A selection of interesting new releases on Steam this week, including narrative puzzle game Reviver, action RPG Freedom Wars remaster, fishing RPG Sea Fantasy, and horror game Cursed Digicam.
On an average day, about a dozen new games are released on Steam . While we think that's a good thing, it can be hard to keep up. Potentially exciting gems are sure to be lost in the deluge of new things to play unless you sort through every single game that is released on Steam . So that’s exactly what we’ve done. If nothing catches your fancy this week, we've gathered the details on a few titles that are worth your attention.
There's Reviver, one of those games that takes place on a fictional PC desktop. Protagonist Miki works as a point of contact for her employer, an architecture firm, and it's partially your job to field inquiries. But you'll also be interacting with other software, engaging in non-work conversations of a much more personal nature, working on architectural blueprints, and even meeting up with people IRL. It's a gorgeous looking thing, evoking a not-too-distant past that already feels like a completely different world.Reviver is a narrative puzzle game with meticulously detailed hand-drawn art. It follows the entire life of its two main characters, Carlos and Felicia. While puzzle solving is a huge element (there are over 50 puzzles to complete), the decisions you make throughout will affect the relationship between these protagonists too.Reviver comes from the same studio who brought us Freedom Wars originally released for the PlayStation Vita in 2014 and was hugely popular in Japan (as far as Vita games went, anyway). It's a third-person action RPG with Monster Hunter trappings, though its sci-fi setting kinda puts it closer to something like God Eater. Freedom Wars has a reputation for being a little tonally bonkers, and while I'd definitely recommend playing it, you should probably go into this with its handheld origins front of mind. Still, in addition to being a much smoother and sharper experience, this remaster also overhauls the weapon crafting system and adds some more difficulty options.Keep up to date with the most important stories and the best deals, as picked by the PC Gamer team.Receive email from us on behalf of our trusted partners or sponsors How can you pass up a 16-bit style RPG centred entirely around fishing? Sea Fantasy is exactly that: you roam a pleasant open world looking for great fishing spots in your pursuit of 'SeaAZ'—which are basically fish. There's also puzzle-centric dungeon crawling and fishing rod crafting. Most enticing is the promise that this is not a 'peaceful' fishing game. No: this is a tense, dramatic, nail-biting fishing game with apocalyptic undertones.Chilla's Art strikes again with another single-sitting horror experience. As the name implies, this is about a 'cursed digital camera' that 'captures ghosts from a strange website'. If you capture a photo of a spirit, uploading it to a mysterious website will liberate them. As peaceful as that sounds, I've got a strong feeling that something really bad will happen in Cursed Digicam
