God of Weapons

God of Weapons

God of Weapons takes the Vampire Survivors formula and simplifies it to the adventure taking place in a tower, ascending floors as you decimate enemies on the way to the boss. With a ton of weapons to unlock and builds to conquer, God of Weapons is a pretty fun time.

Monster Train 2

Monster Train 2

Monster Train 2’s variety and content does wonders for repeated runs, even back to back to back until you've lost track of time. The upgrades, equipment cards, and the synergies between the clans make for a very entertaining game, despite the forgettable story and character moments.

Doom: The Dark Ages

Doom: The Dark Ages

Doom: The Dark Ages is often a perfect successor to the rest of the trilogy, with some fantastic weapons, a great addition with the shield, and an absolutely breathtaking aesthetic. Still, the bland soundtrack and wide-open areas can zap the energy out of most encounters.

Trident's Tale

Trident's Tale

It's a fun swashbuckling adventure that plays like a Saturday morning cartoon. The characters are fairly likeable with mixed performances, but the ship combat and fights our hero, Ocean, will have are likely where people are going to get the most out of this game, even if they lack polish and features to make them stand out. 

Blades of Fire

Blades of Fire

Blades of Fire has moments where I do tend to forgive some of its blatant issues, but around every corner is a reason I tended to lose my interest in what it was offering. The combat and weapon systems are great when they work, but those moments only come so often. If Blades of Fire proves anything, it is that the Mercury Engine is well past its prime.

Roadcraft

Roadcraft

Much like building a road, you lay the foundation to build upon what is there. This is true with how Mudrunner and Snowrunner have shaped where this series is going. Roadcraft is the culmination of those ideas, mechanics, and gameplay sections to a degree where that complexity and depth is wildly addictive.
