Would you mind a little tower defense in your roguelite? Endless Dungeon delivers in style

SHOULD I PLAY ENDLESS DUNGEON? Do you love action-packed roguelite experiences? And do you mind if they have a little tower defense gameplay layered on top just for variety? If your answer to those questions is yes, then Endless Dungeon certainly deserves a shot. This latest spin-off of Amplitude Studios’ long-running Endless series shouldn’t be confused with 2014’s Dungeon of the Endless, though it’s also an intriguing blend of roguelike and tower defense with a sci-fi setting. But

What if you were lost in space? The Invincible is Firewatch with a science fiction twist

SHOULD I PLAY THE INVINCIBLE? Play it if you’re a fan of old-school hard science fiction, but skip it if you’re not big on interactive fiction. The Invincible tells a slow-paced but fascinating story based on the Stanislaw Lem novel of the same name. Dr. Yasna, a biologist on an interstellar mission, wakes up alone on a strange planet with no memory of how she got there. It’s a fantastic premise, and the story is expertly told, but the gameplay doesn’t always live up to the quality of the narrative. It’s not for everyone, but if you’ve enjoyed other walking simulators like

Calling all Undertale fans! Atlas Wept is a quirky pixel art RPG about empathy and robot dogs

SHOULD I PLAY ATLAS WEPT? If you’re a fan of EarthBound, Undertale, and other quirky turn-based RPGs, this is definitely a title you should take a look at. Atlas Wept is a pixelated RPG with strong retro vibes. The story alternates between two distinct casts of characters as they embark on a strange adventure. The groups haven’t crossed paths quite yet in my playthrough, but I suspect they’ll run into each other eventually. There’s a free demo available on Steam, so if this game has sparked your curiosity, you should definitely give it a try.

The New Genshin!? 🚀🤖

I don’t know what to say… :o it’s already extremely enjoyable..! It was worth the wait for it! I did not expect it to be a turn base kinda game! Character voice overs, loooooooove it, graphics…! Loooooooove it! Game play? LOOOOOOOVE it! I believe that this new game from Hoyoverze will be very successful as well as Genshin did and is still is to this day. They definitely know what they are doing when it comes to free RPHs will there also be a Garcha mechanic? Probably but regardless that you don’t necessarily HAVE to spend a single dime to enjoy the game. It was worth the wait tbh, now…I’m highly excited for it

A fast-paced cyberpunk roguelite shooter that does everything right - Deadlink Quick Review

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it. Deadlink is a sci-fi roguelite shooter that takes place in a futuristic world with robots, augmented humans, and greedy mega corporations. This visually stunning game perfects nearly everything a fast-paced roguelite shooter should be and adds its own spin on the genre with cyberpunk aesthetics. TIME PLAYED I played Deadlink for three hours. I defeated the first and second boss, as well as unlocked around ten permanent upgrades. I’ve attempted and failed over a dozen runs, with each one lasting anywhere between ten to twenty-plus minutes.

They turned Risk of Rain into a gacha game...and it almost works

SHOULD I PLAY RISK OF RAIN: HOSTILE WORLDS? The answer to this is going to depend a lot on what you’re looking for when you approach the game. Do you want a fun, fast, low-stakes action game on mobile with gacha and grinding for if you decide to get invested for the long haul? Then Risk of Rain: Hostile Worlds will give you everything you’re looking for. But if you’re a fan of Risk of Rain, its sequel

Heaven Dust 2: Striking Similarity to the Original

In 2020, the video game "Heaven Dust" boldly posed the inquiry, "What would happen if "Resident Evil 1" were presented with a top-down camera perspective?" The resultant offering manifested as a proficient action-adventure, notably more accessible than its muse due to the perpetual visibility of zombies. Presently, the emergence of "Heaven Dust 2" initiates a subsequent query—"What if the "Heaven Dust" narrative unfolded within a more expansive mansion?" Consequently, this sequel lacks the endearing qualities found in its forerunner. "Heaven Dust 2" unfolds in the aftermath of its predecessor, with the protagonist, Steve, awakening from the cryo pod wherein he had been confined after an abduction by corporate operatives. He discovers himself within another mansion besieged by rampant zombies. Regrettably, those anticipating a setting akin to a city immersed in a zombocalypse reminiscent of "Resident Evil 2" will likely find themselves disillusioned by the sequel's thematic choice.

