The Bunker is a great addition to the Amnesia series and shows that Frictional Games is on the right path, and even though it doesn’t offer as much quality as the very first game, it’s still an atmospheric survival horror and is the best in the genre this year.

Rime heavily relies on lots of different elements from other successful action titles and fails to add any notable innovation to those elements. Nevertheless, if you are looking for an artistic and relaxing experience with great soundtracks, Rime would be a very good option.

Chronos: Before the Ashes has a slow tempo and challenging combat, and it can serve greatly as a workshop for those who are looking to get into the Souls series.

YIIK: A Postmodern RPG is huge achievement for Ackk Studios, it is so much better than their previous title, and maybe a little more attention to combat system and controls could’ve even made it one of the best indie titles in years. Nevertheless, A Postmodern RPG is a fun game that will probably worth your time and money.

Blooper Studio's attempt to take advantage of the cyberpunk genre's hype created by Cyberpunk 2077 neither fails nor pays off, as Observer: System Redux is mediocre adventure game that can't really challenge the new generation consoles.

Giga Wrecker Alt is neither revolutionary nor without issues, and in fact is suffering from some obvious problems, but at the same time it offers a challenging and entertaining experience mixed with great story and interesting characters. With Giga Wrecker Alt, Game Freak showed that one of the most important things is to believe in your team, and to give them time and space to develop their ideas.

More than halfway through the story of Life is Strange 2, and it seems that the series story is still off the track. Wastelands episode offers the same solid music and tempo that we expected, but nothing more, and the only reason it can be considered a good episode is because of the way it concluded and opened up a huge potential for the next episode.

With the introduction of new enemies and focusing more on Bruce Wayne character, the second episode of The Enemy Within tries to develop characters relationships and take the story to a new direction. However, you are still playing what developers want and no matter what you do, you can’t have an impact on the outcome of the story.

Sparklite is an appealing rouge-like action adventure that can entertain you for a few hours. If it wasn’t a bit short and if the developers gave it more development time, it could have become a AAA title and a main player in its genre.

Untitled Goose Game is a very simple yet entertaining experience that can be wrapped up in less than an hour. If you are looking for a quiet and relaxing one hour experience, it can be a good option for you. But if you are looking to get more engaged in action, look elsewhere.

One thing is guaranteed in Sundered, You will die lots and lots and lots of times! But each time you will come back stronger than before. Sundered is a Fast-Paced Metroidvania 2D Action Adventure that throws you in a hell and challenge you to survive and if you are a hardcore action platformer player, you’ll definitely enjoy it even though it suffers from some serious technical issues.

FBC: Firebreak is fast-paced, action-packed, and undeniably fun, but also unfinished. Remedy’s first foray into online multiplayer shows real promise, with a significant investment of resources evident in its core design. However, in its current state, FBC falls short of delivering a complete multiplayer experience, lacking the depth and polish expected from a fully realized title. Still, the foundation is strong, and with the right support, it has the potential to evolve into a standout online FPS, and possibly the start of an exciting new franchise.

Don’t Stop Believin’ is a good conclusion for Guardians of the Galaxy series, even though it still carries almost all issues from the previous episodes. In the end, Guardians of the Galaxy could have become one the best Telltale games if its action and adventure aspects were as good as its story and character development.

Black Ops 7 delivers a rollercoaster ride of the franchise’s recent highs and lows. Without the campaign, it could almost be considered a strong addition to the series. But judging the story mode on its own paints a very different picture. Even with its weakest campaign to date, the game still offers enjoyable multiplayer and an excellent Zombies experience, leaving the overall product balanced right on the borderline. Activision’s willingness to listen to fans and adjust various aspects shows the team is moving in the right direction, if only the narrative hadn’t turned out so poorly.

MotoGP 23 is not a game for everybody, and even the fans of arcade or semi-arcade racing will probably have a hard time enjoying it, even though there are improvements compared to last year's release, it still doesn't offer enough even for the simulation fans to jump on it right away.

Wolfenstein: Youngblood is a hit and miss co-op experience, doing well in some areas and failing in others, weak AI being the most important of them. On the good side, improved level design and gun play help to save the day. In the end, if you can try the co-op experience with a real person, go for it. Otherwise, you probably want to stay away from it.

