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

If you like Subnautica and Raft Survival, you need to check out this upcoming crafting game

SHOULD I PLAY DRIFTOPIA? If you’re a fan of crafting and like survival games, this is definitely a title to watch! Driftopia is a crafting and survival game set on a world that’s almost completely covered in water. To gather resources, I had to swim through dangerous waters, search for goods underwater, and drift from one island to the next on my trusty raft. The current version of the game is pretty rough, but the concept shows a lot of promise, and since the game is still in beta, I’m not overly concerned about the bugs. These issues definitely need to be addressed before the full release, but Driftopia is still shaping up to be a very addictive game.

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

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 is not my kind of game, but it's still one of the most beautiful games I've ever played. Perhaps the most impressive feature was one I stumbled upon by mistake. Pop-up windows, which are convenient if you're just doing that task, can also be moved around for when you're doing something else. The tutorial is extremely complete. It explains each step with an animated tutorial that doesn't take over or block the remaining UI. Blocking out the UI makes things easier to see, but it also makes them easier to forget. This tutorial was handled extremely well in every way.

If you skipped Warhammer 40,000: Darktide or stopped playing, it's time to give it another shot

Despite being made by the same team that created the beloved Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide and Warhammer: Vermintide 2, players were very lukewarm on last year's Warhammer 40,000: Darktide. The mixed reviews on Steam pointed to tons of bugs, a lack of content, and unrewarding progression as major problems contributing to the lack of excitement. Well, developer Fatshark has been working away at Darktide for a year now, improving on those issues with patches adding new content, balancing classes and abilities, and squashing legions of bugs. That all culminates in the just-launched Patch 13, which completely overhauls how classes and leveling work in the game.

A weirdly upbeat game about space murders - Dubium Quick First impressions

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Skip it for now, unless you’re very excited about social deduction games and the goofy sci-fi aesthetics work better for you than they do for me. Dubium has a lot of good things going for it, but the theme and visual style seemed totally at odds with the idea of scrambling to get a space station back online in order to destroy hazardous materials stored on board—while always looking over my shoulder for a fellow crew member waiting for the right moment to kill me.

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.

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?!

Shadowgun Legends is certainly not the most original shooter in the world, indeed it is decidedly derivative in every aspect, but nevertheless it is able to offer an FPS experience of the highest level, probably the best that can be found at the moment on iOS and Android. In fact, we are talking about a game that is not only really beautiful to look at, but above all full of missions, objects, weapons, skills to unlock, with cooperative and competitive multiplayer modes to act as a Tasty icing on the cake.

This first-person parkour game is the perfect follow-up to Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty

SHOULD I PLAY GHOSTRUNNER 2? If you love the cyberpunk aesthetic or are looking for something with a similar vibe to play after wrapping up Cyberpunk 2077’s new DLC, then yes, definitely give this one a shot. Ghostrunner 2 is the sequel to a first-person sci-fi ninja game that launched back in 2020. That first game was already an awesome, adrenaline-pumping journey through a messed up neon future, but this one amps everything up to eleven. It is a supremely challenging, brutal, and beautiful game that deserves your attention.

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.

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.
