How this trust score was computed
This reviewer publishes verdicts, not numbers, so trust comes from their recommend/pan calls: call accuracy (50%): when they say buy, do players end up satisfied, and when they say skip, do players agree; alignment (25%): do their recommendations sort games the way players do; and player-side (25%): on games where press and players sharply disagreed, whose side were they on. The blend is shrunk toward a neutral prior (60) so small histories can't peg the scale, and recent verdicts weigh more (2-year half-life).
Controversy record: on 3 games where press consensus and players sharply disagreed, this reviewer sided with players 1 time.

- 80Wild Blue SkiesAug 14, 2026 · Brandon Billingsley
“So, is Wild Blue Skies worth your time and attention? For the price, I’d say so. $14.99 isn’t asking that much for a Star Fox like adventure that’s available on multiple platforms. There’s plenty here to keep you coming back if this is your type of vibe. Otherwise nothing here is really going to win you over. I enjoyed Wild Blue Skies and it is a fun and addictive time. Which is all it needs to be.”

“I honestly enjoyed this game more than Hotline Miami and I think that’s due to the more refined gameplay and upgrade system. Plus, I mean…you’re a panther with a fist that can destroy walls and take out enemies with one punch! What’s not to love there?”

“Yes, it is a relatively short game and you can beat it in one day. But that short session gave way to a deep story with loveable characters, fun gameplay, and, of course, two loveable mice that I think would make for some great plushies.”

“Voidling Bound is a wonderfully delivered experience, and at $24.99 MSRP I feel it is an incredibly satisfying deal. It delivers on its promise of providing a fun, action-packed sci-fi 3rd person shooter that reinvents the monster taming genre.”

“Mina the Hollower is an amazing adventure. It pays homage to different types of horror movie monsters, and like a good horror movie, you don’t realize it’s multi-layered on the first viewing. This humble looking game embodies the spirit of the genre with its robust atmosphere, bosses, creatures, and puzzles.”

“If you’re at all ready for a new monster tamer game to take the scene by storm, here you go. The Animon are adorable, the characters look great and the story has a lot of intrigue.”

“Bubsy 4D is paw-sitively a purr-fectly claw-some game with a-mews-ing levels, hiss-terical comedy, and fur-nally shows that Bubsy isn’t a cat-astrophe of a fur-anchise and can be a claw-somely radi-claw series.”

“What starts off as a simple gathering quest quickly becomes one fantastically pleasing romp through an amazing nature wonderland.”

“From its beautiful hand-drawn animation and world, to its lovable cast of characters, to just the overall polish and love put into this game, the long wait we all had to endure to play this title was well worth it.”

“Yes, the games show their age greatly and Gex 3 is a mixed bag of feelings, but I still had fun playing them. While it’s a shame we’ll probably never see a new Gex game anytime soon, I’m just happy that LRG went out of their way to bring us this collection and fill it with tons of goodies and allow us to play these games on modern hardware.”

“The Day I Became A Bird had me stuck as a sniffling, happy mess by the time I reached its end. It isn’t trying to be more complicated than its source material, but instead allows that tale of young love to flourish and fly just like its protagonists.”

“I played many games that had crazy premises for alien invasion, but I don’t think I played any with a concept as wild and out there as ChainStaff, from developer Mommy’s Best Games (the same guys behind the seriously under-rated Serious Sam Double D XXL), and I mean that in a good way: This game is insane, wild, disgusting, beautiful, and I just couldn’t stop playing.”

“Lost and Found Co. is a gem of a hidden objects game. It goes way, way, way beyond the minimum objectives of a title in this genre and does it with acute precision while still being rounded at the corners.”
read full review ↗ - 80Collector's CoveMar 12, 2026 · Joshua Wyld
“The tagline of “cozy farming adventure on the high seas with an adorable animal companion” is enough to get me very intrigued by a game, and developer VoodooDuck had to know they had a great idea when designing Collector’s Cove, because that’s one heck of a premise. Truly, Collector’s Cove was like a pleasant bedtime tea; not overly in-your-face, and nothing too extravagant, but hits the right spot when you want exactly what it provides.”

“Demon Tides packs a bombastic punch of peak platforming power that easily justifies its approachable price tag of $24.99 MSRP. You’ll get exactly what you’re looking for if the trailer piques your interest, and if campy convos and stylish schmovement sounds like your cup of tea, developer Fabraz brews an excellent cuppa with Demon Tides.”
