An action-adventure set across ancient Mesopotamian bazaars and palaces, mixing stealth, archery, and melee combat with light RPG progression, whose Mostly Positive review sample praises its atmosphere, story, and music while repeatedly flagging janky combat, dated animation, and performance problems well below what its trailers promised.
3 / 10
DINOGOD's debut mech-western, a farming sim bolted onto Armored Core-flavoured combat, earns a genuinely Mixed reception -- reviewers love its heartfelt story, voice acting, and setting, but a large share describe combat, controls, and pacing that never shake off a rough, unfinished feel.
3 / 10
A free pixel-art clicker from developer E-Crew, built on the same chest-and-card "idle collectible" template as Adventure Communist and Cell to Singularity, abandoned six weeks after its March 2023 launch.
3 / 10
Booming Tech's own developer FAQ promised this would not be a standalone game and would build on existing Conqueror's Blade characters. It shipped a week ago as a separate free Steam app with its own client, a gacha wall in front of core unit progression, and no siege matchmaking at launch — and 15% of roughly 1,950 Steam reviews are positive.
3 / 10
Ron Gilbert's Terrible Toybox trades point-and-click adventures for a vertically scrolling afterlife roguelite, and a Mostly Positive review sample enjoys its pixel art, humour, and Steam Deck-friendly pick-up-and-play loop, but a large share finds the runs shallow and repetitive well before the credits.
3 / 10
A cute, anime-styled bullet-heaven survivors-like whose Mostly Positive review sample praises a satisfying dual-weapon skill loop and an intense floor-based endless mode, but is repeatedly undercut by complaints about weak sound design, missing auto-aim, and -- in one specific, detailed review -- AI-generated character art.
3 / 10
A budget dungeon crawler whose store page promises "endless procedurally generated dungeons," while every reviewer who has actually bought it describes roughly four fixed rooms, a death bug, and no way to quit the game without closing it through Windows.
3 / 10
A co-op action roguelite with genuinely excellent combat that's been badly let down by thin content, negligible meta-progression, and a full price that most of its own reviewers say doesn't match what's on offer.
3 / 10
A flashy, combo-driven hack-and-slash roguelite that most of its reviewers call genuinely fun to play, undercut by a sprawling, overlapping rune-currency system some find satisfyingly deep and others call an inscrutable mess, plus rough voice mixing and a year of apparent silence from the developer since its last patch.
3 / 10
Starmoon Cat's pixel-art Brotato-like survives its own influences with charming presentation and satisfying wave combat, but a Very Positive review sample flags a flat difficulty curve, samey weapon builds, and a worryingly thin post-launch update cadence.
3 / 10
A minimalist joke game with exactly one rule — don't touch anything, and the timer keeps climbing — that earned genuine goodwill as a free curiosity but exposes how little there is to actually evaluate once real money enters the equation.
3 / 10
A NZ$2.99 co-op horror game built around the Italian "brainrot" AI meme character Tung Tung Tung Sahur, SAHUR: Escape Together posts a Very Positive review score that is heavily inflated by ironic, joke-format reviews from meme-culture visitors, while its smaller pool of substantive reviews describes a cheap, buggy asset flip built on borrowed AI-generated content.
3 / 10
Positive Concept Games' loving homage to SNES-era classics like Illusion of Gaia, Soul Blazer, and Secret of Mana earns Very Positive reviews for its nostalgic charm, art, and local co-op, but a meaningful share of the same sample calls its combat stiff and repetitive and its unskippable dialogue a real drag on pacing.
3 / 10
A full-price stealth-platformer built around Middle-earth's most compelling supporting character that arrived so technically broken it became a byword for launch disasters — its Steam player count hit zero within five months, and the studio that made it closed its development arm weeks after release.
3 / 10
A two-day-old NZ$7.89 Steam release whose name promises a multiplayer battle royale but whose own store page describes a single-player wave shooter against AI soldiers, with zero user reviews, zero recorded concurrent players and a disclosed AI-generated-asset credit.

Way to Hell 2 New Era is a short, cheap first-person shooter that a few reviewers enjoy for exactly what it is, but a cluster of detailed reviews accuses the developer, Valkeala Software, of the same unlicensed asset-flip pattern documented elsewhere in its catalog, plus new, more serious claims of achievement padding and suspected paid positive reviews.

Read review of Way to Hell 2 New Era Review: A Cheap Shooter With a Familiar, Troubling Signature
A budget-priced 2D platformer from solo developer CSStudios, Cursedland is openly described by its own developer as a school project, and a large, overwhelmingly corroborated share of its review sample argues it should never have been sold as a finished product, citing undisclosed AI-generated code and music, broken achievements, and game-breaking bugs that can leave a run permanently uncompleteable.
2.5 / 10
An extraction shooter that charges you twice Last Remains asks players to survive a zombie-overrun city, scavenging loot, fighting off both the undead and rival human survivors, an
2.5 / 10
Snow Survival is a $4.99 no-tutorial survival game built around a blunt 300-second endurance challenge, but its sole review, a detailed refund report, describes a design this review's own achievement data appears to confirm as nearly unbeatable, and the developer's own week-one roadmap post admits only a tiny fraction of players have survived it at all.
2.5 / 10
UnderRed is a free-to-play team-based FPS from developer Cyber AI CO.,LTD. promising 5v5 and free-for-all combat for up to 8 players, but this review's full 5-review sample splits 2:3 negative, with multiple reviewers reporting an empty player base propped up by standing AI bots and a long list of rough mechanical edges.
2.3 / 10
A budget desert survival-action game that promises a harsh, dangerous world to fight through but delivers three barely-connected levels most reviewers finish in well under twenty minutes, bloated into a suspiciously oversized install and populated by enemies several reviewers describe as frozen statues, with a geographic naming dispute drawing further, entirely separate controversy on top of an already damning consensus.
2 / 10
A cheap dark-fantasy dual-blade action RPG whose handful of substantive reviews describe an unpolished, half-empty world -- stiff character animation, invisible walls, AI-generated loading art, and a story one reviewer calls pulled from thin air -- with barely any of its own achievement-tracked players reaching the later story beats.
