● Steam Medieval Game Festival: “It’s Not Just About Kingdom Come!”
In gaming, the medieval setting is almost universal. It allows for games based on actual history, and it’s easy to weave all sorts of imagination into it. Taking it a step further, you can simply borrow the medieval concept and blend in swords and sorcery to create a fantasy world. Medieval is like the ‘all-purpose soy sauce’ of gaming.
Although ‘Persona 5 Royal’ has faced criticism for being seen as a ‘cash grab’ due to its sales policy, it undeniably stands as a masterpiece that has set a new standard for the series. With a record-breaking discount currently available, now is the perfect time to experience this exceptional game.
Similarly, ‘Nioh 3’ is currently 20% off and is receiving positive reviews for staying true to the identity of the series. If you enjoyed the previous titles, this is an opportunity not to be missed.
Meanwhile, ‘Crimson Desert’ has made significant improvements, particularly in adjusting difficulty levels to cater to a wider range of players. With an ‘Overwhelmingly Positive’ rating and an 80% recommendation rate, it is on track to becoming a near-perfect game in the coming months.
‘Torchlight: Infinite’ has also seen a resurgence with the launch of a new season update, attracting a significant increase in players. While the game relies on the excitement of new seasons, it still offers an enjoyable experience for returning players.
Lastly, ‘Pragmata’ by Capcom has exceeded expectations with its unique gameplay and engaging story, earning high ratings on Metacritic and OpenCritic. Despite minor criticisms, the game’s ‘Overwhelmingly Positive’ rating reflects its overall quality and satisfaction among players.

The indie game scene has recently seen the release of remarkable new titles. ‘Vampire Survivors’, the game that introduced the ‘Survivor-likes’ genre, has followed up with another successful title called ‘Vampire Crawler’, proving to be a hit once again.
Although ‘Vampire Crawler’ is an official sequel, it offers a different experience from its predecessor ‘Vampire Survivors’. With a shift to a first-person perspective and a genre change to a deck-building Roguelike, it may seem like a whole new game at first glance, despite retaining the pixel art style. However, the game has preserved its core essence and gameplay mechanics, making it easy, enjoyable, and addictive.
Despite being a deck-builder, ‘Vampire Crawler’ maintains a level of simplicity, allowing players to strategize their deck composition and combos to progress through levels without getting hit by enemies.
Similar to its predecessor, ‘Vampire Crawler’ may not appeal to everyone as a flawless masterpiece. The rough pixel art style and minimal storyline could divide opinions. However, one undeniable fact is its addictive nature, which rivals that of major titles. It’s a game that can keep you up all night, unintentionally playing “just one more round.” For fans of the previous game, ‘Vampire Crawler’ promises to deliver even more satisfaction.
