Frontier Legends feels like a cynical cash grab, but it still has room to become something more.

Luna Abyss Review — Redeye

Playing*Luna Abyss is like glimpsing into the mind of a mad artist: it is at times beautiful, at times scary, and can certainly be polarizing.

Project Mist

Project Mist Early Access Review

Project Mist has its problems, but a dedicated dev team seems to be addressing them quickly, giving the game a promised potential.

Moonsigil Atlas is an incredible entry into the deckbuilding roguelike genre, reinventing familiar mechanics with a fun twist that fits in with the game's thematic elements beautifully.

Schrodinger's Cat Burglar

Schrodinger’s Cat Burglar Review — Feline Fine

Schrodinger's Cat Burglar combines a unique and quirky concept with Portal-like puzzle solving, creating brain teasers that are simultaneously challenging and yet unusually forgiving to new players.

Lumentale: Memories of Trey

Lumentale: Memories of Trey Review — EVOLVE!

Lumentale: Memories of Trey is a heavy hitter of a creature collector, doing everything fans love about the genre well and even expanding on core mechanics in its own ways.

The Caribou Trail

The Caribou Trail Review — Our B’ys

The Caribou Trail presents a strong story alongside some boring, tedious gameplay.

Call of the Elder Gods Review — A Yearning for Answers

Call of the Elder Gods is an excellent narrative-driven puzzle game that masters familiar Lovecraftian themes while taking its own, unique approach to the tone of the story.

Duck Side of the Moon

Duck Side of the Moon is a quacking good time: an adorable space-bound adventure with simple yet inviting mechanics, silly yet engaging writing, and the occasional shockingly emotional moment.

Wax Heads

Wax Heads Review — Find Your Record

Wax Heads is a gorgeous, short, beautiful game built around a simple and cozy gameplay loop.

Deadhaus Sonata Early Access Review

Deadhaus Sonata is incredibly promising, but I worry not all of its ambitious updates can be delivered in the time promised.

Directive 8020

Directive 8020 Review — We’re not Alone

Directive 8020 is a strong interactive narrative with some less-than-exciting gameplay.

SoulQuest

SoulQuest presents excellent beat-'em-up action mechanics, serving as a unique and exciting new entry to the character-action game genre.

Bus Bound

Bus Bound Review — Thank Your Driver

Bus Bound delivers some decent driving mechanics with excellent traffic AI, although the game struggles with the nuanced mechanics that make other simulator titles from Saber stand out.

Dead as Disco

Dead as Disco Early Access Review

Dead as Disco is an incredible and utterly unique experience that gives and then keeps on giving.

Bandit Trap

Bandit Trap Review — This is my House, I have to Defend it!

Bandit Trap is a critically underrated gem, one which injects some much-needed levity into the world of asymmetrical multiplayer games.

Tides of Tomorrow

Tides of Tomorrow Review — Looper

Tides of Tomorrow features an incredibly interesting mechanic and a unique setting, but both are undercut by poorly paced storytelling and a lack of deeper, engaging gameplay.
