Absolutely wild game that will make you yell about Milk.

Ghost Trick is the kind of puzzle game that will have you cursing and pulling at your hair but you keep coming back for more. Once you find the solutions, it feels painfully simple and it's addictive. The gameplay loop is fun and new mechanics seem to be introduced at a comfortable pace.

The story is intriguing and the cast of characters is fantastic! I heartily recommend.

Sticky Business is an amazingly cute and cosy game. While I was able to complete the game rather quickly, I enjoyed the process of making new stickers and managing my little shop.

I was sceptical after seeing the game's development on TikTok but I was pleasantly surprised at how much character and life this little game has.

Planet Zoo is one of those unsung heroes of the cosy game/tycoon game overlap. It has something for everyone!

The information provided in the Zoopedia is fabulous, allowing the most casual animal enthusiast to learn about their favourite species. Often in this style of game, conservation can feel overbearing but it's integrated seamlessly into the gameplay loop.

Planet Zoo is the style of game that is only enhanced by it's DLC. It can seem intimidating when you look at the price but you can often pick packs up on sale and the content they add is immensely valuable.

I played this game after originally playing Planet Coaster and this gripped me in a way the former game never did. The high-quality animal models, the intuitive building gameplay and the range from challenging to casual gameplay modes have made Planet Zoo a game I come back to time and time again.

Tyrion Cuthbert: Attorney of the Arcane is a welcome addition to a genre that has been dominated by one franchise for a long time. It's unapologetic in its inspiration from the Ace Attorney games but still manages to produce a wide cast of memorable characters and provide a unique way to look at a murder mystery.

It suffers many of the pitfalls of an Ace Attorney game, where you're left wandering aimlessly until you trigger the right dialogue prompt but that is more a critique of the genre as opposed to the game itself.

Somehow, TC:AotA manages to fall into the same 'third case syndrome' trap that its predecessor has but other than that, the cases feel strong and the pacing feels comfortable.

If you are looking for a good investigation/murder mystery game to fill the time between AA releases, Tyrion Cuthbert is a fine game that combines the fantastical wonder of DND with the nitty gritty of a murder mystery.

The game does deal with some dark topics, as is traditional with this genre of games but I feel that all and all it's a worthy addition to the genre and appears to have a lot of support from the developers who are consistently working to improve the game.
