Salmi Games’ Sweet Surrender drops players into a stark, neon-washed megatower where survival is a series of vertical gambits: sprinting through enemy corridors, grappling to new vantage points and blasting automatons on the climb to the summit. The premise leans into arcade immediacy rather than story complexity, using the tower’s verticality and the threat of permanent loss to press players into aggressive, forward momentum.

Beneath review (PS5)
The moment the player plunges into the icy depths with Noah Quinn, the veteran diver at the heart of Beneath’s narrative, the micro-studio ambition of Camel 101 is immediately evident.

The ambition here is commendable, but the transitions sometimes feel rushed or under-explained. Continue reading “Beneath review (PS5)”
