    Puzzle & Dragons Z + Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition
    Puzzle and Dragons Z is worth the price of admission alone, making this a more than worthy addition to any puzzle fan's 3DS library.

    Mortal Kombat X
    Mortal Kombat X is as violent, outrageous and over-the-top as its predecessors, but somewhere hidden behind the brilliant new Fatalities and wince-worthy X-Ray moves is a fighting game with actual depth.

    Crypt of the NecroDancer
    If you've ever fancied taking on the toughest challenges a game like Dark Souls has to offer, Crypt of the NecroDancer is probably what you're looking for. But now imagine completing it with a dance mat.

    Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China
    Chronicles: China is a valiant attempt at expanding such offerings, but it doesn't hit the bar of quality or originality that its genre peers have already set.

    Kirby and the Rainbow Curse
    It's fun and accessible, but doesn't offer enough substance to serve as anything more than fodder for a few lazy Sunday afternoons.

    Titan Souls
    It requires patience, a keen eye, reflexes and skill - and the ability to accept that you will die a lot. And sometimes it will seem unfair. And sometimes you will want to throw your controller at the nearest hard surface. But Titan Souls is a fantastic game; a fine example of what is possible with a simple idea, stripped-down controls and a dense atmosphere backing it all up.

    Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin
    Between the new enemy placements, greater challenge, the improved visuals and all the additional bonus content, Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin is absolutely worth a first look if you're a newcomer to the series - and in the case of returning players, almost certainly worth a second.

    The Sims 4: Get to Work
    There's no doubt that The Sims 4 is all the richer for 'Get to Work', but it is merely one small step towards building the game into a worthy successor to its classic counterparts and satisfying a vast fan base.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    Pillars of Eternity
    Pillars of Eternity is a masterclass in role-playing game development, recapturing the essence of the genre's past triumphs and repackaging them for a universal audience.

    Axiom Verge
    Regardless of what label you end up applying to Axiom Verge in your own discussions, the most important one to keep in mind is this: Axiom Verge is a damn fine game.

    Xenoblade Chronicles 3D
    It's an essential purchase if you're new to the series and love role-playing games, but a harder sell if you've already explored every nook and cranny of the vast and beautiful game world on a bigger and more capable screen.

    Bloodborne
    I want to keep playing, I want to discover its secrets, I want to fight every monster, try every weapon, discuss theories and explore as many of the community dungeons as possible. To put it bluntly, I want to bleed the game dry.

    Ori and the Blind Forest
    Without question it's the best game Microsoft has published since the onset of the Xbox One era and one that's pleasingly, satisfyingly easy to recommend.

    DmC: Devil May Cry Definitive Edition
    Representing the best of both worlds, it improves on the original game in almost every way, adding the challenge that long-term fans have been craving, without sacrificing its newfound accessibility.

    Zombie Army Trilogy
    While there's good fun to be had in co-op mode, and players who like their shooters chock full of zombies won't be disappointed, this feels likes a somewhat limited package on the whole.

    Mario Party 10
    When playing a good skill-based minigame it can be a blast, but these moments are far too fleeting. It's a fun game to stick on when you've got company round from time to time, but don't overdo it or it won't be long before people stop accepting your party invites.

    Final Fantasy Type-0 HD
    Although the real-time sections are weak, they aren't overused and there's always something interesting coming up.
    • 85 Metascore

    Cities: Skylines
    Cities: Skylines successfully caters for the audience left disappointed by SimCity with a level of accessibility tailored for casual city builders, combined with enough substance to delight veterans of the genre. Colossal Order has learned from EA's mistakes and brought us a game that steers clear of those pitfalls and emerges as a pioneer in its category.

    Flame Over
    Extra polish would have gone a long way to improving Flame Over's fortunes, but as it stands it's a few embers short of a fire.
    • 74 Metascore

    Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number
    It's a very 'pure' game, in that there isn't much else past the central mechanic of combat, and those who might have wanted a huge step up from the first time around will be disappointed. But there were plenty of us out there a-hankerin' for some fresh levels, some new features, and plenty more of the tight, fast fun we all loved last time around.

    Homeworld Remastered Collection
    There might have been some worries when the series ended up in the hands of new developer Gearbox, but they've proven to be unfounded; Homeworld Remastered Collection has been handled with the care and attention it deserves, and is worth a place in the library of any self-respecting fan of strategy games, spaceships or little things flying around going pew pew pew.

    OlliOlli2: Welcome to Olliwood
    OlliOlli 2 is a great example of a sequel done right. The developer has been very astute in identifying areas that could be expanded on, tweaked and refined, while leaving the excellent controls, campaign and daily challenges untouched.

    The Order: 1886
    It's by no means a bad game, but it's hard to say it ever drags itself out of mediocrity. Yet at the same time it's an experience that's hard not to recommend.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Evolve
    As it stands, it's a game that could really benefit from some additional content if it's to evolve into the next must-have multiplayer shooter.

    Total War: Attila
    Creative Assembly's award-winning strategy now comes in a brand new flavor, and it bears all the hallmarks of a franchise rejuvenated.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate
    Its high level of difficulty means that this remains a franchise not suited to everyone, but its sheer quality means it's infinitely deserving of being given a chance. Take the plunge and allow yourself to be absorbed by the ride - it's well worth it.

    The Escapists
    A mite obtuse at first and sometimes unfair in its logic, sure, but a recommended game and one sure to have people poring over pulling off their perfect Shawshank Redemption-esque escape for years to come.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Life is Strange: Episode 1 - Chrysalis
    With its interesting time-control mechanic and relatable protagonist, Max's tale is off to a strong enough start to suggest that Quantic Dream and Telltale are in danger of being beaten at their own game.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Dying Light
    With Dying Light, Techland has most certainly improved on Dead Island's melee-focused, open-world formula, but it still hasn't perfected it.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D
    With its non-linear structure and surreal tone, Majora's Mask 3D sometimes doesn't feel like a Zelda game at all, but it's those who know the series best who will get the most out of its demanding dungeons and its many entertaining side-quests. And with a number of smart improvements that make its frustrations easier to bear, the 3DS version is by far the best way to experience it.
