Unrailed!

Unrailed! Challenges players to team up and build a train track across an endless procedurally generated world. The twist is that it must be done while gathering the resources to make the tracks before the train that never stops moving runs out of tracks. The different biomes, each with its own challenges, and the frantic pace of the game make Unrailed! a blast to play, but it is definitely best experienced with friends.

Gameplay: Very simple to play, but things can quickly escalate if all players are not working in harmony.

Graphics: The art style is charming, but it can sometimes be hard to see exactly what is happening in the environment.

Sound: The soundtrack is catchy and features plenty of great tunes

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

Oxide Room 104

Oxide Room 104 is a horror title that drops players into the terrifying Night Soul Motel and challenges them to escape unscathed. However, death lurks around every corner, and the decisions players make will determine what ending they will receive. While the game is set almost entirely in the motel, it has a couple of interesting tricks up its sleeve that boost the replay value considerably. Oxide Room 104 is definitely a title all horror fans will enjoy, but Silent Hill players, in particular, should not miss out on this one.

Gameplay: The game is creepy and tense, while the penalty for dying ensures that players can’t become too complacent while exploring.

Graphics: Some textures and animations could have been better, but overall the game looks great for an indie title.

Sound: While the voice acting could have been much better, the music and sound effects are great
