Black Tower Enigma is charming a GBC Zelda-inspired puzzle adventure about a surprisingly smart orc on a quest to save his wife (and more!). Interesting variety of puzzles, with cryptic clues that are rarely (if ever) located in the same place as the corresponding puzzle.

Synthesis of Corruption, recently released and on sale, is an engaging, challenging survival horror FPS. It's basically a cyberpunk fusion of Resident Evil and Half-Life (there's even Headcrabs(spiders actually)). Interesting visual style that starts with something like Half-Life, but builds on it to make something different with it.

Tearscape, recently released and on sale, is an exciting fusion of GB Zelda and Bloodborne. Wears its influences on its sleeve, but the blend and execution are so good it hardly feels derivative. Atmosphere, combat, level-design; every aspect of the game is great, a well-rounded experience.
