Across the Obelisk

A four-player co-op deckbuilder that solves the genre's most obvious gap — playing Slay the Spire-style card combat as an actual shared party instead of a shared seed — and then spends the years after its Paradox acquisition undermining that achievement with DLC pricing its own community calls predatory.

Echoes of Aincrad

A Sword Art Online action RPG that finally lets you build a hero of your own inside Aincrad, with tight Souls-inflected combat and a genuinely sharp partner-synergy system — undercut by a linear, quest-marker world and a $69.99 asking price that assumes you'll buy back in for the DLC.

Forager

The gather-craft-expand loop that launched a hundred imitators, and one of the most effective opening hours in any game of its type. It's also been abandoned since 2020 with a promised multiplayer mode that never arrived — and it still sells at full price.

Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree

A gorgeous Castlevania-meets-Dark-Souls action RPG whose strong opening hours give way, by a large share of its own reviewers' account, to boss reuse and repetitive combat -- and whose launch was briefly derailed by a real, since-resolved controversy over an overreaching EULA.

MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls

Arc System Works built a 4v4 Marvel tag-team fighter that reviewers who can actually run it are calling one of the best fighting games in years. Sony built the PC release around it, and that release blocks Linux and Steam Deck outright, requires a PSN account, and runs multiple redundant background services that are still eating performance a week after launch.

Palia

A free-to-play cozy MMO that survived its own studio nearly collapsing under it — Singularity 6 laid off around 40% of its staff across 2023 and 2024 before Daybreak Game Company bought the studio outright, and the game that emerged is still being patched roughly every three to four weeks in 2026. What it hasn't fixed is a monetisation model that increasingly charges real money to actually use rewards you already earned by playing.

Starfield

The clearest case in this library of a Steam score that has become a historical document — a Mixed badge earned in 2023 sitting on top of a game that, three years and a flight update later, its current players mostly recommend.

Techtonica

A factory-automation game that puts the camera underground and gives you a gun that deletes stone, so verticality and terrain destruction do real design work instead of being a setting. The idea is stronger than the execution — a convoluted tech tree, a frame rate that sags under a big base, and a developer that's gone quiet since the 1.0 launch hold it back.

The Adventure Pals

Massive Monster's debut -- a Flash-game-turned-commercial platformer about a boy, his pet rock and a giraffe with a helicopter tongue -- is Very Positive on Steam, but the studio's own next game, Cult of the Lamb, became the actual hit; eight years of reviews explain the gap with one word repeated more than any other: repetitive.

The Ascent

One of the most beautiful cyberpunk worlds ever built, wrapped around bugs that delete your save — reported in 2021, still reported in 2026, with an announcement feed containing five years of sales and no patch notes.

Throne and Liberty

NC's weapon-swap MMORPG delivers the best guild siege in the genre right now and asks a real question about what its Auction House and $50 Character Boost actually buy. Reviewed with The Frozen Divide: Nix (level cap 60) live and Update 4.3.0's Battlegrounds season running.

Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade

A gorgeous Edo-period fantasy action RPG with three distinct heroes and fluid combat, whose shallow run variation draws real roguelite complaints -- and whose launch was upended a week in when its publisher abandoned the project, not the small developer some angry reviews initially blamed.
