Lunark is a new sci-fi action-adventure game from developer Canari Games. Lunark follows the story of Leo, as he uncovers one mystery after another throughout the world of Albaryne. Lunark is quite unique as it’s a throwback to the 90’s, itself being a cinematic platformer the likes of Prince of Persia or Flashback which Lunark heavily evokes the latter in presentation and gameplay.

Graphically speaking, King of Arcade looks a lot like one of those ROBOLOX games, each character is made of sharp angles and polygons. It’s not the greatest but it works for the game and helps sell low-budget arcade games. Besides the issues with the arcade games here, the other glaring problem is how the voice-over sounds.

Despite that, Minecraft Legends is a wonderful collection of genres that makes the usual RTS skill ceiling lower and approachable. Being a Minecraft game, Legends is set up for additional levels and scenarios via the Myths and Legends option at the main menu, which means the developers have plans to have fans continue mopping up Piglins for the foreseeable future.

Dead Island 2 delivers on the promise and provides and fun, sunny jaunt in a zombie-filled ‘HELL-A’ that is an absolute blast with friends but also fun in solo.

Not for Broadcast was a good time, while the later levels will test the reflexes of most due to the sheer number of things that are needed to juggle I never hated my time playing the game. The wit and humor here always managed to get a chuckle from me and the ability after each broadcast to replay your creation to see it uncut as the public did is a nice touch.

At the end of the day, Mato Anomalies feels like a budget title with a lot of things going for it. It has some decent mechanics and some interesting story bits if you are willing to read a lot. The RPG side of the game can have some difficulty spikes and level-grinding side dungeons will be needed in some instances, but for RPG fans and visual novel fans, if you can get past the different mechanics and are willing to learn some unconventional ones, this could be a decent experience for you even with the lower budget feel.

Road 96: Mile 0 wasn’t a very long game at all but I mostly enjoyed what I played. As I said it’s a prequel so I know there are things that I would have appreciated more had I played the original; that being said those fans looking forward to this will find a decently developed game. No real bugs are issues other than the juggling of the tone of the game, the rollercoaster ride of emotions wasn’t necessary in my opinion.

Terra Nil’s approach to take that very real fear of the worst environmental disaster but instead of continually stoking the flames of that fear they present you with the tools of opportunity of recovering from the brink, in a word showing that there is hope for a better tomorrow.

The story commentary on working culture, specifically office workers, comes through loud and clear. And having spent my time working in an office building I could relate and even laughed at quite a few of the jokes but what makes roguelites truly enjoyable is the loop that makes having to restart over and over again a joy just simply didn’t seem to be in Have a Nice Death.

Despite some shortcomings, Process of Elimination weaves an intriguing tale, bolstered by a cast of endearing characters. While it might not topple the giants in the visual novel genre, it is a story worth experiencing all the same.
