Windrose Early Access Impressions

Sometimes you will unearth a diamond in the rough and find absolute joy in that discovery. For me this happens to be Windrose, a high seas pirate adventure that has been a blast to play.

Monster Lab has a very simple premise that reminds me a bit of Cash Cleaner for some reason. With clean graphics and cute monsters, it has good potential to be a fun time. And, with some things being teased in the game currently, I look forward to what this team will add to in the future.

There are also some UI and quality of life improvements that would help make the game a little easier to understand.

I look forward to seeing how PIONER grows and develops, and seeing what kind of new features the devs have in mind.

Beastro is a fun and refreshing take on the typical Roguelite genre, as instead of going out on the runs yourself, you make the meals that the caretakers eat before they head out on their mission. In Beastro, you are not a fighter; you are a chief who runs the local eatery.

The loop, loot, and shopkeeping are top-notch and ever more addictive than the original game. Moonlighter 2 offers up a compelling reason to jump in now, despite the nature of what Early Access can mean at the start of its journey.
