What are we playing this weekend? #19
, by Thibaut
Let's be honest, almost everyone is going to be immersed in Starfield this weekend. But that doesn't mean that's all there is to gaming! So without further ado, thets discover a few hidden gems now, lest you get tired of exploring the space.
1. Whisker Squadron: Survivor
We start with a cosmic shooter with a pleasant roguelite component. Here, players take part in 30-minute races aboard their ship. Along the way, you'll have to dodge numerous obstacles and destroy all opponents in order to level up and upgrade your equipment.
2. Blasphemous 2
Here's the game that's undoubtedly the best known of our selection this week. Blasphemous 2 is a metroidvania in which the player explores a fascinating universe based on Andalusian folklore while taking part in demanding battles. The bosses are a real handful, forcing you to optimize and customize your skills on a regular basis.
3. Hadean Tactics
It's another deck-building roguelike that are all the rage now. All in all, over 260 cards await to be discovered, and there are three main heroes available. You'll need to strategize and optimize both your deck and squad if you want to progress.
4. Town of Salem 2
Now out of early access, this second entry shows off its full potential. Up to 14 players can play together online to unravel the mysteries of Salem. Factions will also punctuate each game, and numerous avatar customization options are included.
5. Draft of Darkness
Finally, we end on a survival-horror RPG with, once again, deck building (starting to notice a pattern, huh?). Certain cards can be used to create devastating combos. The adventure takes place in a gloomy, procedurally-generated world.
