Mythos failed to win me over for long. Having played through the early stages with two characters past level 10 I faced the necessity to laboriously grind my way up to level 20 and beyond – and that depleted my reserves of time and enthusiasm quickly. I don't regret all those hours spent with Mythos but I just don't intend to spend any more. [June 2011, p.68]

Those who expected a separate adventure, an independent chapter in Aventuria's history, will be sorely disappointed. It's more of a DLC. It's nice to see the game world expanded with a new setting (a beautiful elven city) and new quests offering up to 10 hours of gameplay but I can't help but think it's not enough for a full-fledged expansion. [June 2011, p.84]

There are some fun hidden object games out there but Vampire Saga: Welcome to Hell Lock is not one of them. It makes you return to the locations you've already explored (sometimes even look for the objects you've already found there!) and listen to a single music track for over 4 hours. [Sept 2011, p.72]

Makes a very bad first impression with its horrible visuals. The gameplay mechanics are rather shallow. I've got prettier, more complex and cheaper games on my iPod touch. [October, p.80]

The low budget feel is limited to visuals and audio – the rest of the game is a really solid rally racing experience. [December 2011, p.52]

I can recommend it only to the youngest players – not just because of the movie but also the difficulty level. Others will die of boredom. [December 2011, p.96]

Generic missions, bland locations and poor humour make Bunch of Heroes an uneven battle not only against alien invaders but mostly against boredom. [January 2012, p.66]

However its production values are very low, this game did impress me with an emotional story and tough moral choices it forced me to make. [January 2012, p.73]

Despite my numerous attempts to calibrate Move the controller's precision in Hunter's Trophy left much to be desired. It's an old, ugly game that can appeal only to retired hunting enthusiasts. [February 2012, p.63]

Right now – with just 8 ski jumps and no AI at all – DSJ4 looks more like a demo than a full-scale game. [March 2012, p.56]

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

Nothing more than an attempt to snatch some money. [April 2012, p.74]

I honestly recommend the Ultimate Edition to everyone who Skyrim still left hungry for questing. [April 2012, p.78]

Scarygirl's world could have well been born in Tim Burton's mind and gameplay strongly resembles good old Pandemonium. Unfortunately difficulty level is very uneven and some segments virtually play themselves while others may leave you furious. [June 2012, p.57]

An on-rails shooter that occasionally feels like a low budget Call of Duty but is not worth the money. [June 2012, p.64]

A good idea that needed a better execution. Gets boring after half an hour. [August 2012, p.85]

There's a lot to improve and mend in Brick-Force – like weapon balance, frequent crashes and ugly visuals – but the game is still young. It's worth a try but, for God's sake, turn off that awful music. [September 2012, p.65]

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

Those of you who remember rich expansions to Heroes of Might & Magic V will be disappointed by modest Pirates of the Savage Sea. [10/2012, p.67]

A failure. A tragedy. A nightmare. Everything went wrong in this game and it's one of the worst I've ever played. [12/2012, p.78]

Garshasp's only advantage is its price, but the time you would waste on this weak game is much more valuable. [12/2012, p.87]

New game by Angry Birds developer Rovio puts more emphasis on creative thinking and less on dexterity and is equally addictive. [12/2012, p.89]

The developers should be ashamed to put Manhunter in their portfolio. [CD-Action 02/2013, p.58]

Paired with PS Vita’s gyroscope it would have been a cool thing but as a conventional game on a PC it’s just average and boring. [CD-Action 02/2013, p.63]

Arctic Combat is not dripping with content and it’s crystal clear Webzen has no grasp of the nature of Call of Duty’s success. Their game is just average but can be entertaining at times. [CD-Action 03/2013, p.67]

This game captures the magic of the tabletop original but does absolutely nothing more and the AI is half-baked. [CD-Action 03/2013, p.69]

Rise of the Guardians offers a 4 player co-op mode, so it’s a good idea for masochists’ get-togethers. [CD-Action 03/2013, p.70]

A weird game with an amazing atmosphere and a really long, vast campaign. [CD-Action 03/2013, p.71]
