    If you have a fondness for classic Game Boy games then you'll have a nostalgia-fueled good time with the fun yet simplistic Dogurai.

    Despite its crazy premise, Kawaii Deathu Desu is a simple game that's a fun distraction between more substantial gaming sessions.

    If you want to enjoy a laidback shoot 'em up without all the stress usually involved in the genre then you'll surely have some fun here.

    In short, Grimvalor would have been a great 2D Souls-like if it featured a steeper level of challenge and more visceral combat.

    If more time was poured into Boulder Dash 30th Anniversary's aesthetics and polish then it would be an excellent old-school experience.

    Surviving underwater sure is a grueling affair and Shinsekai Into the Depths portrays it in a thoroughly immersive and enjoyable way.

    The wacky corporate world of Good Job! is so much fun to play around within that I highly recommend it to any sandbox puzzler fan.

    Simply put, TY the Tasmanian Tiger HD will make you feel like it's 2002 all over again. For fans of retro 3D platformers, this is a wonderful thing although modern gamers may find it to be a bit too old-school to thoroughly enjoy.

    I enjoyed my time with One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 yet it doesn't quite offer a wholly fresh and exciting gameplay formula. So, if you're happy with more of the same albeit with flashy visuals and cool special moves then you should give it a go.

    In the end, Resident Evil: Resistance is a passable yet unremarkable multiplayer game. Playing as a mastermind offers more amusement but being a survivor is too dependent on communication which can be a problem. Even if you're playing under ideal conditions, it sadly loses its appeal very quickly. Specifically, it's not a bad game but it's certainly hard to recommend for long-term play.

    In the end, escape room enthusiasts will find a lot to love in the gorgeously atmospheric and puzzle-filled The Room VR: A Dark Matter.

    In the virtual world, being bad often feels good so if you want to stick it to a bunch of medieval villagers then you'll love Good Goliath.

    It pleases me to say that Final Assault may just be the best real-time strategy game that you can play in VR. What a great experience.

    Playing Paper Beast is like experiencing a Tim Burton style fever dream that'll keep you perplexed and intrigued throughout.

    Simply put, Battle Rockets is a basic multiplayer shmup battle game that lacks some necessary interesting gameplay wrinkles.

    Diadra Empty is a fast-paced, super-fun, and challenging shooter that'll make you see projectile patterns for long after you turn it off.

    Syder Reloaded is the complete package when it comes to modern arcade shooting action and it's one tough game to put down.

    Red Death is a solid pick-up-and-play arcade shooter but one that you likely won't go back to after giving it a handful of attempts.

    Rainbows, Toilets & Unicorns is a ridiculous game but once you put the spectacle aside, you're left with a mostly standard shmup.

    Taking its off-the-wall sense of humour into account or not, there's no denying that Freedom Finger is a great shmup in every sense.

    If you have a silly sense of humour then you'll love Cat Girl Without Salad: Amuse-Bouche but don't expect it to be a top-notch shmup.

    With a lovely presentation and unique gameplay that you can enjoy with a friend, Sky Racket is a must-have indie for any retro lover.

    As a solo game, Totally Reliable Delivery Service falls flat but playing it with friends makes for a fun-filled cooperative formula.

    When it comes to arcade-inspired fun, Snakeybus is definitely a fantastic game but it falls a little flat once the novelty wears off.

    With so many superior games inspired by XCOM out there, Element Space's buggy and tedious battles simply don't measure up.

    HyperParasite is basically the same game as Hellmut: The Badass from Hell but it's still a ton of fun; if not, more so.

    Its premise may be unique and somewhat rewarding but the way Curious Expedition executes it leaves a lot of room for improvement.

    Panzer Dragoon: Remake is a solid take on the classic Sega Saturn shooter. Hardcore fans may find that certain aspects changed for the worse while newcomers may be perplexed by its barebones approach yet it's hard not to enjoy your time with this on-rails remake.

    Remnant: From the Ashes is one of the better ARPGs released in recent years so if you enjoy Souls-like campaigns or third-person shooters in general then I'm sure you'll have an enjoyable time mowing down the monsters that lurk in its post-apocalyptic world.

    If you can look past the aesthetics of Disaster Report 4, there's a bunch of fun to be had escaping the broken city and helping out the residents as you struggle to survive and hopefully make your way home.
