HYKE: Northern Light(s)70
May 1, 2026
Hyke: Northern Lights is an engaging 2D RPG about a witch searching for her mother. While gameplay can feel repetitive at times, the visually stunning environments and the ability to switch between 7 distinct witches make this little RPG one worth exploring.

Dragon Quest Smash/Grow70
May 1, 2026
Dragon Quest Smash/Grow is a worthy idle RPG with some engaging elements. But its initial promise of exciting Survivors-like action quickly falls apart. However, if you approach it from the perspective of it being a regular growth-focused casual RPG with plenty of more hardcore elements, you'll have fun. And both the visuals and audio have that familiar, nostalgia-infused Dragon Quest flavour.

KASSO GAIDEN: Escape from the Skaterverse70
Apr 9, 2026
Kasso Gaiden doesn't feel like it is unique enough to stand out, but it's an interesting little game. I do wish the sound effects were mutable, as they sort of take away from the experience.

Subnautica: Below Zero80
Mar 30, 2026
Subnautica is a thrilling survival game set on a watery alien planet. With engaging survival combat and a beautiful world to explore, the only thing bringing this mobile port down is the autosave freeze issue.

This Tomb Raider mobile port features all the action and suspense it's known for, combined with an intuitive touch control system.

RAGE70
Feb 20, 2026
A feast for the eyes, RAGE doesn't make the most of its fun arcade action as it's missing some standard features.

Quantum Legacy50
Feb 19, 2026
A beautiful on-rails shooter that delivers furious deep space combat on a presentational front. Sadly, its grasp for strategic action doesn't quite work and those underlying mechanics simply can't support its repetitive framework.

Ninja Throw70
Feb 18, 2026
A solid puzzler which is occasionally hampered by control issues and an over-reliance on trial and error gameplay.

Payback270
Feb 18, 2026
In spite of its lack of coherency, Payback 2 HD is still an immensely entertaining experience.
