Arcane Investigations review
The magical world it sets up begs to be explored more deeply than it is here, but while it lasts, the hour-long Arcane Investigations largely succeeds in its promise of being a Phoenix Wright-inspired fantasy mystery. ... Read more
Mythwrecked: Ambrosia Island review
The charming Mythwrecked: Ambrosia Island is a low-challenge but extremely addictive fetch quest and collectible-gathering Elysium filled with fun cartoony Greek gods to make friends with along the way... Read more
Paper Perjury review
Paper Perjury doesn’t fall far from the Phoenix Wright tree, but that’s absolutely part of its appeal. Content to give a familiar formula its own distinctly breezy atmosphere, the game’s occasional nebulous solutions are ultimately made up for by a charming presentation and endearing cast of characters...

Phoenix Springs review
Phoenix Springs will land well with anyone looking for a complex, experimental mystery with striking art and a surreal atmosphere, so long as they don’t mind wrestling with a strange, disjointed narrative and a few obtuse puzzles in an increasingly bizarre second half. ... Read more
Boxville 2 review
Boxville 2 builds on what was good about its predecessor, with even more square-shaped fun, can-do attitude and immensely big heart. ... Read more
Still Wakes the Deep: Siren's Rest (DLC) review
As a bite-sized new dive into the world of Still Wakes the Deep, Siren’s Rest doesn’t quite measure up and will likely leave you hungering for the meatier, more fulfilling experience of the base game... Read more
Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo review
Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo is a gently paced, vividly colorful paper adventure filled with memorable afterlife inhabitants and a simple but fun time-looping premise. It’s a shame, then, that the character arcs often fail to reach the same satisfying conclusion for the player as they do for these wayward souls themselves. ... Read more
Alex Hill: Whispers at White Oak Inn review
The Alex Hill series debut Whispers at White Oak Inn nicely captures the lo-fi charm of early Nancy Drew mysteries with clear affection for its inspiration, but stumbles somewhat when trying to stand on its own. ... Read more
Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered review
Lara’s last three adventures from Core Design play differently enough from the first trilogy that serious fans will want to check them out. However, with inconsistent visual and mechanical upgrades, and a higher overall difficulty, Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered is not a good jumping-in point for newcomers... Read more
Exit: A Biodelic Adventure review
The unapologetically strange Exit: A Biodelic Adventure drops you into a hallucinatory dystopia and challenges you to find your way through. It’s a heartfelt and often hilarious journey through a living, breathing world that may overwhelm the senses but certainly never bores... Read more
The Gap review
A slower-paced, foreboding near-future tale of one man’s obsession to save his family won’t be for everyone, but if you’re prepared for an excellent immersive narrative experience heaped in authenticity, you won’t want to miss The Gap. ... Read more
Stars in the Trash review
If you are an animal lover who doesn’t mind a little jumping, climbing and lighthearted cat fighting, you will surely fall in love with the Disney-esque short but beautiful Stars in the Trash... Read more
Discolored 2 review
With its eerie tone, abstract logic, and distinctive aesthetic, Discolored 2 is another atmospherically rich puzzle game that builds meaningfully on the foundation of its predecessor. ... Read more
The Midnight Walk review
The Midnight Walk is a stunning achievement in visual, audio, and narrative design. It may not present much challenge in overcoming its trials and tribulations, but the touching journey of The Burnt One and Potboy through a dark, disturbing hand-sculpted world of clay will surely light a spark that warms your soul...

Without a Dawn review
Clicking through the short, experimental visual horror story Without a Dawn is so chilling that you’ll probably be willing to overlook the complete lack of gameplay usually found in a Jesse Makkonen adventure... Read more
