Reveil is a short little walking simulator with a horror vibe, but it just didn't hook me. I forced myself to finish it for the sake of finishing it, because I knew it was a short game (-5h). The story makes absolutely no sense and the controls feel incredibly heavy but at least it is visually pleasing.

I smell no trouble, just a good RoboCop game.
The game plays and feels exactly like its predecessor, coming across more like a 10-hour standalone DLC than a completely new title. Still, the extra story is solid, and it's really easy to get 100% of the achievements in just a single playthrough.

Do you need to know Dune lore to play? Nope! I knew nothing and still loved it.
This is the first base-building/crafting game that has ever fully hooked me. The fact that the devs made PvP optional is a huge win for people who just want a great PvE experience.

It’s definitely easier and a lot of fun to build a base with a group of friends, but the game is still surprisingly great solo because there is an actual story and good missions to follow. Worth picking up either way!

My friends are so dumb they wouldn't have lasted 1 day as a pirate...
I wouldn't last 1 day against a gang of angry dodos.
10/10 game with your group of stupid friends.

Grabbed this on sale knowing nothing about it, and I am so glad I did. Eastshade is a fantastic mix of walking sim and puzzle game. It's a hidden gem ! Reminds me of Myst and Outer Wilds. The voice acting is nice and fun as well as the dreamy music. Despite a little bit of jank here and there, the game's charm completely overshadows it.

A nice, short puzzle game that's an easy 100% completion in under 5 hours. The gameplay itself is enjoyable and the story is okay, but honestly, it would have been a much better experience without the narrator. Overall, a decent pick-up on sales for a quick playthrough.

A nice little incremental gem. Fairly priced with a satisfying loop that doesn't drag on. You can hit 100% achievements in about 5 hours. Highly recommended for the price.

A fun, addictive little incremental game based on scratching lottery tickets. The early game is very manual and might literally give you a hand cramp from all the scratching, but it's highly satisfying once you unlock the automation. I managed to finish the game and get 100% of the achievements in under 20 hours. Definitely recommend!

I had a blast with LEGO Horizon Adventures. The environment is gorgeous and feels like a world built entirely out of bricks, rather than just LEGO characters dropped into a map. It feels very different and refreshing from the classic TT's formula.

This is my GOTY 2025 !
