Younger games will find much enjoyment in Mineko’s Night Market. The world itself is pleasant to the eye and the whole setup is familiar yet cuts its own path. There is a fair bit of grind though

DESOLATIUM is an unusual, yet enjoyable, point-and-click adventure that is well worth getting your teeth into. The visuals are very impressive, whilst the atmosphere and soundtrack are equally good.

The Invincible is going to split opinion; not everyone is going to love this game, although many others will.

There may not be much new in terms of mechanics from the original game to this one, but Horror Tale 2: Samantha knows what it wants, delivers its goals brilliantly and provides some great escape room vibes.

From the moment the first cutscene arrives, you know you’ll be in for a bit of a golden time with Vlad Circus: Descend Into Madness.

There is probably a good game in here somewhere, but it feels like Stray Souls needed more time in development to iron out the bugs and hone the mechanics.

El Paso, Elsewhere is one of those games that will have you smiling from ear to ear, all whilst ensuring your action vibes are jumping.

There’s no doubt that Builder Simulator is a true sim game; the creativity and imagination are where the game really sings. With all the tools at your disposal, it’ll be up to you to make of it what you will.

FINIS is a very short experience, yet the price tag manages to justify the content.

If you are yet to play a Slenderman game but are a fan of all things horror, Slender: The Arrival on Xbox Series X|S is the version to step into.

Torn Away, stand up and take the applause.

A Perfect Day is a very original experience, especially in terms of gameplay and the structure of the narrative.

Truck Driver: The American Dream needs a few patches to get up to speed. This American dream is far from being fully realised. 

The Gap is a lovely, thoughtful game that has a fascinating story. Travelling through various memories and timelines is brilliant and never feels dull. Yes there are moments when you might feel lost with nowhere to go and no clue as to what to do next, but that's okay - just breathe and retrace your steps. 

You will love the chance to explore the world of Kona II: Brume.
