Developed by Simple Games Studio, The Order of the Snake Scale is an eerie psychological thriller inspired by the legendary tales of H.P. Lovecraft. Its world depicts a dystopian future where the all-powerful NML Corporation has outlawed religion and imposed strict control over daily life. The suburbs have become a hive of crime and a refuge for addicts fleeing the big city, desperate to avoid the new law that forces the unemployed into grueling work at biomass processing factories. The story follows detective Seth Vidius, a part-biomechanical investigator assigned to a seemingly routine murder case in the once-quiet town of Happy Rock. But what begins as a simple investigation quickly spirals into conspiracies, cult activity, and truths far darker than expected. The sense of dread…
Developed by Terror Dog Studio, Hellstuck Rage With Your Friends is exactly what it sounds like – an ever punishing, precision platforming adventure title where you’re trapped in the fiery (and icy) pits of Hell and have to escape…. by constantly jumping upwards (and often falling downwards) through the nine circles (a la Dante’s Inferno). Sounds easy, right? However, your patience is about to be tested in a whole array of different ways. A Fresh Launch for a Familiar Face Hellstuck Rage With Your Friends isn’t a stranger to MyGamer, of course. Back in 2024, our esteemed editor covered the game for its launch on the Nintendo Switch. Last year, the game was released on the Switch with Diamond Hands in an aptly named “Rage…
Booting up NETK2GAMES’ Rally Arcade Classics feels like hopping into a time capsule that’s been collecting dust from the golden era of arcade racers.

UBOAT isn’t just a submarine simulator, as you would be forgiven for thinking, but rather a survival story told through authentic feeling steel corridors, shellshocked and weary sailors and the ominous groaning of metal under pressure. The game puts you in the polished shoes of a UBOAT captain (with very little ceremony or preamble), and before you know it, you’re juggling torpedoes, navigation and crew morale like your life depends on it – and more often than not, it does. UBOAT – Setting Sail My first hours with UBOAT were messy, and that’s being kind to myself. The boat itself looked like something from the pages of a history textbook – narrow bunks, cluttered machinery, and charts adorning the walls. I, however, had no clue…
Set in war-torn medieval Japan, Sengoku Dynasty drops you into the worn sandals of a villager with one monumental task ahead of them: take a burned-out community and turn it into a thriving settlement that can withstand the many trials and tribulations that time can (and will) throw its way. On paper, it sounds ambitious (and in practice, it really is), however it’s delivered at a surprisingly tranquil and steady pace, as opposed to any elaborate gestures. Yes, the opening hours are slow and, admittedly, rather tedious at times, but there’s no getting around that. You’ll complete the usual early-game tasks such as gathering sticks (many of), hunting for food, and building campfire to cook – all the while, keeping one nervous eye on your…
