Portal 2
Action gameMore than a decade on, Portal 2 remains the benchmark for first-person puzzle design, with a tightly paced campaign, the funniest script Valve has eve...Outstanding9.6Derail Valley
Adventure gameFew train simulators take physics as seriously as Derail Valley. It refuses to hold your hand, which is both its biggest strength and its steepest cos...Great8.5Riverbond
Action gameHard to recommend for most people: Riverbond's combat repeats long before its short campaign ends, it's too easy to challenge anyone experienced, and ...Mixed5.9Sail Forth
Action gameSail Forth's wind-driven sailing model is the real thing — tuned, readable and rewarding — but the combat, bosses and errand-style quests built around...Mixed6.5Aestik
Action gameAestik pairs striking hand-drawn art with a moral-choice system few metroidvanias attempt, then undercuts both with poor signposting and a late game t...Mixed5.9Rolling Line
Simulation gameRolling Line trades simulation rigidity for the tactile appeal of a model railway you can shrink into and touch. It's occasionally rough, deliberately...Good7.3Virginia
Adventure gameVirginia borrows film editing more confidently than almost any game before it, but hands the player almost nothing to do and trusts its cuts more than...Mixed6.1Homeworld Remastered Collection
Simulation gameGearbox's remaster preserves much of the awe that made Relic's space strategy games landmarks, and bundling the untouched originals is a smart hedge. ...Good7.6
Kami 2
Board gameKAMI 2 turns a worn-out color-flood premise into a quiet argument with yourself, and mostly wins it. The core design is solid and the mobile version i...Good7.5Underground 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 ...Good7.7Age of Wonders 4
RPG gameAge of Wonders 4 has an unusually expressive faction creator for the 4X genre and turn-based battles that reward real tactical thinking. The opponent ...Good7.4Cookie 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...Good7.5Cell to Singularity
Education gameA free idle game that turns the history of life and technology into a progression worth following, though the late game settles into the same reset gr...Good7.3Haven 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...Good7.0Halo: The Master Chief Collection
Action gameSix Halo campaigns, a huge multiplayer map library and a careful PC port make this a strong way to play the series' classic era. It took years of patc...Great8.5Sludge Life 2

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 ...Mixed6.6
