Moon Corona

Moon Corona is an Early Access single-player RPG that combines deckbuilding, story-driven choices, exploration, and movement-focused tactical combat. Its strongest appeal is build experimentation: hundreds of cards, class-exclusive options, universal combo cards, and more than 40 advanced classes support varied playstyles. Player feedback describes satisfying exploration, flexible builds, and a compelling card-and-Souls-like hybrid, but also reports uneven class balance, punishing Shadow Incursion scaling, unclear card and material guidance, technical issues, and unfinished areas. Recent updates confirmed balance, guide, sprint, optimization, and content changes, so Moon Corona is promising for patient players who enjoy experimentation and rough-edged Early Access systems, while cautious buyers may prefer to wait for further balancing.

Leafy Corner

Leafy Corner is a low-pressure plant shop simulation built around growing, caring for, selling, and decorating with real-life houseplants. Its relaxing pace, 100+ plants, variegations, customer requests, and shop customization make it a strong fit for plant lovers and cozy-game players. Player reviews are overwhelmingly positive, praising the soothing presentation and approachable loop, while recurring criticisms focus on repetitive watering, limited shop space, and a relatively short endgame.

Machine Party

Machine Party is a violent multiplayer party-game collection for 2-4 players, built around short, lethal challenges, chaotic interference, and dark humor. It is easiest to recommend to groups of friends who want roughly an hour or two of laughter and competition, especially with four players. Player feedback is strongly positive overall, praising the creative minigames, grotesque presentation, music, and social chaos. The main drawbacks are limited variety, fixed minigame order, no matchmaking or server browser, and occasional bugs or connection issues. Recent update notes confirm a hotfix and ongoing work on additional gameplay and graphics reports, but longer-term content plans remain uncertain.

Case Solved: The London Files

Case Solved: The London Files is a cosy noir deduction game built around pure logic puzzles. It suits players who want a calm but thoughtful mystery, with hand-drawn presentation, jazz mood, and cases that get harder as they go. Reviews are broadly positive, with praise for the logic-first design, atmosphere, and extra secret cases, while some players note a short main campaign and a few launch issues in later cases and localization.

Below, Rusted Gods

Below, Rusted Gods is a slow-burn horror adventure about acting as a remote operator for an expedition descending into something ancient and unknown. It looks like a good fit for players who want atmospheric storytelling, light management pressure, and multiple endings rather than fast action. Reviews describe it as short, tense, and memorable, with strong presentation, though some players report puzzle friction, performance issues, and a desire for clearer payoff on replay.

Truck-kun is Supporting Me from Another World?!

Truck-kun is Supporting Me from Another World?! is a short, chaotic arcade driving game that blends anime parody, delivery runs, and objective chasing into a compact campaign. The store page and player reviews point to a game that is easy to pick up, funny, and energetic, with a Crazy Taxi-like loop and a strong isekai-comedy hook. Review sentiment is Very Positive, but many players also describe it as shallow, repetitive, and short for the price, so it fits best for players who want a brief, silly, one-more-run experience rather than deep progression or long-term challenge.

Ugoku Sushi Bar

Ugoku Sushi Bar is a cozy sushi management sim about preparing orders, unlocking recipes, and serving recurring customers in a relaxed conveyor-belt setting. It fits players who want low-stress progression, lots of recipe variety, and a calm loop with light challenge. Reviews are very positive overall, but player feedback also points to launch bugs and a loop that can feel repetitive once the early unlocks slow down. Recent updates have already targeted tutorial, plate, and save issues, which improves the case for playing now if you are comfortable with a still-stabilizing release.

Osta

Osta is a militaria collecting simulator focused on hunting for items through metal detecting, auctions, and markets, then restoring and displaying them at home. Player feedback points to a relaxing, niche collector loop with strong novelty and content breadth, but also frequent complaints about clunky controls, thin guidance, and early-stage roughness. It looks most appealing to players who enjoy patient collecting and tinkering rather than polished progression or detailed simulation depth.

Bills Must Be Paid

Bills Must Be Paid is a short active incremental game about smashing piggy banks, paying bills, and upgrading your hand between runs. The store page frames it as a stamina-limited loop with perks, legacy upgrades, random loot, and multiple hammers, while player reviews describe it as satisfying, addictive, and easy to finish in a few hours. It looks like a strong fit for players who want a compact, replayable progression game with light strategy and a clear endpoint, but not for anyone expecting long-term content or deep run variety.

Shards of Order

Shards of Order is a grim dark fantasy RPG with card-based combat, shared-deck party building, and a time-counter battle system that replaces standard turns and mana. Player reviews describe it as a story-driven deckbuilder with strong atmosphere, flexible builds, and meaningful choices, while also noting bugs, UI friction, translation issues, and some late-game balance spikes. It looks most appealing to players who want a narrative RPG with deckbuilding depth and do not mind some rough edges.

Sir, We Have an Orc Problem

Sir, We Have an Orc Problem is a short incremental tower defense game built around huge orc waves, upgrade-driven runs, and physics-heavy crowd chaos. Player reviews are very positive overall, but the recurring tradeoff is clear: it is fun and strategic, yet short and sometimes grindy, with several players asking for more maps, towers, and replayable modes. The current evidence suggests it is worth playing if you want a compact defense game with strong novelty and do not mind a limited campaign.

Sker Ritual

Sker Ritual is a co-op horror horde shooter built around round-based survival, weapon upgrades, and map objectives. It is a fit for players who like wave defense, solo-or-squad play, and a zombies-style FPS loop, but the evidence also points to clunky handling, balance issues, and unreliable multiplayer for some players.
