In this episode, I cover four indie games:
En Garde!
En Garde! is like Sekiro for ants, and what I mean by that is that the game is actually quite very good! The combat in En Garde is spiritually similar to Sekiro but it’s much more accessible and forgiving. The magical quality of the combat is that it still makes you feel like you are a pro whenever you successfully pull of a series parries and dodges in a row, especially when surrounded by multiple enemies.

An Ankou
An Ankou is a simple roguelite. You go into the game, craft one weapon, upgrade one set of armor, and leave a bloody trail of spider and other monstrosities’ corpses as you fight your way tooth and nail to the final boss.

Fae Farm
Fae Farm is a very competent farming simulator in a sea of farming sims. It has tried and true elements and mechanics found in games such as Harvest Moon and Stardew Valley as well as the more casual social village sims like Animal Crossing.

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre
Dead by Daylight fans will be immediately familiar with the asymmetric multiplayer gameplay focusing on horror found in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Four survivors are tasked with escaping the basement and then the house of the Slaughter family.
