29.4.2024
Microsoft is still working hard to court indie games. The company showed off a bunch of them, old and new, during its 2024 ID@Xbox showcase, though once again Hollow Knight: Silksong wasn’t among them. In addition to a small tease for upcoming Palworld creatures, we also got our first look at some...
This Indie Game Captures The Oddly Beautiful Liminality Of Pools
29.4.2024
For a lot of people, indie game POOLS will lean into horror territory. While the walking simulator doesn’t have any monsters chasing you down, the liminal design of its environment is very capable of unsettling the player. Long, interconnected rooms of tiling and oddly-shaped bodies of water...

This Horror Dating Sim Sets A Hot New Standard
23.4.2024
When Sucker for Love: First Date was released in 2022, its blend of cosmic horror vibes with dating sim mechanics made it a cult hit. But it’s essentially one big joke about how funny it would be to make Cthulu into a busty babe that you could kiss as long as you did progressively more horrific...

Recenze hry Harold Halibut. Pohledná indie adventura z plastelíny s trochu vyčpělým příběhem
16.4.2024
Dlouhých 10 let se připravovala nezávislá adventura od malého studia Slow Bros. Unikátní způsob animace a tím vyšperkovaný vizuál je zde bohužel doplněn nezajímavým a až nudným obsahem. Jako by tvůrci během vývoje několikrát otočili kormidlem a do poslední chvíle nevěděli, jakou hru chtějí
RECENZE: Skvělé Balatro je žolík v letošním balíčku indie her
16.4.2024
Pokerové Balatro nás překvapilo svou chytlavostí. Relativně nenápadná indie hra vzala základ z pokeru a vystavěla na něm neuvěřitelně zábavnou studnici nápadů v žánru roguelite. Pro karetní maniaky je to hra jako stvořená
