Game Spark's Weekly Indie Picks List Mana Alchemy, Dungeon Settlers, Trash Day

Two of the three picks carry concrete dates and a price while the third only has a year, which is the practical difference between a store page you can plan around and one you cannot.

Game Spark's Weekly Indie Picks List Mana Alchemy, Dungeon Settlers, Trash Day

Game Spark's third-week-of-October indie picks column lists three PC titles. Mana Alchemy is an open-world Vampire Survivors-style action RPG from METASLA, the developer of Sea Fantasy, with a 2027 release date and no price set. Dungeon Settlers is a colony sim and dungeon crawler with permadeath and procedurally generated dungeons, out September 4, 2026 at 2,480 yen. Trash Day is a physics-based raccoon co-op game for up to six players.

The column is a weekly format: the editorial team picks indie titles worth a look and gives each one a short write-up plus its platform, release date, and price. All three entries this week are Steam releases with Japanese language support, though the column only states Japanese availability for two of them.

The picks span three different reference points. Mana Alchemy builds on the auto-attacking Survivors formula with puzzle-arranged spells and a post-boss choice that alters the ending. Dungeon Settlers pairs base building with real-time combat you can pause. Trash Day drops the strategy entirely for raccoons pushing a stolen wagon.

  • Mana Alchemy: METASLA open-world action RPG, PC (Steam), 2027, price TBD
  • Dungeon Settlers: Colony sim and dungeon crawler, PC (Steam), September 4, 2026, 2,480 yen
  • Trash Day: Physics-based raccoon co-op for up to 6 players, PC
