City Transport Simulator 2026 Review: A Promising Sim Held Back by Its Own Bugs

City Transport Simulator 2026 is a $39.99 combined bus and tram simulator set in a fictional European city, and while its core driving loop and free upgrade for returning owners have earned real fans, a large and detailed share of reviewers report serious performance problems, broken steering wheel support, and traffic AI bugs that undercut the experience.

Ghost Restaurant

Ghost Restaurant is a $6.99 solo-developed first-person narrative puzzle game from Akrelia Studio, casting players as the Memory Chef of a restaurant for lost souls, and this review's small, unanimously Positive sample praises its clever, logical puzzle design and a surprisingly emotional, melancholic story.

Road to Vostok

A hardcore, single-player answer to Tarkov and STALKER, built almost entirely by one Finnish developer, whose atmosphere, gunplay, and permadeath tension win over a huge Early Access audience despite a badly broken enemy AI that both fans and critics flag as the game's biggest current flaw.

Spell Alchemist

A short, cheap digging-and-crafting game about mining resources and refining them into spells, praised for its charming concept and fair price but held back by tight inventory limits, tedious late-game grinding, and a loop that thins out fast once automation kicks in.

The Ember Guardian Review: Kingdom Two Crowns, But You Finally Get to Shoot Back

Ratbit Games' roguelike tower-defense wears its Kingdom inspiration openly, and reviewers largely reward it for the change -- personal combat with guns and companions replaces passive troop-watching, though a short campaign, steep price, and recurring Steam Deck performance complaints keep the verdict from being unanimous.

Twisted Tower

Thomas Brush's Atmos Games and publisher 3D Realms send players climbing a corrupted 1950s theme park armed with toy-themed guns in an openly Bioshock-inspired arena shooter, one whose striking atmosphere and creative weapon design are consistently undercut by shallow combat AI and a widely panned story.

5omeday

A tightly focused visual novel about guarding a condemned dragon girl with a button that can end her life at any moment earns a Very Positive Steam debut for its premise, voice acting, and branching endings, while its own review sample is unusually consistent that the experience is too short and too thin to justify its asking price.
