Well, thank you very much, Jeffrey, for adding more to Prime Gaming for June 2025 with about as much fanfare and timing, to the point where I just wanted to sleep. We’ve got six more games added to Prime as of yesterday, so let’s quickly get into them.
We’ll start with the one that I’m not too keen on, Dungeon of the ENDLESS Definitive Edition, available through the Amazon Games app right now. Releasing ahead of AMPLITUDE Studios’ next game, ENDLESS Legend 2, this August, this is the studio’s “Rogue-Like Dungeon-Defense game” with a focus on co-op. I won’t say it is bad because I haven’t played it, and that’s my point right there, I can’t find a reason to want to play it personally. However, fans of dungeon crawler and tower defense games are probably far more excited – two things I’m rarely enthusiastic about.
Classic pointy-Boobarella and her playground mansion, however, I’m on that like a pig on modern politics. My editor would have killed me if I said the other thing. Anyway, available now with a GOG code, you can pick up Tomb Raider I-III Remastered Starring Lara Croft, and you know what, I might actually have an opinion on the remaster of three games that I hold up to be damn near perfect, and I do. These remasters, as I said back in the review last year, are fantastic. It has enough old charm to keep people like me happy, but is modernized enough to keep the young people interested.
I’ll admit, I’m surprised this is the one that they’re offering via GOG, as I believe there is something about the PC port being screwy on one storefront while being fixed on another. Saints Row 2 famously has a terrible PC port, one fixed only by the “Gentlemen of the Row mod”, a mod created by the fantastic Mike Watson AKA IdolNinja, who passed away a couple of years ago now. Mike is the reason you can play Saints Row 2 on Steam or GOG in the first place, and you’ll need Mike’s work to fix the GOG version available now via Prime Gaming.
Previously available, I think during a daily giveaway thing on Epic in that Christmas/New Year period(?), the next one up is TOEM, which is also available this time through GOG. Developed by Something We Made, this 2021 release is a simple, cozy little adventure puzzle game about exploring and taking pictures (there’s a subtitle of “A Photo Adventure”) in a beautiful hand-drawn black and white world. Of course, this is much like the ENDLESS series is an offering ahead of the studio’s next game, with TOEM 2 recently announced for 2026.
Shark? Meet jump. Released back in 2013, Saints Row had already featured aliens and Hulk Hogan (a caricature within himself), now setting up your gormless monster of create-a-character nightmares as President, minutes before an alien invasion and eventual Matrix-like simulation of the same city you’d already been in before. Yes, the penultimate game of the additions is once again available through GOG, and it is Saints Row IV: Re-Elected. If you wanted more of Saints Row: The Third as is, then you’re in luck. If you were hoping for more of Saints Row 2‘s writing, you’re out of modern politics.
The final game of the additional offerings is Star Wars: Rebellion, available through GOG. Of course, in 2025, the Rebellion is the bad guys because I guess no one who calls themselves a Star Wars fan understood the point of the very thing they’ve made their entire personality. Released in 1998, this 4X RTS didn’t receive the best of reviews back when it was released, so I don’t know how much you’re going to enjoy it more than 25 years later with the advent of the “Star Trek: Armada 3 mod” for Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion.
