Dice Legacy
I can't fault Dice Legacy's style, but this deckbuilding puzzle game disguised as a city builder is mostly an exercise in furious, tooth-grinding frustration.
Wildermyth
Wildermyth is a turn-based tactical RPG, but it's also a brilliant story factory, and one of the best games you'll play.
Wildermyth
A legend-building RPG that deserves to define the next decade.
Unto the End
I'd say "I'm sorry, Unto", but I'm really not sorry because I hate this sluggish, clumsy little arsehole and I wish he'd stayed dead the first time. Some of you will like him (and it's worth giving it a go via Game Pass to see if you do). But that's...
The Falconeer
Since my first few hours with The Falconeer, I’ve been tempted to express the sentiment that it has tremendous sequel potential. The only reason I hesitated to lead with that is the worry that it could be taken the wrong way; it could come across as damningly faint praise, or...
Post Void
Sure, I remember the Reservoir Dogs-ish tentacly not-men in suits, and that they switch to Hotline Miami style white suits later. I remember some bitey things chasing me on tottering legs. There are flying manhack things, but they could look like anything. I am aware of what I'm doing, but...
Cloudpunk
That might seem surprising, but you really have to see it moving. It's unspeakably pretty. There's one bit where you're taken up a whole city tier, via a long platform lift, while having a conversation with Control as you climb past endless layers of catwalks, roads, and railways, all bustling...
Yes, Your Grace
I've enjoyed Yes, Your Grace. It's a pretty game, and the story and subplots have some nice details and solid surprises. I like how you can hear distant armies chanting in the intro, torches in your bedchamber, and the hubbub of the streets from your throne room. The cheerful "Wey!"...
Corruption 2029
But most of the game is stealth and most of your options are not stealthy. As many players of Mutant Year Zero observed, that game was largely a puzzle game with a small shootout at the end, and Corruption 2029's structure is very much cut from the same cloth. Taking...
Coffee Talk
Feeling comfortable and provided for is important. That's not really a truth that Coffee Talk explicitly gets into, but it's fundamentally what it's about. It could have been longer, it could have been more substantial and dramatic. But it's a good way to relax for a few hours.
It's hard not to keep coming back to that. Should a patch fix the saves, or at least the skipping issue (and it bloody should), I'd recommend this one, with the caveat that it's no RPG. Vampire: The Masquerade - Coteries of New York is essentially a collection of subplots...
Superliminal
Superliminal is more like a tour than anything. And again, I'm impressed that its visual tricks work so well - but I just didn't feel all that motivated by either them or the narrative. Its setting worked as an excuse for its reality-warping oddness, but was otherwise squandered. I can...
