“Slots & Daggers” is apparently quite good
Everwind - If Minecraft had all the mods installed and you can build airships and build fancy machines. It improves on just about every Minecraft mechanic. Lets see if the charm is also there. I really like this one!
The Legend of Khiimori - With 2 girls I am always looking for the next best horse riding game. Cliche? Sure, but not if they ASK for it. There is no “peaceful” mod for RDR2, so this game will have to do. Big open world horse riding game set in Mongolian steppes. Plays pretty well, but even my oldest said “I can see why this is just a demo for now”.
Pure Pool Pro - I recall an old pool game when I was a kid (virtual pool?) and played hours of it. This fits the bill perfectly. Easy to pick up, hard to master. Wishlisted!
The Last Caretaker - A survival game where you are the last robot caretaker sailing a ship and gathering resources to maintain yourself, the ship and any facilities you come across. The game is beautiful, and all the mechanics work really well, but the performance needs to be tweaked. Probably the game I spent the most time on in the Next Fest.
Cairn - If PEAK is Mario Kart, then Cairn is a simulator used by F1 teams. A very tough yet super fun climbing game, with a unique and beautiful art style. Loved it. Will be playing it more!
I briefly tried this one. Definitely scratches the TMNT Shredder’s Revenge itch! Went straight to wish list and will be a day one purchase. I had lots of fun with TMNT with my son and got the DLC as well. He will love the Marvel spin on it, especially seeing that you can tag-team two heroes!
Demeo x Dungeons & Dragons: Battlemarked - If you like DnD but are always part of a group of murder hobos then this game will be perfect. It is essentially a table top DnD game constantly in combat mode. Cute, smooth graphics and loads of variety in the tactics, and the full game promises multiple full length campaigns.
