Tactical RPG storyboard with fantastic characters, artstyle and music. Quite challenging at times, which fits with its dramatic, larger than life tone. Doesn’t outstay it’s welcome. Really good.

More of the same from the Far Cry formula; which is still strong and fun - assuming there’s an engaging world & plot, as there is here. Not quite as strong as #3, but worth playing.

A twitchy arena shooter that captures the spirit of games like QuakeWorld really well. Reflex is really well done, but I think this genre has sadly had it’s day.

A psychedelic FPS rogue-like which is simple but unique. Short but intense and challenging.

A simple but mostly well executed puzzle game with an interesting story, a good level of variety and great soundtrack.

At the time a very unique perspective on the horror game wherein you play as a toddler. Thematically it’s pretty strong, it’s tense but not overly scary, quite short and worth a buy if on sale.

Supergiant’s debut game, and what a game it is. A 2D isometric RPG which is tonnes of fun, has gorgeous visuals, a great soundtrack and famously brilliant narration. Must play.
