Underground Blossom
Adventure gameUnderground Blossom is a solid, approachable entry in Rusty Lake's catalog. Seven self-contained puzzle rooms linked by a haunted metro line make for ...Good7.7Cookie Clicker
Simulation gameFew games can claim to have founded a genre and still hold their place in it, but Cookie Clicker comes close. It's a lean, funny, surprisingly deep ec...Great8.3Long Live the Queen
RPG gameA small, cruel, clever sim that treats failure as the lesson plan. For players willing to die repeatedly to learn what the court wants, it's a rewardi...Good7.5Haven Park
Adventure gameHaven Park is charming and well-made but very short and shallow, and it leans heavily on A Short Hike without matching it. At $3.59 it's a pleasant ...Mixed6.6Lone Ruin
Action gameLone Ruin has a fast, tight spellcasting loop and pixel art that makes a strong first impression, but thin content, uneven build balance and almost no...Mixed5.8Frog Detective 1: The Haunted Island
Adventure gameShort, warm and very funny, Frog Detective 1 cares more about timing than puzzles. It lasts about an hour, has no real challenge and doesn't pretend...Good7.0Sludge Life 2

Casual gameHard to recommend for most people: Shape of the World is a gorgeous, pressure-free walk through a world that grows around you, but there is very littl...Mixed5.9
Heave Ho
Adventure gameHeave Ho turns two floppy arms and a bottomless pit into a genuinely funny, chaotic couch co-op design. It's short, punishing late on, and thin alone,...Good7.2Desert Golfing
Sports gameDesert Golfing strips away nearly everything a modern mobile game piles on and leaves one shot, one hole and one stroke counter that can never be rese...Great8.1Gravity Bone
Adventure gameGravity Bone is a free, brief spy story that earns a clear recommendation. Its jump-cut editing and confident mood outweigh clumsy platforming and a d...Great8.2Islands: Non-Places
Casual gameISLANDS: Non-Places turns parking lots, lobbies and terminals into small, eerie rituals, and its art and sound are genuinely distinctive. But it is ...Mixed6.6Tormentor X Punisher
Action gameTormentor X Punisher is a small, loud, mean twin-stick shooter built on one ruthless rule: everything dies in one hit, including you. It is thin on co...Good7.2Gunman Clive
Action gameShort, disciplined and handsome, Gunman Clive is a budget run-and-gun that does a few specific things well and stops before developing any of them. We...Good7.1Lightmatter
Adventure gameLightmatter turns one lethal rule — that shadows kill — into a tight, inventive puzzle campaign, and David Bateson's venomous CEO keeps it funny. It i...Good7.0Pistol Whip
Action gameFew rhythm games commit to a physical fantasy the way Pistol Whip does — the gunfight is the song, and the body is the controller. The catch is a shor...Good7.5RUINER
Action gameRUINER's top-down combat is aggressive, fast and well-tuned, wrapped in a striking blood-red cyberpunk look. The fights carry the game; the story, the...Good7.2Strange Antiquities
Adventure gameBad Viking's occult shopkeeping sequel turns the act of looking closely into the entire game, and it is richer and more demanding than Strange Horticu...Good7.4Renowned Explorers: International Society
Adventure gameAbbey Games built a tactics game where flattery, mockery and fists are all equally valid weapons, and the idea holds up well beyond its novelty. Famil...Good7.7Scrabdackle
Action gameA confident, hand-animated Zelda-like with fast, demanding wand combat and a world dense with lore — but only a third of it exists yet. Act 1 is a sol...Good7.7Wildmender
Adventure gameWildmender has one of the best ideas in the cozy-survival genre — you fix a dead world by moving water through it — but a grindy middle, thin combat a...Mixed6.5Out There: Ω Edition
Adventure gameOut There: Ω Edition is a bleak, well-written survival roguelike whose blunt randomness, opaque endgame and thin onboarding make it hard to recommend ...Mixed6.7Lingo 2
Adventure gameA bigger, stranger and far more confident sequel that throws out the original's rulebook and builds a new word-puzzle language inside a world that kee...Great8.4Ibb & Obb
Action gameIbb & Obb is a co-op puzzle platformer built so completely around two people that playing it alone barely counts as playing it. It is short and punish...Good7.5
