J.U.L.I.A. review
There's nothing artificial about this genuinely intelligent sci-fi adventure, which cleverly blends a host of varied gameplay elements into one unique whole.
Miskatonic: Part 1 - The Inhuman Stain review
The three-part Lovecraftian mystery kicks off at Miskatonic University, but an inconsistent debut doesn't quite make the grade.

This Samorost-style lite adventure sometimes twinkles with surreal charm, but it falls short of shining in its perpetual darkness.

We've doubled up a pair of casual reviews, but even two offbeat, cartoon Jolly Gang adventures don't add up to a single good one.

Its unique fantasy story never skips a beat, but a lack of meaningful interaction breaks the potential immersion.
The Dream Machine: Chapter 3 review
Three episodes in, this charming clay-and-cardboard indie adventure is shaping up as a compellingly surreal series.
AR-K: Episode 1 - Sex, Lies and Class Work review
The debut episode of a new sci-fi indie series flirts with potential, but it never translates into anything more than a teasing prologue.
