With RoboCop: Rogue City – Unfinished Business, Teyon delivers a stand-alone title that addresses some of the criticisms of the previous installment, but still deserves a ticket for the compromises it makes. The focus has shifted, putting you in the thick of intense police brutality in this faster-paced first-person shooter, with quicker access to action mechanics and tougher opponents. However, this comes at the cost of a less immersive world, due to limited freedom and exploration, and some lingering technical flaws - though it still delivers bursts of action-packed highlights that show Teyon at its best.

LEGO Horizon Adventures offers a surprisingly successful combination of the world and gameplay of Horizon Zero Dawn and a LEGO-game. The story is filled with dry humor and puns, so it shouldn’t be taken too seriously. With a focus on missions there’s no repetitive grind. It results in a short game, but the quality and attention to detail make it worth every penny. Definitely as the combat and gameplay are very satisfying.

The Siege of the Sandfox delivers a gorgeous pixel-art stealthvania with slick parkour and stellar sound design. The AI and bugs can be a pain, but if you're into metroidvanias, this one’s definitely worth a shot.

A.I.L.A. shows that reality can be harsh and the virtual kind even harsher. Even with a solid foundation at their disposal, Pulsatrix unfortunately squanders an otherwise compelling psychological horror experience by dragging it to a sub-par level due to cumbersome combat controls, unintuitive inventory management and infuriating boss levels. A.I.L.A. carries with it the potential to be a decent, good looking psychological horror tale, but the current reality unfortunately tells us otherwise.

Madden NFL 25 sticks to the tried-and-true formula that fans know well. While the football action remains solid, the lack of innovation might leave long-time players craving something new. It’s a dependable entry in the series, but it doesn’t bring anything groundbreaking to the table.

NORSE: Oath of Blood has kept me engaged with its well-utilized Norwegian setting and linear storytelling that integrates well with the gameplay. The combat is fun, offering freedom in positioning and combos, though it lacks challenge. Building and managing your settlement provides a nice break from the combat. Despite enjoying the missions, numerous bugs and issues prevent the game from being fully successful, but I remain hopeful the developers will address them soon, as it has rekindled my interest in turn-based combat games.

Spirit of the North 2 shows promise but falls short of its potential. Its lore is intriguing, yet hard to access due to scattered fragments and a world that feels too large and empty. While exploration can drag, the game shines in its well-designed dungeons and boss puzzles, enhanced by rune mechanics and a strong soundtrack. Unfortunately, weak visuals, clumsy platforming, and frequent interruptions keep it from being truly memorable.

Nicktoons & The Dice of Destiny charms with its nostalgic cast, familiar worlds, and original voice actors, but doesn’t fully deliver on its potential. The lighthearted story works, yet shallow gameplay and technical hiccups hold it back. Fun for younger players or fans eager to revisit favorite characters, but those seeking a deep dungeon crawler or real challenge may be left wanting.

Is Dynasty Warriors: Origins – Visions of Four Heroes worth it? For Musou fans, absolutely. The new weapons, mechanics, and “what-if” stories are solid additions, though locking content behind main game progress may frustrate newcomers. Pricey, but a strong DLC for a standout entry.

A Storied Life: Tabitha is a short but surprisingly powerful experience, delivering an emotional and layered story through a simple concept. Its mix of puzzles, narrative choices, and a calming atmosphere makes it stand out, even though the limited length and depth is a downside. Despite that, it leaves a lasting impression and is highly recommended for those seeking a quiet, story-driven experience.

Styx: Blades of Greed starts slow but grows into a satisfying stealth game with detailed maps and plenty to explore. The world is full of challenges and creative freedom, though environmental interactions could be expanded. Despite some technical hiccups, it’s a fun and rewarding ride with our cynical goblin.

With Legend of Kain: Defiance Remastered, the final chapter of the saga gets a modern-day polish: great news for preserving this legendary series. The story, lore and atmosphere still shine, and the visual upgrade plus a few neat extras will please longtime fans. Just don’t expect miracles: clunky controls, a rebellious camera and repetitive combat remind you this is very much a product of its time, even if the ride remains entertaining.

Code Vein II manages to stand out within the Soulslike genre thanks to its flexible combat, plenty of room for experimentation, and an enjoyable time-travel twist, even if the story isn’t very deep. Technical issues and some repetitive environments hold it back slightly, but for fans of challenging action RPGs (and waifus), this is still an easy recommendation.

