Garfield Kart

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Everyone
Genre:	Kart Racer
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

Garfield seems like the last character you'd expect to host a kart racing tournament, but it turned out to be a fun little game - as long as you're fine with playing alone.

Brief thoughts: Players can sabotage other racers by tossing pies or other hazards in their way, but that's about it.

GenerativeCity Freerun

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Everyone
Genre:	Walking Simulator
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

This game is completely free!
Fancy a game of hide and go seek? Somewhere in this computer generated city is a red cube, and it's up to you to find it. The tricky part is figuring out how to parkour over the buildings to reach the cube.

Brief thoughts: This is more of a tech demo than a full fledged game.

Geometry Dash

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Ages 6 and up
Genre:	Rhythm
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

Geometry Dash's title couldn't be more on the nose. This Rhythm game boils down to simple geometric shapes dashing to the finish line. The trick behind it is that the levels are designed to sync up with the soundtrack: most of the time, you're going to be jumping, hovering, and sliding in tune with the beat.

Brief thoughts: This is a difficult game that can easily frustrate someone, and there is always the possibility of something you don't like appearing in a level made by another user. However, both of these issues are under your control, so pick your levels wisely.

Giana Sisters 2D

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Everyone
Genre:	Platformer
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

Back when the PC gaming world was ruled by the Commodore 64, a game called The Great Giana Sisters was released to much applause. Unfortunately, this HD remake just doesn't live up to the hype.

Brief thoughts: This is your typical platformer, almost painfully so. Thus, the most objectionable material it has is some mild violence and a few spooky ghosts.

Glass Masquerade

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Everyone
Genre:	Puzzle
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

In this puzzle game, you're tasked with reassembling clock faces. Each clock face is made of stained glass, and represents a different country from around the world. It's a quiet and beautiful game, and I'd highly suggest trying it.

Brief thoughts: This is a very clean game, with the only concern being what's depicted on a few specific images. These include eastern dragons, a Hindu goddess, and a woman wearing a showy outfit. Note that all of the pictures are done in an art deco style, which limits how much detail they can show.

Glass Masquerade 2: Illusions

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Ages 6 and up
Genre:	Puzzle
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

Waking up to discover yourself in a surreal dream world could be enough of a problem if it wasn't for all of these locked doors blocking your path back to reality. In order to find your way home, you'll need to reassemble the stained glass mirrors that hold the keys.

Brief thoughts: This is essentially a stained glass themed jigsaw puzzle game, so the only issues are the images shown - some of which show spooky or scary things.

Glorkian Warrior: The Trials of Glork

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Everyone
Genre:	Shoot 'em Up
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

The Glorkian Warrior and his trusty Super Backpack must protect their planet against invading hordes, a Magic Robot, and a host of silly and surreal antics!

Brief thoughts: This is a silly arcade game with only one real issue - the main character tends to use self-depreciating humor.

Goat Simulator

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Ages 10 and up
Genre:	Simulation / Open world
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

When people make games, it's usually because they have some great creative vision or idea they want to express. Goat Simulator, on the other hand, started out as little more than a quick joke. But, when people found the "game" hilarious and began asking for their own copy to play with, this buggy mess became an actual product. It's thoroughly insane, and there's no real point beyond having silly fun.

Brief thoughts: The main point of this game is just to have fun and mess around, which typically involves using your goat to cause mayhem. While this is usually all in good fun, the player is able to mess with questionable things, like a satanic-looking pentacle that can turn you into a demon-goat if you sacrifice enough humans on it.

Granny

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Ages 10 and up
Genre:	Stealth / Room Escape
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

This game has a very simple premise: You've been captured by a crazy old lady (aka Granny), and now you must figure out how to escape her house as quickly as possible! There are items to find, puzzles to solve, and two possible ways to escape - but remember: she's always watching!

Brief thoughts: Scary images and bloody decor are the primary problems here, with violent actions being a distant second.

Grow Home

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Ages 6 and up
Genre:	3D Platformer
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

In order to save its home planet, a Botanical Utility Droid (BUD for short) must explore an alien world and gather the seeds produced by a gigantic alien plant. Along the way, BUD will have to explore caves, climb mountains, and even find ways to drift from one floating island to another.

Brief thoughts: Although players do have the option to torment the local wildlife, you're not required to do any of that.

Gunman Clive

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Everyone
Genre:	Platform Shooter
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

When a group of bandits kidnap Mayor Johnson's daughter, the heroic Gunman Clive rushes to the rescue - but if he's going to save Miss Johnson, he'll need more than his wits to track the bandits across deserts, through caverns, and even into outer space!

