Astronomics – PC Early Access Preview

Astronomics is a top-down space mining and exploration game by Numizmatic (Light Fingers). It launched into Early Access on Steam just yesterday i.e. February 10th, 2025. Best Mining Game since Deep Rock I'm always up for a chance to check out a new space or sci-fi game. Especially if they involve mining space rocks like in Astronomics. I wasn't looking for something that felt overly complex like Elite Dangerous or EVE Online. Astronomics caught my eye for looking simple and enjoyable at my own pace. Anything that brings something close to those Stardew Valley vibes, right? Gameplay Astronomics is a casual, yet exciting adventure of asteroid mining. As an employee of Cube Corporation, you'll mine your "claim" in space by landing on space rocks passing through. Do so by gathering al...

While Waiting PC Review

While Waiting is the latest release from indie developer and publisher Optillusion (Moncage). This point-and-click narrative game depicts the unnamed male protagonist's life at various key moments. The premise intrigued me as you can let events happen passively or actively participate to make entertaining moments happen. The game is full of tongue-in-cheek humour, and heart as you relate to the main character. It even had me belly laughing at times, something a game hasn't made me do in a while. While Waiting is available now on Steam and Nintendo Switch. Life pauses for no one in While Waiting Gameplay While Waiting begins with a child-friendly and humourous version of conception and birth, which immediately sets the tone for the rest of the game. This sequence introduces the mechani...

Cat Detective Albert Wilde – PC Review

Cat Detective Albert Wilde, is the latest release from Greek-based devs beyondthosehills. Their last game was the puzzler Reky. Being a fan of the film noir genre, I had to pick Albert Wilde up and see what it was all about. If you have ever fancied playing the role of an anthropomorphic cat detective in 1930s New York, well now is your chance. "Decency and integrity are fancy words, but they never kept anybody well fed. And I've got quite an appetite" Now on PC, let's see what this "comedy noir, sci-fi mystery game that blends elements of a walking simulator and interactive novel" is like. Gameplay At its core, Cat Detective Albert Wilde is a simple point-and-click adventure game that intertwines narrative investigation with a tiny bit of puzzle-solving. Playing the role of Alb...

Explore floating islands alone or with up to seven other friends as you glide between them collecting resources and secrets. Aloft is currently only available as Early Access on PC via Steam. Aloft Brings Gliding Galore Survival games come in varying degrees of complexity and difficulty. Many of them still fall into the same patterns of gameplay. I'm usually looking for something that sets a survival game apart, and the setting for Aloft certainly caught my attention. The simple mechanic of having biomes/areas separated by sky in particular. I think the last survival game I've played that was laid out this way would have been when I...
