The Enigma is a solid start to the second season of Telltale’s adventure. Great story telling, superb character development and exciting action can keep you busy for a few hours, although it remains to be seen how choices can affect future episodes and whether or not different players are able to create different jokers.

Shadows: Awakening is a fun Action RPG that does not bring anything new to the table, but manages to stay fresh and engaging due to its great character and gameplay design.

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.

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.

Omno is not flawless, but it can entertain you with its great music and simple but eventually shocking story. Don't miss it, especially if you already have Game Pass.

Darksiders Genesis looks very much like the older games in Darksiders series, and even repeats their mistakes, such as camera problems. Nevertheless, solid visual design and good music that matches greatly with the game's tempo save the day and make Darksiders Genesis a very good game, but not one of the best in the genre.

The Considering that Riders Republic is not a sports simulation and only aims to offer fun and excitement, and even though there are a lot of problems that cannot be looked over and some of them directly affect the gameplay experience, the final package can still be entertaining while you jump on different vehicles and race around the big, crowded and colorful world of the game.

Despite some changes, XCOM Chimera Squad cannot be considered a true sequel to the series, and gameplay improvements are not enough to prevent it from becoming repetitive.

The fourth installment in the Zombie Army series finally got almost everything right by tweaking all the problems and issues from the first three games. It's still not flawless, but it is what Rebellion wanted it to be; and that's being fun to play.

Timelie could be entertaining if you don't mind repetitive gameplay, but it's definitely not a good choice for everyone..

Koira excels at conveying deep, often indescribable emotions in a way that feels both accessible and profoundly moving. Combined with its stunning art direction, the game offers an incredible and memorable journey. However, when it comes to gameplay, it falls short. The mechanics lack the depth and variety needed to match the emotional and visual heights of the experience. Ultimately, Koira is a good game that is emotionally resonant and visually striking. Still, it doesn't bring anything particularly special to the table regarding gameplay.

Mix Rayman's gameplay with Ori's art style, and you have Unruly Heroes. If you are a fan of either or both of those titles, you'll definitely have a great time playing Unruly Heroes.

As a modern-day gamer, Soul Reaver Remastered might not be significant for you. But for an old-school 40-year-old gamer, it brings back memories of a golden era of gaming and legendary titles. While the remaster sparks nostalgia, it falls short of addressing the gameplay mechanics—especially in the sequel—leaving the experience somewhat dated. For those who cherished the original, the remaster is a bittersweet reminder of a time when storytelling and atmosphere were king, even if it struggles to fully modernize itself for a new generation.

Even though Cronos: The New Dawn has some flaws, like inconsistent enemy reactions, hit registration issues, and minor bugs, its challenging difficulty is central to its identity. The game's tough, isolating experience is designed to keep players on edge. While some players might find this frustrating, it's what prevents the game from being too easy and losing its core tension. Ultimately, the game is a must-play for fans of the horror genre and a homage to classics like Silent Hill 2 and Observer, offering a memorable experience for those who appreciate that style of game.

While South of Midnight pioneers in its narrative, art design, and the seamless incorporation of social challenges into its world, its gameplay, though not flawed, treads familiar ground without introducing anything new.

The Vanishing of Ethan Carter’s too much focus on story telling might prevent it from offering a true adventure experience, but nevertheless the story, atmosphere and world design is so solid that you’ll just love it.

Headlander takes on an old setting with a new formula and does it just right. The Balance between combat and puzzle-solving is quite good but the story might leave you unsatisfied, while the gameplay also gets repetitive after a few hours.

If you look at Road to the Olympics as a complete Winter Olympics game, you might be disappointed as many sports are left out. But it still offers so much fun, especially to Ski and Skateboarding fans.

The Pathless is yet another brilliant game from Giant Squid, one with great harmony between almost all of its elements that sends you on a short adventure in its unknown and strange world.

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.

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.

The first 15 minutes of Darksiders Genesis is enough to prove that it's far better than Darksiders 3, and shows why Airship Syndicate should continue to work on the series. If you are a fan of the genre, Genesis is definitely one of your top choices.

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.

The Shapeshifting Detective tries so hard to create a game that looks like movies, but it has failed to fulfill its potentials and the final product is a somehow shallow experience without much replayability values.

It is safe to say that WWE 2K19 takes the crown from its predecessor by giving another shot to the 2K Showcase and implementing several improvements in gameplay and sound design, and convinces the players to spend more time playing it; and although some issues are still remaining, the WWE 2K series has the potential to become one of the best sports series in the coming years.

