TOEM review
This charming black-and-white isometric photography adventure is sure to make you smile for the precious few hours it takes to reach the end.
Distraint 2 review
Its lack of puzzle challenge is redeemed by a haunting atmosphere and a fearless exploration of dark themes in this atmospheric side-scrolling sequel.
Onirike review
Though lacking in puzzle challenge, this lovely Burton-esque action-adventure is a dream come true for those up for some surreal 3D platforming.
Nemezis: Mysterious Journey III review
Detalion's series revival is a visual delight, but enjoyment is regularly opposed by a confusing story, cumbersome interface and poor puzzles.
Death Off the Cuff – Remastered review
Now with music and illustrations, this charming text adventure has a few fun tricks up its sleeve in subverting the classic whodunit.
Maquette review
An impressive recursive puzzle world is modeled in beautiful 3D environments, but it's hard to love the characters driving the underlying romance story.
An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs review
The fetching can get tiresome, but there's plenty of humour and darker secrets to dig up in this unique open-world canine adventure.
The Secret of Retropolis review
We're blowing the lid off this short but highly entertaining VR-exclusive cartoon film noir adventure in a city of robots.
Not Another Weekend review
There are very few weak areas in this eighties-nostalgia-fueled adventure we recommend with little reservation.
Detective from the Crypt review
This supernatural point-and-click adventure is beautifully atmospheric, but no substantial investigative gameplay ever really materializes.
Root Film review
While still very much grounded in visual novel-style gameplay, the spiritual successor to Root Letter is a much-improved encore for fans of murder mysteries.
Operation: Tango review
It takes two to enjoy this slick asymmetrical co-op spy thriller, which is sneaky fun while it lasts, especially when you're forced to hustle.
Creepy Tale 2 review
The dark fairytale sequel feels more visually distinctive than its predecessor, but it's haunted by too many missteps proving that bigger isn't always better.
Hadr review
Making objects vanish with a magician's cloth is a clever conceit while it lasts, though any real challenge disappears right along with them.
The Forgotten City review
Reimaged from an award-winning Skyrim mod, this slickly produced time-looping mystery in a cursed Roman city is a truly memorable experience.
