A Fold Apart
Adventure gameA Fold Apart folds its geometry and its story into the same object, and few puzzle games make mechanic and meaning line up this cleanly. The puzzles s...Good7.2El Hijo - A Wild West Tale
Adventure gameEl Hijo – A Wild West Tale is a charming, low-stakes stealth adventure that's more affectionate pastiche than genre breakthrough — and at $19.99, it...Mixed5.9The Wreck
Adventure gameFew narrative games make reinterpreting a memory the central verb, and The Wreck builds its whole design around that idea. It's a solid, affecting t...Good7.0Rustler
Action gameRustler is a funny medieval take on the top-down GTA formula, but clunky combat, mission-breaking bugs, and a short campaign make it hard to recomme...Mixed6.1Lacuna – A Sci-Fi Noir Adventure
Adventure gameTrust the player to name the wrong suspect and live with it — that single idea carries Lacuna, a taut, well-drawn sci-fi noir whose writing and conseq...Good7.3Unexplored
Action gameUnexplored takes on procedural generation's oldest problem — random levels that feel like nobody made them — and largely solves it. The combat and art...Good7.3Octodad: Dadliest Catch
Action gameYoung Horses gives you deliberately clumsy controls and dares you to laugh, and the joke lands often enough to matter. The campaign is short and the s...Good7.0Hohokum
Adventure gameHohokum is a calm, bright playground with no pressure and nothing to lose — and almost no direction. For anyone who wants a reason to keep moving, the...Mixed6.3
Knights and Bikes
Action gameWarm, funny and hand-painted, Knights and Bikes tells a sincere story about grief under a kids-on-bikes treasure hunt. The combat is thin and never ge...Good7.0SIMULACRA
Adventure gameSIMULACRA weaponizes the most intimate object you own, turning a stranger's lock screen into an unnerving detective story — and it stumbles when it re...Good7.4Hell is Us
Action gameRogue Factor built a genuinely unnerving world and then removed every crutch modern games use to guide you through it — no map, no compass, no quest m...Good7.1Eternal Threads
Adventure gameEternal Threads' ripple-effect timeline — a hundred small decisions deciding who lives — is one of the more original narrative systems in years, but i...Mixed6.4Moonglow Bay
Adventure gameMoonglow Bay has one of the most emotionally honest premises in the cozy genre — a voxel story about grief, debt, and small-town decline, scored by Le...Mixed5.9Lone Survivor
Action gameA flashlight, a cassette hiss, and a bag of rotten meat do more work here than most big-budget horror manages with a photogrammetry rig. It's an unset...Good7.6Star Wars Jedi: Survivor
Action gameRespawn built a mechanically rich action game and then shipped it on PC in a state that damaged its reputation for two years. The design now justifies...Good7.1Beyond Good & Evil – 20th Anniversary Edition
Action gameFor $19.99, Ubisoft has given a long-overlooked action-adventure a careful visual and audio polish plus quality-of-life fixes that matter more than th...Good7.1Black Book
Adventure gameBlack Book is a deck-building RPG whose cards are incantations drawn from 19th-century Ural folk charms, wrapped in a grief story with teeth. The co...Good7.3Ashen
Action gameAshen's passive drop-in co-op is the best structural idea the souls-like genre has produced in a decade, but mushy combat, a hostile camera, and a tec...Mixed6.0Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes

Adventure gameA horror game built around a microphone instead of a shotgun, Killer Frequency's gimmick — talking terrified strangers through a slasher's night while...Good7.2Gibbon: Beyond the Trees
Action gameBroken Rules built an entire game around one verb — swinging — and the verb works; almost everything around it is thinner. Gibbon's hour-long campaign...Mixed6.8BEAUTIFUL DESOLATION

Action gamePath of Exile 2 is the most mechanically ambitious action RPG on the market, wrapped in a difficulty and death-penalty structure that will eject a lar...Good7.5Souldiers
Action gameSouldiers is a gorgeous, overstuffed metroidvania undermined by difficulty spikes, repetitive dungeons, and a runtime that sprawls past its ideas. Agg...Mixed6.0
