  • Bone’s Cafe is a slower non roguelite cafe game were you get to kill and cook your customers. It has been lots of fun.

    Kingdom 2 Crowns is a great little game of frustration but it’s only 2 people but it’s pretty and the soundtrack slaps and it’s a fun settlement building and protection game.

    Everyone is already recommending Hazelight Studio games but I will jump on that too cause they are amazing.

    And just to shake things up:
    The Lego games. They are classic and usually a good time. Campy humor. Murder your friends. And they are pretty cheap as the whole collections these days.

    Edit: Oh and Ship of Fools was fun. Simple crowded bullet hell slapstick roguelite on a tiny ship with guns.




  • Nintendo also recently did the Pokenon sleep app which was about tracking your sleep and a bunch of wearables have been shouting they intend to get better about it too…

    I don’t know if I want to know why suddenly data on People’s sleep patterns is so profitable but yeah no way am I inviting data tracking and biometric harvesting into my bed with me.








  • Golf Club Nostalgia(917 Reviews)

    This is a game that isn’t here for the game play. I think if you are paying at all attention to the boring dystopia, or climate collapse communities then this will hit in a way that is hard to define.

    Its a golf game. Simple, could be played on a phone really, but you have to have the sound on for this one.
    You are a member of the elite refugees who have fled to Mars and only return back to Earth to use the husk of a planet for a round of golf. And your companion is a lone radio broadcast from Mars of what they have left, which is stories and the rare music that was saved.

    The combination of overwhelmingly good world building and consistent vibe even down to the level names and journal entries hits like a train and made me cry at least a couple times.
    It made me feel nostalgiac for a world that has not yet come to pass and is a great on sale pick.

    I know you said less than 1,000 reviews but this is at 1,500 so I think it just squeaks by.

    This game for lack of a better description, adorable and over too soon.

    Like a mashup of pikmim, Spyro 2, and Tony Hawk Pro Skater. It’s got lots of fun platforming and new puzzle mechanics in an ever adding open world that is a true joy to traverse and cute silly little side plots that make for rather grand set pieces when it all comes together. I got 100% in 12 hours but also collect-a-thons are my jam and I was plowing through the game with grin on my face for everything but the platinum time trials.
