A no-code virtual tabletop builder that lets tabletop RPG groups design their own character sheets, rules and automation without programming, drawing rare and specific praise from an early, tiny reviewer base for solving a real gap left by every other VTT on the market.

A Robot-Cowboy Co-Op Shooter That Became an Overnight Phenomenon Far Far West entered Early Access on April 28, 2026 from eight-person Spanish studio Evil Raptor, and within days i
7.5 / 10
A gorgeous, genuinely unsettling remake of one of horror's most beloved ghost stories, held back from greatness by divisive combat rework and persistent controller and visibility bugs.

Read review of FATAL FRAME II: Crimson Butterfly REMAKE Review
A three-person team's follow-up to The Deadseat turns cult-horror hunting into a tense card-and-map puzzle, though Act 1 is only a third of the promised story.
7.5 / 10
A Noir Cat Detective in a Madlib Museum Mystery Feline Forensics and the Meowseum Mystery launched May 13, 2026 from solo Australian developer Nobody Crown, published under the Dev

Read review of Feline Forensics and the Meowseum Mystery Review
A physics-driven incremental collectathon where players grow a black hole by devouring themed dioramas — bowling alleys, underwater casinos, hibachi restaurants — praised unanimously by an early review sample for its quick, satisfying arcade loop and built-in level editor.
7.5 / 10
Battleship, Reimagined as a Race Against the Clock Fleet Hunters takes the pen-and-paper hidden-fleet formula nearly everyone grew up with and asks a simple question: what if nobod
7.5 / 10
A minimalist coin-flipping incremental from solo developer vomithog, Very Positive across its English review sample for a tightly structured, finishable progression loop, with fair complaints about repetitive time-gating, rigid mechanics, and a memory leak reported by more than one player.
7.5 / 10
A roguelike deckbuilder where your deck is literally the train you've assembled car by car, and every collision on the tactical grid can chain into a fight-ending disaster for whoever's standing in the way.
7.5 / 10
A horror-tinged roguelike solitaire from the creators of Ancient Enemy and Home Safety Hotline, earning an overwhelming reception for its meticulous, unsettling 90s-CD-ROM aesthetic and genuinely compelling card mechanics, weighed here against a large, detailed and consistent critical minority arguing its meta-narrative framing device never mechanically pays off and its card-battling grows too shallow and RNG-dependent to sustain its full runtime.
7.5 / 10
A Pomodoro-technique productivity companion disguised as an idle weapon-forging desktop pet — finish a focus session, a blacksmith maiden finishes a weapon, and you both work toward her freedom — loved so far by an almost entirely Chinese-speaking early audience.
7.5 / 10
A solo-developed turn-based tactics roguelite that sends a party of heroes to slay gods, earning strong day-one praise for its build variety and simultaneous-turn co-op, tempered by reviewer complaints about punishing boss escalation and repeat-kill enemy design.
7.5 / 10
Quite possibly the best arcade racer ever made, set in the best map the series has built — and its two most-upvoted negative reviews are from people who couldn't play it because they block telemetry.
7.5 / 10
A clean, faithful FreeCell built on the same drag-and-drop card foundation as the rest of Frank Force's LittleJS Arcade card games — confirmed here not by finding a virtual card that looks draggable, but by watching a specific card leave one pile and land in another inside the game's own state, on both a simulated phone and a desktop mouse.
7.5 / 10
A wildly inventive arcade trick-combo game about a passenger falling from a doomed 1995 aircraft, praised for its infectious Tony Hawk-inspired scoring loop and surprising depth at a low price, with escalating unfair difficulty and repetitive objective design becoming clearer the longer players stay with it.
7.5 / 10
A free, quirky co-op climbing platformer starring a small frog building its own path to the sky, praised almost unanimously for its satisfying movement, charming presentation, and surprising heart with friends, but held back by a progression system that undercuts its own core climbing mechanic once players over-invest in jump stats.
7.5 / 10
A cozy creature-collector about caring for a magical island of frogs while piecing together a forgotten past, built on a Neko Atsume-meets-Virtual-Villagers charm and unusually thoughtful accessibility options, undercut for a vocal minority by clunky minigame controls and occasionally vague quest direction.
7.5 / 10
An X-COM-inspired tactical RPG set in a lawless 25th-century frontier, unanimously praised by a small early sample for deliberate, non-random-feeling tactical combat, genuinely reactive procedural maps, and unusually strong worldbuilding built around a mysterious crystal and a rough, personal crew of misfits, read with appropriate caution given how few voices currently make up that reception.
7.5 / 10
A Sequel Built On A Beloved Free Predecessor Frostrain 2 is solo developer nemonan's follow-up to Frostrain, a free train-building roguelike deckbuilder that built a small, dev
7.5 / 10
Fruits Vs Veggies is a $6.99 online party brawler pitting sentient produce against each other across dozens of chaotic game modes, and this review's unanimously Positive sample (14 of 14 reviews) makes an unusually strong case for a one-person studio's surprisingly full package of solo campaign and multiplayer content.
7.5 / 10
A deliberately crude, deranged-looking joke game that turns out to hide a genuinely well-built 2D Zelda-like underneath, with clever dungeons, real puzzles, and an excellent soundtrack, undercut mainly by stiff sword combat and a lockpicking minigame reviewers unanimously call the game's low point.
7.5 / 10
A warm, genuinely funny, lovingly hand-crafted open-world satirical adventure from established art-game studio Molleindustria, following a bitter, dying old man's last day in a Pittsburgh reimagined as an ecosocialist utopia, unanimously praised in its small early sample for exceptional writing and voice acting, tempered by a few dull gameplay stretches, a short runtime relative to price, and one reported dialogue-sequencing bug.
7.5 / 10
Galactic Vault is a movement-shooter roguelike from solo-turned-full-time studio MeepMeep Games that pairs fast, fluid traversal with a deep weapon-building system, and this review's sample finds a game with an exceptional post-launch support record and a fanbase that overwhelmingly prefers its movement to genre touchstone Deadzone Rogue, held back only slightly by UI clarity and content-variety gripes even among its biggest fans.
7.5 / 10
A co-op "casino-crawler" roguelike from TEAM GWYF where up to six players share one bank account and one loan shark's quota, rated Very Positive across a large English review sample for its chaotic social dynamics, tempered by a strong, repeated complaint about its restrictive five-minute timer and a lack of a freeform sandbox mode.
