I can't get Fish Sticks out of my head. Not the food, but the stray cat with a squished face and stubby legs that I wrangled into my shack in Edmund McMillen and Tyler Glaiel’s new roguelite strategy game, Mewgenics. The shop, the pub, the dentist; no matter where I go, I…
I was, like so many of my 1990s-born peers, a huge Sims girlie. I spent hundreds of hours as a teen and young adult making people I knew, characters from shows I was obsessing over, or original characters I wanted to experiment with, and diligently following their life paths and…
Not much of an upgrade over the HD remaster, but Might & Magic: Clash Of Heroes is still one of the most unique strategy puzzle RPGs around. It's also one of the hardest strategy puzzle RPGs around, and your fun mileage may vary.
Superbly presented with oceans of strategic depth, Let's! Revolution! is a spirited fantasy roguelite that gives Minesweeper a vibrant new lease of life.
A short but challenging adventure about taking back humanity's freedom from an evil AI, Full Void is a beautifully crafted cinematic platformer that owes as much to Another World as it does Inside.
Viewfinder is a puzzle game like no other. Its reality-shifting, mind-bending hook is constantly fascinating, and the directions it takes will leave your head spinning in the best way possible.
UI niggles and a wincingly unfunny tone can’t sink Jagged Alliance 3's strong hybrid of old and new design ideas.
Well-written characters and a tense atmosphere set the right tone, but the signals of this Oxenfree sequel feel garbled compared to the original.
Trepang2 is a short but joyously violent first-person horror shooter and the closest we've had to F.E.A.R. in years

Aliens: Dark Descent is an authentically atmospheric campaign borrowing from both turn-based tactics and survival horror, stymied by a seemingly deep paranoia you might mistake it for one of those strategy games for nerds. It's not. It's not for nerds. It's for cool Aliens fans. You can use a controller. It's not for nerds.
Dordogne doesn't demand much of you, but it luxuriates in the details that make life so special.
More creative and cartoony than managerial, thus a bit of a treat for people less boring than me.
Mask Of The Rose is an anthology of eldritch mysteries in a deliciously gothic world, but Failbetter's philosophy of weaving your own tale feels at odds with its dating sim promises.
Amnesia: The Bunker is a compact, focused and refreshing horror game that brings new excitement to one of horror's modern classic game series.
More than a simple Hypnospace Outlaw spin-off, Slayers X: Terminal Aftermath: Vengance of the Slayer is a brilliant retro FPS with a boisterous personality and a sincere heart.
The Tartarus Key has puzzles so hard it's basically an immersive sim. Puzzle haters will baulk, but for genre fans it's a weirdo breath of fresh air
