    Metal Eden presents itself as a visually striking yet brief action experience, boasting innovative gameplay mechanics. However, the game falls short in terms of boss encounters and narrative.

    King’s Bounty II is far from perfect, but this new game from 1C Entertainment can still engross you for many hours. And yet, if you were waiting for a true sequel of original King’s Bounty by Katauri Interactive, you'll probably be quite disappointed.

    Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong offers a fascinating story and great characters, but pixel hunting and insipid puzzles are really disappointing.

    In ten years, someone somewhere will most likely refer to Slitterhead as a hidden gem and a misunderstood masterpiece. In that distant future, maybe you'll agree. Or perhaps you won't. But the thing is - you don't have to wait for another decade to make this decision, Slitterhead deserves your attention right now.

    Give Scorn a chance if you feel like you can enjoy this game as an experience, rather than a strictly gameplay-focused project. Otherwise some questionable design choices and short length will most likely just bore you to death.

    What's most important here is that Nosgoth remains as interesting as ever, and this new collection is currently the best way to play both Soul Reaver games, be it for the first time and as a part of nostalgic comeback.

    Even with great visuals, interesting characters, and engaging plot, by the end Strangeland sadly loses all of its momentum, presenting itself with a really lackluster final act. But given how rare those types of games are, new project from Wormwood Studios is still worth your attention.

    Just like its main protagonist, Cronos: The New Dawn is so obsessed with capturing and replicating the past, that it's kinda forgets to do something more important - to have a soul of its own.

    Ender Lilies: Quietus Of The Knights is a gorgeous and a fun to explore metroidvania, that sadly is dragged down by an awful map, limited equipment sets, and wonky difficulty balancing.

    By choosing a suitable distribution model, developers from DeadToast Entertainment were able to transfer the original gameplay to mobile rails quite well.

    Vaporum: Lockdown is quite an interesting take on Bioshock, with insanely hard puzzles, uninspiring plot, and boring enemy designs. But given how rare the setting is, it's not like you have a lot to choose from.

    Blades of Fire turned out to be an emotional swing, which is why the joyful moment is followed by complete disappointment. We have received a masterpiece that is not understood by the world.

    Zombie Rollerz: Pinball Heroes is a typical game you'll be playing on your way to the workplace or study. Or something you may enjoy to take your mind of from time to time.

    51 Worldwide Games is not only a great collection, but also a kind of tutorial on the history of games from around the world. The project will not impress you with an unprecedented depth, but it will definitely be a great addition for any party with friends and a faithful companion during tedious trips.

    Lost Ruins is a very simple, but still exciting game, which offers a complex magic system and exciting opponents. Probably, by the release on new consoles, it will become even more polished, and some animation flaws and sections with jumps on platforms will be corrected. But even now, Lost Ruins delivers a lot of nice emotions and fun.

    Shin Megami Tensei III is the best game in the series, but it deserves more than what this remastered version offers in technical department.

    Hogwarts Legacy is far from a bad game. It's a great gift to everyone who adores Harry Potter series, and can enjoy Ubisoft-style gameplay structure. But at the same time it is hard to call new Avalanche Software project as some kind of masterpiece, because it's quite clear that the game suffered from development hell and is a bit on the nose with its chase of modern AAA trends.

    Aliens: Dark Descent is an intense tactical game with a thick atmosphere of horror and fierce battles, which in its best moments gives an unforgettable experience. But it's obvious that Tindalos Interactive didn't have enough time and money to realize all their ideas.

    Karma: The Dark World is a compilation of popular movies and games, which in its desire to copy got too carried away, losing its own identity.

    WarioWare: Get it Together! gracefully continues the series tradition by mixing brash presentation with great arcade collidoscope of ideas that feels extremely fun both at loud parties or all alone by yourself.

    Crisol: Theater of Idols has a number of shortcomings, I don't feel like criticizing it. It's clear that an inexperienced team was behind the project — one that did a great job with the story and atmosphere but failed at creating a horror game.

    Oddworld: Soulstorm is rather a mixed bag. On one hand there's plenty of great gameplay mechanics, some innovative gimmicks, and a dramatic story to boot. But at the same time you'll have to deal with a boring color scheme for most of the game, that pairs with some unintuitive and chaotic levels.

    Mario Party Superstars do exactly what it should — it's a great party game for those who wants to spend some fun times with family or friends.

    The Last Case of John Morley is a very short, but interesting noir detective story with outdated visuals and technical aspects. However, the developers chose not to create a hollow pretense of philosophical drama or a profound statement. What awaits you is a convoluted yet fairly simple detective story with a realistic ending.

    Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game was and remains a commendable but short beat 'em up. All fans of the genre should definitely take a closer look at the game.

    Nine Sols is a notable step for the Taipei-based studio, but too high a bar for a small game company to set.

    Sonic Frontiers can't offer any outstanding visuals, but some of the levels give a strong nostalgic vibes, while open world segments are filled with some great boss fights and nice puzzles. Frontiers is definitely better than anything Sonic Team has done in the past 10 years time, so it is a step in the right direction at the very least.

    Tchia feels like an educational project in a form of a gorgeous game that uses different systems and mechanics to tell its meaningful story.