The Bard's Tale IV is a mixed potion that can offer a very fun gameplay experience as well as seriously damaging your nerves. It offers more than 30 hours of gameplay for just 35 dollars, and when all elements are working, it can be fun and enjoyable. But then technical issues kick in and along with a very strange save mechanism, ruin your day! The Bard' Tale IV is surely a charismatic title and if you can cope with its flaws, you can have great fun; but it still has a lot of issues to address in order to be considered one of the elite titles of the genre.

The new version of Rise of the Triad is a good remaster but haven’t necessarily made the original game better in any meaningful way.

Kao the Kangaroo might be a solid reboot that walks you down the memory lane for a few hours, but it won't be an experience that stays with you for a long time, just like any other game in this franchise.

Assetto Corsa Competizione offers solid gameplay and accurate car handling, and sadly that's almost the only thing it can offer. The PS4 port is full of bugs and technical issues, and the career mode can use some tweaking as well. All in all, it's obviously not a perfect racing game, but if you are really into cars and have nothing more on your hands to play with, it worth a shot.

Milestone's strategy of developing moto racers after moto racers, and focusing on quantity rather than quality, seems to have shut the innovation door on them; and although Ride 3 is definitely a better title than the previous Milestone releases, it still has a long way to go to be considered an elite racing title.

Looking at and playing through FIFA 18, you’ll always have mixed feelings about it. The game is still very fun, but there’s almost zero improvements from the last year’s release. FIFA needs new blood, and needs it now, as PES is improving fast.

Despite huge changes, Earth Defence Force: Iron Rain remains loyal to EDF roots, and this is great news for the fans of the series. On the other hand, the graphical upgrades help to convince new players to join up as well. Iron Rain still needs improvements to be considered an elite action title, but it is arguably the best EDF ever made.

Outlast Trials tries to mix its traditional gameplay with online elements, and the result is neither revolutionary nor entertaining, making it more of a spin-off to the original series rather than a cornerstone for future releases.

King Arthur: Legion IX tries to implement Knight’s Tale’s successful formula in a more compact format, resulting in a hit and miss Tactical RPG experience that shines in areas such as turn-based combat and art design but comes up short in story, sound design, and voice acting.

Resident Evil 3 remake is not necessarily bad, but it is absolutely disappointing. Maybe the bar set by RE2 remake was too high, but there is no denying that RE3 remake is not what it should have been. The balance between action and puzzles is gone and RE3 focuses too much on being an action game. Nemesis also appears very briefly, which is a huge disappointment. RE3 is not a bad game, but it's not a classic Resident Evil either.

Despite being stuck in development hell for years, Wrath: Aeon of Ruin more or less achieves what it meant to and poses itself as a history course for the FPS genre by taking the older gamers to the past and bringing the past to the newer gamers.

Amnesia: Rebirth carries you until the end with its beautiful story, and even though its level design is not the best and the game gets repetitive in its second half, it is still an enjoyable experience worth your time and money.

RAD offers a different post apocalyptic experience, and it's colorful, cell-shade visuals mixed with great 80s electronic music are things that make it unique when compared to titles like Fallout or Wasteland. On the negatives side, you have to deal with its unbalanced difficulty and repetitive gameplay; but in general, you'll probably have a good time with Rad.

DESYNC is fast-paced and challenging and if you are a fan of classic shooters like doom, you’ll probably enjoy it. The visuals can get repetitive quickly, and gameplay doesn’t add anything new to what we’ve already seen. But fast-paced and very challenging action, mixed with tons of different enemies and a great soundtrack, are enough to keep fans of the genre busy for a while.

In the end, Assassins Creed 3 is one of the best remakes of this generation, and although changing gameplay mechanics in a remake is not something usual, Ubisoft's decision to take this risk pays off.

Infliction: Extended Cut is basically an upgraded version of Infliction that was released back in 2018. There are lots of new content in the new version such is new endings, new challenges and tweaked puzzles. The gameplay and engaging atmosphere are still as good and offer one of the most horrifying experiences ever.

While Ghost Warrior Contracts is nothing extraordinary and does not evolve the genre in any particular way, it still offers a pleasant experience to both fans of the series and the genre.

