The Medium sees players help a young woman with psychic abilities explore two realities in search of answers. The game is set in an abandoned communist resort that is home to many secrets as well as a few restless spirits. While The Medium won’t win any awards for its puzzles or chase sequences, the story is interesting and the visuals beautiful. The game does have its fair share of issues but offers a compelling experience for fans of the genre.
Gameplay: Nothing groundbreaking, but the dual-reality shenanigan is a nice feature.
Graphics: The environments look incredible as do the creature designs.
Sound: The soundtrack is beautiful, but the voice acting is a little uneven

Tested on Humans follows in the same escape room footsteps of its predecessor, Palindrome Syndrome. However, instead of the science fiction environments of the first game, ToH is a more grounded experience. Players take control of Alex, a woman who finds herself confined to a cell in what appears to be a medical facility. To avoid the fate of her fellow test subjects, Alex must solve several different puzzles that will ultimately lead to her freedom. The puzzles are challenging without being too obscure and the overall presentation is very good for an indie title. If you are a puzzle fan who enjoys thinking out of the box, then Tested on Humans comes highly recommended.
Gameplay: The puzzles are challenging and varied.
Graphics: The setting is more down-to-earth compared to Palindrome Syndrome, but still good.
Sound: The soundtrack is great and the voice acting is decent

Graphics: Gris features a beautiful art style and great animations.
Sound: The audio consists of an incredible soundtrack and great sound effects

House of Caravan is a first-person exploration and puzzle game set entirely in a small, deserted mansion. The limited amount of puzzles are disappointing, to say the least, and slowly creeping through the mansion opening every cabinet and drawer grows old very quickly. Thankfully, the game can be completed in less than 90 minutes, provided you manage to avoid the bugs and wonky physics. This game could have done a lot more with the story and setting but ended up falling far short in all areas.
Gameplay: Slow, tedious, and boring.
Graphics: Decent enough, but very dark.
Sound: Stilted voice acting and unmemorable music
