Heaven’s Hope review
Falling just a little short of its desired heights, this enjoyable point-and-click angelic adventure does provide a little taste of heaven on earth.
That Dragon, Cancer review
Pulling no punches, this exploration of one family's courageous battle against terminal illness is a deeply moving experience.
The Slaughter: Act One review
The three-part Victorian era murder mystery eases into what looks to be a ripping good yarn to come.
Deponia Doomsday review
The surprise fourth installment will knock you for a loop in a time-traveling madcap adventure that's part-sequel, part-prequel.
Shardlight review
Wadjet Eye's latest is another great slice of sci-fi worldbuilding, though the story doesn't shine as brightly as its unique post-apocalyptic setting.
Downfall (redux) review
Reimagined in the style of The Cat Lady, Rem Michalski's first adventure is a brutally effective psychological horror with just a few reservations.
Oxenfree review
The slickly presented, narrative-driven horror story is effectively tuned into the authentic teenage experience
The Witness review
Jonathan Blow's ambitious open-world puzzler is a triumph of challenging gameplay, though any semblance of story gets lots in its abundant mazes.
Firewatch review
Be on the lookout for this rich character-driven journey, even if some of its smouldering promise is snuffed out along the way.
Mirrored: Chapter 1 review
There's barely a glimpse of this planned three-part thriller offered in the single-room debut installment.
Between Me and the Night review
Though rich in atmosphere, this platforming-adventure hybrid is tripped up by its shallow story and dodgy puzzles.
Masochisia review
This raw, dark and disturbing story-driven experience cuts to the bone of child abuse and mental illness.
Aviary Attorney review
Not merely parroting Phoenix Wright, this beautifully distinctive 19th century French adventure is a hoot in its own right.
Caffeine: Episode One review
This three-part sci-fi exploration series barely begins percolating with a debut installment that doesn't fully mine its premise.
Adventurezator: When Pigs Fly review
This two-in-one fairy tale adventure and game creator has all the proper ingredients, but doesn't have the recipe just right quite yet.