Beholder 2 is an entertaining title with high replay values due to having several endings, and if you didn’t get a chance to try it on PC or Switch before, now is the best time to go for it on either PS4 or XBOX1. Be warned though, that the endings that are expecting you are gonna be some of the most dramatic ones you have ever experienced.

Unto The End is a mix of the things that you love and the things that you hate, but it's an entertaining journey nonetheless. The developers managed to create an entertaining yet challenging game, although the balance between the two is not always there.

We Were Here Forever is a great choice if you wish to spend some quality time at home with a friend. An atmospheric, puzzle-oriented and challenging co-op experience that will last for hours and never stops to entertain.

Gameplay-wise, MotoGP 19 is a success as it offers tons of different modes and contents, but visuals-wise, it could have done a lot better. Better visuals mixed with exciting commentary could have made MotoGP 19 one of the best moto racing titles in recent years, but eventually it settles to only entertain the really hardcore fans of the genre.

MotoGP 20 simply cannot be considered a new game, not even a big update, as it doesn't add much to the 2019 version, and although the gameplay matured through the years, the 2020 version of the game doesn't offer enough new content to justify its price tag.

Trials of Mana is a beautifully simple remake that might not be something that can attract modern-day gamers, but will definitely be a great title for the fans of the previous versions.

Assassin's Creed Mirage takes the series back to where it all began, and while it feels great to take a break from more and more complex RPG gameplay that we've seen in the past few entries, it is not necessarily a step forward for the series as the game becomes too boring too fast. Mirage is still a great action adventure, but maybe a balance between Role Playing gameplay and linear story telling would be what this series need to find its path again.

All in all, Planet Coaster 2 is a massive improvement over its predecessor, and new additions such as the Water Park make it a more complete package. It’s a great experience for fans of the city-builder and simulation genre, but the steep learning curve and overall complexity of the gameplay will probably push away the more casual players.

Despite numerous efforts and innovations, FC 25 remains in the shadow of FIFA’s golden era. While promising new features like FC IQ and AI Behavior signal progress, the past few years have been challenging. The path ahead for the EA Sports FC series looks even more difficult as it strives to recapture the glory of its predecessor.

Ancient Gods is not necessarily a bad expansion pack, but the original DOOM Eternal was so good and even small changes in the wrong direction can hurt the experience. In Ancient Gods case, the uneven difficulty and confusing story seem to be those wrong changes that topple DOOM Eternal from the top a little bit.

As an adventure game Roki doesn't have much repeatability values, and some modern gamers might ignore it due to its 20$ price tag, but if you are willing to spend around 10 hours solving puzzles and stuff, Roki is probably a very good option for you.

WWE 2K22 manages to polish a lot of issues from the previous game, but it’s still not quite there yet. The good thing though is that it seems they put the first stone right, and the future of the series could be bright.

With some huge visual improvements, the remastered version of Saints Row 3 is one of the best remasters in the current generation, period.

Although WRC 10 is not as big a step forward as WRC 9 was, it still offers a lot of improvements. The 50th anniversary mode is also a very welcomed addition and mixed with the return of many legendary drivers, the final package is more or less exactly what Rally fans would want in a game.

Disney’s Epic Mickey Rebrushed is full of new ideas and innovations and offers an interesting story in a dark fantasy world that is nothing like our perception of Disney’s world. The use of a paintbrush and other mechanics related to it in gameplay make Epic Mickey a very unique platformer experience, but issues such as inconsistent controls, bad camera, and repetitive missions eventually prevent it from becoming one of the best in the genre.

Although Immortals Fenyx Rising seems like a Breath of the Wild clone, it's done so well that gives you a great time, and even fill the gap for those who don't own a Nintendo Switch and can't play the Zelda series.

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.

Imperator: Rome is a classic, old school strategy that offers a gameplay so deep that only professional strategy players might have a chance with it. If you are a fan and you are dying for a solid strategy title like good old days, this is what you've been waiting for.

Although Mortal Shell suffers from several design issues, and although it seems a lot like the Souls series, its solid combat system eventually saves the day, making it an exciting, yet short, Action RPG that will probably be worth your while.

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.

Although Mutazione seems like a journey full of exciting adventures, the bad execution of its ideas led to a very boring adventure experience.

If you look at Mafia: Definitive Edition as an action adventure game that released in 2020, you can have some great moments with it, although it's not flawless, but if you have already experience the original Mafia game back in 2002, you'll probably feel that something is missing. The Definitive Edition looks much, much better visually and packs some cool new gameplay mechanics, but it is just not the good old Mafia that everyone fell in love with.

