The only thing that distinguishes this game from other endless runners is Sonic. [09/2015, p.68]

If you’re really hungry for a metroidvania but you expect something more than “some indie jam stuff” go for a much better Axiom Verge. [09/2015, p.69]

The only reason people paid attention to this mediocre game was its top-notch marketing which convinced us that Strafe is a worthy heir to the best shooters of the 90s. The truth is that its developers simply misunderstand their inspirations. [07/2017, p.52]

Beyond Eyes is a weak story and an even worse game – completely linear and in my opinion painfully boring. [11/2015, p.37]

Instead of engaging interactions, great animations or wonderfully crafted characters The Beginner’s Guide offers empty, amateurish, uninteresting environments and a story about two immature game developers. [01/2016, p.54]

Gears of War: Ultimate Edition is a great game, but only on Xbox One. The PC edition is troublesome beyond belief. I had to face failing Windows Store download, abysmal performance (so much for the Full HD, not to mention 4K...) and lots of different technical issues ranging from missing textures to game quitting unexpectedly. [05/2016, p.45]

Instead of a breathtaking war spectacle it offers a half-baked puppet show that just can't fool anybody. [June 2012, p.75]

There is so much wrong with FNaF World that there’s just one thing I can commend – the fact that Cawthon had enough decency not to charge people for this rubbish. [05/2016, p.55]

You can't come up with an idea for an interesting, varied gameplay, your budget is very limited and your breathtaking script is being digested by a dog? Don't worry – just make another mediocre zombie game and publish it on Steam. Someone will buy it. [September 2011, p.73]

An ugly postcard from 2006 which someone decided to resend. I have no idea why. [13/2017, p.56]

A mediocre, ugly, boring beat ‘em up that has just one selling point – scantily clad girls. [11/2015, p.65]

The worst thing about Into the Stars is overwhelming boredom that makes you look for something more interesting on the ceiling. You’ll have much more fun playing FTL once again or hunting pirates in Elite Dangerous. [05/2016, p.67]

3-in-1: a poor stealth game, a primitive adventure game and a boring action game. [01/2015, p.50]

The puzzles are decent sometimes and David has a very nice coat, but that’s about all Black Mirror’s advantages I can think of. [02/2018, p.38]

A grotesque game that makes you run around in circles in three small areas filled with endlessly respawning enemies and proofs of developer's incompetence. Daggerdale is dumb, tiresome and extremely bugged. [July 2011, p.80]

Instead of giving the series a new life the developers buried it and the patches are a classic case of ‘too little, too late’. There’s a lot of things you can forgive this game but not the fact that it’s boring. [02/2014, p.58]

I couldn’t get over the imprecise gadget controls and quasi-physics that goes wild once in a while. Plus the game is as boring as ‘The Limits of Control’ by Jarmush. [02/2014, p.63]

It's targeted at the most hardcore handball fans, but disappoints as a simulation and lacks in every aspect. [March 2012, p.72]

Instead of bothering with problems of characters in this not so deep and not so ambitious game, you should go and talk to real people you care about. [02/2014 2014, p.66]

I hate it when developers use pompous artsy nonsense to hide the fact that their game has nothing to offer in terms of gameplay. Entwined is a primitive arcade game with an obnoxiously pretentious ‘love story’. [Sept 2014, p.67]

It could seem that Painkiller franchise cannot be watered down any further. Wrong! [May 2012, p.60]

An ill-designed and poorly executed game that was probably developed only to cash in on the COVID-19 pandemic. [03/2021, p.57]

The game is so amateurish that I’m not sure whether its few good moments were intentional or incidental. [08/2015, p.53]

A mediocre Phoenix Wright wannabe with a story resembling poor police documentaries/reality shows on TV. [01/2017, p.74]

The only advantage of this game that I can think of is that it’s cheaper than a real drone. [10/2016, p.41]

