Adventure (2083 programs)
Pros: Nostalgic platforming. Smooth controls. Colorful, cozy environments.
Cons: Limited challenge for veterans. Repetitive gameplay.
Pros: Evocative setting with many new locations. Traditional artwork brings dark fantasy world to life. Interesting two-tiered plot structure. Complex but accessible magic system.
Cons: Voice acting feels out of place. Animation doesn't look as good as hand-drawn settings. Plot could use further development. Sluggish character movement.
Pros: Colorful setting is more visually stimulating than many games in the genre. A relatively large game world to explore for this type of game. Manages to create a sufficiently tense atmosphere. Simple controls should be suitable for most skill levels.
Cons: Does not save progress, meaning players who die must start from the beginning.
Pros: High quality narrative, graphics and sound design. Full audio remaster and added developer's commentary. Deep, engaging mystery that draws players in. Runs on machines with modest specs.
Cons: Non-hardcore fans who played the original won't find much appeal. Very little gameplay. Game is cheaper on other platforms. Little to no replay value.
Pros: In-depth unit customisation. Classic turn-based play.
Cons: Perspective doesn't show scale well. Dated sci-fi aesthetic.
Pros: Plenty of fresh features. Improved graphics. Option to play non-3D. Dynamic environments.
Cons: Feels very ‘90s despite the amazing graphics. Real-time 3D could make you dizzy. Improper display settings could lead to choppy gameplay. The day-night cycle seems pointless.
Pros: Creepy PSX-style graphics. No jumpscares. Simple controls.
Cons: Not much gameplay involved. Quite short.
Pros: Excellent, atmospheric setting. Hidden object sections are well crafted. Includes 50 different locations. Collector's Edition includes a bonus chapter.
Cons: Plot elements are fairly limited. Linear gameplay limits re-playability. Back-tracking sections can be frustrating. Some hidden object scenes are re-used.
Pros: Solid gameplay. Fast action.
Cons: Becomes repetitive. Lacklustre innovation.
Pros: The first time a Shelter game contained a linear story. Different locations from Shelter 1 & 2. The playable character has new abilities and new senses. Cycle through days and nights as you play.
Cons: Camera controls are sluggish and broken. Mouse sensitivity is slow and buggy. The artistic graphics look like they were lazily designed. Textures and shapes are hard to make out at night.
Pros: Challenging space adventure. Beautiful 2D game environment. Enhanced game quality sequel of 60 Seconds! Reatomized. Retains gameplay many players loved.
Cons: Some outcomes appear too random.
Pros: Fast-paced platform play. Fun soundtrack.
Cons: Dated graphics. Relatively short play time.
Pros: Great story. Easy controls.
Cons: Short playthrough.
Pros: Solid storyline. Great visuals. Simple controls.