Still the best Basketball simulation game on the market, NBA 2K22 does good but not enough to break into the 9th generation of gaming hardware as the PS5 version of the game is only superior to its PS4 counterpart in terms of visuals, and the RPG-like My Career mode and heavy reliance on microtransactions keep dragging it down.

Control AWE may not be a true and fully fledged DLC, but it won't disappoint. There are some overly challenging moments here and there, and some more cut-scenes would have helped, but AWE is still a better DLC than Foundation overall, and a great gift for the fans of Alan Wake.

Stay Human is a worthy sequel to the original version of Dying Light, one that’s improved excessively in many ways. The Parkour part of the gameplay is especially a great fit, mixed with huge environments and solid level design. If you liked the last game, you’ll definitely find a lot more to enjoy here, but even if you never played Dying Light before, the 2nd version still worth both your time and money.

The new title from infamous Team17 is an standard survival game that manages to entertain, even though it cannot add anything new to the genre.

Neo Cab is very similar to story-based indie titles, but the difference is that it is telling its story way better, and If the gameplay had more depth or if the characters had voice, it could have become an absolute hit.

It is safe to say that there is no other title in the history of video games that offers a similar experience and atmosphere to Heaven's Vault, but the fact that there is no voice acting in a game that relies so heavily on dialogues and conversations, is a huge mistake that costs Heaven's Vault greatly.

Darkest Dungeon II offers a unique and complex experience, with many hours of gameplay and exploration. However, it demands extreme patience, as its steep learning curve may prove challenging for many casual gamers.

Heading Out feels like a vast ocean that is only an inch deep, introducing tons of exciting gameplay elements without developing them enough. It's still a decent game and offers a lot of quality when it comes to art design and story telling, but eventually fails to live up to its massive potential.

12 Minutes is a very unique experience with one of a kind art design, solid story and innovative gameplay, and while the time loop mechanism makes some parts of the gameplay repetitive, the final package still feels new, fresh and entertaining.

The HD Remaster of Shin Migami Tensi III offers a lot of fun, probably paving the way for more games from the series to come to the new generation. That said, no matter how much we love revisiting this beautiful adventure, the pricing and the choice of content of this remaster is just outrageous.

Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is Gearbox’s most complete game in this genre; with it diverse gameplay enough to keep you busy for a good amount of time. Whether you are a Borderlands fan or not, Tiny Tina deserves a shot.

As a DLC, The Heist can be considered a good title, though it could have been better. The Heist offers just enough to engage and keep the players thirsty for the next two DLCs.

F1 Manager 2023 significantly improves on the solid foundations of the previous game, offering one of the best management simulators currently on the market.

After so much anticipation, Watch Dogs: Legion is finally here, failing to impress. Almost every single problem that prevented the two previous versions from reaching their full potential is still there, and the ability to play as all NPCs added even more issues to the game. Yes, the world is beautiful and you have all the freedom that you want, but as a game, Watch Dogs Legion is shallow and suffers from poor level and character design. A strong contender for the most disappointing game of the year.

7th Sector is around 3 hours of not so fun experience; one that made lots of mistakes in designing puzzles, levels, and its narrative.

As nostalgic as Tomb Raider I–III Remastered might be for some fans, the fact is that the outdated gameplay mechanisms have no appeal to modern-day gamers, no matter how polished and good-looking the final product is.

EA Sports FC 24 lacks identity and innovation and is stuck between a fun arcade football game and a deep simulation, eventually failing to deliver for fans of either style. EA is facing no competition for its Football game at the moment and given the commercial success of the game, the future seems darker than ever.

We. The Revolution is an entertaining and unique experience, and if not for some shortcomings in the final act and some bad design decisions, it could have easily reached its full potential.

Unruly Heroes takes advantage of a popular and complicated story, simplify and mix it with a solid artistic design, throw in a gameplay full of content but without any notable innovations, and finally creates a pleasant experience for almost any type of gamer.

Descenders can be entertaining for a few hours and although some of its mechanics such as controls and physics are sub-par compared to other games in the genre, it still offers enough cool gameplay moments to be considered an okay indie game.

Super Cane Magic ZERO is one of the strangest games I have ever played, and I strongly recommend it to everyone. Humor, love for sweets and hatred for vegetables, along with its wonderful artistic design are things that you just can't ignore easily.

If you are not a Musou fan, then One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 is unlikely to convince you to be one, as it doesn't add anything specific to the genre. That said, it can he considered a good game when compared to other games in the exact same genre, and especially the fans of the One Piece anime will probably enjoy it.

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.

Ys: Memories of Celceta can't quite compete with the heavyweights of the genre, mainly because of it's shallow story, but still offers enough entertainment through its gameplay to be considered a decent experience.

