Best Colony Sim Retro Games on PC

Sphere - Flying Cities Ok, so let me preface this review by saying that I am only giving it a thumbs up because I want the game to succeed, and it looks like the devs are listening to feedback. For example, there was a patch on day 2 to address a complaint that most people had (not a bug fix, but a mechanic change). There is a foundation for what could be a really fun game, and a different take on the genre; at least I have yet to play anything exactly like it....

Best Comedy Retro Games on PC

JankBrain Update: As of 2/7/2021, JankBrain was updated with a new core gameplay mechanic that significantly increases the fun, imo. Now, collecting the plentiful vitamins throughout each level charges up a boost meter. It only takes four vitamins to charge it to max, but the boost can be used even with only one charge. It behaves in the same way as Dumpster Bear 2’s boost, allowing you to launch yourself in any direction and also attack through enemies and damaging obstacles (apart from one-hit kill obstacles)....

Best Creature Collector Retro Games on PC

Entodrive Entodrive is a Pokemon-like adventure that I’ve grown fond of over my 3+ hours of playing. The one person development team is very active, with weekly updates indicating what was added/changed, as well as what is in store for the next update. As the community is relatively small, any feedback you have will be read and considered as part of future development, it’s a fun experience! The game is still in an alpha state and is enjoyable as-is....

Franken-Elvis at a Netherworld Funpark: Brilliant Game a true Oldschool Masterpiece. Love the Dark Humour and the UK voice acting.

Best Dark Fantasy Retro Games on PC

AMID EVIL AMID EVIL at its core is a wonderfully rendered retro throwback FPS that beckons the nostalgic memories of games such as Heretic and Hexen and Quake with gorgeous environments, beautiful weapon feel and a majestic combat encounters. However, I come to you today not focused on the weapons, the enemies or the aesthetics, but rather something truly gorgeous: the Difficulty Selection level. Most games dare not be so bold with something so seemingly obtuse as a Difficulty Selection level where it is not as simple as clicking a rather comedic naming on a menu....

Best Dating Sim Retro Games on PC

Date Night Bowling The arcade bowling is solid - I can consistently get strikes, but curving/spin isn’t particularly intuitive. Unfortunately, each character has a single phrase you have to confirm through every single time they come up to bowl. You have to play as everyone in single player before they’re available in vs. mode (whether AI or human). The minigames are fun and themed to the bowling alley. Achievements, at least at launch, appear to be not be functioning....