The problem with Neverending Nightmares is that to understand it you need the developer’s sidenotes or your own experiences with depression. Otherwise it’s just a poorly designed, boring horror game. [01/2015, p.76]

Don’t expect to learn anything from Super Seducer. It’s so dumb and cringey it sometimes gets funny and it’s really hard to view it as anything more than a tasteless parody. [05/2018, p.55]

To keep things short and sweet: I see no reasons to play MMA Onslaught. Bellator licence and a handful of well recreated real fighters mean nothing if the game itself is lousy. [10/2012, p.65]

Its charm fades away the moment you look past cute graphics and notice terribly imprecise and unnecessarily complicated controls. [08/2015, p.78]

It's been ages since I wasted 5 hours so pointlessly. I felt like a victim of an exceptionally malicious prank. [1/2013, p.67]

There's nothing worth praising in Iron Front: Liberation 1944. [August 2012, p.81]

It’s possible that this game can be saved – the announced patches seem reasonable. But right now it’s better to stay away from Ace of Spades.[CD-Action 02/2013, p.61]

Karateka is just a series of painfully repetitive QTE. The idea of combining a brawler with a rhythm game is cool but in my opinion it’s not enough for anything more than a minigame in some bigger title.[CD-Action 02/2013, p.63]

'An ambitious story' turned out to be a compilation of clichés realized in a trivial way and dragged down by laughable combat, linearity and overall poor quality. [CD-Action 13/2012, p.73]

It’s got some strong foundations but the execution begs for a mercy killing. [05/2015, p.59]

There’s nothing in Reforged that keeps me hooked in. I was sad playing it. Sad that it ultimately failed. That there are so many things that could have been done better – boldly and with more polish. [03/2020, p.48]

The only reason I don’t regret spending a couple of hours with Bloody Days is that it gave me an excuse to watch Tarantino’s movie again. [09/2017, p.52]

A messed up PC port of an interesting console title. The game is horribly unresponsive when you use mouse and keyboard, the connection lags are awful and it’s hard to find people to play with. [11/2013, p.86]

Here’s an idea: let’s just try to forget this ever happened. [09/2016, p.60]

Militant is amateurish, looks like a dissected specimen from the PS2 era and offers absolutely nothing that would encourage you to bear with its defects. [11/2016, p.57]

An unnecessary, amateurish attempt to bring endless runners to big platforms. [07/2015, p.75]

A poorly written, ugly interactive crime movie that fails to even properly imitate freedom of choice and actions. [11/2016, p.61]

Like all those Goat/Rock/Grass Simulators this nonsense is amusing for half an hour maybe. [06/2015, p.65]

It’s just Clash of Clans redone to make some easy money. [11/2016, p.75]

They say size isn't important but clearly 9mm is not enough. A major failure by Gameloft – the game is mediocre at best and laughable at worst. [August 2011, p.74]

Sadly, it’s not the “so bad it’s actually fun” case. Postal 4: No Regerts is a monstrosity sloppily stitched together from terrible jokes and numerous bugs. The game was testing my patience every step of the way and I could almost hear it scream in my face: “The past is now, old man! Thanks for your money, loser!”.

It’s an unplayable imp of a game which had so many changes and iterations during the course of its production that there was actually nothing left to save. The switch version is an early access copypaste and the first game that crashed on my Switch. [03/2019, p.48]

Give me a minute and I will come up with 17 better ways to spend 10 bucks. Give me two minutes and I will put together a whole list of Steam games both better and cheaper than Enoch, which I wouldn’t recommend getting even for free. [06/2018, p.64]

Wants to mock gaming clichés and point out popcultural absurdities, but it’s a pathetic attempt that insults player’s intelligence. [03/2014, p.62]

Brainseed Factory had a cool idea but failed utterly in terms of gameplay design. [03/2016, p.51]

