    Saints Row
    However, the bugs should certainly not remain unnamed and it stands in the way of an even higher final score. Saints Row really does a lot of good and Volition successfully uses the reboot to bring the best of Saints Row to the fore, namely building your own crime organization. The result is a game that is perhaps even closer to classics such as Vice City and San Andreas in terms of ambiance and structure than its successors, but in terms of finish it just doesn't come close to those games. Saints Row will also not go down in the history books as a classic, but there is no doubt that there is a lot of fun to be had with the game.

    Shin-chan: Me and the Professor on Summer Vacation - The Endless Seven-Day Journey
    Shin chan is like that one holiday at a campsite in the south of France, when summer seemed endless, you made friends effortlessly and finding a shiny card in a pack of trading cards was the highest goal in life. Whether you relax or get bored of that is something to decide for yourself.

    Rollerdrome
    Rollerdrome plays as fluidly as the action looks. Like a murderous ballerina on roller skates, methodologically blast your enemies into the afterlife. The high difficulty level keeps the action challenging, while never having to compromise on style. Rollerdrome makes killing graceful, but would have benefited from a little more variety, and not just in the arenas themselves. Apart from the popping, the game is actually just a bit too bare.

    Cult of the Lamb
    Other games would succumb to such a large amount of systems and game mechanics, but Cult of the Lamb brings all its ideas together with verve in a special mix of a roguelite and a management game.

    Live A Live
    With a well-executed remake, Live A Live finally appears outside of Japan. The obscure JRPG deserves a spot in the spotlight, as the influence of this unique game can still be felt today. With new insights and angles, Live A Live manages to shake up the genre, even though the game is already 28 years old.

    Xenoblade Chronicles 3
    There may be no titans in it, but Xenoblade Chronicles 3 manages to stand head and shoulders above its predecessors. The gripping story and the almost perfected gameplay complement each other in a sublime way, thanks in part to a strong cast and a renewed and improved combat system.

    Stray
    Stray knows how to depict the life and movements of a cat like no other game. The robot city your kitty gets lost in is a joy to explore. Disappointing sections with mediocre gameplay, however, are a black mark in this beautiful cat coat.

    Cuphead in the Delicious Last Course
    The Delicious Last Course is an almost perfect extension. The game mechanics and animations take the boss fights to the next level, the new way to earn in-game money is a lot more entertaining and Ms. Chalise provides the necessary variation. While the fun may be over too soon, this expansion makes Cuphead even better.

    Citizen Sleeper
    With a great writing style and emotional storytelling, the narrative sci-fi game Citizen Sleeper has taken a permanent home in our dreams.

    Neon White
    Neon White wasn't on our radar, but turns out to be one of the best games of the year. The game continuously challenges you and your friends to go faster in the varied, but short and accessible levels. You don't have to do it for the story, but the brisk pace and fluid action will have you stuck in Neon White for hours on end. Especially if you like leaderboards.

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge
    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge offers timeless entertainment. It's obvious that Tribute Games developed this game with a lot of love. That results in a game that plays it safe with a couple shortcomings, of which the chaotic multiplayer throws the biggest spanner in the works for less experienced players. Apart from that, this game is more than worth your time.

    Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes
    The Warriors series can be considered the king of satisfying hack-and-slash action. Three Hopes now tests your patience more than ever with a long-drawn-out story and few developments during combat it is the perfect game to pick up and play whenever.

    Mario Strikers: Battle League
    Mario Strikers: Battle League Football requires more skill than its predecessors to get the ball and the game your way (or foot), but unfortunately that diminishes the party game potential. If there had been more characters, game modes and playing fields, Battle League would still have been a fantastic football game, but it falls terribly short in those areas.

    Evil Dead: The Game
    Evil Dead: The Game is somewhat sparse and frustrating for players going through it alone, but the game offers a lot of gory fun for those who play with others, although there are some bugs that throw a spanner in the works. And of course Bruce Campbell returns as Ash!

