A hand-drawn metroidvania about umbrella combat, talent-show boss fights and an in-game social network, reviewed on launch day — six years after it was first announced as a very different game on a very different platform.
6.5 / 10
A hero-collecting idle RPG with real longevity behind it — five years in Early Access, fifteen-plus progression systems and no priced Steam DLC — undercut by a currency count that outgrows the player's patience and a guild structure that quietly punishes anyone without an active group.
6.5 / 10
The gather-craft-expand loop that launched a hundred imitators, and one of the most effective opening hours in any game of its type. It's also been abandoned since 2020 with a promised multiplayer mode that never arrived — and it still sells at full price.
6.5 / 10
An active clicker where pickaxes are forbidden and bombs do all the digging, chaining explosive ore reactions across a cute 8x8 pixel mine — well liked by a genuinely international audience, with two specific complaints, an achievement bug and a rough endgame mode, showing up independently across different languages.
6.5 / 10
A solo-developed BL suspense visual novel about cannibalism, class and a very literal kind of appetite, two days into Early Access with zero Steam reviews yet — reviewed on the developer's own Early Access FAQ, patch history and a genuinely positive 18-month demo record.
6.5 / 10
A coin-flipping incremental that dresses up Cookie Clicker's core loop in casino iconography, then undercuts its own momentum with a broken mid-tier economy and a prestige system that punishes curiosity.
6.5 / 10
A short, gleefully mean-spirited incremental game about getting rich by making pollution worse — genuinely funny in its first half hour, and honest that there isn't much more than that first half hour to find.
6.5 / 10
Tango Gameworks' supernatural open-world action game remains Very Positive across more than 20,000 Steam reviews for its genuinely striking, densely realised recreation of Tokyo — undercut by a real, remarkably consistent "beautiful but repetitive" complaint about its combat and side content, and by a specific, unusual, dateable controversy this review can confirm directly: Bethesda added Denuvo DRM to the game roughly a year after launch, bundled inside what its own update was billed as free content.
6.5 / 10
A medieval cemetery sim with a tech tree the size of a small factory game and a sense of humour about corpse disposal. Also the only game I've reviewed where a player says they finished it out of hatred — and where the community's fix is a mod list that removes the walking.
6.5 / 10
A dark fantasy skilling idle RPG that layers roaming named bosses and a weekly rhythm of world-changing "Blessings" on top of a structure several of its own reviewers, across four languages, independently call a close read of Melvor Idle — right down to the 99 skill cap.
6.5 / 10
A brutally tense, atmospheric co-op horror shooter built entirely around four-player coordination — undercut for years by the one thing it never properly solved: no server browser or real matchmaking, leaving solo players locked out unless they already have a premade squad.
6.5 / 10
A guild-management idle RPG with FF12-style Tactics scripting and concurrent party automation, whose launch performance crisis was corroborated by players across four language communities — and whose developer's rapid, well-documented patching earned real goodwill from many of the same players who first reported it.
6.5 / 10
The Dealer returns, and this time he's dealing cards over a bullet heaven. The card layer is the most interesting thing in the genre right now; the horde layer underneath it hasn't worked out how to make you feel powerful yet — and the deckbuilding in its own tagline is still on the roadmap.
6.5 / 10
A genuinely distinctive, hardcore 100-player WWII shooter built around resource-based meta-strategy and a dynamically shifting front line, still Very Positive across nearly 150,000 Steam reviews five years on — undercut by a real, sustained, multi-year complaint that Team17's 2023 acquisition of the game brought a persistent decline in update quality, and a genuine, currently active cheating problem several reviewers describe as severe enough to have driven entire dedicated communities away.
6.5 / 10
A dark-fantasy dungeon crawler that spent 2022 as an underappreciated curiosity and 2025 as a giveaway ahead of its sequel — and the two waves of reviews it produced tell almost opposite stories about the same game.
6.5 / 10
The comfort-game renovation sim that made cleaning and decorating genuinely satisfying — weighed down by a progress-erasing bug reviewers have reported for years and a sprawling paid DLC ecosystem that locks most of the game's achievements behind it.
6.5 / 10
A co-op horror-comedy about hauling wrong-looking wildlife through a national park that shouldn't exist, held back from the genre's top table by a punishment mechanic that erases a night's work for reasons the player often can't see coming.
6.5 / 10
A tense, atmospheric PvPvE bounty-hunting shooter that rebuilt itself on a new engine and a fixed 1896 setting — and split a deeply devoted, thousand-hour community right down the middle over whether the relaunch was a genuine improvement or a betrayal of what made the original special.
6.5 / 10
The officially licensed D&D idle game turns line-up positioning into a real tactical puzzle, then buries that good idea under one of the most persistent monetisation engines in the idle genre.
6.5 / 10
A budget dark-fantasy clicker where you tap cultists back into worshipers with a cross, told across twelve moody pixel-art areas — handsome and short enough not to overstay its welcome, but dogged by accusations that its loop is a close reskin of another incremental.
6.5 / 10
A fruit-merging incremental that wears its debt to Gnorp Apologue openly and executes the formula well enough to earn Very Positive reviews, undercut mainly by a name that promises more hands-off progress than the game is actually willing to give.
6.5 / 10
A NZ$5.99 solo-developed idle RPG that builds a genuinely large xianxia cultivation ladder — four realms, twelve stages, a reincarnation-and-soul-perk prestige loop — undercut by a recurring, still-unresolved save-corruption bug and a depth ceiling its own most invested players describe hitting after two or three lifetimes.
6.5 / 10
A post-apocalyptic idle game built around a genuine grid-inventory puzzle rather than a spreadsheet of upgrade buttons, undercut by a prestige system that does the math against itself and timers that make "idle" feel like the wrong word for long stretches of it.
6.5 / 10
A three-day-old idle ARPG from Chinese solo studio TUNA TUN that docks a full loot-and-buildcraft game — skill trees, randomised affixes, gem sockets, a 50-level dungeon path and an infinite Ascension ladder above it — into a fixed panel in the corner of your screen, undercut by an immovable window, a tedious itemisation flow and freeze bugs its nine early reviewers are already naming.
