SHOULD I PLAY TIME TO STRIKE? If you like finding ways to break your favorite games, stop what you’re doing and download the Time to Strike demo right now. This bullet hell roguelike starts off simple, but it lets you mod your weapons in some truly insane ways. Want a gun that spawns explosive critters? How about a baseball bat that fires shurikens? Time of Strike lets you do all that and more, and it’s a blast. Finding the best weapon synergies felt like solving a puzzle, and that made putting together an overpowered build extremely satisfying.

Downloaded with a friend expecting nothing but a copy paste fighting game, however there was surprising charm to it that has kept us coming back and keeping it within our regular game rotation.

SHOULD I PLAY FARSIDERS? With plenty of better action RPGs around right now, it’s probably safe to skip Farsiders. While the artwork and soundtrack are delightful, the story is a jumbled mess of ideas and the English translation is poorer still. There are some neat ideas for combat, but the dull AI and sludgy pace keep it from ever feeling exciting. TIME PLAYED I played Farsiders for two and a half hours. I traveled through a portal from a violent cyberpunk city to a fantastical, alien version of Camelot, where King Arthur and his knight Lancelot sent me to retrieve moonstone fragments that were meant to be attached to Excalibur. I recovered the first fragment after fighting my way through a treehouse casino deep in a swamp, and I’ve gained several new skills and spells as I leveled up my character, Camilla.

SHOULD I PLAY FOAMSTARS? Play it, especially if you like the Splatoon franchise. Foamstars offers all the fun and chaotic gameplay of Splatoon but it’s on PlayStation hardware instead of Nintendo. It’s basically a Splatoon clone for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, and that’s the whole appeal of the game. While a few visual design and matchmaking issues need to be addressed, what’s here in this launch is actually really fun and entertaining.

SHOULD I PLAY ORDER & CHAOS: GUARDIANS? Skip it, unless you really adore auto-battler games and are desperate for a new one. Order & Chaos: Guardians looks good enough and this test version is very generous, but everything in this game has been done before by a dozen other auto-battler gacha games. It doesn’t have the depth or strategy to keep me engaged nor anything else unique to set it apart from the competition.

SHOULD I PLAY MY HERO ULTRA RUMBLE? Skip it unless you’re obsessed with battle royale games or the My Hero Academia series. My Hero Ultra Rumble is a free-to-play title that combines the core gameplay of battle royale with some elements from fighting games. Although it captures some of the style that has made the anime and manga so popular, it’s plagued by poor design choices, from progression walls to an abundance of microtransactions.

T3 Arena is a real game changing game for 2022. While we were sitting playing old battle royales, we needed a cartoonish multiplayer game like Overwatch did in 2016. With Overwatch 2 being a shit game T3 Arena finally gave us the game which certain people like me were longing for. I would also like to add Hyper Front for giving us a glimpse of what Valorant mobile would be like.

A super cute dungeon-based game that is fully action-packed and entertaining. The game has a great storyline and is based on the adventure of a warrior trying to protect his kingdom. The first thing I noticed in this game is the cute pixel art, which is very detailed and nicely designed. Even the visual effects are very clear and sharp. Due to this, the gameplay was very smooth and easy. Next, the sound effects are pretty good as well. The game consists of fast-paced action controls to attack and destroy the enemies while progressing from one dungeon to another. There are a lot of abilities, weapons, armors, and potions that can assist the player in easy gaming. As an offline game, this one is really good because the entertainment value and addictive gameplay it provides are worth the time. There are boss levels that appear frequently, which were again simple but can get a little challenging sometimes. Another thing I liked about this game is the variety of characters. There are a lot of characters in this game, which was easily noticeable. I loved playing this game, but I still have some feedback. As we progress in the game over the long run, I expected some constant indication from the game as to where we are heading. For example, when I reached level 20, I didn't quite understand my overall progress in the game. At what stage am I considering the main storyline of the game? Generally in such cases, the game can provide pop-up messages or show a percentage indicator of how much we have completed the game. It's just something that can be added in here. There are other boards related to stats and other information, which was a good idea in terms of the UI. But the above point can be added as well. Rest apart, it's a fun time killer game!!!

