Stylish, frenetic, satisfying and addictive. Combat is like a puzzle; often requiring multiple runs through a room to find routes that enable effective & efficient rotation through pickups. Very fun.

Very exciting early access roguelike absolutely brimming with potential. Wish the movement was a bit more fluid, but is still very satisfying. Expectedly has a long way to go, but is one to watch.

Really creative mechanically, combining classic pinball with topdown bullethell ‘combat’. Visuals are great, is music too - but like the game itself can get a bit repetitive. Worth it for the concept.

Beautiful, short interactive story made in Melbourne. Likely too twee for a lot of people, but I really like it and am glad it came across from mobile.

FPS RPG with a beautiful setting and great environmental storytelling. Lacks in memorable characters a bit and at times narrative drive, but still a very strong game and likely an instant classic.

Addictive and exciting early access start to a new roguelike. Unique movement & approach to combat are at the heart of this one, which will likely continue to raise the skill ceiling as its develops.

It’s tempting to call this Papers, Please for TV broadcasting instead of immigration documents, but it would be unfair. Won’t be for everyone but is executed very well; enthralling, funny and clever.

Wonderful settings and cool artstyle is let down by at times painfully average voice acting. Relaxing and intriguing, worth a play if you’re down for a chill exploration game.

Super fresh & unique take on the somewhat tired space thriller genre. Quite a compelling story and pretty good voice acting coupled with surprisingly creative mechanics. Very good.

Highly polished for an early access game; Deep Rock Galactic is a very fun mining and combat co-op game that does almost everything right, I just wish there was more variation in biomes and enemies.
