Paleo Dive Review

Swimming with the ancients Paleo Dive takes a formula that VR ocean-exploration fans already know well — the arm-stroke swimming, the open water, the quiet sense of discovery that

Spinny Dungeon

A slot-machine roguelike that fuses Luck Be a Landlord's reel-spinning tension with dungeon-crawler resource management, only to run out of content before its own systems get to shine.

The Pale Mimic

A short, atmospheric Alaskan wilderness horror game about a fugitive, his dog, and something that isn't a wolf — beloved for its sound design and its loyal canine companion, but repeatedly criticised for a scripted, repetitive hunting loop that never lets the player feel real danger.

Three Kingdoms Part One: Battle of Zhuo County Review: Gorgeous Art, Rocky Launch

Three Kingdoms Part One: Battle of Zhuo County tells the opening chapter of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei's story through a striking ink-wash art style and a scavenge-and-gamble progression loop, but a buggy, unusually short launch has split its review sample down the middle.

Two Rings: Vanquish and Bloom

Two Rings: Vanquish and Bloom is a free-to-play isometric action game from DigiPen student studio DREAmwIN that builds combat around a genuinely novel dual-hand mechanic, right hand for destruction and left hand for restoration, and this review's small, unanimously Positive sample praises its striking art direction and replayable leaderboard chase while flagging repetitive enemy variety.

Aevalore

A manually-aimed bullet-heaven survivors-like whose growing cast of distinct heroes and cheap price point are complicated by a thin build-variety complaint, a disclosed use of AI in development, and confirmed gamepad UI problems on handheld PCs.

Aphelion

A gorgeous, cinematic sci-fi mystery from DON'T NOD that tells a genuinely affecting story about two astronauts stranded on a hostile planet, undercut by repetitive climbing mechanics, a fiddly grip system, and a real spread of bugs.

Away From Life

An early access castaway survival game in the vein of Stranded Deep and Raft, with beautiful island exploration and a fun co-op loop undercut by a widely reported item- and raft-disappearing bug, sluggish boat handling, and rough multiplayer sync.

Bloksie (for now)

Bloksie (for now) is a $4.99 solo-developed roguelite from RationaLess that fuses 2048-style number merging with tower defense and Slay the Spire-inspired relics, all wrapped in a silly bird-themed tax-collecting story, and this review's small, unanimously Positive sample calls it addictive, deep, and a genuine steal for the price.

GRIME II

GRIME II is a $27.99 sequel to Clover Bite's 2021 body-horror metroidvania, and this review's Very Positive sample (737 of 805 reviews) praises a huge, ambitious world and satisfying combat, while a vocal minority mourns a tonal shift away from the original's grim solemnity.
