LGBTQ – Play Critically

Frogsong Review

I am uncertain if Frogsong is successful in its queer storytelling, but I appreciate its effort.

Unsighted’s time limiting mechanics make me feel for its characters in ways that pushes it towards the top tiers of greatness.

Kena: Bridge of Spirits has beautiful animation and art design but is too difficult to be a fun videogame.

Unpacking’s activity is removing things from boxes. The game is understanding what those things tell me about the unseen protagonist.

Hades is the perfect genre entrypoint for newcomers and a satisfying experience for veterans.

A mind-imploding ending can’t salvage Pixel Puzzle Makeout League’s easy puzzles and bad romantic relationships.

Ikenfell is a fearless, surprising, and charming indie RPG.

Murder by Numbers pulls double-duty as an entry point for nonogram novices and a charming narrative-driven detective videogame.
