By putting players in the role of a snake, Snake Pass delivers a warm, charming and colorful adventure.

Dawn of Man is a top quality, challenging city-building simulator that is a must have for the fans of the genre, even though they are a rare bread these days.

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers is a solid Soulslike that builds on FromSoftware’s proven formula while introducing a few fresh ideas of its own.

While it's always exciting for the fans to see new version of their beloved games developed with modern standards, unfortunately this is not the case for every game, and when we look back we realize that some games just don't fit the profile.

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.

Skyrim’s 10th anniversary edition is a rich and polished package, offering over hundred hours of top class RPG experience. If you never got the chance to play it back in 7th generation, now is the best time to do it.

Judging SLEEP AWAKE mainly comes down to what you expect from it. Those searching for a horror action game built around complex mechanics, demanding combat, or deep stealth systems are likely to be left unsatisfied. SLEEP AWAKE is not interested in traditional gameplay conventions; instead, it positions itself as an interactive experience—one that prioritizes atmosphere and audiovisual expression over mechanical depth.

The third entry in Orcs Must Die! series is an incomplete sequel that lacks new, innovative content, but nevertheless it's still entertaining and addictive.

Battlefield V is exactly what you expect from a Battlefield title, and nothing more. A mediocre single-player campaign, mixed with a solid multiplayer and superior visuals and sound design. But the problem is that there's no notable improvements from the previous version, and the game is buggy and incomplete. Maybe future updates and DLCs will solve everything, but at its current state, Battlefield V is just another Battlefield title.

Aside from breath-taking visuals, the campaign mode of Vanguard doesn’t have much to say, as it’s the standard short and sweet Call of Duty campaign that we’ve known for years, but when it comes to multiplayer Vanguard is a beast, offering the most content than any other COD game before with some top notch map design and super smooth gameplay.

After so many years, Crytek have finally managed to present the Crysis series on consoles in an appropriate way and as close as possible to the PC experience, but be warned that the dated AI and level design take some of its former glory away.

Rules episode develops the brother’s relationship as much as it can, and gives the players so much freedom when it comes to choices.

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.

At its current state, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is practically crippled by tons of bugs and technical issues. Do we care? Absolutely not! S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is a majestic return to the brutal and unforgiving world of Chernobyl; it’s deep, complex, insanely atmospheric, and exactly what a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. fan would want from a sequel. It’s a miracle that GCS Game World managed to release the game in the first place given the ongoing war in Ukraine, and the technical issues are something that will be eventually ironed out. What matters is the strong core gameplay, stunning visuals, and exceptional setting and atmosphere. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is not a game for the typical first-person shooter fan; you have to feel it, absorb it, and live it. Happy hunting Stalker.

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.

The best way to describe Pathologic 2 is to imagine a parallel world where Tarkovsky is a video game maker. Pathologic 2 shows a world on the verge of annihilation, and a hero who is looking for redemption on a dark path.

Arcade Paradise is a very unique game built for a very unique audience, and the fact that it can't keep a steady gameplay rhythm throughout makes it even more unlikely to please just any body. But for those who grew up when Arcade machines were dominating the entertainment industry, it will be a great experience to run and develop an Arcade store.

Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree is an exciting roguelite action game filled with flashy spells, sword combos, and diverse characters brought to life with strong voice acting. Its colorful maps and fast-paced battles are enjoyable, but the game clearly isn’t built for two players; most mechanics fall on one person, leaving the other with little to do. Heavy reliance on luck and random card draws, along with a confusing upgrade system, hold it back. In the end, it’s a fast and stylish single-player roguelite that struggles to leave a lasting impression.

Switching from 2D perspective to 3D doesn't affect Disgaea 6 that much, as it pretty much feels the same and it can be both good and bad. Good for the original fans of the series but bad as it shows lack of development throughout the years.

My Time at Portia is a decent title in the life simulation genre, and while it brings nothing new to the table, its huge amount of content and addictive gameplay will surely satisfy most of its fans.

Who Needs You? Is definitely the worst episode in the Guardians of the Galaxy series. There is no progress in the story and most of the time, you’ll experience repetitive and predictable events happening in the same locations. The only positive to look forward to is the ending that can affect the future episodes for good.

The 6th installment in the Far Cry series has nothing very new to say, as it continues to build on a successful formula that keeps the fans happy and willing to come back for more.

