When you mention FromSoftware, everyone automatically jumps to Dark Souls, or maybe Elden Ring now, given how monstrously popular that game was. However, before they started Soulslikes, they made a variety of other games. While I’d love to turn this into an article about Lost Kingdoms, I’ve...

Mothergunship is a bullet-hell FPS game where you get to create your own guns out of different component parts. It plays a bit like Doom, with you being able to run about at high speeds and hop around as you shoot at things, and while the gameplay is genuinely enjoyable, the joy of the game comes...

The latest entry in the legendarily violent one on one fighting game series, Mortal Kombat 1 is simultaneously a narrative reset for this much beloved brawler and also a continuation of everything that we saw with Mortal Kombat 11. With all new characters joining a raft of faces from the past, in...

The best cyberpunk games let you fight back against the evils of capitalism, enjoy the neon sights, and hopefully get some cool robot limbs or something. It’s basically what a rebellion nowadays would be like in the real world, but with the bonus of having useful robotic parts, instead of just...

The best space exploration games are the ones that inspire wonder. It’s not necessarily about going into space itself, it’s more about the feeling of awe that such a thing would cause. That feeling that you’re seeing something genuinely otherworldly, and it’s a feeling that a lot of people...

August is somehow one of the most offensively stacked months of the year for indie games, and it’s almost a bit much. Seriously, could we all just chill out a little bit? How on Earth is anyone meant to actually find time to play all of these incredible indie games? We do this for a living, and...

The best CRPGs are about to change because Baldur’s Gate 3 is launching soon, and there’s no conceivable way that it doesn’t just flat-out ruin all of our spare time, our families, our work/life balance, and our sense of reality. It’s also going to have a big old impact on any list of the...

Armored Core 6 is coming, and it's coming soon. For those about to mech, you might be wondering what the best mech games are that you can jump into in the meantime. After all, patience may well be a virtue, but in this modern age of convenience and a frightening number of games, we say that...

With its genre defining world-building, neo-noir detective beats and damaged characters all underscored by a stirring, ruinous futurist aesthetic (not to mention Vangelis evocative and timelessly melancholic score), Ridley Scott’s seminal Blade Runner has long earned its place as not just an...

Developed by Round8 Studio and published by Korean outfit NEOWIZ, Lies of P is an atmospheric Soulslike that pulls on both the design bedrock of FROM Software’s legendary series and also Carlo Collodi’s beloved fairytale, Pinoochio. An enticing mix of influences to say the least, this game...

Gem Wizards Tactics came out back in 2021 for Steam and 2022 for Switch, but frankly, not enough people are talking about it. This delightful turn-based strategy game has five factions to choose from, including Potatoes, and The Business Demons, each of which has its own unique take on how to take...

Necrosmith is a lot of things. It’s a necromancer simulator; it’s a bullet hell; it’s a strategy game; it’s a tower defence game. It sounds muddled, but it’s actually not. Basically, each run kicks off with you in your tower with only a handful of skeleton body parts to your name. Each...
