A merciless retro arcade platformer where a Viking fights through brutally tough levels with precise jumps and spear throws. Every hit counts, and only those who learn the patterns will progress.

Titan Souls

Challenging difficulty

A minimalist boss-rush adventure where you have a single arrow and one hit point. Each titan is a puzzle of timing, positioning and trial and error, set in a quiet pixel-art world.

Momodora III

Fantasy setting

A classic 2D pixel-art action platformer where you play the priestess Momo through mostly linear levels, collecting items and uncovering secrets. It relies on quick dodging and tough boss fights, and you don't need to know the earlier games.

An action-platformer where you play Ardeshir, returning home to find his island shrouded in mist, fighting with fire and steel to uncover what happened to his people.

MO:Astray

Puzzles and brain teasers

A pixel-art platformer where you guide the slime-like MO through hazardous levels full of traps and strange enemies. Precise jumping and the character's special abilities drive the challenge.

Severance: Blade of Darkness

Challenging difficulty

A brutal third-person swordfighting game where you play a Knight, Barbarian, Dwarf or Amazon and carve through enemies with heavy combos and gory, weighty combat on the hunt for a Necromancer. Its demanding, physical combat and grim dark-fantasy mood made it a cult classic.

Tomb Raider

Puzzles and brain teasers

The classic that made Lara Croft famous: precise grid-based jumping and climbing through vast, lonely tombs, mixed with lever puzzles and gunfights against wild animals and mythical creatures. The quiet, eerie atmosphere of ancient ruins defines the experience.
