    A surprisingly complex and enjoyable simulation of a correctional facility. [03/2016, p.64]

    SLRE can’t compete with the titans (i.e Forza Horizon 2) but it is doubtlessly the best rally game by Milestone. [03/2016, p.63]

    A well-written cyberpunk graphic adventure that tackles some weighty subjects. [03/2016, p.62]

    • 50 Critic Score
    A tiny drop of satisfaction provided by a happy ending does not compensate for the frustration brought by earlier failures. [03/2016, p.61]

    • 65 Critic Score
    The gameplay is still great, but Amplitude’s content is scarce and electronic soundtrack (half of which was composed in-house) is simply boring. [03/2016, p.61]

    A belated game following the band of other Korean MMOs vanishing on the horizon. [03/2016, p.58]

    The PS4 edition of WoT is the prettiest of all HD versions but upon arrival offers less vehicles than its siblings on PC, Xboxes and even mobile devices. [03/2016, p.57]

    It’s a shame that Attractio is so ugly and its story is so bland, because the puzzle are really well designed and their difficulty is properly balanced. [03/2016, p.57]
    • CD-Action
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An enjoyable parody of low budget sci-fi movies from the 50s. [03/2016, p.55]

    To truly succeed, a puzzle game needs to be innovative, like Portal or Antichamber. Unfortunately The Witness lacks that quality. [03/2016, p.54]

    • 95 Critic Score
    I liked almost everything about this outstanding roguelike – the atmosphere, the wonderful visuals, the unbelievably exciting combat, the unforgettable narrator, the challenge it poses, the uncommon replay value. [03/2016, p.52]

    Brainseed Factory had a cool idea but failed utterly in terms of gameplay design. [03/2016, p.51]
    • CD-Action
    • 83 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    If you value interesting co-op Helldivers is worth checking out, but the developers should have used 10 months since the release of the original PS4 versions to improve the camera and tackle the repetitiveness. [03/2016, p.51]

    The console version of This War of Mine is solid but it does not offer enough new content to justify playing the game again if you’re already familiar with it. [03/2016, p.50]

    • 73 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    A charming and highly addictive game that can wear you down with its repetitiveness and unavoidable grind. [03/2016, p.49]

    • 90 Critic Score
    A unique game for connoisseurs that still weep over Fallout’s fate. The Age of Decadence is minimalistic in terms of technology, but its depth in almost every gameplay aspect is astonishing. [03/2016, p.48]

    Although the story was built on some well know foundations, it’s gripping and promises a great experience. It’s a shame the ending is such a disappointment. [03/2016, p.46]

    I appreciate the addition of brand new research projects, more interesting enemies and much larger variety of environments, but I’m not sure I’ll muster enough enthusiasm to play XCOM 2 again. [03/2016, p.44]

    Resident Evil 0 was the weakest game in the series when it was originally released in 2002 and still is in 2016. [03/2016, p.43]

    The fact that someone turns “Adventure Time” into a 3D game proves alone that they simply do not understand the source material. And it’s not a good 3D game too. [03/2016, p.42]

    People who brought us HD editions of original Homeworlds now offer a good RTS with an engaging but rather short (9 hours) story. [03/2016, p.40]

    When Unravel did not annoy me with its poor level design and shortcomings related to gameplay mechanics, it was really enjoyable. [03/2016, p.38]

    • 90 Critic Score
    All Dragon’s Dogma’s drawbacks (i.e. repetitive quests, occasional boring backtracking, poor checkpoint system) become irrelevant when you focus on what this game does well (i.e. truly impressive combat), because it does it better than any other action RPG. [03/2016, p.36]

    The new large area is just a beginning. The car was introduced really well and tweaking it is really rewarding, because all the modifications are meaningful. There are new weapons and enemies (real bosses at last!) and the expansion is well balanced in terms of character development. Lastly there’s a good, skillfully presented story and enough content for 20-25 hours. [03/2016, p.30]

    Image & Form once again proves that enjoyable basic mechanics are key to success. Shooting is so well executed in SteamWorld Heist that it kept me excited throughout the whole over a dozen hours long campaign. [02/2016, p.69]

    A pretty, fast-paced, enjoyable runner. [02/2016, p.69]

    Despite recycling Paper Jam Bros. never looks like a half-hearted effort. [02/2016, p.69]

    Great gameplay accompanied by wonderful visuals. [02/2016, p.68]

    In terms of production values and gameplay Badland 2 is second to none. [02/2016, p.68]
    • CD-Action
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Nothing more than a curiosity with moderately precise controls and steep hardware requirements (at least iPhone 5/ iPad 4). [02/2016, p.68]
