    A promising title that lets itself down over and over again.

    NARUTO X BORUTO Ultimate Ninja STORM CONNECTIONS’s greatest feat is making me want to revisit the smash hits that CyberConnect2 has released in previous entries of the franchise, as it nearly fails in everything else it has on offer.

    An interesting experiment that fails to nail either side of the experience, it uses Fallout trappings to good effect and can be fun with great environmental storytelling and West Virginia itself is gorgeous. The lack of NPCs and overall cohesion along with lacklustre PvP hinder its identity, however.

    Terrifier: The ARTcade Game won't convince you to check out the movies. Its stale gameplay and frustrating issues can make it unappealing to even fans of the franchise. However, it's not a bad time with friends.

    The Calamity Angels themselves are indeed angelic, but this wacky workplace adventure comedy could have used a lot more wackiness to go with them.

    A basic action adventure game with a great style and a surprisingly engrossing story that is sadly backed up by repetitive gameplay that never evolves into something great.

    Done before and done better, Rainbow Skies is a game that has taken a fairly bland concept to begin with and proceeded to not change a thing about it. If you're looking for an epic tale of heroes and rogues, you'd be better off looking elsewhere.

    While Max: The Curse Of Brotherhood does have a good story, it has too many downfalls to forgive. The platforming just isn't up to par, and the checkpoints will have you throwing your controller at a wall in no time.

    Once the novelty of being allowed to give someone testicular cancer wears off, it's a rather uninspired affair. Clicking for hours at a time will likely result in carpal tunnel syndrome, which is the price you pay for being such a dreadful sadist. Shame on you.

    A frustrating, hard to control climbing game that feels ultimately shallow and impractically designed.

    Blue Reflection is one of the few times where I would say that it would work better as an anime rather than a game. It has a lot of good ideas and systems at work but sadly none of them are fully developed and poor performance ruins the experience.

    It’s unfortunate that Ubisoft decided to end with something so weak. The first two DLC were fantastic fun, but Dead Living Zombies fails to be innovative, with a very light coating on top of a glorified Zombie Mode. I honestly don’t know how they could have made this better, but I’m sure it was possible. A lackluster end to the season pass trilogy, and to my time with Far Cry 5.

    Gripper on paper sounds like a great time, but the way it is carried out just doesn’t work. The game design itself just leads to frustration, instead of a fun experience.

    A bland, soulless horizontal SHMUP that is extremely basic and by the numbers. Interesting boss designs don’t do enough to hold the rest of the game up. In such a crowded genre there are much better options.

    Peregrino has several interesting concepts, but it struggles to offer novel gameplay and a reason to keep exploring.

    Nira is only worth it for its low price - there are already games that do the same thing, but far better.

    An intriguing concept that falls flat thanks to a repetitive mission structure, a lack of rover variety, wonky controls, and nothing to keep players engaged. Enjoyable for an hour or so, but by then you’ve seen everything Rover Mechanic Simulator has to offer.

    Wildshade is a serviceable kart racer with an interesting core mechanic and purposefully built courses that reward careful attention. However, it doesn’t offer nearly enough to warrant its price tag and fumbles in other key moments.

    A solid experience worthy of some small praise when it works, but Alder’s Blood: Definitive Edition is so marred by bugs that I cannot in good conscience recommend the game. God is dead and, so long as the game remains unpatched, God will remain dead.

    At first glance, Skystead Ranch is a creature-collector title for Viva Piñata fans, but upon further inspection, it feels too unfinished with features that don’t work and design elements that don’t feel as cute and whimsical as its visuals.

    A bloated and bland action adventure title, with a few standout mechanics, but none that can save it from being an underwhelming package.

    Chains of Fury isn’t quite ready for release. While the gameplay is fun, it is held back by various issues that show its lack of polish and just not having all the content it should.

    Confidential Killings - A Detective Game won’t offer challenging investigative puzzles or tedium-free clue gathering, but you do receive excellent visuals and an interesting cast of characters.

    A bland, repetitive roguelike that had the potential to be something far greater. Scar-Lead Salvation is disappointing in almost every aspect.

    Arctic Awakening starts with a captivating mystery, but fails to stick the landing. The poorly developed story, lacklustre voice acting, and technical issues let down its potential.

    I couldn’t help but feel that the greatest time manipulation Aeternoblade II succeeds at was the 15 hours I wasted playing it.

    An incredibly simple RTS, The Unexpected Quest is best left unexplored.

    The Backrooms 1998’s jumpscare-heavy take on the Backrooms is an underwhelming entry in the horror space with poor sound design choices, lack of intentionality with its mechanics, and bugs.

    Disappointing, but with a glimmer of hope down the line for a better iteration.

    I really wanted to like One Troll Army, but the only people I would recommend this to are streamers, and even then it’s a gimmick you could play once and move on to something else. If they’d have made the non-streaming version more important, with failure states that actually meant something, this would be better, but as it stands this is a game for streamers and not the average gamer.
