Honestly surprising it took as long as it did for this game to happen. Third person, Foddian, Twitch-bait. Not my thing, but it fills a hole in the market and meets expectations. The (since replaced) asset-flip stuff was p bad.

At a time, Overwatch was a paradigm-shifting juggernaut: beautiful art, Blizzard-at-its-best character & world design, and satisfying gunplay. More recently, this so-called sequel is a soulless shell and testament to bad management.

Creatively presented indie platformer with super fast, fluid and rewarding movement. The art direction and animations are unique and very well done. Bosses are great, difficulty spikes a bit oddly.

By all reports not a good PC port, but otherwise an impressive visual feast and surprisingly fun at least for a short period. I never got overly into the franchise, but this does a lot right and is quite charming.

Has come a pretty long way since its predecessor was “just an attempt at a soulslike with guns”. Fantastic visual and sound design, great characterisation and world design. Way more fun with friends.

Expands on everything from the first one, and fixes some of the annoyances. Short, sweet and super sick - play it before it gets banned in Australia, like the first one. #FREEUZZI 🚬

I’m not a fighting games expert, but SF6 is pretty to look at and fun to play. By all accounts, also manages to bring some balance and spirit back to the franchise, appeasing newcomers and pros alike.

Extraordinarily good art, great music and very well put together. Runs are challenging; there’s quite a lot of cognitive load and mistakes are punished hard - but it’s fun as hell.

Boba is an incremental gamejam entry, but it’s from Daniel Mullins… so you should know to expect the unexpected. Not much can be said without spoiling it, and it’s only about 10-15 minutes, so just play it. Love.

A must-play for any puzzle game enthusiast. What first appear to be simple puzzles are elegantly designed, without tricks or annoying ‘gotchas’. Probably one of the best puzzle games ever made.