You can feel Sega's spirit everywhere in this arcade Olympics simulator, and even though the 18 different included sports does not offer much gameplay depth, it's still super fun to play especially if you can hook up with some other players online.

The latest entry in the Alien series tries a new formula by combining an isometric camera and strategy elements, and even though the gameplay part of the game is entertaining and engaging, the repetitive missions, flat story, and technical issues prevent it from reaching its full potential.

Marvel's Avengers, as a package that tries to offer solid single-player action and durable multi-player experience, is a failure at its current state. It's not necessarily a bad game and it's actually fun and entertaining to interact with many of the super heroes from the Marvel's universe, but the final product can't keep up with the expectations.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIV is the perfect choice for the fans of this epic historical event, but it's not a perfect choice for the fans of turn based strategies. Gameplay flaws are here and there, and some mechanics are not deep enough, making it not a very strong contender in the genre. However, console players can still enjoy it given the fact that there are not many options available on the consoles in this genre.

Conan Unconquered is a unique title in the strategy genre, but either due to limited budget or lack of time, the developers failed to reach the full potential of their ideas. Conan has the potential to become one of the best strategies in the market, and maybe developers can reach that potential through future updates, but at its current state, Conan Unconquered might not be the best option for the fans of the genre.

If not for some serious technical issues, Elex would have become one of the best Role Playing titles of this year. Yet its dark and compelling story along with huge world full of different stuff to do will surely make it worthy of some of your hours.

Pathologic 2 returns with its engaging and mysterious story, and makes progress in translation and menu design as well, but in technical terms the same old issues are obvious. Maybe these issues will be addressed in the future episodes, but since then, get ready to come across some weird ones, while enjoying its wonderful storytelling style.

Tower 57 reminds you of good old Pixel Art days, priced at 11.99$ only, and even though it’s pretty short, will still bring you some real fun.

Caroline Marshall’s first independent project may not have panned out exactly as planned, but it shows enough potential in its story telling to convince some to give it a try, and if you already own a Game Pass subscription then you are just investing your time, which will probably worth it.

198X is a good mixture of clones of older games, and the fact that it focuses on a teenager's life and how identity crisis can affect that life really pays off in the end, as this whole concept makes it a unique experience. The developers though seem to lack experience to put the final touches in the right place, and that's the only reason 198X is not as good as other top indie titles of 2019.

Project Warlock tries to revive the memory of classic shooters, and does a great job at that, but half-way along the way, it gets repetitive and ultimately fails to be a superb shooter.

The remastered version of Darksiders for Nintendo Switch is a journey to the end of the world, and at the same time a journey back to what we already experienced in the series, and expected that some of them would improve. The gameplay is exactly the same as before, with all the pros and cons, and even the visuals are not worthy of a remastered title. All in all, the remastered version of Darksiders is nothing more than a simple port for the Switch platform.

Tropico 6 might not be the revolution that the series need, but dealing with different political streams, problems and challenges that the residents of your city face, and building a beautiful city, are more than enough to entertain you for hours.

Greedfall, the latest release from Spiders, reminds you of some of the best classic RPGs, but it fails when it comes to mixing all those classic gameplay mechanics with new and modern ones. Some very good RPG elements and great story telling are there to enjoy from, but some annoying issues including technical problems, weak combat system and the game's protagonist character design are also there to ruin your joy. In the end, Greedfall can be considered a good RPG, especially for the old school fans, but it is certainly not for everybody.

Swords & Soldiers 2 aims to entertain, and achieves that by utilizing very simple gameplay mechanics and rather short levels. It focuses too much on story telling though, which affects the gameplay experience a little bit. In the end, Swords & Soldiers 2 is a simple and fun strategy title, and nothing more.

If you are an arcade-style racing fan, Rims Racing is not for you, period. But if you are a motorcycle nut who enjoys racing simulation you will have lots of fun with Rims Racing's super deep career mode and detailed design of its motorcycles. Be warned though that on the technical side there are tons of issues, and either wait for patch updates or expect some major frame rate drops to the point of breaking the gameplay.

As an open world action RPG, Kakarot doesn’t have much to offer compared to the heavyweights of the genre, but it wouldn’t matter to the fans of Dragon Ball Z as the game is extremely loyal to Dragon Ball roots.