Cyber Robot: Gun Fight | Android

It's a 2.5D metrodvania shoot'em-up starring a mecha warrior who uses five elements: metal, wood, water, fire and thunder to fight against an evil bissfire mecha. The levels are well structured and diversified, unfortunately being in beta the levels are limited. By AlessiaBNERD

This cyberpunk citybuilder has amazing visuals, but it's not as good as it looks

Fake Future has an intriguing concept and fantastic visuals, but it's held back by a clunky translation. This sci-fi citybuilder is set in a retro-futuristic version of earth. You control a group of artificial beings known as cybernoids as they work to recolonize Earth. While Fake Future started me off with plenty of quests, it didn't have any sort of tutorial, so it took me a while to get a handle on the gameplay. The in-game text doesn't always make sense, and the unclear quest objectives left me feeling confused and overwhelmed.

This sci-fi gacha game shows promise, but it's way too early

It's always exciting to get early access to a cool-looking game, but sometimes it's a little too early. Such is the case with Equinox: Dawn's Edge, a sci-fi gacha that's available for download in an early beta form now. This game makes a good first impression with some flashy cinematics and fast-moving auto-combat, but what awaits beyond those early moments is...pretty rough. From unfinished and untranslated text to missing sound effects to framerate drops and crashes, it's clear that Equinox is not remotely ready to be played by a wide audience at this point. Heck, the game didn't even give me an awesome cinematic when I pulled the gacha. How is a gacha game supposed to get people hyped to spend money without that?!

Uncover creepy radio signals in this sci-fi horror game - Oxenfree II: Lost Signals Quick Review

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it if you’re a fan of sci-fi, analog horror, or just like narrative-focused games. Oxenfree II: Lost Signals is a direct sequel to the original Oxenfree, but it’s surprisingly friendly to newcomers. Set five years after the first game, Lost Signals follows two brand-new characters: small town handyman Jacob and stoic screw-up Riley. There are moments that will hit harder if you’ve played the original, but it’s not overly reliant on old material, and it should make for a satisfying experience even if you treat it as a standalone game.

This horror game set on Mars is giving me Alien vibes in the best way

I hadn't heard much about upcoming horror game Fort Solis until I saw the above trailer, but watch this thing and try not to get hyped. The game takes place on a mysteriously deserted mining base on Mars, and players take on the role of an astronaut named Jake sent to investigate what happened. The trailer leaves it unclear what the actual threat lurking within Fort Solis is, which is great in my opinion. Let me be surprised when I play the actual game! But whatever it is, I'm getting

Core Devourer is a more visually polished sci-fi take on Vampire Survivors, and it rules

SHOULD I PLAY CORE DEVOURER? You need to play this. Core Devourer offers all the chaotic fun and action of Vampire Survivors but with a modern sci-fi touch. Despite still being in development, the demo version looks extremely well-made and crisp. While a few small balance issues might be a nuisance, everything else in Core Devourer feels incredible. If you’ve played and enjoyed Vampire Survivors or any of its many clones, you seriously don’t want to miss trying this one out.

An evolution of the Vampire Survivors clone... literally! - Bio Prototype Quick Review

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it if you’re at all a fan of Vampire Survivors and its many clones and imitators. Bio Prototype takes the one-tiny-character-versus-hundreds-of-baddies and adds in a healthy dose of science. You play as a lab experiment gone wrong. Instead of just leveling up and unlocking a growing list of power-ups, you earn both internal and external body parts and must work out a functioning evolutionary path for your creation. This extra layer of depth adds a ton to an already addictive genre of games.

Starfield is a buggy, frustrating mess, but I love it anyway

Starfield is a pile of mismatched puzzle pieces that don’t quite fit together. That might sound like harsh criticism, but there are plenty of times when its disjointed nature works in the game’s favor. There are a million things to do in Starfield at any given point in time, so when one aspect of the game wasn’t working for me, I could just focus on something else. Directing my attention towards a specific gameplay mechanic or subplot usually made