Brief thoughts: This is an extremely tame game, even though it's about cowboys and robots shooting at each other.

Gunman Clive 2

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Everyone
Genre:	Platform Shooter
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

The bandits have returned and they're out for revenge! Join Gunman Clive, Miss Johnson, and their new friend Chieftain Bob as they travel the world in an attempt to defeat the bandits once and for all in this incredibly crazy new adventure!

Brief thoughts: Like Clive's first adventure, there is very little actual violence to be seen in this game.

Hearthstone

ESRB Rating:	T - Teenagers
My Rating:	Ages 10 and up
Genre:	Card Game
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

This game is free, but paid features exist
Hearthstone is a virtual collectible card game based on Blizzard's popular World of Warcraft franchise. Like the real world counterparts, you play this game by collecting cards, strategically grouping them into decks, and "battling" other players in online matches.

Brief thoughts: This is a card game where the matches are meant to depict battles between different characters and their armies. Thus, the cards themselves often describe violent acts, fantasy magics, and even fictional demons.

But, the biggest issue with this game is that, like many collectible card games, you gain new cards by either earning or purchasing booster packs - and you can use real money to do this.

The Herbalist

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Ages 13 and up
Genre:	Visual Novel
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

Slavya's grandmother has been missing for some time, and now she's curious about her grandmother's fate. The small town her grandmother had lived in is in need of an herbalist, and since Slavya seems to have the talent for this craft, she moves in to her grandmother's old home and takes up the job earn some income while she investigates.

Brief thoughts: Although this game is based around creating magical potions, the biggest concern is the suggestive imagery. It doesn't get pornographic, but it might be more than someone is comfortable with.

Heretic: Shadow of the Serpent Riders

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Adults - 18+
Genre:	First Person Shooter
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

The Order of the Sign has taken over the world, labeling anybody who would not submit to their cult as heretics to be exterminated. The last of his race, a lone hero must rise up and put an end to the cult's reign of terror!

Brief thoughts: Despite the name, there aren't many references to evil magic. Instead, the main issue is the large amount of blood and gore depicted during the violent gameplay.

Heroes of Hellas

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Everyone
Genre:	Match 3
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

Something is very wrong on Mt. Olympus: a daring thief has stolen the Scepter of Power and secreted it away somewhere in Hades! To help Zeus and the other gods unmask the thief and recover the Scepter, you'll need to solve the puzzles presented to you by this quiet Match 3 game!

Brief thoughts: The only real issue with this game is that it's themed after Greek/Roman mythology.

Hero Siege

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Ages 13 and up
Genre:	Arena based hack 'n slash
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

Live in the town of Inoya could hardly be worse. Horrible creatures are constantly attacking what remains of the village, and it's only a matter of time before it falls under the control of Damien, the son of the Devil himself. Unfortunately for the townsfolk, the heroes who've come to battle with Damien's forces are just as psychotic and violent as the monsters they'd be fighting.

Brief thoughts: Blood and gore are a common sight in this game, and while there is an option to reduce the amount of it you'll see, it won't clean everything up. But while the combat can be a big issue, the omnipresent references to demons and Satan (some of which are considered a good thing) makes this game conflict heavily with Christian morals.

Hexen: Beyond Heretic

ESRB Rating:	M - Mature Audiences
My Rating:	Adults - 18+
Genre:	First Person Shooter
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

The epic struggle against the evil Serpent Riders and their diabolical Order of the Sign continues as three new heroes rise up to challenge the cult in this sequel to Heretic. Each playable character has their own set of weapons and a unique gameplay style, allowing players to experience the battle in three unique ways!

Brief thoughts: Most of the characters in this game make frequent use of magic to aid them in their battles, but the large amount of blood and gore is easily the bigger issue here.

Hexen: Deathkings of the Dark Citadel

ESRB Rating:	M - Mature Audiences
My Rating:	Adults - 18+
Genre:	First Person Shooter
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

After the defeat of Korax, our heroes decided to claim his Chaos Sphere for themselves. This proved to be a bad idea, as it promptly transported them into the Realm of the Dead. Now stranded behind enemy lines, our heroes must fight through the hordes of the undead in order to find their way home!

Brief thoughts: This is an expansion for Hexen, so it shares all of the same problems. In some cases it's actually a little worse, as you're more likely to find dead bodies in these new levels.

