I can’t believe this game was made by two people only. The atmosphere, the gameplay, and the graphics were all charming and fantastic. You owe it to yourself to play this wonderful game, especially since it is at such an affordable price.

Tetra Cube
Tetra Cube is a solo project by DDal, an Illustrator, known for art from gacha game Girls' Frontline. With small budget and zero marketing, Tetra Cube gets instantly into a pile of Steam games with near zero discoverability on the release day, but let it not deceive you.
So what is Tetra Cube? Basically, if you played Into the Breach and Invisible Inc, the game will give you those feels, except on a much smaller scale since the game isn’t that complex. It’s fast paced, fun, small puzzle battles in 8x8 tiles or 8x4 tile rooms, and you control only 2 characters + 1 hacked robot of your choice. You dungeon crawl through floors, manage your resources, upgrades, equipment and try to win battles without taking any damage if possible. Full run from start till the end is around ~2-3 hours. Music is probably one of my favorite things in Tetra Cube. And surprisingly, plenty of different tracks for such a small project.

Even though the price is deceptively low, this game received a lot of effort. It takes several hours to play until the ending, without feeling repetitive or watered down.
The strategic part is easy to understand, and feels fair and fun to play. Different equipment requires different strategies, which makes it fun to fight for another ending. Unlike many rouge-somethings this game follows the plot and doesn’t revolve around randomness and near infinite replays, finding good balance between procedural crawling parts, and story progression.

DNA Farm
Very interesting game, the description says it all, clearly…but it runs well and feels fun! I keep saying it in these reviews, but I mean it…the price is a little too steep..this could be fun for a lot of people but…if they won’t spend 11 bucks, maybe the won’t see how good it is, anyways..just my thoughts. Not a bad game at all!

Element TD
I love tower defense, and this game is solid. I played this back when it was a custom map and enjoyed it then; I think this version is better. There is room for improvement / enhancements and maybe we’ll see that in an update or sequel but if you dig TD, this game (that costs less than a latte) will do you right. My only real beef is that you can’t pause the game once it’s begun; that adds some excitement but is not what I’m personally looking for in this type of game (I like a more relaxed strategy experience), however it’s not overwhelming so no trouble.

Pros:
-Same feeling as the old WC3 and Dota2 custom maps,
-Nice design
-The sounds provide a good atmosphere to the game
-Good optimisation
-Runs on the crappiest machines too
Cons: Well there are a couple, unfortunately…
-Can’t see the range of towers before placing them
-Can’t target creeps with the towers manually
-Need to go into the specific towers description to check what I need to build it. In the custom games, it was already done that moving the cursor over an element it highlights what it will make buildable.

Dead Man’s Draw
This is very close. Another game I wish I could give a neutral rating.
Its a push your luck card drawing game with each suit triggering a different mechanism and along with your traits you can combine them in to more or less devestating attacks in order to collect cards that bolster your score.
Contrary to some of the reviews Ive seen nothing to suggest that the AI is cheating, it does pull off some last minute nasty moves at times but keeping my cool I can think back to the many times I have done the same thing. How much this actually matters is debateable, if the game makes you feel like it is cheating then whether it is or it isnt, the frustration is always real. I think this will be the biggest sticking point for most people, at first it may not be quite so apparent but as things go on you will see through to the luck component of the game increasingly easily and more and more you will feel robbed by complete chance regardless of how well youve played a hand.

I really enjoyed this game, the rules are really simple to pick up, it’s fun to play, the characters are memorable and consistent in ‘who they are’ with the trait combos they use. The AI is really good and not overly cheaty, there were a couple of times I thought you wouldn’t keep drawing like that or you’d have had to have known that card was there to have carried on or to have played that card, but this didn’t happen often enough to make it a concern. It is incredibly fair the majority of the time.
