Unravel
On average, Unravel is pleasantly distracting.
Telling Lies
Telling Lies makes me wonder if Her Story might have been a once-in-a-lifetime game.
Stardew Valley
I kept coming back to Stardew Valley, but I found myself constantly wondering if it was worth the time investment.
The Witness
I think The Witness is the most I’ve ever been absorbed by a game that I didn’t find particularly entertaining.
Among the Sleep
While certainly well-intentioned, Among the Sleep doesn’t do enough to stand out from its incredibly crowded genre.
Ninja Gaiden Sigma
No matter which version you play, Ninja Gaiden is an occasionally exciting, more-than-occasionally tiresome monument to gaming’s adolescent years.
Dead Cells
Dead Cells is a perfectly well-made game that’s just not particularly interesting.
Celeste
I underestimated how exemplary the gameplay in Celeste would turn out to be.
Resident Evil 3
The remake of Resident Evil 3 is always being pulled in two different directions.
Subnautica
Subnautica rises not only above the stereotypes of survival games, but above all other expectations.
