Regions of Ruin: Runegate
A five-years-in-the-making sequel to the dwarven action-RPG Regions of Ruin, praised for genuinely improved combat and base building, but weighed down by a sharp, recurring complaint that the campaign ends abruptly and its economy runs out of purpose long before the credits roll.
7.3 / 10
Reigns: The Witcher
Geralt, but you swipe instead of swing a sword "Reigns: The Witcher" takes the swipe-left-swipe-right decision format that Nerial has built an entire mini-franchise on an

Reincarnated as a Dark Lord Before Taking Over the World with Power 999999999
A cheap, Very Positive time-management puzzle game from solo studio Cuddle Code, frequently mistaken for an idle/incremental game by its own store tags — reviewers consistently praise its clever choose-your-path structure and isekai theming, but converge just as consistently on a punishing precision requirement that this review corroborates directly against a steep, chapter-by-chapter achievement completion drop-off.

Relic Guardian Review
Mystrigger's pixel-art Kingdom Rush-inspired tower defense, in which a summoned hero physically repositions towers across the battlefield, drawing a large and Very Positive review sample split between reviewers who love the added tactical layer and those who find it a slow, clunky detour from genre fundamentals.
4 / 10
Remote Position Review
A story-driven horror-mystery puzzle game about following a stranger's unnerving remote instructions, with only two public reviews on record -- one describing broken puzzle logic at launch, the other a longer, more forgiving account of a responsive developer patching around the same kind of issue in real time.
3 / 10
RentPoly
A "Balatro meets Monopoly" roguelike from Sunpeak Games that turns rent-collecting into a build-crafting engine, landing "Positive" on a small but enthusiastic launch-week sample split between genuine delight and real complaints about unclear rules text.
7 / 10
Replicube
Code golf, but you can see exactly what you're building Replicube hands players a reference 3D voxel image and a Lua code editor, then asks them to write the shortest, most eff
7.5 / 10
Resident Evil 3
A tense, visually stunning remake of the 1999 survival horror classic that nearly every reviewer enjoys playing, undermined almost universally by a campaign reviewers describe as too short and too stripped of the original's content to justify a full-price purchase.
6.5 / 10
Restitutor: Empire Restored
An Early Access incremental grand strategy game built around a genuinely compelling "Rebirth" New Game Plus loop, praised by early reviewers as immediately playable for Europa Universalis fans, but still rough around the edges in interface, tooltips and balance.
6.5 / 10
Retail Hell
A psychological horror job simulator from LEAP Game Studios, Overwhelmingly Positive across 520 reviews for its distinctive premise, atmosphere, and addictive shift-management loop — undercut by a common complaint that it's over in a few hours, a gap this review confirmed the developer has since closed by shipping a full Endless Mode.
7.5 / 10
Retro Arcade Shop Simulator
An Early Access management sim about building and running a retro arcade across ten rooms, praised by a large early review sample for its customisation and progression, but undercut by disclosed AI-generated art assets several reviewers found genuinely off-putting, a tedious manual restocking loop, and a reported autosave bug.
6.5 / 10
Reverse T-gotchi
A first-person psychological horror game that flips the Tamagotchi premise so the player is the pet, earning a small but unanimously positive launch reception for its striking concept and genuine scares, tempered by one reviewer's honest note that the localisation feels rough.
6.5 / 10
REWIND
A free, hour-long text-and-clue detective puzzle with a striking Disco Elysium-adjacent art style, let down by weak onboarding, a short and comparatively simple central mystery, and at least one reported case-blocking bug.
6.5 / 10
Rhyolite
A chaotic 1-4 player co-op roguelite about capturing ghost trains from a haunted steampunk locomotive, praised almost unanimously for its unique premise and escalating chaos, though its very small review sample and a handful of launch-bug reports leave some open questions.
6.5 / 10
Ribbit Rogue
A dice-building roguelike about frog adventurers fighting through a corrupted swamp, praised for genuinely deep dice-and-item synergy and excellent Steam Deck support, but marked down by specific quality-of-life gaps and at least one reviewer who found its systems opaque.
7.5 / 10
RIDE 6
Better physics, wrapped around a shrinking game RIDE 6 is the latest entry in Milestone's long-running motorcycle racing series, built around a new "RideFest" festiva
5.5 / 10
Rise of Industry
An early-20th-century factory and logistics tycoon sim with a genuinely deep production-chain concept, undercut by a clunky, information-poor interface that forces spreadsheet-tracking and heavy manual micromanagement of every supply link.
5.5 / 10
Rise of Piracy
A dormant genre gets a fresh coat of paint Rise of Piracy is a solo-developed Early Access naval sim from IrishJohnGames, published by MicroProse Software, that casts players as a
6.5 / 10
Ritualis: Summoner Simulator
A charming shop-management sim from Noxtell Games where you draw rituals to summon bizarre items and creatures for a town of odd customers, Positive across 26 reviews for its dark-comedy writing and genuinely replayable branching endings — held back by a confusing reputation system that this review found no patch has directly addressed.
7 / 10
Road of Heart
A classic retro-styled turn-based JRPG about a village boy who joins an Adventurers' Guild only to have danger follow him home — its small early review base is almost entirely non-English and largely positive, praising a cosy, unhurried old-school feel while flagging thin interface polish and, in one longer account, serious freeze bugs.
5.5 / 10
Road to Empress II
A live-action interactive palace drama sequel with genuine production value in its acting and staging, undercut badly by increasingly visible generative-AI imagery and translation in its back half.
6 / 10
Rock Island
An idle/incremental tribe-building game built around a mysterious resource-spewing cube, Mixed across 69 reviews for a charming core loop and a genuinely responsive solo developer — undercut by an extremely consistent complaint about slow, low-reward prestige progression that this review's own check of the game's achievement data corroborates directly.
5.5 / 10
Rogue Night
A cozy-crossed-with-roguelite survival RPG from Grey November Games that lands to a genuinely Mixed reception — reviewers who love its Zelda-like exploration sit against others who found its roguelite, town-building, and progression systems shallow or confusing at launch.
