ABZÛ
Once ABZÛ slows down and lets its atmosphere sink in, it finally begins to shine.
Final Fantasy IX
The modern re-release of Final Fantasy IX makes a few minor but consequential changes that ultimately diminish the overall quality.
Hyper Light Drifter
Hyper Light Drifter does its inspirations enough justice to warrant a recommendation, but it also hosts a number of imperfections that keep it from true greatness.
That Dragon, Cancer
That Dragon, Cancer serves its purpose, but that purpose may not be something you want to spend money on.
Unravel
On average, Unravel is pleasantly distracting.
OneShot
If you’re playing OneShot, you’re probably doing so for the story and the surprise, and in those regards, it doesn’t disappoint.
Stardew Valley
I kept coming back to Stardew Valley, but I found myself constantly wondering if it was worth the time investment.
The Witness
I think The Witness is the most I’ve ever been absorbed by a game that I didn’t find particularly entertaining.
Frog Fractions 2
Conceptually, I’d actually consider Frog Fractions 2 better than the original. In practice, though, maintaining the parody is often given priority over entertaining the player.
Glittermitten Grove
Glittermitten Grove has a reputation as an inconsequential joke game, so I’m shocked to have found it a genuinely enjoyable experience.
