who enjoys retro-inspired point and click tales.

    If you enjoy experimenting within your games only to watch the results of your experiments expand the game world then Slime Rancher is an ideal game for you. On the other hand, everyone else will find little to like about this cute sim.

    It's a funny and chaotic Kunio-kun-inspired soccer romp but Strange Field Football could use a bit more structure and fine-tuning.

    Those who enjoy Epic Dumpster Bear's humour will surely have a good time with JankBrain yet it remains a bit rough around the edges.

    As a Choose Your Own Adventure style narrative, Cinders is a wonderful experience but it doesn't quite feel like a full video game.

    The neon sights and off-the-wall premise of Razed make it stand out as a unique and enjoyable indie. However, its reliance on memorization makes mastering its stages eventually become more tedious than fun.

    Gamers who relish old-school experiences complete with unfair deaths will certainly find a lot to like about Bard's Gold. Unfortunately, modern gamers who prefer more streamlined games will likely get too annoyed with this one.

    Quest Hunter is one of those games that you'll wind down with after a long day as you chip away at its many side-quests and dungeons.

    If the idea of a 2D platform shooter roguelike with minimalist visuals appeals to you then Gonner: Blueberry Edition will be a welcome addition to your gaming library. Just keep in mind; easily frustrated gamers need not apply.

    With nifty mechanics and a rewarding sense of challenge, Cat Souls is a worthwhile indie despite its rather clunky and inconsistent feel.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's cute, simple, and entertaining but Kitten Island unfortunately doesn't quite live up to the classic 2D platformers of the NES era.

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

    Doodle Derby is an enjoyable indie with a surprising amount of creativity but its often frustrating controls regularly spoil the fun.

    As someone who's enjoyed the previous couple of Dungeon Defenders games a lot, I must say that Awakened is quite a disappointing experience. Although it retains the familiar formula and includes cool modes, it's still an undeniably clunky iteration of the franchise.

    Mastering the stages in Robots under attack! regularly requires a lot of patience which makes it a fun albeit sometimes irritating game.

    By providing a rewarding adventure that features nifty mini-games, Black Rainbow is a worthwhile albeit dated point-and-click game.

    It may not be the most refined fighter but Synaptic Drive's highly configurable mechanics and retro aesthetic make it worth playing.

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

    I'm truly happy that The Rocky Horror Show Video Game exists but as a game, it doesn't really do much to hold your attention.

    In the end, Many Faces: Console Edition is a solid game to pick up and play whenever you want a quick arcade shooting fix.

    I mostly enjoyed my time with MiniGhost as it does a solid job of offering a simple and satisfying Metroidvania adventure.

    Although it's generic and frequently frustrating, Woodle Tree 2: Deluxe is still a delightful game that 3D platformer fans can enjoy.

    It may be on the basic side of the shmup spectrum but there is some fun to be had in Hexapoda in its non-linear insect-blasting journey.

    Days of Doom has a promising premise yet its mix of genres doesn't accomplish anything exceptional beyond its unique cast of characters.

    Some classic arcade games haven't quite held up and although G-LOC: Air Battle is one such game; it still offers some short-lived fun.

    Backpack Hero is a novel game that can be enjoyable at first but its awkward controls and repetitive dungeons get stale rather quickly.

    Ultimately, Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath is a decent expansion. It has a solid story and the additional characters are a welcome addition but none of it is as good as the base game. In the end, Aftermath just might be asking a little too much from fans.

    It may not look like much but there's a lot going on in Catch a Duck so mastering its tricky stages can be quite fun.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The roguelike nature of Nova Strike is the best thing going for it because unfortunately, its core gameplay isn't all that entertaining.
