Whenever the authors finally get the chance to tell their story it evolves further than "Gears of Blade Runner". Nonetheless Binary Domain gets stuck in the middle between the eastern excellence of bossfights and the western school of modern shooter action. Unfortunately the PC version suffers from sluggish and not fully customizable controls.

A gorgeous looking cyberpunk world and intense shoot-outs: The Ascent is visually impressive and delivers bucketloads of shooting fun. But it is a complete failure in terms of storytelling and has a few (co-op) flaws.

The board game was optimized for mobile gaming needs, but the fun factor of the minigames fluctuates quite a bit.

You won't find any innovation here – somewhere between Bust-A-Move and Zuma this is just another "Match-3"-variation. But the idea of throwing people around is so ridiculously wacky that you have to play it to believe it.

Pure courage: Matt Gilgenbach confronts his fears publicly, he talks about his disease very openly. But as an interactive experience this is rather superficial.

I love Arkedo: For five years they keep doing what they love most – and that is goofy arcade games, in this case a ludicrous 2D-platformer with a high amount of cartoony violence.

An ambitious project that partially gets in its own way with an unattractive implementation. The interesting premise is offset by unmotivating gameplay.

It looks better than on consoles. And the added racing wheel support also helps to differentiate this racer from its siblings on PS4 and One. But the disappointment about all the wasted opportunities still is omnipresent.

Solid WWII strategy that tries desperately, but never manages to emerge from the shadow of Company of Heroes.

Pleasant Soulslike with a well thought-out, fast combat system and a crisp level of difficulty, which often goes too far.

For the occasional game of pool you won’t be disappointed.

Charming loot and monster hunt with a high grind factor and unfortunately without any splitscreen option.

The Avengers deliver great action and motivating character development, but also plenty technical issues, while it sadly feels unfinished in terms of content.

A solid, yet bland 3d platformer.

The concept is interesting, but the focus on collecting and crafting becomes monotonous too quickly, while the fights are a little rough around the edges.

The scenario feels fresh, the dialogue puzzles are the highlight of this adventure, that overall is not challenging enough.

This is a solid over-the-top oldschool shooter carnage – that is, if no bugs, shallow jokes or monotonous level design get in the way.

While the concept feels as fresh as anything and thanks to Unreal technology Albion looks better than ever, you’ll notice the age of the source material. Nonetheless it is a nice stroll down memory lane.

The 2D-action is crazy, there are lots of secrets to be discovered and Sam's humour is back to its old glory.

The carton hardware is robust, the attached game is far from it. If it wouldn’t be for the training challenges and the workshop, this could have been a disaster.

Yes, I miss a career, some races are too easy to win and in the end this hardly more than advanced arcade racing. But damn, this is fun while it lasts.

Interesting space survival that walks a tightrope between motivation and resignation with its harsh resource shortage.

Especially the artdesing in this trip to Hell will remind you of Enter The Gungeon. But while the challenge is steep the rewards are too few and take too long to achieve to keep you motivated for a longer period of time.

Typical sports game update that only slightly reworks the previous year's title - despite the dreary technology, the simulation is recommended for cycling fans. Anyone who is enthusiastic about the real tour will also have fun with it on the pad.

Technically old-fashioned adventure with real actors delivering a long forgotten trash factor. Puzzles and investigating the locations makes the trip to the past worthwhile.

You think you can ride with Age of Empires 2 into the high definition era? Think again. Instead of offering full social penetration with “like us”, “subscribe”, “watch” and “follow” the visuals should have gotten the attention this classic deserves. If you can live without online battles and the pseudo HD, here’s some advice: The gold edition from 2001 is a bargain…

Problems with control as well as AI issues make it difficult to commence tactically. But with the good weapon handling and the interesting presentation you can have decent sniping fun after all.

Tequila Works show how to inject fresh ideas into a theme as worn-out as the zombie apocalypse. The mixture of puzzles and challenging fights works extraordinarily well to make Deadlight one of the most atmospheric XBLA games of the year.
