GAME is a $6.99 interactive fiction from solo developer Joshua Roland, and this review's small but overwhelmingly positive sample describes a harrowing, deeply personal story about an abusive family relationship, disguised as a bizarre sport nobody ever actually sees played, praised almost unanimously for its writing and atmosphere despite one detailed complaint that player choices barely affect the outcome.

A short, folk-horror follow-up from solo developer Jonny's Games (of Fear the Moon fame), whose mask-swapping mechanic and unnerving atmosphere won over most returning fans even as a specific, recurring complaint held that its story crams too much cryptic lore into too short a runtime, alongside instakill maze sections that drove at least one refund.

6.8 / 10

6.8 / 10
A globe-trotting sequel to Noobzilla's hidden-object picture-matching game Pictective, sending detective cat Doma across 12 countries to catch a mischievous escapee, which reviewers mostly enjoyed as more of a beloved formula even as a recurring complaint about repetitive cityscape photography pulled down an otherwise "Mostly Positive" reception.
