Platform: PC (Microsoft Windows)

Behemoth’s crazy, typically absurd & funny take on a simple tactical RPG. Great characters, world and the usual quality animation. Fun with a friend if a little repetitive eventually.

RUINER is a brutal action shooter with an insanely cool aesthetic, great music and engaging characters. Controls can be a bit frustrating on gamepads.

Pyre is not for everyone, but the Supergiant hallmarks of amazing worldbuilding, dialog, art direction and interesting mechanics are all here. This is their most different game, but no less brilliant.

Unassuming, difficult classic platformer - it’s not really a rogue-like, but there is certainly permadeath. There’s a charming physicality to the movement and combat, and it’s overall worth a play.

Dark, varied, complex, addictive and unforgiving. If you like turnbased RPGs, just get it - no question. When I first played I could not stop myself from saying aloud “this game is so fucking good.”

An unassuming and simple game with tonnes of replayability.

On the surface cute and fun, but ultimately a warm, sad story of anxiety and alienation. Slow at times, but witty and great to look at. Wonderful atmosphere, music and writing.

A spiritual successor to LIMBO, taking everything they’re good at and doing it better. Puzzles, art direction, sound design, environmental storytelling. INSIDE is dark, unexpected and brilliant.

At launch, fresh and exciting. A level of polish and characterisation not really seen in PVP-focused shooters before. Devolved a bit over time, seemingly driven by meta enforcement, unsure whether to target the pro or casual scene.

Short but utterly brilliant. Go in blind, but be prepared for a very strange, funny and unique experience.
