Boyfriend Dungeon

Melee combat with weapons or fists

An action dungeon crawler where your weapons are also dating partners: between fights in procedurally generated dungeons you build relationships with your blades and with people in town. Charming, funny and sincere about relationships, consent and self-care.

Heaven Will Be Mine

Strong, story-driven narrative

A queer mecha visual novel set in an alternate 1980s space program: you follow three women pilots caught between rivalry, romance and the question of whether humanity is worth saving. Sharply written, boldly styled and emotionally messy.

Kamikaze Lassplanes

Strong, story-driven narrative

Yakuza 0

Historical setting

A gripping yakuza crime drama set in bubble-era Japan, where brutal street brawls with switchable fighting styles sit alongside hilariously absurd side stories, karaoke and business management. Kiryu's and Majima's intertwined tales are among the series' finest.

Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes

A party of several characters

A hack-and-slash spin-off of Three Houses where you mow down armies as the mercenary Shez, command allied units, and follow a different war story depending on which house you side with, giving familiar characters new twists.
