7 / 10
A cozy-punk narrative sim from Patattie Games about working a struggling record store, rated Very Positive across a large English review sample for its emotionally resonant story and charming LGBTQ+ cast, tempered by credible complaints from reviewers with real record-store and community-radio backgrounds that its themes and setting feel surface-level.

Werehouse is Dreamer's Abyss's co-op horror-comedy about overworked elves packing presents through a procedurally-generated, monster-infested warehouse on the night before Christmas, and this review's small but unanimously positive sample confirms a chaotic, funny, low-price party game that lives or dies on having friends to play it with.
7 / 10
A point-and-click time-travel adventure from imaginarylab, following an inventor and an artist across decades on a light-fuelled motorbike, Very Positive across a modest but substantive English review sample for gorgeous art and ambitious scope, with a fair, repeated complaint about stiff, moon-logic puzzle design and a rough opening stretch.

7 / 10
An atmospheric, beautifully art-directed Early Access horror action RPG from the creator of cult favourite Withering Rooms, drawing strong early praise for its Victorian horror mood and music, but facing a detailed, credible critique from longtime fans that it has traded the original's punishing survival-horror identity for a more generic soulslike formula, alongside a reproducible severe performance issue at maximum settings on high-end hardware.
7 / 10
A co-op delivery and scavenging game from Codename Entertainment Inc. set across an apocalyptic landscape of physics-based puzzles and chaotic platforming, drawing a healthy, largely positive English review sample that praises its claw-mechanic silliness and puzzle variety while consistently flagging a rougher, sometimes progression-blocking solo experience.
7 / 10
A free, autobiographical narrative game in which real-life author Evie Litwok recounts her first day in federal prison through pixel art and point-and-click exploration, whose raw, first- person testimony moved most players even as a specific, recurring critique about missing context split the review sample.
7 / 10
A charming, budget-priced Jenga-style physics puzzle from Korean two-person studio Team Baeb Sae, built around pulling bombs out of famous landmarks without letting the structure collapse, which reviewers loved for its landmark theming and cute sparrow mascot even as several called its runtime disappointingly short.
7 / 10
A tile-based idle puzzle game from solo developer Florian van Strien, maker of The Final Earth 2, about discovering tile synergies to grow an ever-more-productive world, drawing a small, near-unanimously positive review sample from a long-following fanbase that credits its deep, chill puzzle-optimisation loop while flagging a fair complaint about launch-price value relative to its polish.

A Spear That Is Also a Platform, a Weapon, and a Seed YesterSol's entire identity is built around one tool: the SolSpear, a magical weapon that a young sun warrior named Corin
7 / 10
The fifth entry in a top-down grinding RPG series stretching back to 90s Mac shareware, sending a custom hero out to fight, explore and level up in a quirky, joke-dense world, drawing a small but unanimously positive reception from a devoted long-time fanbase who describe it as pure nostalgia wrapped around a simple, satisfying grind, despite basic graphics and a battle system largely unchanged since Yipe 3.
7 / 10
A relaxing solo-developed incremental mining game about drilling ever deeper for ores, praised for its short, addictive, well-priced loop but flagged by reviewers for a very short campaign and a recurring, partially unaddressed system-slowdown bug.
7 / 10
A cold-war-flavored espionage RPG from ZA/UM, built by many of the same hands behind Disco Elysium under deeply strained circumstances, Very Positive across 1,665 English reviews for genuinely improved dialogue-check gameplay and striking atmosphere — with a widely repeated complaint about mismatched voiceover and unfinished polish at launch, and a shadow cast by the studio's own restructuring announcement months later.
7 / 10
A Kickstarter-backed, pro-player-built sci-fi RTS that arrives in Early Access as the most credible StarCraft successor in years, welded to a commander RPG layer that mostly earns its place — if you're still willing to relearn macro from scratch.
7 / 10
A chaotic 12-player dung beetle soccer brawler that mixes Rocket League momentum with Overwatch-style class abilities, and mostly sticks the landing.
6.9 / 10
Black Hole Fishing is a $5.99 incremental game from Playsaurus about breeding absurd fish and feeding them into a black hole, and while its silly premise and early hours charm most players, a large share of reviewers say the late-game prestige grind, bugs, and rough UI undercut what could have been a genre standout.

BrawlMart turns shopping carts into physics-based party-game chaos across a rotating playlist of minigames, and its small but entirely positive review sample loves the chaos even while agreeing almost unanimously that cart controls need real work.
