Mario RPG-style timed attacks and combo moves with multiple characters spice up combat. You’ll need to mix spells with normal attacks to keep the flow of the fight.

Outside of combat, your party can climb, swim, and jump through gorgeous pixel-art environments. Sea of Stars is an epic RPG story with tons of side activities like fishing, coming in 2023.

You do that by leaping from shadow to shadow, manipulating the environment to create more shade for yourself. It’s set to release in 2023.

Cute and evil: just my type.

One of the most anticipated indies of 2022 launches on August 11. In Cult of the Lamb, you manage a woodland community of adorable animals — then channel their prayers to feed an eldritch god.

Its PlayStation Blog update lays out the logistics of running your community. Turns out, that takes a surprising amount of poop-related work, including building outhouses and using it as fertilizer.

Everyone knows you can return from the afterlife by beating Death at golf, but Cursed to Golf is the first game to tackle it. This rogue-like sidescroller puts you in the shoes of a golfer putting their way out of Purgatory.

Chuhai Labs

Launching August 18, it features tons of offbeat obstacles, power-ups, and challenges even more hellish than playing regular golf.

Inscryption is a roguelike card game that’s built around being hard to describe, with body horror, ever-changing rules, and tons of surprises I wouldn’t dare spoil.

The upcoming port adds new features tied to the PlayStation controller, like haptic and audio feedback. There’s no word on its release date yet.