Exploring a different aspect of the Star Wars world, Ubisoft and Massive Studios did a decent job in taking a more open-world approach and proving that the Star Wars universe still has a massive potential for the future, and more importantly, Ubisoft can still publish good games.

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.

Gran Turismo Sport takes a different path from the series but despite some issues and glitches along the way, it’s still one of the most important games in the Racing genre. With some more features and a complete single player mode, GT Sport could have easily competed with others, but it still provides a wonderful online experience for those who are looking for exciting races.

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.

Even though Evil Genius 2 has not developed that much in terms of gameplay and story, the visual improvements are so good that can actually lift the game and fully satisfy the hardcore fans of Base Building genre.

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.

Milestone proves once more that when it comes to Monocycle Racing, they are the one to beat, as RIDE 5 stands head and shoulders above everything else in this genre and sets its own standards.

Patapon 1+2 Replay is a fun and nostalgic return to a beloved series. While it doesn’t introduce anything new to the franchise or the rhythm-strategy genre, and carries over several of the original games’ shortcomings, it still manages to deliver over 40 hours of engaging, rhythm-based action, enriched with light strategy and RPG elements.

The Crew Motorfest has its own share of issues, and is not as ambitious and innovative as the first two games in the series either, but it has matured enough to offer a complete driving experience and even surpass its mentor, the Horizon series, in some areas.

Ghostwire: Tokyo is neither a failure nor a huge success, as it fails to offer anything new in terms of story telling, gameplay or world design, but it can still be an entertaining action adventure.

Ruiner features an extremely fun and exciting combat alongside various weapon types, satisfying boss fights and tons of other stuff. But all in all, it is the games incredibly engaging atmosphere that makes the difference.

Attack on Titan 2 is not necessarily a bad game, but it's not the type of game that typical hack and slash fans enjoy. However, Manga fans and Manga newcomers will definitely find something here.

Ghost of a Tale is heavily influenced by the Souls series, and one would wonder why? It definitely suffers from tons of issues and technical difficulties, and unless you are a hardocre Stealth fan, you'll probably have a hard time enjoying its beautiful (but full of technical issues) visuals and appealing (but full of cliches) story.

Even tho comparing Chernobylite with titles like Metro and STALKER seems inevitable, in order to really feel and connect with Chernobylite you'll have to judge it on its own merits. Chernobylite is not a 1st person shooter and if you expect action packed gameplay with tons of firework from it you will be disappointed. But if you are looking for an atmospheric adventure survival game where every choice makes a difference, Chernobylite will definitely satisfy you.

Samurai Warriors 5 tells a beautiful story of an important historical event, and even though some old and familiar issues are still here, the final package is an entertaining Mosou style game.

Screamer is chaotic in the best way, and it works. Arcade racing, cyberpunk cel-shaded visuals, anime flair, a wild story, and explosive car combat all collide to create one of the boldest reboots in years. If you want pure speed, nonstop action, and something that breaks the mold, Screamer delivers.

The first part of Lost Records does a great job of building anticipation for the second, thanks to its well-written characters and slow-paced yet engaging story. While there are some issues, both big and small, that need to be addressed, the overall experience remains promising.

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.

The new release of Layers of Fear is one of the best and most complete packages in the horror genre; one that improves the first game substantially and takes its story further forward with new DLCs. More work could have been done on the second game, nevertheless, this package is the best way to experience the whole franchise and is definitely recommended to any fan of the genre.

There is no denying that A Total War Saga: Troy is suffering from numerous problems, as the formula that started with Rome 2 and reached its full potential with Warhammer 2 is starting to show its age, and proves that it is time for major changes in the core mechanisms of the series. All that said, Troy is still an entertaining experience if you are a hardcore strategy fan and can keep you engaged for many, many hours.

Doraemon Story of Seasons is a good choice for those who no longer have much time for video games, and despite some gameplay issues, it’s so well designed that can easily entertain almost anyone.

Final Battle's content might not justify it's price tag, yet it has enough to offer to keep fans of the Attack on Titan series happy. It's not the best DLC ever, but it's not a bad one either. It's just right.

The Gardens Between is a beautiful and innovative journey to the memories; memories of friendship and kindness that will make you wonder. If only the journey was not so short, it could've been one of the best experiences you'll ever have.

Despite some issues, Ion Fury is one the best choices for classic FPS fans, especially if played on PC.

The Radical Dreamers Edition is not the best remaster that Chrono Cross could have received, but nevertheless being able to try one of the most important JRPG titles of all time in a better form and on modern platforms is something that the fans of the genre would definitely enjoy.
