Frog Detective 1: The Haunted Island

Frog Detective 1: The Haunted Island

Frog Detective 1: The Haunted Island is a very short, very linear, and very easy adventure starring a detective who is also a frog. This case takes players to a tiny island where a small sloth has been the victim of haunting for weeks. Players must crack the case and figure out if there is really a mysterious ghost behind it all or if something else is afoot. The game can be completed in less than an hour and barely contains anything that could be considered challenging. However, the charming visuals, irreverent sense of humor, and wacky cast of characters will definitely appeal to some players.

Gameplay: All that is required to solve the mystery is talking to the cast of animal characters and getting them the items that they want.

Graphics: While the 3D visuals lack detail the art style has a lot of charm and the animations in particular can be very funny.

Sound: The soundtrack is decent, but the game lacks sound effects or voice acting to help bring its world more to life

Dishonored – The Knife of Dunwall

Dishonored – The Knife of Dunwall

The Knife of Dunwall is a welcome return to the world of Dishonored, but players are treated to Daud’s point of view this time. Dishonored veterans will remember Daud as the legendary assassin who killed the Empress, but this DLC shows a different side to him. As with the original game, players can cause as much chaos as they want or go for a more stealthy approach. Both offer a lot of fun, but being stealthy is definitely a lot more rewarding. The cautious approach also allows players to savor the relatively brief experience a bit longer. Fans of Dishonored will love The Knife of Dunwall, but it doesn’t offer anything radically new, and it does feel like half a game due to the abrupt ending.

Gameplay: Whether killing everyone in sight or trying never to be seen, The Knife of Dunwall offers a fun and rewarding experience.

Graphics: The visuals show their age, but the unique art style makes up for technical shortcomings.

Sound: The audio is once again excellent, but some of the dialogue between guards is repeated a little too often for our liking

PowerWash Simulator

PowerWash Simulator

PowerWash Simulator does precisely what the name says, with players handed a power washer and unleashed on various dirty locations and vehicles. Different upgrades, as well as a variety of game modes, will keep players busy for ages, but the game can become quite repetitive. However, it is a very relaxing and casual experience that is great for enjoying while listening to something else in the background.

Gameplay: Very simple and straightforward, but quite fun and relaxing.

Graphics: There are lots of different levels and plenty of variety in the vehicles that need cleaning.

Sound: No music, but the ambient noises and effects add to the relaxing atmosphere of the game

The Mortuary Assistant

The Mortuary Assistant

The Mortuary Assistant is a horror title where players must perform a series of stomach-churning tasks to prepare the deceased for burial. This would have been bad enough if it wasn’t for the fact that the mortuary is also home to a demonic entity with its sights set on the protagonist, Rebecca Owens. Unless players can help Rebecca identify the demon and then burn it along with the correct body, she risks possession or worse. However, this is easier said than done when the clock is ticking, and paranormal activity is ramping up around her. Overall, The Mortuary Assistant is a must-own title for fans of the genre and one of the best horror games of 2022.

Gameplay: The Mortuary Assistant is short but very replayable, and each shift will leave players on the edge of their seats.

Graphics: The visuals are good, and the game knows how to use visual scare tactics well, but squeamish players might not enjoy the mortuary tasks.

Sound: The voice acting is decent, and the ambient noises, as well as sound effects, are top-notch

Bugsnax

Bugsnax

On the surface, Bugsnax is a game about finding and capturing adorable critters with googly eyes and pun-filled names using an assortment of wacky traps. However, things take a strange turn when using these same critters to feed and mutate the other characters in the game. Nevertheless, catching Bugsnax is fun, especially as it often requires some out-of-the-box thinking or creative use of your traps. The lack of any real danger makes the game suitable for younger players too, but to get the most out of the experience, players should definitely complete all the side quests.

Gameplay: Capturing all the Bugsnax in sight is fun despite some repetition, and the memorable cast of characters all have interesting stories to unravel.

Graphics: The designs of the Bugsnax are hilarious, and the game world is very vibrant, but the way you can mutate other Grumpusses by feeding them the Bugsnax can yield alarming results.

Sound: Bugsnax features a stellar cast of voice actors along with a very catchy soundtrack
