Chronicle of Innsmouth: Mountains of Madness review
Though its production values are much higher, this Lovecraftian murder mystery isn't quite as fleshed out as its less ambitious predecessor.
Shady Part of Me review
Not to be overshadowed by a lack of narrative payoff is an otherwise engaging puzzle-platformer highlighted by its gameplay and presentation.
Transient review
It's a shame that this gorgeous hybrid of dystopian sci-fi and Lovecraftian horror doesn't last long enough to fulfill its early intriguing promise.
The Dark Pictures Anthology: Little Hope review
The second installment in Supermassive's standalone horror collection enchants more with its compelling story and exciting set pieces than outright fear.
Transference review
Would that this atmospheric sci-fi drama were the revolutionary advancement it promised to be, but it's still a moving, polished psychological thriller.
Erica review
This PS4-exclusive interactive movie deserves a hand for its slick FMV production, but it's let down by odd pacing and plot choices.
The White Door review
One's enjoyment of this largely black and white, split-screen puzzler depends on whether you see its unapologetic weirdness as a feature or a serious knock against it.
The Pillar review
This lovely indie puzzler hopes to stand tall with the likes of The Witness, but its lack of gameplay and world-building substance leave it coming up a little short.
Down the Rabbit Hole review
There's not much story to unearth, but this charming little VR adventure is worth digging into for an original take on Lewis Carroll's Wonderland.
Röki review
This beautifully designed and consistently entertaining fantasy adventure tells a very poignant human story deeply rooted in Scandinavian folklore.
Paper Beast review
Eric Chahi's unique alien world VR adventure unfolds with no story but is littered with memorable moments and wrapped up in plenty of inspired creativity.
Shapik: The Moon Quest review
This charming Amanita-style sci-fi puzzler is light on story but gets full marks for presentation and entertaining gameplay.
VirtuaVerse review
Picking up momentum after a slow start, this indie sci-fi story rounds into a beautiful, challenging pixel art adventure that offers much more than meets the eye.
Eclipse: Edge of Light review
This alien world VR adventure makes for a bit of jetpack-boosted fun, but the novelty quickly passes without much gameplay or story to support it.
From Beyond: Prologue review
This MacVenture-style throwback series shows promise, but here and now this Lovecraftian debut is merely a stage-setter for more to come.
