9 Years of Shadows is a solid 2D action-adventure title that is very pretty to look at, and could be recommended to those who don’t focus on combat.- CGMagazine

Total War: PHARAOH will be another must-play for fans of the series or those who can’t get enough of Ancient Egypt, but hopefully you have a top-notch PC, because at least for now, the game chugs pretty badly, crashes are frequent, and load times are atrocious.- CGMagazine

Moonlighter’s loop of combat, exploration, and sales is an engrossing one, with steps taken to keep players invested in every part of the game.- CGMagazine

Dragon Is Dead has a great sense of style and a lot of good ideas, but its execution of mechanics makes it feel a bit confused about what it wants to be.- CGMagazine

Bursting through a wall with guns blazing has never been this fun. If only there were more unlockable content to work towards than what is included.- CGMagazine

Don’t let What the Bat’s absurd premise stop your baseball bat for hands move through hours of hilarious puzzles - and recapturing simple childhood fun - that hits a home run over the new PSVR 2 console.- CGMagazine

I can’t think of another game that manages to evoke the themes it presents to players so well. In every way imaginable, from the plot, to the scenery, to the music, and even to the combat system, I am Setsuna wants players to question their mortality, the time they have left, and the decisions they can make in that time.- CGMagazine

Wrong Number, more than a direct continuation, is an expansion and affirmation of Hotline Miami’s themes.- CGMagazine

If you’re a fan of gory, pixelated, 2D shooters with a whole heaping of voice acting laced with swearing, then Not a Hero is easily recommendable.- CGMagazine

Crayola Scoot is one part Splatoon and one part classic Tony Hawk Pro Skater, but lacks online play and longevity if playing solo.- CGMagazine

While it may not blow anyone’s mind, Hidden Through Time 2: Myths & Magic is a serviceable hidden object game with an exception level editor.- CGMagazine

I’d recommend Nobunaga’s Ambition to anyone looking to dip their toe into the turn-based strategy genre. It’s deeply robust in its execution, without being so demanding that it loses its entertainment value. It has incredible replay value and will satisfy fans of the genre and history buffs alike.- CGMagazine

Expedition: Viking is a fun slightly strategic RPG that utilizes an interesting theme to great effect. Unfortunately, it doesn’t take enough chances to really be memorable.- CGMagazine

Phoenix Point has some interesting ideas that are brought down by a bad UI, poor difficulty balancing, and a distinct absence of polish.- CGMagazine

Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory is fun romp through the series many memorable moments, with excellent music and simple but diverse gameplay to keep this title as replayable as possible. While the story lacks in some places, it continues to offer interesting tidbits for the series ever expanding lore, and creating an awesome idea of where the series story is heading in the future.- CGMagazine

Gigantic is an imperfect game in a genre dominated by Overwatch, but this isn't a bad place to start if you are interested in the idea of a hero shooter. Plus you can play for free.- CGMagazine

Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake is a perfect example of what bringing a classic to the modern era can be. Updating gameplay and visuals to look and feel better while leaving the original unnerving story intact.- CGMagazine

Capcom seems to have honed in on the fact that Resident Evil is, despite its previous posturing of drama, silly. It’s embraced its B-movie nature and ends up being a lot more entertaining because of it.- CGMagazine
