Creatures of Aether
It’s a free game so try it for yourself. I wouldn’t recommend it otherwise.
The game is based on Triple Triad, a Final Fantasy mini card game. It expands on the idea in many, many directions, most of which aren’t as well planned as the original. The game has excellent sprite art and music but there’s a serious lack of game modes, and the ones that do exist don’t work.
Paying players do have an advantage as they can power up cards and get new cards faster than non-paying players. There are other gameplay modes that are fair for both players, however.

Have you ever ACTUALLY tried to play Triple Triad? Triple Triad is kinda ass. Creatures of Aether is absolutely fantastic compared to it, though! The biggest boon is that its 4x4 rather than 3x3, but the developers care about player feedback when cards are busted, and will change it if need be. Recently they made unlocking all the cards can be done in a straightforward way. Gameplay is easy to understand but has a good amount of depth to it.
“How P2W is this game?” One thing about the game that isn’t great is that it seem P2W. Players you encounter who are running decks with higher leveled cards than you will feel like a brickwall. Don’t let that discourage you! You can beat people whos decks are higher level, it just takes time to learn the ins and outs of the gameplay. If you’re in the middle tier of ladder (~5000 medals) you will probably encounter a lot of Lv1-2, with maybe a few Lv3s. Once you get to about 7000+ you will start hitting the beefier stuff. But by then, you probably have developed enough skills to take them down, no matter the level.

What is this game about?
Pleasantly surprised with this one. Considering its size, it packs a solid punch.
So, the gameplay:
You are a hero that is tasked to overcome evil. You go unto linear missions each consisting of a few encounters. In those encounters you fight several enemies with special abilities that form a sort of puzzle of deciding who to prioritizes first.

Glitch War
Glitch War is a Action, Strategy, video game. It’s a game where you command units as you take back your world from invading monsters. You control unique characters who each have their own special attacks. There are puzzles and boss fights that you will have to make your way though. There is an open world to explore. You can go in any direction you want, find new areas, new units, and experience each area as you progress through the game. I am an indie developer and have been working on this game for just under a year now and its really shown me my passion for creating games! It has been such a blast and I hope you enjoy it as much as I have making the game!

Loop Hero
A wonderful, clever and new take on the roguelike genre w elements of other genres that would seem contrary, yet it works perfectly as a whole. There are plenty of secrets and combinations to discover, and I would suggest a new player stay far away from any spoiler guides as a big part of the fun is discovering these hidden elements on your own. Graphics are good for the style they’re trying to emulate and there’s a definite minimalist aesthetic to the game that adds much to the overall story and themes of the game itself. Honestly, after all the time I’ve spent, I really just want more of everything and hope there’s an expansion or, at least, DLC coming. I’d take a sequel too, as long as it maintains the core of the first one. This is, of course, best for people who actively already love the genres this straddles, have an open mind and love experimental games, or, at least, are not slaves to the graphical arms race of the triple A field.

7/10
Loop Hero is a very impressive and creative indie game. However, the advantages of this game cannot hide the disadvantages.
Roguelike, Management, Tactical. Of course, this game has such rich elements, you might feel very interested in the first few hours. Keep playing this game, you will find it becomes a little boring. You also need to spend a lot of time on this game or you might not pass this game easily, even from my points of view, this game maybe not worth you to spend those time.

What the heck…no mouse support in 2021?
I felt like I had stepped back in time to 1989, before every PC had a mouse. But instead, I just stepped into this dev’s awful game that you have to use a controller or the keyboard to play. Absolute garbage.

(At this time this was written) This game has several problems -easily fixed- that make it… frustrating to play. It’s a simple Hearthstone-esque card game where you win battles to purchase cards, and destroy cards to improve other ones.
First of all, this game doesn’t have a tutorial. The player is forced to fumble through the menu and eventually into the first fight. There you have slightly helpful, if a bit hard to see UI that gives you buttons to press. While there is a list of “hints”, they’re too cumbersome and time consuming to substitute an actual tutorial.
