Mina is a beautiful, lovingly crafted paen to the classic GBC Zelda games, that is entirely ruined by the stupid "hard" mechanics and terrible "clever" puzzles. Yahtzee has already said everything needed about the confusing "hints", but I want to point out how crazy it is that enemies telegraph attacks for almost a second, but it takes over a half second to use the dodge mechanic, so you have to make a very tight window and then wait for a not-tight window while you're not able to usefully control your character and just waiting to see if you managed to press the button fast enough. Every bit of feedback that the game gives you is just infuriatingly *slow*, so you're never quite certain if you're doing it right at all. It's got so much going for it in it's combat system, but the bad choices ultimately outweigh the good. it's just bad, and ever the more frustratingly so because there's so much good that's apparent.

Can't say I can recommend Apex Legends on Steam now that I can't play it on my Steam Deck.

Cute and sweet idle game that has me seriously hooked.

Very similar in theme and gameplay to Rimworld, in a lot of good ways

It's got cool characters, sick beats, and a fun and challenging rhythm game mechanic without being too punishing.

Another quiet, simple masterpiece from Maciej Targoni. If you like puzzles that tickle your brain without twisting it into knots, feelings of zen, or simply quiet relaxing game, this is for you.

It's a cute sweet arcadey experience of failing with your friends.

This is a great game, but will soon become unplayable for me and many others due to a requirement to link a PSN account. I'm not happy. You shouldn't be happy either. Way to go, Sony.

Original review below:

It's a wild and wacky trip through far future satire of a military complex run wild. But mostly it's about shooting bugs and evil cyborgs for Democracy!

Play with 4 people, coordinating your airstrikes and other strategems to fight waves of enemies in objective-based gameplay. Tons of fun, either for a quick mission or long chain.

Simple but deep puzzles in a gorgeous pixel world.

More Train Valley than Transport Tycoon, Railgrade has me hooked. It's a puzzle game more than management sim, sure, but it scratches a lot of the same itches that deeper train games do, but most importantly it scratches the production-chain itches like Anno games. Would highly recommend
