I really liked Oxenfree and was pretty keen for this… and I did enjoy it, but a lot of the comedy didn’t land with me and at times the pacing was pretty drawn out. Would still recommend though.

Roguelite, deckbuilding, dice-rolling fun. Really clever design that surprisingly works a lot better than you’d think. Presentation belies its complexity at times.

Challenging, twitchy bossrush game with the combat elements you’d expect: slash, parry, dash, etc. Boss design is varied and tight, as are the controls. Aesthetics are pretty cool too.

I fucking love Blendo’s story games. Brendon Chung is so clever and funny, I will play everything he puts out. Quadrilateral Cowboy is no exception, but has the standard roughness around the edges.

Really, really good co-op game that actually requires co-operation and will test you communication. Graphics and puzzles are much improved here. Great to play with people not that into videogames.

Good co-op game that actually requires co-operation and will test your communication. Decent sequel, but suffers from one players side being a lot more passive.

Strong start to the series - really good co-op game that actually requires co-operation and will test your communication. Great to play with people not that into videogames.

Not for everyone by virtue of its hyper minimalism, but a treat of exploration and simplistic Soulsy combat. Short little experience which can be completed in one sitting.

Well, someone sure liked Bioshock! Personally I found this ultimately a little too long, frustrating and disappointing - but overall still very engaging. The visuals and VA are certainly remarkable.

Twitch-bait masochism simulator in the vein of Getting Over It. The simplicity is attractive, but unless you’re into those kind of intentionally frustrating, annoying and difficult games - stay away.
