Foretales is a mix of two flavors that go great together and a solid example of a video game that is a series of interesting choices that will keep you engaged for a long time.

Yes, it’s essentially Portal but with time manipulation instead of dimensional holes. But it’s also a great game on its own, particularly if you’re good at puzzles.

A psychedelic survival horror where you hit awesome nightmare creatures with flaming sage sticks, and fall over a lot.

An innovative, frequently goofy blend of adventure and alternate reality game where you use your actual voice in the service of solving puzzles.

A magically realistic combo of undersea action adventure and well themed restaurant management. Dave the Diver just keeps revealing delightful new surprises the more you play and the deeper you go.

A stylish, innovative mashing of two disparate genres that works well for the most part but is let down by overly repetitive and uninspired combat. Best experienced in short doses.

Not just a love letter, but an all out audio visual nostalgic 80s themed orgy. If you grew up playing adventure games in the late 80s, you’ll probably love it. Everyone else might feel a bit left out.

A Lego game that’s actually about building things! A fairly short, sometimes surprisingly challenging experience that’s let down by bugs, and a feeling that it was rushed to release.

A solid colony management game with a somewhat weak sci-fi theme and some early access goofiness, especially towards the late game.

A visually lavish story with a lite 80s kids sci-fi vibe told with heart and sincerity. A unique narrative mechanic allows you to see all possible outcomes before landing on the best one.
