A haunting, uncompromising Metroidvania that blends precision gameplay with emotional depth—occasionally frustrating, but undeniably memorable.
Rogue Doodle Review
A stylish and tightly designed precision platformer that excels in readability, control, and momentum-driven gameplay, only slightly held back by limited mechanical depth in its roguelite structure.
Frozen Rune Review
A sharp and well-built precision platformer that rewards dedication and perseverance, but is held back by uneven difficulty spikes and a lack of structural variety beyond its core trial-and-error loop.
Hoodbound Review
A quietly atmospheric “cozy dark” platformer, Hoodbound blends gentle exploration with stealth-inspired vulnerability mechanics, creating a thoughtful and immersive experience that prioritises caution, mood, and movement over combat or complexity.
Go! Go! Mister Chickums Review
Go! Go! Mister Chickums doesn’t just wear its arcade inspirations on its sleeve—it struts around in them, feathers puffed, daring you to keep up.
MotionRec Review
A smart and elegant puzzle-platformer that turns your own movements into the key to progression, delivering a thoughtful and satisfying experience built on creativity and control.
GRIME II Review
A hauntingly inventive metroidvania that turns adaptation into an art form—GRIME II is as strange as it is brilliant.
Legacy of Kain: Heart of Darkness Collection Review
A powerful dual collection that pairs nostalgic remastering with bold reinvention, the Heart of Darkness Collection delivers a definitive way to experience the Legacy of Kain universe—though uneven pacing across both titles keeps it just shy of perfection.
Legacy of Kain: Ascendance Review
Ascendance doesn’t just resurrect a dormant series—it bleeds new life into it, fusing reverence for its gothic past with a surprisingly bold, modern identity.
RUBATO Review
A chaotic, tongue-swinging collect-a-thon full of personality, RUBATO blends physics-driven movement with surprising emotional depth—uneven, but undeniably memorable.