The concept of an experimental, interactive music album was great, and the fact that musicians associated with Epica, Within Temptation, Kamelot or Asking Alexandria were involved, was very promising and impressive. Unfortunately, the game turned out to be an amateurish mess. The whole gameplay is very poorly executed, the story is cheap and approaches difficult subjects without a trace of finesse, and the voice acting is simply horrible. The worst part is, the music is okay at best. [08/2021, p.54]

I had an impression that the developers intentionally butchered Tony Hawk’s classic formula in every way imaginable. For the last couple of years Activision has been trying hard to finish this series off and it seems it finally succeeded. [12/2015, p.58]

It seems someone forgot to develop a game before publishing it, because MTUS lacks content so desperately that it looks like a mini game from Mario Party. [02/2016, p.63]

This game is a joke, and not a funny one. The Lord of the Rings: Gollum is shockingly ugly, awfully designed and annoying in its many inconsistencies. Let’s just forget this happened.

You spend your petrol on 30 seconds of racing and then wait a couple of hours for your tank to be refilled. “No Limits”? Is the title supposed to be a joke? [12/2015, p.74]

I can’t believe the studio behind Project CARS and Need for Speed: Shift developed such an atrocity. I guess this is what happens when you’re assigned a laughably tight budget, have to spend half of it on voice acting by movie stars, and the publisher wants the game to imitate a triple AAA title. [10/2020, p.93]

Potentia tries to mimic The Last of Us but stumbles all the way through its 90-minute long campaign plagued by a weak story, awful dialogues, amateurish voice acting and horrible enemy AI. [05/2021, p.66]

Kingpin: Reloaded is a laughable version of the cult shooter from the 90s. The developers worked over three years on it and managed to botch pretty much everything there was to botch. Simply put, it’s one of the worst remakes ever made and it deserves cement shoes.

Abandon all hope, ye who enter the Investigator’s main menu. Everything I get paid for this review will be invested in liquor to help me forget about this game. [08/2016, p.66]

To keep thing short and sweet – Postal III is a bad game. [March 2012, p.52]

A poor, ugly PC port of a weak PSP game. [08/2015, p.67]

The developer’s slogan – ‘We make games that are fun’ – turned out to be far too enthusiastic. [01/2015, p.77]

I honestly don’t know why someone thought Shaq Fu needs to be reborn and how the word “legend” fits the picture. [08/2018, p.86]

An awfully boring, repetitive and uninspired game that does absolutely nothing to show PS4’s capabilities but a lot to ruin your day. [01/2014, p.66]

Sedna simply does not understand games from which it supposedly draws. [06/2018, p.77]

People who gave us the excellent Slender: The Eight Pages suddenly ceased to understand what makes a good horror. [CD-Action 06/2013, p.69]

I suspect that if I took the ridiculous money needed to buy Raven’s Cry and instead spent it on a crate of pins, chewed them all up, swallowed them, followed up with salt, washed everything down with lemon juice and then excreted, I would have as much fun as I had in the Caribbeans by Reality Pump. [04/2015, p.52]

I’m not sure what I’m dealing with here. Is Hate Wave an exercise in Unreal Engine done after two weeks of watching tutorials on YouTube? It does seem that way, so why does someone want me to pay for it? [11/2020, p.77]

Taxi Chaos is a shameless copy of Crazy Taxi, soulless and developed by people who lacked not only creativity and skill, but also the understanding of what made the original great. [05/2021, p.67]

I admit I was fooled by the marketing campaign and hoped for an indie survival horror gem. Stray Souls turned out to be a nightmare but for completely different reasons than I expected. It’s an extremely poor game that should have never seen the light of day and I’m flabbergasted that no one – neither the developers nor the publisher nor the investors – said THAT’S ENOUGH at some point.

