A hack and slash veteran in the genre has returned with a banger. Although the silent protagonist trope is overused, I personally play these games for the gameplay. And the gameplay delivers!

Atomic Heart is a stunning shooter with rich visuals, great music, and flexible upgrades, but suffers from clunky puzzles, slow map navigation, relentless robot repairs, and unskippable cutscenes.

A cosy resource manager set in space. Mine resources, refine them, combine them, and transfer them between comets in order to craft the required end product to move on to the next section.

After earth was destroyed, a small space station is set off on a space adventure to preserve humanity in this unique city builder. Maintain your peoples trust, and find a new home for everyone.

Hordelord pits you in a high octane arena shooter where you rush around zipping through waves of enemies, unleash brutal weapons, upgrade with tarot cards, and chase leaderboard glory!

A SWAT FPS in which you take control of your SWAT team and lead them to victory by breaching, peeking, flashing, kicking, busting, shooting, zip tying, rescuing, and clearing a variety of maps.

Resembling Civ in the visual style and in some ways gameplay, it is a moderately strong entry in the genre but not without its flaws. Focusing on terraforming the map to gain advantage and access.

Build settlements, get them producing unique resources, and watch them trade with each other while you profit from the trade tax. It is a micro economy management game, forgiving, but not hand holdy.

A city built at the back of a giant beast that is constantly moving through various environments. Each environment brings a unique challenge to overcome. One of the most creative city builders yet!

A game in which you must terraform a barren planet in exchange for serving your prison sentence. Survive, terraform, explore, reveal secrets of the past, and ultimately find a way out.
