The battle system as well as the ability mechanics are interesting, but Dragon Star Varnir seriously suffers from a lackluster presentation.

There simply is no digital adventure that can capture the unique horror of H.P. Lovecraft. The Sinking City tries hard, but ultimately finds its demise.

Codemasters delivers its best Formula One game to date.

SNK proves that it can take the fight to Mortal Kombat, Soulcalibur and Tekken. The tactical approach to the unforgiving fighting system is a breath of fresh air.

The LEGO expansion scores with a great toy world and of course everything that is great about the main game,, but lack of content as well as missing active building are quite disappointing.

Definitely better than the first expansion, even though the mission design is flawed while the paleo botany content is a bit superficially implemented.

Stacked with content, technically mainly crisp and very entertaining. The inconsistent AI aside Beenox gave Naughty Dog’s PSone classic a cool makeover which, just like 20 years ago, tries to challenge Mario Kart for the pole position.

Charming mix of action- and puzzle-adventure in an subterranean setting. While it shows off some fresh ideas the platforming needs finetuning.

If you are desperately waiting for a game that captures the spirit of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night almost to the dot, look no further. It has its flaws, but it is exactly what Koji Igarashi promised to deliver: A game from IgaVania-Fans for IgaVania fans.

While the concept with its “groundhog day of destruction” is intriguing, the technical as well as mechanical execution is not.

A neat collection of JRPG classics for Switch, a little light on extra content though.

With way more content than the similar Pokémon Go and a lot of fanservice it Wizards Unite generates a truly magical atmosphere. But the constant reminder of microtransactions as well as technical shortcomings make it difficult to stay attached.

While the basic content with its Yakuza-like mechanic, but a new interesting portagonist is still entertaining, even though it doesn’t stray too far from its roots, it is the optional DLC that leaves a bad taste.

In terms of content and mechanically identical to the previously releases Switch version, the card battles with their simple ruleset suffer only from the rather lackluster port to PC.

This is a stunner. The merger of Crypt of the NecroDancer and Legend of Zelda is a blast to play (as was to be expected) and looks like it jumped straight from the SNES into this era.

An interesting concept circling around a virtual online RPG that is hidden behind a lackluster presentation.

Like its Switch sibling roughly a year ago this is a captivating old-school RPG with an extensive turn-based battle system and stunning art design, but also quite some grind and varying quality in the storytelling for the eight protagonists.

I really would like to fall in love with Assetto Corsa Competizione. And would it be only for the driving physics, this is a dream on four wheels. But bugs (loads), half-baked features and incomprehensible design decisions leave the impression that is still an obvious beta version with a hefty price tag.

There is a lot of decent hack&slay fun to be had with Chaosbane. Nonetheless it feels bland, unfinished and in a few moments even unstructured.

The second part of Nihon Falcoms rpg saga gains momentum as a revamped civil war drama centered on the elite students of the Thor military academy.

A solid, yet bland 3d platformer.

Entertaining little timeloop thriller held back by its mechanical and storytelling limitations.

Technically not without fault and in terms of game selection questionable. But nonetheless this is a solid collection.

A competent as well as challenging tactical RPG from former Legend of Grimrock developers.

While some of the old problems still shine through, especially in the AI department, the visuals leave an “almost current” impression as the tension-level is as high as it always has been.

A decent bike alternative to Steep or SSX with randomly generated levels and challenges.

This could be a halfway decent addition to the ever-growing number of open world survival adventures. But certain design decisions like permadeath (which even From Software stayed away from) keep it from escaping mediocrity.

Observation is original and entertaining, but sometimes also quite confusing journey into deep space and the mind of an AI.
