A smart and challenging take on a roguelike deck builder that instead decides to roll the dice for luck

Lil' Guardsman

For once a game that somewhat picks up the Papers, Please torch has managed to do something cool with it

Tin Hearts

A charming mix of story beats and generally smart puzzles help to make this easy to appreciate… once you get going
