Agatha Christie – Hercule Poirot: The First Cases review
This original deduction-driven investigation from the famed Belgian detective's early career is sure to be a not-so-guilty pleasure for mystery fans.
What Happened review
This drug-induced descent into madness looks great and means well, but earns a failing grade for its storytelling and lack of gameplay.
Omno review
Gamers everywhere should give this gorgeous 3D platforming adventure a chance, as it frequently soars above many of its contemporaries.
The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles review
The verdict is in, and this 19th century two-games-in-one prequel more than does justice to its beloved predecessors.
Westmark Manor review
Its haunting gothic setting is suitably Lovecraftian, but this top-down survival horror messes with the formula with some excessively cumbersome mechanics.
Vile Matter review
This very short escape-room horror adventure isn't vile matter so much as it is a mediocre diversion that means little more than an hour or so of puzzling.
Last Stop review
There isn't much challenge to halt progress, but the new game from the creators of Virginia will captivate you with its three dramatic, slickly produced stories.
Døm Rusalok review
This post-Soviet side-scrolling adventure provides a compelling pixel art horror ambience, though some punishing technical issues are unearthed along the way.
Down in Bermuda review
It's easy to lose oneself for a couple hours in this beautifully charming little isometric puzzler from the creators of Agent A.
Twelve Minutes review
This looping top-down murder mystery provides plenty of compelling possibilities, though the good times begin to diminish as the repetition increases.
Critters for Sale review
This unique anthology of retro-styled 1-bit adventures pays off with an abundance of nightmare weirdness and deeply unsettling ambience.
Chicory: A Colorful Tale review
A few optional boss fights are easily glossed over by a tasty blend of whimsically charming world painting and a surprisingly poignant underlying story.
Fire Tonight review
Though its tale of separated lovers is charming while it lasts, this isometric adventure is so short and simple that its gameplay potential quickly goes up in smoke.
Filament review
This sci-fi puzzler is as proficient at weaving a compelling narrative thread as it is presenting a host of challenging variations on a single wire-based conceit.
The Corruption Within review
Although plagued somewhat by its short length, this atmospheric retro-styled slideshow adventure brings out the best of the familiar gothic horror genre.