    The Quarry
    The Quarry is the perfect material to create an atmospheric spooky evening. It contains enough mysteries, monsters, chases and frustrations to keep you on the edge of your seat. As Supermassive's most experimental horror game yet, we sadly had hoped for more originality.

    Vampire: The Masquerade - Swansong
    Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong is not for everyone. Players who like strategic detective games will know how to make the most out of this game, but the lack of action or clear hints can quickly make the game feel long-winded or boring.

    Sniper Elite 5
    Sniper Elite 5 is a little bit better than its predecessor in every aspect, but not by much. There's a little bit more content, a little more variety in said content and it all looks a little bit better. That said, you'll have to blink twice to notice the differences between Sniper Elite 4 and 5. The result is a fairly risk-free sequel, but that doesn't make it any less fun.

    Best Month Ever!
    Although the sometimes controversial themes of Best Month Ever! give the game more emotional depth and question the players' morals, it might have been better if that energy was spent on optimizing the flawed gameplay. Lovers of point and click games have little to complain about, but players looking for a challenge should look further.

    The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe
    Like the original, The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe is more experience than game. The meta-adventure will make you laugh, but may also make you think while enjoying the wonderful voice of Kevan Brighting. In addition, the office adventure is twice as long as the original: still a short experience, but this time an evening-filling program.

    Nintendo Switch Sports
    Gameplay-technically, Nintendo Switch Sports makes a big impression; especially the subtle adjustments in the recurring sports feel refreshing. In addition, badminton and football are excellent additions that would not have looked out of place in the acclaimed original. The total package still feels a bit bare, so that you get bored of the less fun sports a little too quickly.

    Cat Cafe Manager
    Cat Cafe Manager keeps it simple, allowing everyone to enjoy the cute cats and light management tasks. Still, the game slowly becomes more complex and satisfying, but it also gets a bit more out of balance.

    Chinatown Detective Agency
    Chinatown Detective Agency embraces its tough puzzles and encourages you to figure out the answers yourself through search engines. This is a unique approach that also presents unique problems.

    LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga
    The greatest Lego game ever is also the most comprehensive Star Wars game ever. The Skywalker Saga offers dozens of hours of fun, provided you're a massive Star Wars fan or avid collector, or play it lounging with a son, daughter, or friend. For challenging gameplay you are in the wrong place.

    Moss: Book II
    New ways to interact with the game world allow for stronger collaboration between you and Quill. This makes Moss: Book 2 feel both familiar and innovative.

    Tiny Tina's Wonderlands
    Don't be fooled by the imaginative jacket: Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is simply more Borderlands. There is nothing wrong with that in itself, but we had hoped for a little more surprise. The game is hilarious at times, but repetitive battles sometimes ruin the fun.

    Kirby and the Forgotten Land
    Kirby and the Forgotten World is one of the most enjoyable Kirby games yet. The magical three-dimensional game world, countless skills and funny Mouthvol shapes keep you entertained. Don't expect deep combat or challenging platforming, though - the focus is purely on carefree fun.

    GhostWire: Tokyo
    Ghostwire: Tokyo is bursting with originality and also looks great. However, that can't prevent that typical open-world game routine creeps in towards the end of the game.

    The King of Fighters XV
    With its familiar, deep gameplay and recognizable characters, The King of Fighters 15 is an obvious success for fans of the franchise. However, in terms of accessibility and presentation, this new part is not convincing enough to stand out from the competition. The game will therefore not gain many new souls.

    Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin
    The story of Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin is so bad it almost gets good again. Almost, but not quite. Underneath that ugly fever dream is an interesting and deep combat system, which pulls the game from doom.

    Tunic
    Tunic is a mystical gem full of elusive secrets that only reveal themselves if you take the time to do so. The basic experience of fighting in Zelda-esque dungeons is already very good, but whoever sticks a toe in the mysterious water is soon up to his neck in puzzles.
