I admire you trying to sneak a dungeon crawler in
There ought to be more grimdark dungeon crawlers, the format is perfect for dark themes, gore and all that fun stuff. In most cases they're for weeaboos or just generic and bland fantasy.

I also forgot this on my edgy picks list:

Also this one caught my eye in particular. Never touched either of 'em but I've heard nothing but praise and adulation with a hint of regret for what-could-have-been with 2. What's the Codexian Consensus?

Best modern shooter, lightning-fast movement with wallrunning and the best grapplehook implementation in gaming history (with enough practice you can achieve such speeds THE FUCKING HIT REGISTRATION STOPS WORKING ON YOU BECAUSE OF HOW FAST YOU GO. YOU CAN BUNNY HOP SO FAST YOU LITERALLY BECOME INVULNERABLE). The player numbers are very low sadly, but it also has a short but incredibly good SP campaign that's alone worth the price.

But the steam version still requires you to install origin so it's easier just to get it there, especially considering it goes cheaper on origin

I should also add the Bloodstained is 60% for the first time


I bought it in the last sale and stopped halfway through. It doesn't do anything novel really, it's an adequate Metroidvania. Right after it I started with Supraland and found it to have more meat despite some jank.

I have no idea what to think about this game. I played the demo and didn't understand anything about the story. It's like Hyper Light Drifter on some really heavy drugs. It also has only 54 reviews.


But man, this has some amazing music. The best shit I heard in a game for a while. Voted for this in the category. Wasn't able to find combat music on Youtube though.

Insert Title Here RPG Wokedex Codex Year of the Donut Codex+ Now Streaming! Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Since i finished Bound by Flame by Spiders recently, i decided to buy their earlier Faery - Legends of Avalon that i do not see coming on GOG any time soon (fortunately it was easy to remove Steam's DRM):


Tags include "turn-based" which was a bit unexpected.

Also one of the reviews says that it has no voice acting while the download seems to be just ~725MB. I guess this is their lowest budget game yet (that i've played) so there is Maximum Jank ahead.

Well, whenever i decide to play it that is. For now it goes on the pile.

Soo, did you think that after the mediocre Mighty Number 9 there wouldn't be more garbain-bin MMX rip-offs? Think again!

Here's an "exciting" gameplay video to show all of its awfulness! At least it doesn't have shitty voice-acting.

Buy this cyberpunk shooter with C&C, don't ask any questions, just buy it and play it. There is no time to explain.



Bought this yesterday and played through the first level. Very loveable mix of Doom, Hexen and Arx, so it's a keeper. Love the atmo and GZDOOM engine still rocks.

Good game, but wait for a sale on GOG.

cursed, what do you mean it doesn't load? It's Hatred and it's very cheap.
idk, maybe it is banned in my region.
What happens if you click this link?