After a couple of hours spent with Fellowship of Evil I deleted my account on Steam, sold my PC, ran away into the woods and never came back. And when I came back I was still screaming. [01/2016, p.62]

Touch controls are worse than on Nintendo DS, the game looks bad, works bad and generally is bad. [11/2015, p.64]

Square Enix’s terrible, extremely boring version of Triple Town. [11/2015, p.66]

WayForward once again proved that it simply can’t stop being hopeless. [01/2015, p.57]

What a prophetic title. Since the first announcement 5 years ago Ride to Hell has come a long way just to reach the hell of deserved mockery and low scores. Stay clear of this game as if it was a puddle of oil on the highway. [CD-Action 09/2013, p.54]

Clearly some people think that it's enough to hop on the indie bandwagon to make a buck. Don't waste your time on Colour Bind. [12/2012, p.88]

The game is pretty much as bad as a game can be, so the title is spot on. [09/2018, p.49]

I can’t imagine why anyone would play this terrible game and I can’t understand why Gaiman wanted to be associated with it. [Sept 2014, p.63]

Lucius III is outrageously buggy, it’s like a museum where you can experience every notable fail and mistake a developer can make. The saddest part is that the fundamental idea for the game was actually pretty good. [02/2019, p.65]

It turns out that not just the first time with Richard La Ruina is painful. [11/2018, p.85]

The only positive thing I can write about Husk is that its soundtrack is decent. [04/2017, p.58]

It offers enough content to get you occupied for dozens of hours, but what’s the point if it’s the most boring game in years? [02/2015, p.49]

Nothing will save you in this hell of repetition, not even solid shooting mechanics and a large arsenal of weaponry. Fifteen minutes is enough to learn everything about this game, as each new level only brings increase in difficulty, higher enemy congestion and mounting frustration that you threw your money down the drain. [12/2021, p.83]

Yet another sorry first-person walker with a convoluted, rubbish story pretending to be something deep and valuable. [02/2015, p.53]

Lacks in every possible way and looks like an alpha version in need of two more years of development. [08/2015, p.57]

Land of War deserves a small praise for its decent soundtrack, but other than that it’s a disaster, an awfully generic, ill-designed, half-baked shooter that can’t compete with 20-year-old classics. It actually looks like an unintended, distasteful parody of the horrible events of September 1939. [09/2021, p.68]

Tryst is a bad joke, a clickfest designed probably with eSports in mind, but so abysmal that no one will bother with it. [CD-Action 13/2012, p.75]

Sadly all the words I would like use to concisely sum up Ghostbusters are not admissible in print. [10/2016, p.62]

Ladies and gentlemen, we present you “The Worst of jRPG”. [09/2017, p.57]

Five years after original launch the developers publish the same game, adding new microtransactions and cutting content. Defiance 2050 is an example of business practices that should be firmly defied. [13/2018, p.87]

Playing Die pig die is roughly as enjoyable as using portable toilets on the third day of a huge music festival. [08/2018, p.87]

There are some outstanding stealth games like Metal Gear Solid 2. There are some very good ones like Deus Ex: Human Revolution. There are some decent ones like the new Thief. There are some weak ones like The Dark. And then there’s Neon Struck. [07/2015, p.65]

Tamarin reeks of low budget and complete lack of creativity. How is it even possible that people who once worked at Rare (where they made Banjo-Kazooie and Donkey Kong Country, among others) developed such a sad, awful mess? [12/2020, p.73]

The audaciously anachronistic twin-stick shooter doesn’t cut any corners in balancing on the edge of tastelessness. The developers went all the way – in this textbook crap of a game everything is bad. [13/2019, p.91]

The title sums the game up pretty accurately. It seems the developers didn’t know why they are making this game and how to make it. [01/2014, p.68]

…35… 36… 37… 38… 39… Thank God, I can go home now! [CD-Action 08/2013, p.83]

A great example of an eyesore spit out by indie devs convinced that only the story matters. The worst part is that they had no idea how to write the story to avoid it being a cliché running with the pack of sad, moving indie games. [08/2014, p.69]

Its every potentially promising element was executed much better in other games. [September 2012, p.79]
