Videogame index: C
Title | Genre | Rating | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Californium | Narrative Exploration | 3.8 | A terrible walking-sim with a somewhat interesting artstyle, bogged down by awful writing and annoying gameplay |
Call of Juarez: Gunslinger ★ | First-Person Shooter | 8.4 | Very enjoyable western-themed FPS with actually pretty neat writing |
Capitalism Plus | Management / Economic Simulation | 7.7 | Dry and obtuse, but fairly deep and intricate management sim from 1997 |
Cardiac | Exploration | 3.1 | Itch.io bundle-fodder. Terrible performance and no substance whatsoever. |
The Caribbean Sail | Oregon Trail clone | 7.2 | Ye olde Oregon trail with a nautical theme. Charming, but could've done with a bit more variety. |
Carnal | Retro-FPS | 7.7 | Carries the feel of old Build engine games despite being 3D. Fun, weird and amateurish in equal measure. |
Castle Crashers | Beat 'em Up | 7.3 | Classic sidescrolling Beat 'em Up action with cartoony, flash-derived graphics and four player co-op |
Cave Story | Action-Platformer | 8.6 | One of the first "modern" indies to really make a splash |
Chess Is Stupid | Top-down Shooter | 6.6 | Pretty simplistic, riding entirely off the silly concept |
Chop Goblins | Retro-FPS | 8.1 | Fun hour-long comedy-FPS by the guy who made Dusk |
Circa Infinity | Experimental Platformer | 7.4 | Trippy "circular platfomer" |
The Citadel ★ | Retro-FPS | 8.2 | One of the weirder entries in the genre. Excellent gunplay coupled with extremely repetitive environments and a slightly worrying focus on anime girls getting killed in needlessly gory ways. |
Cities Skylines ★ | City Builder | 9.1 | Very absorbing, despite the flawed traffic mechanics and deeply questionable DLC practices |
Cloud Gardens | Casual / Sandbox | 5.3 | Wants to be an arty "cozy game", but ends up just being boring and pointless instead |
Code of Princess | Beat 'em Up | 5.3 | |
Colin McRae Rally | Rally simulation | 6.3 | Boiled-down for mobile devices. Not great, but passes the time I guess. |
Comanche 4 | Helicopter simulation | 8.4 | Really more of an action game with a billion keybinds than an actual milsim (thank god) |
Concrete Jungle | Puzzle | 8.2 | Addictive, vaguely tetris-like grid puzzler with deckbuilding elements and a city building-theme |
The Consuming Shadow | Horror Roguelite | 8.0 | Lovecraftian-themed, with simple, flash-esque visuals and unique investigative mechanics |
Contraption Maker | Puzzle | 7.4 | 'Member The Incredible Machine? |
The Corridor | Experimental Narrative Exploration | 7.1 | Poor man's Stanley Parable |
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive | Multiplayer FPS | 7.5 | Solid game with a terrible fanbase |
Crashlands | Open-World Survival | 5.8 | |
Creeper World 3 | Real-Time Strategy / Tower Defense | 8.4 | Unique scifi-themed strategy game about fighting against a liquid swarm intelligence |
The Crew 2 | Open-World Arcade Racing | 7.0 | Mostly enjoyable, if deeply flawed. The gear tuning is one of the most stunningly idiotic mechanics I have ever seen in a videogame |
Crimzon Clover World Ignition | Vertical Shoot 'em Up | 8.4 | Classic Bullet Hell excess. Easier and more accessible than the likes of Ikaruga |
Critters for Sale | Visual Novel | 8.0 | Weird and surreal, with great atmosphere and soundtrack |
Cruelty Squad ★ | First-Person Shooter / Stealth | 9.1 | Amazingly fun stealth-based Immersive Sim with an extremely unique aesthetic |
Chton | Roguelite Retro-FPS | 6.6 | Scifi roguelite Wolfenstein. Too repetitive and simplistic in the long run. |
Cultic: Episode 1 | Retro-FPS | 8.6 | Episodic Blood-influenced hillbilly cult-massacre. Visuals aren't great, but the gunplay is. |
Cyberdimension Neptunia: 4 Goddesses Online | Action-JRPG | 7.5 | Neptunia spin-off playing out like a single player MMO. Plenty of cringeworthy "gamer humor" |
CyberTaxi | Arcade Racing | 5.8 | Extremely rough and amateurish homage to "Quarantine" (1994) |
