Brigador: Great Leader Is Dead, Solo Nobre Must Fall
A tactical mech game where you flatten a neon city block by block, and the city remembers. Steep learning curve, excellent synthwave soundtrack, very satisfying once it clicks.

The most beautiful way to suffer ever made. Rain World will break your spirit, then slowly teach you how to survive in a world that doesn't care if you do.
What if poker was actually fun? A roguelike deckbuilder about building ridiculous hands and watching the numbers go into scientific notation. It will eat your evenings.
A tiny download that holds one of the densest, most rewarding exploration games I've played. It keeps going deeper, and deeper, and deeper.
More than a third of my PS4 collection turns out to be shoot-'em-ups. Arcade ports, M2's careful reissues, modern indies and twin-stick shooters, and how a console known for big cinematic games ended up with a shmup library this deep.
Thread: The PlayStation shelf ↗A VR game of tag where you move only by swinging your arms. It's brilliant, it's exhausting, and your furniture will not survive it unchanged.
My Nintendo Switch shortlist for local multiplayer, sorted by how many people are on the couch, from two-player co-op games that need teamwork to eight-player chaos.
Thread: Games and gear ↗A top-down SWAT tactics game where every mission is a puzzle and the planning is half the fun. It rewards patience and punishes you for rushing.
You don't control the hero. You build the world around him, one card at a time, and watch him walk the same loop until something kills him. It's weirdly addictive.
Fourteen quieter PlayStation 3 games from my list, averaging 81 on review scores, from Vanquish and Valkyria Chronicles to Folklore, Tokyo Jungle and Puppeteer, with who made them, why they got missed and where you can still play them.
Thread: The PlayStation shelf ↗A card game that isn't just a card game. I'm going to tell you as little as possible, because that's the best way to play it.
A short swashbuckling action game where you parry, kick guards down stairs and throw buckets at their heads. I wanted more of it, which is the only real complaint.
A farming game where the crops are bouncing slimes and the farm tool is a vacuum. Sixty-three hours in, it's still the game I put on when I want to unwind.
