Redfall
I had a good enough time with Redfall. Is it anything special? No, not really. But it's a short game with light looter shooter elements that was enjoyable to play. And, y'know what? Sometimes that's enough. Well, enough for me, that is. Clearly not enough for Microsoft not to shut down Arkane Austin.

Returnal
Fun game. I think I would've gotten frustrated if I died more, but I didn't, so it was fine. I wasn't a fan of the story, but I'd been spoiled on it, so I knew not to get invested.

Haze
I'd heard that Haze was a bad game, but I don't think that's true. It's a good bordering on mediocre game, but it's a 7th gen shooter. That's almost all of them. Haze has guns that feel good, some set pieces that are fun, and some fun gimmicks. It's worth a shot if you're looking for a FPS.

Lovely Planet
Lovely Planet was fine. It gets a bit too demanding with quick, accurate shots for my taste, and some of the mechanics (admittedly primarily the fog) I wasn't a huge fan of. Still, a neat game.

The Fall Part 2: Unbound
Honestly, this game didn't work for me at all. The puzzles were often obtuse and spread across too many screens. The plot was bland and the characters weren't compelling.

Shadow Tactics: Aiko's Choice
Aiko's Choice was enjoyable. The plot was really just there to glue together the story, but the levels were enjoyable enough. The only thing that started to grate was the game sometimes not understanding what I wanted it to do, leading to some captures or deaths.

Tinykin
I had a good time with Tinykin. The exploration was compelling, and the platforming was enjoyable. It managed to sneak in a successful emotional moment, and it didn't overstay its welcome. Definitely worth a play.

Hell Pie
I mostly liked it. It had its issues, like the skill tree trivializing most of the challenge and some issues with camera angles causing you to miss jumps (or bonk against a wall, which pretty much kills you). The tone wasn't my thing, but I didn't find that it detracted from the game. Surprisingly short, but I'm just glad they didn't pad it out, and you certainly could get more out of it if you wanted to scour the levels for collectibles.

Dread Delusion
I had a good time with Dread Delusion. The setting was imaginative and the visuals great. The variety of spells and areas meant that I was always discovering new things, even if I ended up using the agility spell for most of the game. Well worth it if you're looking for a nice casual first person RPG.

Great platforming, great music. My third time through.

Adventures of Chris
I had a good time with this. The movement was smooth enough, and the boss fights were a good mix of difficult and doable. Doubt I'll do any of the extra content, but I don't need to.

Injustice 2
I had a good time with Injustice 2. The story was a good time, even if it didn't land as well as the first one did. Honestly, it needed to kill off a few more characters. The fighting was OK, but I've never been one for fighting games, and I never really got the feeling I was getting good at the combat system. Often switching characters, while good for the story, probably didn't help that.

Escape From Mystwood Mansion
All together, I enjoyed the game, although it's certainly on the easier side of escape room games I've played. Nevertheless, it made a good use of setting and didn't have anything too obtusely hidden.

DROD 4: Gunthro and the Epic Blunder
Back when I purchased these in 2014, I had a tough time with them. I thought they were incredibly clever games, although perhaps too clever for me. Indeed going back and trying the first game was a shock, as it quickly ramped up in difficulty. DROD 4 has a much smoother curve, and it does an excellent job of being the first DROD that people play.
I had a lovely time playing DROD, and I think the atmosphere, sound, gameplay, and story work together to give the game a charm superior than the sum of its, admittedly already strong, parts.

Castle on the Coast
Fun movement. Didn't overstay its welcome. I wish there was some more challenging platforming, but it's fine.

Man of Medan
What an absolute bore of a game. It attempted horror exclusively through jump scares, and lacked both compelling characters or an interesting plot to carry it along. I now know why the game is so disliked. It isn't good.

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew
I was waiting the whole game for one of the longer missions and then, when it came, I felt like it was a slog.
Shadow Gambit was somewhat of a disappointment for me. The core gameplay was fun, but I liked the more linear spread of missions that previous games had, and it messed me up to no end how every mission the characters would be on different numbers. Just give them all fixed numbers!
Despite not really enjoying pirates as a setting, I enjoyed the magic/inquisition component to it, which made it the most compelling setting for me. Ignacia was also a great antagonist for about 3/4ths of the game until it got into the "she wants a society that's just a military state with no civilians. I would've like it better if Mordechai had realized that Marley wouldn't give up the time soul and had plotted with Ignacia, but that didn't happen.
Visiting the same islands over and over again wore me down, and in general I found it less compelling than the previous two.
