Games in the list are selected looking at the supposed artistic features (content, aesthetics, narration, etc. as specified here and here) that can be argued from news and trailers published during the development; membership in that list is not equivalent to critical judgment or quality assurance. Titles are usually linked to developers websites or trailers. Previews of games in red ink summarize news and info and should not be understood as reviews. Games are reviewed only after being played and tested; reviews are gathered here. It is not granted that all the games in the list below will be played and reviewed. List is continuously updated. New entries are added at the end of each category and not at the beginning.
