Scratch Inc.

A free scratch-card incremental with 91% positive reviews, median playtimes near 100 hours — and an achievement called "Reviewed" that 40% of its owners have unlocked. The engagement is real. So is the asterisk on the score.

Sea of Thieves

A beautiful, genuinely novel pirate sandbox whose reviews split almost entirely on one axis — whether you can tolerate its unrestricted PvP and the community built around it — plus a real, press-covered 2026 community-safety controversy worth knowing about before you buy.

Shadowrun Returns

The Kickstarter campaign that brought cyberpunk-meets-fantasy Shadowrun back to video games — a genuinely well-written tactical RPG that its own developer, and most of its fans, would go on to surpass twice over with the sequels it made possible.

Shakes and Fidget

The idle RPG's grandparent, still running seventeen years on and still launching new worlds every few weeks — with a comic-fantasy charm that holds up and an economy built entirely around the moment a fresh leaderboard makes spending feel urgent.

Snakecremental

A NZ$5.99 solo-developer hybrid that bolts a proper node-based skill tree onto Snake, making the run itself the resource loop rather than the thing an idle game politely ignores — checked against a 433-review corpus that agrees almost unanimously on where the game turns from clever to punishing.

Solasta II

Tactical Adventures' sequel moves to Unreal Engine 5 and the newly revised SRD 5.2 ruleset, and its Early Access build proves the tactics still work — while making clear that a buyer today is paying full price for roughly ten hours of a much longer game still being built.

Soulmask

A survival game where you recruit tribespeople who keep working while you're logged out — a genuinely original idea, attached to a 1.0 launch so rough the developers published a public 90-day plan to fix it.

STAMPED

A psychological-horror bureaucracy sim that asks you to cross-check contradictory paperwork against a company terminal and stamp APPROVED or REJECTED — Papers, Please's mechanic wearing a haunted-office coat, from a developer who shipped two other small horror games the same fortnight.

Starfield

The clearest case in this library of a Steam score that has become a historical document — a Mixed badge earned in 2023 sitting on top of a game that, three years and a flight update later, its current players mostly recommend.

StarSavior

A turn-based hero collector that grafts Uma Musume's training sim onto Honkai: Star Rail-style combat, with presentation to match — undercut by optimisation problems and a PvP ladder that leans harder on spending than its otherwise generous gacha deserves.

Starvester

A solo-developed space factory incremental with a five-hour campaign and a clean ending instead of an endless ladder. The idea is refreshing; the execution runs out of steam exactly when the prestige system should be taking over.

Swarm Simulator

A 2014 browser incremental where larvae become drones, drones become queens and queens build nests — one of the earliest games to make a production chain the entire point, later rebuilt in 3D as the free-to-play Swarm Simulator: Evolution on Steam and Android.

Swordmancy

A solo developer's entry into the Vampire Survivors mould gives its weapons a personality of their own, and arrives with a genuinely large unlock list for a two-day-old free release — the question this first look can't yet answer is how it plays at hour twenty.

Synergism

A free browser incremental built by two developers since 2019, stacking Prestige into Transcension into Reincarnation into Ascension into Singularity — more reset layers than almost anything in the genre, though not every one of them changes what the layer below it means.

Take That Hill

A digital adaptation of a real tabletop primer used by Fight Club International's professional military wargaming network — a 20-minute hex-and-counter hill assault built to teach the genre's core mechanics, shipped day one with zero user reviews and no achievement data to check its claims against.

Techtonica

A factory-automation game that puts the camera underground and gives you a gun that deletes stone, so verticality and terrain destruction do real design work instead of being a setting. The idea is stronger than the execution — a convoluted tech tree, a frame rate that sags under a big base, and a developer that's gone quiet since the 1.0 launch hold it back.

The Ascent

One of the most beautiful cyberpunk worlds ever built, wrapped around bugs that delete your save — reported in 2021, still reported in 2026, with an announcement feed containing five years of sales and no patch notes.

The Darkened Northern Lights

A solo Finnish developer's family-friendly storybook RPG released on Steam yesterday — gentle turn-based dice combat, gnomes and fire foxes to free, a garden to tend, and a documented ascension from folk tale to playable systems — reviewed on launch-day evidence, with an achievement spread that resolves to roughly three reporting accounts.

The Dead Await

A genre mashup its own fans call an "uncut diamond" — Fallout-flavoured post-apocalyptic exploration, Darkest Dungeon-style combat and a real card-battler deckbuilding layer — whose lifetime review score is dragged down mostly by complaints from over a year before its actual 1.0 release.

The Iron and the Oath

A choice-driven interactive fiction RPG told entirely through the pages of a turning book, following Karl von Aiden across five chapters, three routes and six ways to die — from a Chinese solo-scale studio, with AI-assisted CG art and full dual-language narration, and so far a launch nobody has reviewed.

THE REF - Football Referee Simulator

A football sim that puts you on the whistle instead of the ball — full 3D matches where every foul, dive, card, penalty and VAR review is your call, marked out of ten afterward, with a four-league career and 1-4 player online co-op where friends run the lines. Launched into Early Access 6 August 2026 from a solo Swedish developer.
