AI-powered picks based on gameplay, mechanics & feel

Ori and the Will of the Wisps

Like Bonk, Ori's fluid platforming and combat demand precise timing and reflexes, but its Metroidvania structure and emotional story add layers of depth.

Hollow Knight: Silksong

While still unreleased, Silksong promises a similar blend of challenging platforming and combat in a dark fantasy world, but with a new protagonist and setting.

Planet Alpha
