Dosa Divas

Dosa Divas is a turn-based RPG by Outerloop Games where you play as two sisters – Samara and Amani – inside a spirit-powered battle mech suit. Together, they cook meals to reconnect with their culture while fending off corporate fast food empires. Dosa Divas releases April 14th and also includes a 15-minute demo where you can test your battle skills by cooking meals to boost yourself and your party, matching flavor profiles against enemy weaknesses to leave them stuffed!

The game offers several accessibility features that spice up the gameplay including a dedicated accessibility menu with options like auto button holds, taps, dialogue text speed adjustment, difficulty modifiers, highlighted choice options, a tutorial menu, and more – making it especially delicious for players with mobility accessibility needs.

Outbound

Outbound by Square Glade Games is a cozy road-trip adventure far from civilization where you build a sustainable home on wheels.

Outbound releases April 23rd on Steam, Switch, Xbox, and PlayStation, and includes a playable 30-minute demo on Steam.

We loved the game's visual accessibility features, including multiple narration options, UI rescaling, flash disabling, and FOV adjustment. It also includes options to disable minigames or reduce their difficulty, and a misophonia-friendly mode for players sensitive to eating sounds.