Star Ocean First Departure R is a valuable title that defies time and shows that with deep enough gameplay, dated visuals can not prevent a game from being entertaining.

In Pathfinder: Kingmaker, you can see the footprints of many great names in the video games industry, but it seems that the main development team was neither able nor experienced enough to execute the game’s ideas and potentials in a right way, and even if you don’t take its many technical issues into consideration, Pathfinder: Kingmaker is still far from a proper CRPG.

A spiritual successor to Banjo-Kazooie, Yooka-Laylee is exactly what it is trying to be. It suffers from few flaws like poor camera and very unstable frame-rate, and it doesn’t add anything new to the platformer genre. But a lot of gameplay mechanics, good graphics, and amazing sound make it enjoyable.

Years after the release of the first Ninja Gaiden game, it's core gameplay mechanisms and level design still seem fresh and satisfying. The Master Collection puts together Sigma, Sigma 2 and Razor's Edge games in a thrilling Hack and Slash package that the fans of the genre just can't miss. Ryu Hayabusa is back; fast as a lightning bolt and sharp as a dagger.

In today’s gaming landscape, dominated by sprawling open worlds, branching choices, microtransactions, and monetization strategies, a tightly crafted, linear, story-driven experience has become a rare treasure. Mafia: The Old Country may just be one of the finest examples left. While it’s not without flaws, and its scope reflects the publisher’s reluctance to invest the time and resources of a traditional production, it still delivers where it counts. For players who value strong storytelling, focused level design, and the immersive pull of a well-paced single-player campaign, this is an experience worth owning.

Hero Express is not a revolutionary title, but it offers enough entertainment for a reasonable price for almost anyone in any age group.

Siege of Paris is an overall better package compared to Wrath of Druids, but it's not flawless. It's much closer to the original game in terms of structure, and the level design takes the players back to the classic Assassin's Creed games, although the choices the player makes throughout the gameplay seem entirely pointless eventually.

Evil Dead: The Game can be very entertaining as long as you play it with a bunch of friends or you are huge Ash Williams fan, or even better, both.

Rage 2 might be fun for newcomers or fans of crazy shooters, but it certainly disappoints the fans of the original Rage.

For the lovers of heavy trucks, 4 wheel drives and Jeeps, and for the lovers of rough roads and difficult conditions, Spintires is the real deal.

Shadow Man Remastered is one of the best remastered titles in the recent years, as it stays as loyal as possible to the original game, while adding some great new touches here and there. But despite all the efforts from developers Nightdive, the core gameplay mechanisms still look too old to attract new generation gamers, leaving the game most appealing to the older fans of the series or Metroidvania lovers in general.

If you truly enjoyed the original Outriders, you'll probably have some more fun with Worldslayer expansion pack, although most of the shortcomings of the original game are still there.

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.

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.

Salt and Sacrifice is a great combination of some of the best elements from games like Dark Souls and or Monster Hunter and definitely entertains, even though the core gameplay mechanisms and the combat system could get extremely hard and annoying at some points during the game.

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.

Warriors Orochi 4 suffers from lots of problems and issues, and if you are not familiar with the series, think twice before going for it, as there are far better options available on the market. But for the hardcore fans of the genre, Warriors Orochi 4 can be entertaining, especially for those who doesn’t like the open world setting of Dynasty Warriors 9.

They are Billions is not that different from other games in this genre, except for its Zombies of course, and actually you can even compare it with some top Zombie titles.

Steelrising could be a great start if you were hesitant to walk into the Soulslike genre due to the genre’s complications and difficulty levels, and while it doesn’t revolutionize or add anything special to the genre, it still offers a great setting in 1978 Paris and a solid overall experience.

Yyron Lannister once told john Snow to know your weaknesses and wear them like armor. That’s exactly what the creators of Earth Defense Force 5 are doing. They know exactly what problems and shortages their game is suffering from, and yet instead of just trying to hide them, they throw them in your face and even make fun of them, and that’s really brave. EDF 5 is not perfect, and everybody knows that. But it’s fun and offers everything you would expect from an EDF game.

At first glance Outriders might look like some other shooters such as Destiny or The Division, but its complicated and diverse combat help it stand alone and impress, and with some better support and polish can easily challenge other loot shooters in the market.