Like any other game by Hidetaka Suehiro, The Good Life is a unique experience with simple yet engaging gameplay and solid story telling, offering a few hours of pure meditation.

The Medium is a game with great potential and bad execution, as its issues and problems such as limited gameplay, easy puzzles and bad camera work eventually overtake its great story telling and engaging atmosphere.

Metro Exodus: Complete Edition can cut both ways, and while it's appealing to some of the older fans of the series, it can't keep everybody happy. The extraordinary atmosphere and the great story however may be enough to give it a try.

Legacy of the First Blade is pretty short, lacks content and ends just when it starts to get exciting, and unless you are a die-hard fan of the series, I suggest you to wait until the release of the next DLC to see if it's worth the shot.

The Surge takes the Dark Souls series formula and throws it into a sci-fi setting. And while it suffers from poor narration, a huge and interesting world combined with a fresh and innovative combat system prove to be more than enough to consider it a success. If you are up for a Souls-like challenge in a sci-fi world, The Surge is a great choice.

Eternal Threads redefines story-telling when it comes to time travel concept; and while it's not necessarily a bad game, it doesn't offer enough in terms of gameplay or visuals to be considered a memorable experience.

Although Red Faction Guerrilla did almost nothing to polish the last gen version issues, the 30-dollar price and upgraded visuals may very well be worth it to once again take on the red planet and discover its secrets.

The core mechanics of 8 Bit Invaders are solid and reminds you of classic RTS titles like StarCraft and C&C, but those mechanics are not developed enough which causes the end product to be a little shallow yet accessible to beginner RTS fans.

Draugen's engaging story, wonderful characters, solid voice acting and beautiful environments could have made it an unforgettable experience, only if the developers have pushed harder through some limits and answered more story-related questions.

The Artful Escape feels like a novel written by a musician, and takes the music and electric guitar fans to a beautiful but not so perfect journey.

Returning to the roots of the series, Contra Operation Galuga offers an entertaining experience for dedicated fans. However, it may lack innovation and fail to introduce fresh elements to captivate a broader audience.

Rally Adventure may shine when it comes to visuals and pure entertainment, but as an expansion pack for the glorious Forza Horizon 5, you’d expect a much more comprehensive package. The substandard design of the roads and the nonexistence of official Rally rules are the main reasons why Rally Adventure is far behind the competition and it seems that Playground’s new policy is dragging the Forza series into a repetitive cycle.

Journey to the Savage Planet takes around 10 to 12 hours to complete, and you'll come across some neat gameplay ideas along the way, although nothing is that special.

Aegis Defenders tries to provide a great experience with its pixel art visuals and tower defense mechanisms, and although some parts of gameplay are not polished enough, solid tower defense experience alone will worth your time.

Tribes of Midgard feels adventurous and entertaining, and while the Endless mode is nothing special, the Saga section of the game carries the weight on its own and eventually delivers, even though some annoying bugs hurt the overall experience.

Although there is not much improvements comparing to the previous DLC, Turf Wars is still a solid action-adventure due to its core gameplay mechanics, and plays an important role in laying the ground for Spider-Man: Silver Lining.

Lego 2K Drive is sure fun to play, but paying the full price for a game that doesn't exactly follow industry standards when it comes to season pass content and in-game purchases might not be a very good idea.

If you are looking for a Walking Simulator with a great story and lots of innovations, The Signifier might be a good option for you. A game that will be one of your most unique experiences ever even though it's suffering from some fundamental issues.

Hell is Us thrives on exploration, offering a world that feels mysterious, untamed, and rewarding to uncover. By stripping away waypoints and traditional maps, the game encourages players to navigate by instinct and curiosity, making every discovery feel personal and earned. Its atmosphere pulls you in from the very first moments, and the sense of isolation amplifies the thrill of finding your own path. Unfortunately, the combat lacks the same depth and polish, leaving exploration as the true centerpiece of the experience, an aspect that will deeply resonate with discovery-driven players, even if it may not captivate everyone.

Styx: Shards of Darkness could have been a big hit in the stealth genre if not for its few AI, control and level-design flaws. Still, the whole package is so fun, unique and charming that stealth fans will definitely enjoy it.

