Kusan: City of Wolves is a tough but fun action adventure top-down shooter. It often made me scream, but I enjoyed the cruelty, stylish graphics, and gory and dark gameplay. If you hate losing, this will not be the game for you!

Terrinoth Heroes of Descent is a very good time. There’s 4 chapters each with 5 self-contained missions. The dungeons are decently large and can be labrynthian at times, but I very rarely found myself lost. The game is a good length. the dungeons are varied in both design and enemy types and even though turn-based games aren’t usually my cup o’ tea I did genuinely enjoy this fun little dungeon crawler. I would absolutely recommend this game.

This rating could be higher if the game just had a little more polish, but for the price, you can’t really complain. If you’re into smashing ivory balls into leather-laced pockets, give Top Shot Pool a go.

A nice tool for making Cyberpunk dioramas, with an easy to use toolkit. Could do with a bit more content, though, and the fun nosedives after a build is finished.

Overall, this was not an exceptionally good game, from the graphical issues to mechanical ones has left this game with too many issues to count. While these issues are ones that personally make the game unfun for me, I will say that this could be an enjoyable game for people who enjoy survival simulation games. If you enjoy games of this genre then by all means give it a go, just because it is not my cup of tea does not mean it is not worth a go.

If you are looking for a quick and satisfying simulation game that offers a blend of calm and chaos, then Doomsday Diner is the perfect game for you. It offers a unique art direction in the genre that leans heavily on the Borderlands series. The gameplay loop is satisfying and keeps things interesting through frantic days. There is a skill ceiling and, unfortunately, also a ceiling to how much time you can spend in this wasteland. The game could benefit from some cosmetic goals, but as it currently stands, Doomsday Diner is a great simulation game that you can play to relax (and stress) over the weekend.

Atomic Owl is a hybrid experience that is smooth and stylish. With Metroidvania-lite elements, plenty of platforming madness, and exciting combat, there is plenty to get your teeth into. However, repetition sets in and the rogue-like element feels a bit of an afterthought.

Petunia's Purgatory is a creepy-cute idle farming desktop companion. Developed by Dead Possum Games and published by Level Up Gaming, Petunia's Purgatory blends a cute farming game with the creepy aesthetics of Eldritch horror. An ancient Elder God lurks within the barn and demands Petunia to feed it a variety of creepy crops. Petunia will (or will not) need to keep her sanity filled, otherwise strange visual effects occur on the farm and desktop. Most farming tasks are automated, and with the help of various sprites and buildings, Petunia's Purgatory can run idle on the desktop as you focus on other tasks. Personally, not a game I can get into, but definitely a recommendation if you think that you could!

Overall, Quarantine Zone: The last check is a fun game that tries to do something different with the zombie genre. But the repetitive end game and the pointless drone shooting minigame do unfortunately let it down. The NPC’s should also try to help like eliminating zombies fo example as they don’t do anything during the game. It’s not a bad game and is worth it at it’s price of £16.99 for the standard edition. It just needs improvement in some areas.

Lootbound is one of the best indie games of 2026 that excels in every aspect. The combat is tactical and satisfying. The atmosphere and art direction are captivating and represent dark fantasy extremely well. The gameplay loop is rewarding, and progression is well-balanced. The only thing holding it back is its lack of story and narrative support. Every run has a sense of purpose and feels different thanks to the RPG nature. Lootbound easily stands out as one of the best roguelite and turn-based games in recent memory.
