Lootbound: moving a sword one square changes your whole build, and that is where its real depth hides

Lootbound: moving a sword one square changes your whole build, and that is where its real depth hides

A dark fantasy roguelite where inventory layout is the build. Brilliant on that ground, but this is not an RPG.

One Last Hand: the title is exactly what we used to say at 4am, and the game knows it

Bid in secret, steal your neighbour's card, then turn your hand into a slap. A card game built to end in an argument.

Shippin: Dredge without the fear, and the real question that raises

A misty sea world, ports to rescue and a mystery to unravel. But without the night-time tension that gave Dredge its bite.

The Legend of Mala Tokmachka: a fortress of odds and ends, and a studio that refuses to pick a side

Build a fortress block by block and hold an endless siege. The game draws on a dramatic news story, but refuses to comment on it.

TV Archive: I expected the boredom of the wine cellar, and I ended up in a 1998 video shop

3,180 tapes to file, solo, in co-op or head to head. A tidying game with the good sense to automate the work for you.

Clawed: an abandoned dinosaur park, a convincing atmosphere, and a resemblance worth discussing

Clawed: an abandoned dinosaur park, a convincing atmosphere, and a resemblance worth discussing

Prehistoria, a ruined park, puzzles and predators. The atmosphere works, and the kinship with a certain 1993 film deserves a closer look.

Defender of the Crown The Legend Returns: nostalgia works, and the game is smart enough not to bet on it alone

Defender of the Crown The Legend Returns: nostalgia works, and the game is smart enough not to bet on it alone

Three modes: the original Amiga preserved, a modernised rereading, and a brand new mode with generated maps. The right way to bring a classic back.

Dinosaur: very pretty, very empty, and a long way from what Zoo Tycoon already did in 2002

Dinosaur: very pretty, very empty, and a long way from what Zoo Tycoon already did in 2002

An island editor with no limits, 50+ species and the ability to control a dinosaur. But no trace of the management that defines the genre.

Duskfade: the fluidity reminds you of Jet Set Radio Future, the real lineage lies elsewhere

Jump, dash, glide and slash through a world frozen in eternal night. An owned love letter to the 3D platformers of old.
