“Slay the Princess - The Pristine Cut’s gorgeous presentation elevates already impressive writing that does an excellent job keeping players coming back for more routes, hoping to find them all.”

“Neon Blood’s gorgeous presentation hides its lackluster combat and exploration. Its solid story lacks the length and details to maximize its setup and worldbuilding.”

“The Bridge Curse 2: The Extrication tells a satisfyingly spooky tale with an Eastern spin filled with satisfying puzzles and some wonderfully handled atmospheric encounters with the supernatural.”

“Bloomtown: A Different Story may wear its inspirations out in the open but it still manages to pull itself together to be its own game thanks to some impressive character writing and solid gameplay.”

“White Day 2: The Flower That Tells Lies - Complete Edition has some wonderfully hard puzzles and great atmosphere but poor performance, AI, and other issues let down any potential this sequel had.”

“Kingdom Hearts Integrum Masterpiece brings together the wonderful action RPG collection in an ultimate collection that any Steam user should aim for if they’ve yet to touch it on any other platform.”

“Neptunia Game Maker R:Evolution sees the return of Older Neptune and the hilarious fourth wall breaking humor and cast that fans have come to love but fails to deliver satisfying gameplay.”

“Sucker for Love: Date to Die For features expanded gameplay and emphasizes horror but limits routes as a result, instead focusing on providing a strongly written and unique take on love.”

“KonoSuba: Love For These Clothes Of Desire! has some annoying elements but will please any fan of the franchise thanks to its unique approach to writing the characters and heavy fanservice.”

“Anonymous;Code delivers a grand sci-fi tale that will keep players engaged throughout thanks to stellar writing and concepts but fumbles a little with characterization and mechanics.”

“WitchSpring R is a charming RPG with solid gameplay and a wonderful cast, serving as a great reboot looking to draw in new fans and will delight those that have played the originals.”

“MythForce may have a great sense of aesthetic but the roguelike it is designed around is as basic and uninspiring as they come, becoming a quickly repetitive grindfest with little payoff.”

“Cooking up monsters in Monster Menu: The Scavenger's Cookbook is a delight but simple gameplay and generic dungeons prevent this unique SRPG from making the most of its potential.”

“Little Witch Nobeta’s charming character designs belies a dark world that the simple but enjoyable story is set against all while offering entertaining fast-paced spell-shooting combat.”

“Potionomics combines management sim, crafting, and deck building together to create a fine game that oozes with charm but is far stricter than it appears.”

“There is plenty of untapped potential in Dusk Diver 2 but poor gameplay choices and badly paced overarching story limit what the improved combat and charming cast have to offer.”

“Fallen Legion: Rise to Glory / Fallen Legion Revenants offers solid combat and nice presentation but lack of a well told story holds this collection back from being great RPGs.”

“Spidersaurs may be short and lack content outside of story mode but its colorful cartoon stylings and solid run and gun gameplay make it a great twist on the classic genre.”

“Disgaea 6 Complete’s performance improvements are significant alongside including all previous DLC but changes little from the original’s various flaws.”

“Seven Pirates H may not be a deep or challenging RPG but its unabashed approach to fanservice and great sense of humor make it a fun time best enjoyed in smaller bursts.”
