I've only gotten through a few, myself. House Flipper 2 seemed like an interesting iteration on the original (from what I played of that). Not necessarily for me, but I think it'll please those that are looking for that. I played quite a bit more Kingdom Eighties than I expected I would. Having just played the first Kingdom for the first time not too long ago, Eighties had a lot of changes that I was pleased with, and the theme is great. I will say that making an army of young children is...a bit iffy, hah. Though playing the "big kids" trying to protect their town is pretty nice.

Still have a The Invincible and Lies of P to check out this weekend, and whatever else seems interesting. Any recommendations for other demos that shouldn't be missed?

I think the only one I'm sticking around for is House Flipper 2, even though it was extremely buggy for me. I tried a few other ones.. nothing really stuck, to the point I can't even recall the names of the games.

Have you played the first one? If so how does it improve upon the first?

It seems much more polished, but I don't think the demo for the second shows anything beyond the mechanics (versus the actual gameplay loop).
