Simple, relaxing and oddly addictive. There's only one map and limited replayability, but it's a charming game that's well worth a look if you want to chill out.

Fun, grind-heavy loop with solid progression, but mid to late game gets messy. Droids and clutter hurt visibility and QoL. Worth it if you like the grind, but check gameplay first and wait for a sale.

Decent ideas but poor execution. Monkey automation sounds great but ends up being constant micromanagement. Clunky combat, weak QoL and bugs drag it down. Not worth full price, wait for a deep sale.

An interesting, unique experience with a strong atmosphere, but it feels empty and lacks depth. Slow-paced and not for everyone. Worth a look on sale if you enjoy S.T.A.L.K.E.R atmospheres.

An okay survival crafter with some fun ideas, but rough around the edges. Lacks QoL, weak progression, and doesn’t stack up to others in the genre. Wait for a deep sale.

A solid Pokémon-style game with charm and plenty to do. Combat and progression feel good, though some systems are a bit rough. Great pick if you like monster collecting.

A lovely, story-driven experience with strong cultural focus and charm. Not for everyone, but great if you want something relaxed. Slightly pricey for what it is, so wait for a sale.

Only worth it for the multiplayer, which is still fun and active. The campaign is better played in Legendary Edition. Rough PC port with bugs and no controller support, so wait for a sale.

An all-time classic, but the PC port is rough. Frequent crashes and tweaks needed just to run it properly. Brilliant game, poor optimisation – buy it in a bundle, not on its own.

A charming, cosy survival crafter that’s easy to get into and great for relaxing. Not super deep, but that simplicity works in its favour. Best picked up on sale.