Knights in Tight Spaces blends tactics and deckbuilding with strategic combat and a unique style. Unfortunately, a clunky UI and unbalanced decks cause frustration. With some tweaks, it could become a classic, but for now, it feels unfinished.

Sniper Elite: Resistance feels more like a DLC for Sniper Elite 5 than a standalone game, with a lackluster story, boring protagonist, and repetitive missions. While the core gameplay remains solid, the game suffers from a lack of variety and innovation, while the challenge is diminished by the lack of enemies. Despite some highlights like the X-Ray Kill-Cam and the addition of propaganda missions, the game’s value is better suited for Game Pass rather than a full purchase.

Rusty Rabbit shows that NITRO PLUS has potential, but the execution sticks to mediocrity. For twenty bucks it’s not a bad deal, but it never really becomes memorable.

Rue Valley is a clever, daring time loop game filled with mental puzzles and meaningful choices. The repetition demands some patience, but its strong story and fresh mechanics make it absolutely worth your time.

King of Meat serves up a colorful and chaotic dose of fun, especially with friends at the table. But beneath its cheerful façade lies shallow gameplay and repetitive dungeons, making the flavor fade all too quickly.

Undisputed does a solid job filling the void left by Fight Night, focusing heavily on realism with strategic, chess-like matches. While it excels in its simulation aspects, it falls short due to frame drops on PS5 and a lackluster career mode. Despite these drawbacks, Steel City Interactive’s commitment to updates and DLC gives hope for improvement, making it a promising entry for boxing fans who crave more authenticity. With future polishing, a potential Undisputed: Round 2 could truly shine.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game is a bizarre blend of dark humor and chaotic multiplayer action. The game’s unique premise and wacky gameplay offer plenty of laughs, but its unconventional style might not appeal to everyone. It’s a fun and quirky experience for those who enjoy a mix of horror and humor, though its niche appeal could limit its audience.

Orcs Must Die! Deathtrap blends Tower Defense, third-person action, and roguelike elements into a chaotic yet addictive package. Despite some quirks and a weak tutorial, its fun traps and solid multiplayer make it a must-play for strategy fans.

Little Nightmares III is a bit of a mixed bag. One thing is certain, Supermassive Games managed to keep Tarsier's legacy going by creating a sequel worthy of the name. Then again, Supermassive might have played it a bit too safe, resulting in a game that never really wows and occasionally feels like a step back. Little Nightmares III might be right up your alley if you're craving a Little Nightmares experience with online co-op gameplay, but if you're looking for a sequal that finally deals with the nightmarish controls from previous instalments... dream on.

Heartworm is a moody homage to classic survival horror, with strong puzzles and an effective retro style. It leaves an impression, but falls short of its ambition and lacks the depth to truly resonate.

XDefiant offers a fast-paced, arcade-style shooter experience that’s heavy on customization but leans towards grind-heavy progression and microtransactions. While the game’s diverse factions and loadouts provide variety, its reliance on grinding or spending cash might not appeal to everyone. It’s an entertaining shooter with plenty of potential, but the balance between fun and monetization could be a sticking point for some players.

DALOAR's The Occultist feels like a typical debut project: filled to the brim with a lot of ideas of which a fair amount unfortunately fail to hit the mark. While checking boxes of stereotypical creepy locations and ghoulish encounters, The Occultist rarely impresses in storytelling and character development. The pendulum also feels like it could have done so much more for the gameplay. But hey, at least we got Doug Cockle to grunt you through this 6-hour long experience.

Bloom & Rage – Tape 2 ramps up the emotion and showcases Don’t Nod’s strength in telling heartfelt, human stories. The bond between the friends feels genuine, especially through the sensitive handling of Kat’s illness and strong performances. While this final chapter feels a bit rushed and leaves some storylines underdeveloped, it remains a powerful and memorable conclusion that lingers after the credits roll.

If Bye Sweet Carole has one thing going for it, it's absolutely going to be the classic 80's Disney vibe that guarantees some beautiful cutscenes. Unfortunately, that's where the fairytale ends for Little Sewing Machine's horror-esque puzzle platformer, in which frustrating controls, progress limiting bugs and poor audio dampen the overall experience to the point where you might lose interest before the clock strikes twelve. A lot of these issues are fortunately solvable, but for now, Bye Sweet Carole is a rabbit hole I'd rather avoid.

Last Flag delivers a fresh multiplayer twist with tense matches and a solid presentation, though balance issues linger. Its longevity hinges on the playerbase, and in a 2026 free-to-play landscape, that price tag makes it a risky bet.
