Doggy Don’t Care Review — Bow Wow

Doggy Don't Care is a short but chaos-filled adventure where you terrorize your owner's home, explore new places, and pee on the carpet.

False Hero

False Hero Review — Wisdom and Death

Though I don't love the progression system in False Hero, the indie soulslike gets every other piece of the formula right.

Deified

Deified Review — Lost Treasures

Deified is a solid turn-based combat roguelike that should appeal to fans of the genre, but may not have much reach outside of its intended audience.

EverRail Early Access Review

EverRail has some fresh ideas in a genre that desperately needs them, but has a lot of work to be done before it shines.

Leafy Corner is a fun, small, relaxing plant management game, albeit one where the simplicity grows old quickly.

Welcome to Elderfield easily shines as one of the most unique titles in its genre, while still delivering the familiar mechanics and gameplay loops that fans have come to expect.

Orc Incremental Review — Orcremental

Orc Incremental is fun when it picks up the pace, but said pacing can feel really slow at times, something made all the more true by the game's repetitive nature.

Dragonsword: Awakening Review — Mercenary Heroes

Dragonsword: Awakening offers all the fun of a gacha MMO without any microtransactions.

BioEden

BioEden Review — 4X Conservation

BioEden is a fun environmentalist twist on the 4X genre, but it lacks replayability.

Halloween: The Game

Halloween: The Game Review — Death has come to your little town, Sheriff.

Halloween: The Game has flaws, but should still prove to be a fun multiplayer horror experience.

Memoirium

Memoirium confidently executes the aesthetic of the dreamworld, feeling like a lucid-yet-violent walk through a distant reality accessed only in the late hours of the night.
