Fun with friends. That may be more valuable than anything else.

ExoCross is a fun and responsive arcade racer with simple controls, and complex system interactions that make vehicle handling consistently fun and interesting. As an arcade racer, it has an effective catch-up mechanic where vehicles in the back of the pack can draft to generate "boost" at an increased rate. This keeps the pack together, keeps the racing interesting, and doesn't out-class skilled play.

Strange Horticulture is tight and sweet. It's puzzles have a rhythm that last long enough to be rewarding, but not tedious. After about 10 (casual) hours, it feels like I'm a stone's throw from the game's climax, and it looks like I'm set up to make some interesting choices with regard to the final outcome. I can't wait!

Fantastic DLC. Fun Racing.
I've played for a few hours, and the levels are well designed, and the racing AI is fun to play against.
I haven't had any problem with placing well, at least not after I found the boost button.

Demolition Derby is a bit too easy though.

This game is beautiful, both as play and a technical experiment. More of this please.

Phantom Brigade is a tactical game that gives you plenty of interesting choices, and a lot of control over your units. The interface is unusual, but the approach of crawling forward through time is also unusual. Ultimately, it's a smooth fit, wrapped up in a high fidelity package.

This game gets it all right.

I've played the first six hours a couple of times, and the game is solid fun. Normally I wait until a game leaves Early Access, but something in my life makes me WANT THIS NOW.

Homework Remastered is tagged as VR, and it has no VR support.

Maybe it was an accident, but people online have been complaining that this game has been "accidentally" tagged as VR for almost 3 years, so that seems like deliberate malfeasance from the owners.

Otherwise, this game is great! You should totally get it.

This game is hilarious and awesome, and every stone upturned seems to reveal another gem.
The Tactical Combat is fun too.

Update -
After 3 months, this is still *THE* game I want to play. At this point, playing the game also feels like I'm participating in a global community, with people sharing stories of adventures that feel as emergent and improvised as a tabletop session. Double-Plus Good.
