A surprisingly compelling soulslike despite quite a bit of jank. World is cool & very pretty. Combat is easy but enjoyable. Disappointing amount of invisible walls, and overall a bit clunky, but fun.

Can’t blame them, but someone clearly loves Bloodborne. Thymesia is cool and like a lot of new soulslikes, has a bunch of neat ideas, but somehow feels like less than the sum of its parts. Decent.

Everything about this seems like it should be amazing, but for me it somehow falls short and is less than the sum of its parts. Movement less slippery and combat more engaging would go a long way.

2.5D sidescrolling Kurosawa-inspired combat, which at times is challenging and rewarding but can also feel imprecise and frustrating. Excellent visuals and clever composition. Definitely worth a look.

Sadly not able to play this on the Steamdeck it was designed for, but can imagine it’d be a fun little demo. Its nice seeing Valve having fun with their franchises & actually making stuff. Worth a go.

Feels like a roguelite Borderlands. Starts slow but ramps up in difficulty nicely. Way more fun with friends. I wish combat had a bit more depths and more detailed stats, but it’s a nice little game.

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.

Strangely mismarketed as a Destiny competitor, but in reality more of ‘just’ a co-op adventure shooter than ongoing MMO. Some very smart ideas, but doesn’t stick the landing.

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.

Expectedly more of the same, but surprisingly, I actually don’t mind it. Can see why people call it DLC, but the balance it strikes of realistic and stylised environments is nice. Writing is very avg.
