    Alexey Testov and the Dark, Emotional Roots of INMOST

    Games bearing player discretion warnings for heavy themes rarely arrive in the form of bite-sized pixel art. But INMOST, the puzzle platformer from Hidden Layer Games, delivers a quiet, agonizing gut punch by weaving together the tragic lives of a knight, a child, and a wanderer.

    Regions of Ruin: Runegate: Will you clock in?

    We’re not sure if we’re a hero or just a middle manager with a sword. In Regions of Ruin: Runegate, you’re basically bleeding food to keep a settlement alive. It sometimes feel as exhausting as it is ambitious. It’s a sprawling loop of side-scrolling combat and town management that somehow makes “grinding for apples” feel…

    Grind Survivors: Hell on Earth, Re-Rolled

    We’ve reached a point where “survivor-likes” are everywhere, usually sporting the same retro pixel-art look to save on performance. But Grind Survivors, the debut original IP from the Ukrainian team at Pushka Studios, takes a different path. Dropping the pixels for Unreal Engine, they’ve built a dark, high-fidelity bullet-hell that feels more like an ARPG…
