A combat heavy metroidvania, with a tedious early game, which only starts to warm up midway. Co-op elements feel lopsided, with one character being miserable to use. The narrative isn't the worst.

Dive The Depths has clear Risk of rain Inspiration, such as gradual damage escalation (and some presentation elements). That said, there's some definite optimization issues, and lacking replayability.

As a follow up to First Date, this entry in the series provides new mechanics to contend with- adding a survival horror element to the gameplay. Sadly, there's less Eldritch girls to ogle.

A focused Boss Battler which tasks players with surviving a series of frantic boss battles. There's a fairly robust degree of character customization, partially tied to completing boss specific goals.

A challenging boss battler with a heavy soulslike influence. Not only are the fights incredibly varied, multi phase challenges- it provides a solid world to explore, secrets to find, and lore to read.

While Dark Light stumbles insofar as its identity as a Metroidvania, it manages to be a fairly engaging Action Platformer, with an interesting world to explore.

A bite sized Metroidvania-esque title, whose condensed map still manages to provide some solid obstacles and boss fights. While not as heavy on the exploration side, platforming and combat is fun.

The sequel to Nairi: Tower Of Shirin- this continues to build off the story of its predecessor, while also offering a very healthy handful of new and novel puzzles to engage with.

An extremely clever deck-building rogue-lite that takes the concept of Poker and turns it on its head. Despite the seemingly simple premise, it offers a lot of complexity. Highly addictive.

A clever deckbuilding rogue, which not only provides engaging mechanics, but continually evolves them over 3 distinct parts. There great puzzles baked into the mix as well, paired with the story.
