Deckbuilding roguelite escape room ARG. An inspiring masterpiece & wonderfully executed ode to card/videogames. If you’re into that kind of thing, it’s a must play. So, so impressive. Mullins is nuts.
Could probably afford to be a little shorter: not as many options as I would’ve liked, yet it takes a while to get through. Great VO and cool story - not exactly the game I expected, but still good.
Death’s Door is a triumph: combat & movement are tight and dynamic, the level design is great, the art and music are fantastic, enemies and bosses are interesting. Really well-rounded and executed.
A tight, stylised & skilful first person s̶h̶o̶o̶t̶e̶r̶ thrower which is as fast as it is gratifying. Combat is awkward at first but soon clicks & feels great. Its relatively short length is spot-on.
Incredibly pretty little isometric puzzler. Never becomes particularly challenging, but the latter sections are a tad tedious. Didn’t expect the heartfelt story. Genuinely hope they make more!
Underrated. Brimming with ambition & scope, while it doesn’t hit the mark all the time, it’s still a blast. Had some balance and pacing issues at launch which have since been fixed. Gorgeous and fun.
At the micro, QOL level: more of the same but better. At the macro: a bit strangely paced and lacks some of the motivational drive. Absolutely worth a play, but I was just a little disappointed.
Great art & soundtrack, and generally does what it says on the tin - point n click, hidden object comfy exploration. The pacing is a little strange and it’s all a little shallow though sadly.
A short narrative piece with minimal gameplay, heavily driven by Cohen-brothers-esque dialogue and tense introspection. The character assets felt a bit tonally out of place, but otherwise super solid.
Very cozy yet addictive little tile strategy/puzzle game. Don’t let its simple primary mechanic(s) fool you - there’s quite a bit to explore here. Very pretty and tightly executed.
