Games Like Subnautica 2: 7 Underwater & Co-Op Survival Games to Play in 2026
Subnautica 2 is the most-wishlisted game on Steam right now and Early Access drops in May 2026. About 4 million people are sitting on a wishlist with nothing to do until Unknown Worlds opens the floodgates. I’m one of them. So this is the list I built for myself while waiting. Seven games that scratch […]
No Man’s Sky Xeno Arena Best Creatures & Tier List (April 2026)
I’ve put somewhere around 800 hours into No Man’s Sky across the years, and I’ll be honest: when I first heard Hello Games was adding Pokémon-style creature battles, I thought it was a joke. Then update 6.3 dropped on April 8 and I’ve barely done anything else since. Two weeks in, I can confidently say […]
Vampire Crawlers: Beginner Guide, Best Combos & Everything You Need to Know
I have about 400 hours in Vampire Survivors. And when Poncle announced they were turning that formula into a deckbuilder, I had exactly two thoughts: “that’s either genius or insane” and “I’m playing this day one regardless.” After spending a genuinely embarrassing amount of time with the Steam Next Fest demo, I can tell you […]
Best Roguelike Deckbuilder Games in 2026: The Definitive Ranking
Roguelike deckbuilders are having the best year the genre has ever seen. Slay the Spire 2 sold 5 million copies in its first month. Monster Train 2 hit a 95% positive rating on Steam. Balatro spawned an entire sub-genre of “Balatro-likes.” And we’re only in April. I’ve played most of these. Some for hundreds of […]
Mouse: P.I. For Hire – Beginner Tips, All Weapons & What to Know Before You Play
Mouse: P.I. For Hire launched today and I’ve been waiting for this one since the tech demo went viral back in 2023. A 1930s cartoon noir FPS where you play as a hardboiled mouse detective voiced by Troy Baker, blasting your way through a city of crooked cops and gangster rats? With hand-drawn rubber hose […]
Grounded 2 Beginner Guide: Your First 10 Hours
Grounded 2 does what a lot of survival games do wrong at the start: it dumps you into a massive open world, gives you a broken tool, and says good luck. Brookhollow Park is three times the size of the original game’s backyard, and if you don’t know what to focus on, those first few […]
5 Games Like No Man’s Sky That Scratch the Same Itch
No Man’s Sky is in its 10th anniversary year and still getting major updates, but after hundreds of hours, even the most dedicated traveler needs a change of scenery. The tricky part is finding games that capture what actually makes NMS special. It’s not just “space game.” It’s that specific combination of landing on a […]
No Man’s Sky Beginner Guide: What to Do in Your First 10 Hours
No Man’s Sky is one of those games that will either hook you for hundreds of hours or lose you in the first three. The difference usually comes down to whether you know what to focus on early. The game throws a lot at you all at once, and the built-in tutorial, while better than […]
First Survival Game to Play: A Beginner’s Roadmap
Survival games are everywhere right now. But if you’ve never played one, staring at a Steam page with hundreds of options is honestly overwhelming. Do you start with Minecraft? Valheim? Something with zombies? And why do half of them look like they want to punish you for existing? I’ve been playing survival games on and […]
