Stealth is optional; it’s always a funny line to most when playing a stealth-based game, especially to those who choose to charge right in like a bull in a glass shop, but in this game, it is not only necessary but also prudent to do so. Published by Megabit Publishing
The moment Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 boots up, it feels like you’ve been strapped into a chainsworld and hurled straight into the Eye of Terror. This is not subtle; it’s not gentle, and it absolutely does not care if you survive the opening scenes. Developer Auroch Digital, in partnership with publishers Big Fan Games and Devolver Digital, doubles down on

ASKA is the Viking survival game you never knew you craved. No longer will I wonder what managing unruly Vikings is like—now it’s my full-time occupation! This gem, brought to us by the development team at Sand Sailor Studio and Thunderful Publishing, has kept me on the grind for hours.
Ground Zero doesn’t hide what it wants to be.

Whenever a game describes itself as a Souls-like, a little part of me screams with joy. It’s by far my favourite sub-genre within gaming, but how does 2nd Eve, developed and published by Gamer Cloud, handle these expectations? You play as Sister Superior Zola, a nun who is tasked with

‘Skull Horde’, developed and published by 8BitSkull, is very much my sort of game. It’s simple but challenging, basic but interesting; a combination that just works for me.
