Review

Hazel Sky Review

Hazel Sky offers a fresh breeze with a charming graphical style and engaging puzzles. It does suffer from a few issues like poor voice acting and a lacking script, however.

APICO Review

APICO is a beekeeping simulation based on crafting games and Minecraft mods. Overall, we enjoyed our time with APICO, but a few mechanics kept it from being a knockout.

Escape Academy Review

For those missing the good old fashioned escape rooms of the pre-covid era, Escape Academy delivers a top notch set of puzzles in an interesting setting, which unfortunately isn't explored any deeper.

Kao The Kangaroo Title Card
Review

Kao The Kangaroo Review

A couple of console generations have passed since the last time Kao The Kangaroo hopped into the scene. While that fact may give some nostalgic vibes for fans of this less-popular platformer mascot, it'll likely wear off after extensive time with its by-the-numbers design. For such a spry, young marsupial, it's rather ironic just how quickly Kao's tired tricks lose their luster.

Review

Fobia: St. Dinfna Hotel Review

Fobia: St. Dinfna Hotel is a decent enough game, but it tries too hard to imitate other games. With a bit more polish and less time spent aping more well-established horror games, it could have been something incredible.

Review

Silt Review

Spiral Circus' first title does enough to stand out from its immediate inspirations. Silt's art style stands out as one of 2022's best thus far and its possession gameplay concept is quite interesting, but it doesn't fully deliver on its promises. Whether considering its narrative or game design, it's wishing for something grander and more purposeful.

Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong Review

At its best, Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong is a complex take on a dialogue-based RPG. At its worst, it's like a terrible adventure game.
