Trivia Murder Party III is not only the third entry in the franchise, but the first one released as a standalone, fully independent of the developer's traditional release format.

Kernel Hearts reeks of mediocrity throughout and, ironically, lacks any real heart.

By day, Blackwood is an exciting new third-person action game that promises to give you the chance to feel like a proper John Wick. By night, it’s a complete pile of trash that is so broken and boring that you’ll want to hire an assassin to put you out of your misery if you decide to spend any money or time on Act 1 of this game.

Shroom and Gloom is, well, gloomy, foreboding, hopeless, and dreadful; perfectly so, I should say. You may not know exactly how you’ve found yourself in these dark, thorny tunnels…but you’re absolutely positive that you need to get out now, now, right now.

If you’re looking to play WheelMates with a friend in the same room via 2-player splitscreen, you’re in for a great time, and I’m happy to tell you all about what that experience is like.

Despite its playful yet self-deprecating title, Yet Another Zombie Survivors isn't just that, and even though I'm not well versed in the genre, I was astounded by how much I enjoyed this game.

gunplay across branching paths and more than 10 unique levels packed with enemies, bosses, secrets, and even arena-style combat sections reminiscent of the All-Range Mode from the Star Fox series.

First - the obvious. Duskfade is gorgeous. The artists who made it clearly worked overtime, as every environment looks resolutely stunning and full of color. The animation work is also tremendous and makes this look and feel like the work of a major developer and not a small studio releasing their first title.

It's apparently fallen to an indie developer, Refugium Games, to pick up the mantle. And while Agefield High: Rock the School sounds like a name ChatGPT would come up with if you told it to impersonate Jack Black from the early 2000s, does the game underneath manage to fill the nostalgic shoes of its spiritual predecessor?

Replicant D6 is set to launch Agent 64: Spies Never Die this week, promising action-packed shootouts and gun-blazing espionage that takes us straight back to the '90s.

Akatori centers on Mako, a young girl wielding a magical staff and tasked with ending the toxic Amber Storms plaguing her world. This is no ordinary staff, either. Sealed within it is a magical bird, fittingly named Akatori. Hey, that’s the title of the game!

: Big Walk is exclusively a cooperative online multiplayer game. Absolutely no part of it aside from the tiny opening hub area is remotely playable with only one player, and couch co-op is intentionally not included for reasons that will become clear shortly.

What the hell is Truxton Extreme? No, it's not the name of Elon Musk's latest kid - good guess, though. Instead, it's a surprising new entry in a series many have likely never heard of: a shoot-'em-up arcade title known simply as Truxton (or Tatsujin in Japan, meaning “expert”).

For all the similarities Kusan shares with the game that inspired it, the story isn’t one of them. Developer CIRCLEfromDOT delivers an in‑your‑face narrative wrapped in gorgeous comic‑panel artwork, yet the substance underneath doesn’t quite keep pace.

Much like the original, Tormentum II doesn’t aim to reinvent the fleshy, alienesque wheel, so to speak.

Tears of Metal is a game that allows you to do just that while fighting alongside your Scottish forces to reclaim your home from foreign invaders. So you get to wear a kilt and have a short commute!

Lifted is a game whose intentions are pure—to take the normally quite morose cinematic platformer genre popularized by Inside, Limbo, Planet of Lana, and others, and give it a colorful, family-friendly setting with a Pixar-esque vibe.

IVE or DIE - Children of Rain, capitalizes its verbs for good reason: death is constantly tugging at your sleeve and the only way to swat it away for one more day is to brave the perilous depths of what-used-to-be human civilization.

Folks, I'm afraid to be the bearer of bad news today. Gaming has peaked. This is it - there's nowhere to go but down. And you can thank Heave Ho 2 for this, because with its release we finally have a game that allows you to fart on your friends as a dedicated feature.

Desktop Explorer blends puzzles with outdated software and cryptic files that you must sift through and even modify to find out what is actually going on in this weirdly sentient computer. It has been left behind by your uncle, who has recently passed away, and is full of notes and information that he left behind for you to look through. The computer also comes with an odd software called "Desktop Explorer," which houses different adventure-style quests.