Hidden Expidition Titanic

ESRB Rating:	E - Everyone
My Rating:	Everyone
Genre:	Hidden Object
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

Having played through a number of hidden object games over the years, this one was a real disappointment, and I'm sorry to say that it's one of the very few games I've reviewed on this site that I cannot recommend. It feels like too many shortcuts were made in the design of the game, resulting a subpar title.

Brief thoughts: There really isn't anything morally questionable to be found in this game, but at the same time, it's not a fun game, so I wouldn't recommend it anyway.

Hill Climb Racing

ESRB Rating:	E - Everyone
My Rating:	Ages 6 and up
Genre:	Endless Runner
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

This game is free, but contains advertisements
In this fun little game, you try to drive a vehicle as far to the right as possible. Of course, that's not going to be too easy: you'll need to keep your ride fueled and avoid flipping it over. This is easier said than done when you're flying over hills and other obstacles.

Brief thoughts: There isn't much to worry about here; at worst, you'll hear the driver's bones snap if you wreck badly enough. There are also advertisements on certain screens, though they are very unobtrusive.

Hocus Pocus

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Ages 10 and up
Genre:	Platform Shooter
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

A free demo is available
Hocus Pocus is a young wizard with big dreams. In order to make those dreams a reality, he sets off on a journey across time and space, his eventual goal being the defeat of four of the Wizard Council's greatest foes.

Brief thoughts: Magic is omnipresent in this game, though it's mostly reduced to ammunition or specific powerups. A potentially bigger issue is that some of the backgrounds depict demonic or frightening creatures.

Hollow Knight

ESRB Rating:	E10 - Everyone (Ages 10 and up)
My Rating:	Ages 10 and up
Genre:	Metroidvania
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

As you search for answers to your own history in the remains of the Kingdom of Hallownest, you'll find that a dangerous infection is spreading throughout the kingdom, and that its future lies on your tiny shoulders.

Brief thoughts: While the majority of the violence seen in this game isn't anything to write home about, there are a few exceptions. A bigger issue is the way everything is built around magic, with ghosts, spirits, and even a pair of rival "gods" making an appearance.

Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?!

ESRB Rating:	E - Everyone
My Rating:	Ages 6 and up
Genre:	Time Management
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

In this humorous time management game, the typical roles are reversed. Instead of you running around and fighting monsters, you run the smithy that makes the protagonist's weapons. This is a silly, "feel good" sort of game, and casual gamers will probably enjoy the time they spend watching their potatoes dance away the hours.

Brief thoughts: While the main focus of the game is creating weaponry of all sorts, you never actually use them or witness them being used. At most, customers comment on their effectiveness when they provide feedback. More serious issues revolve around references to various deities, magic, and the occasional mildly suggestive outfit.

House Flipper

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Everyone
Genre:	Simulation
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

A house flipper is a person who buys homes with the intent of fixing them up and reselling them for a profit. That's exactly what you do in this game; yet the tedious task of cleaning garbage, painting walls, and installing sinks is oddly relaxing and fun.

Brief thoughts: There are some minor issues with this game - such as a small amount of blood and some g-rated swearing - but nothing is serious enough to warrant much concern.

Hunting Simulator

ESRB Rating:	T - Teenagers
My Rating:	Ages 13 and up
Genre:	First Person Shooter
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

As the name suggests, this is a simple game about hunting different types of animals. However, there's no real progression beyond unlocking new regions, so it feels more like an arcade game than a true simulator.

Brief thoughts: This is a game about hunting and little more; as such it's not surprising to find some blood, and you'll need to manually retrieve the bodies of any animals you claim.

InCell VR

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Everyone
Genre:	Racing / Educational (sort of)
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

This game is completely free!
Scientists have developed a new way to cure disease: deliver the vaccines directly into the cells before they can become infected! The only catch is that this solution needs to be tested before it can be approved for widespread use, and they need someone to pilot the test flights...

Brief thoughts: There's nothing offensive about this game.

INK

ESRB Rating:	NR - Not Rated
My Rating:	Ages 6 and up
Genre:	Platformer
Platforms:
Fun-O-Meter:

This platformer has a simple but surprisingly difficult twist: you can't see the level. In order to make a section visible, you need to paint it by touching it with your shape, popping enemies, or dodging projectiles.

Brief thoughts: This game really doesn't feature any objectionable content; at most, the animated shapes pop into paint splatters when something hits them or they touch something they shouldn't.