SHOULD I PLAY GUNBRELLA? Play it. Instead of reinventing the wheel with flashy features or next-gen visuals, Gunbrella perfects the standard elements of a side-scrolling action-adventure game. The result is a wildly entertaining journey of platforming, exploration, and monster-slaying. TIME PLAYED I played Gunbrella for four hours, traversing four of the game’s five areas. I’ve already defeated two bosses in the game and completed nearly a dozen main quests. I’m currently trying to make my way to the last area in the game.

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it! Crime O’Clock is a cartoony puzzle point-and-click investigation game about agents that go back in time to find clues and solve crimes before they’re even committed. It’s a flawless deduction game that merges time-traveling with point-and-click gameplay and simple puzzles to create an engaging and entertaining crime-solving experience. TIME PLAYED I played Crime O’Clock

SHOULD I PLAY DIMENSION HUNTER? Check this one out if you’re into roguelites and like bullet hell mechanics, but skip it if you’re not that into the genre. Dimension Hunter is a fun and fast-paced dungeon crawler that’s easy to pick up and play, but aside from its awesome pixel art, it doesn’t do anything that makes it stand out from the crowd. It might not be the most original game, but there are plenty of cool power-ups and weird monsters to fight, so die-hard roguelite fans should definitely give it a try.

SHOULD I PLAY CLASH MINI? Even fans of Clash Royale or Clash of Clans are likely to be disappointed with this one. I practically grew up playing Supercell games, and I’ve always appreciated the simplicity and casual gameplay that their games offered. But Clash Mini is just too simple and casual. While the mini characters look cute and all, the simplified auto chess gameplay failed to keep me invested for long.

SHOULD I PLAY RAINBOW SIX MOBILE? Play it. Rainbow Six Mobile is the latest addition to the Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six franchise, and it’s a prime example of how to adapt PC and console games for mobile devices. There are a few technical issues and some awkward character designs, but Rainbow Six Mobile’s exceptional build and gameplay make it a title to watch. Get out of the way, Call of Duty: Mobile

Towaga: Among Shadows is a casual but insanely fun action-adventure game with beautiful 2D visuals and smooth animation that explores a world of darkness from the perspective of a light-bringing warrior. After an hour of monster slaying, I’ve come to enjoy Towaga: Among Shadows’s simple shoot ‘em up gameplay and storyline. In Towaga: Among Shadows, I embarked on an adventure to save a stunning Aztec-themed world from evil monsters seeking to ravage everything in its sight. I had to battle against various creatures using abilities and a beam of light that I could redirect willingly with the swoosh and hold of a finger. I’ve found the story mode more enjoyable so far, despite only dabbling in the game’s survival mode, but I’ve yet to play multiplayer.

SHOULD I PLAY WILDMENDER? If you like cozy farming games, you should play this one. Wildmender is a game about restoring a desert back to life using magic and plants. This relaxing experience that can be enjoyed alone or with friends in the game’s co-op mode. Wildmender can feel a little boring at times thanks to some grindy elements, but it’s still a great alternative if you’re looking for a slightly different take on life-sims like

SHOULD I PLAY YES, YOUR GRACE? Check it out if you like choice-based games and court intrigue. Yes, Your Grace is a kingdom management RPG where you respond to requests from your loyal—and not-so-loyal—subjects. There aren’t enough resources to give everyone what they need, and that means making some tough decisions. If you’re a fan of Reigns or similar titles, you should definitely give this a try.

SHOULD I PLAY MOLECANO? Play this, especially if you’re looking for something casual. Molecano combines the puzzling gameplay of Wordscapes with the strategy of Scrabble to create a fresh and engaging puzzle game where I had to create words and use them to build bridges to find food. While the pesky ad breaks annoyed me after a while, Molecano offers all the fun needed to enjoy solving simple word puzzles on the fly.