Tales From Off-Peak City is full of memorable characters and interesting dialogues and uses your sense of curiosity to persuade you to continue through the story, and then leaves you with no answers; and it's yet to be seen how the story will be continued in the next chapters of the game.

There is no denying that Sniper Elite 5 is the best game yet by Rebellion and the most complete entry in the series, but could it take the franchise to the next level and transform it from a mediocre experience to a top of the bar shooter? The answer is probably no.

Even with open world gameplay which is a nice addition to the series, Dynasty Warriors 9 is still far from what it wants to be. Positive changes are there, but they are not enough to convince new players. However, fans of the series will have a great time playing it.

Tannenberg is a good FPS in general that has things to say in World War 1's not so busy market, and it can even satisfy fans of realistic shooters too. However, some technical and design issues prevent the game from reaching its full potential.

At the moment, God Eater 3 is the best option for the fans of the genre, and while some control and graphical issues are here and there, the gameplay is solid and the multiplayer section is very entertaining.

Chorus is full of great ideas that some are executed properly and some are not, and while the visuals look solid, they aren’t exactly “new generation”, and eventually prevent the game from being a hit.

Although Mafia 2: Definitive Edition is full of bugs and glitches and the gameplay feels a bit dated, it is still a fun experience especially for the fans of the series, and as soon as updates and patches start to roll out, we can expect a much more stable game.

Project CARS 3 is good, but not good enough to compete with the likes of GRiD or Forza Horizon. The path chosen by Slightly Mad studios for the third version of the game is full bumps that divert the whole series from being pioneers of the semi-simulation genre to an average racing game.

No matter how hard Typoman tries, it’ll always be remembered as a Limbo clone. Puzzles are fun at first and visuals and audio design are good enough, but that doesn’t change the fact that Typoman has nothing new to offer.

Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions offers a fast-paced gameplay experience with a decent amount of customization, but an overall lack of content and innovation drags it down into a repetitive cycle and eventually prevents it from breaking away from mediocrity.

Despite a good story, eye-catching art design and solid combat, Omensight has suffered from very poor controls, and there are minor issues which can affect the gameplay. All in all, Omensight is a good game, and it might be worth a shot.

Conan Exiles is dated and full of bugs, but it's also very fun due to a good story and huge amount of contents, and if you can overlook its many technical issues, you might end up having a great time playing it.

After so many years of development, Final Fantasy XV is not what I expected it to be. The universe is immense and beautiful and the characters are just fine. But the story is short and disappointing and the gameplay suffers from lack of depth. FFXV is a good game, but it can never bring the former glories back to the series.

Although Fallen Tree Games is a small studio who mostly focused on mobile games until now, they managed to develop a great title using ideas and mechanisms that used to entertain us a lot, and if not for a few shortcomings here and there (probably because of budget limits) it could have done even better.

Deliver us the Moon is a visual and auditory masterclass with an atmosphere comparable only to Hollywood movies, and if you can close your eyes on some of its gameplay design problems, you'll have a great adventure on the planet moon.

By putting players in the role of a snake, Snake Pass delivers a warm, charming and colorful adventure. The gameplay is unique and the controls are very original though a little difficult to get used to. Snake pass might be short and challenging through the end, but it’s an experience that you won’t forget any time soon.

Just like any other Telltale game, Guardians of the Galaxy is a great adaptation. It suffers from some minor technical and gameplay issues, but strong story, high replay value, and marvelous sound design and music easily overcome those shortcomings.

Even though Blackwood Crossing is very short and full of bugs, it narrates a wonderful story that touches your heart and soul. You cannot find another experience close to this one.

FAIRY TAIL is a good experience as long as you are a fan of the anime series. It offers an interesting combat system and enough challenges to keeps those who are already in love with the anime engaged, but if you approach it as a typical RPG player you'll probably have a hard time finding a connection, as it is less deep and complicated than your average RPG game.

The first expansion pack for Assassin's Creed Valhalla can cut both ways, as good visuals, great music and deep gameplay on one side and repetitive game design, shallow story and weak character design on the other cancel each other out.

Despite it’s wonderful art style, great soundtrack and beautiful story, Memoranda throws a great number of illogical puzzles at you; and that’s what ruins a point and click adventure game.
