A great mix of two genres. The Outsiders has delivered great shooting and great music in a game that is as much a rythm game as a shooter.

The Last of Us Part I masterfully recaptures what made the original release so special, and thanks to the improved flow of both visuals and gameplay, the journey is better than ever.

Immortality lacks the satisfying detective work found in Her Story and Telling Lies, instead opting for randomness and an almost complete lack of control as to what part of the game you're wanting to explore. The story itself is enjoyable to piece together, but finding each piece is a frustrating and deeply repetitive process.

Unfortunately Volitions new Saints Row offers nothing more than a completely middle-of-the-road action game that is occasionally fun.

Rollerdrome is stunning to behold and great fun to play, but loses some of its flow as it starts to swamp you with more and more stuff to look out for and get hit by.

It's not often that a tactics game asks you to do anything other than lie in hiding and carrying out carefully thought-out assassinations. Hard West 2 does. Here it's all about getting as much as possible done in one round, and the art of combining the characteristics of the characters with the highly engaging Bravado system makes the game an engaging experience.

A fabulous combination of the casual farming simulator and the more action heavy roguelike. Cult of the Lamb dishes out everything you could want from both genres, with gameplay mechanics and systems that run deeper than anything you'd expect. Who knew that running your own religious cult could be so much fun?

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is a spectacular game that could've been made even more spectacular if the combat was even remotely close to challenging.

Everything you could want from a follow-up to the charming and hilarious Two Point Hospital. Running your own university in Two Point Campus is never boring, as you try to provide both an education and suitable living for your ever demanding students.

A thoroughly enjoyable game. Live A Live is simple and old fashioned in all the right ways, where each little story leaves you wanting more.

Stray is both fun, clever and charming, thanks to its unique premise and colorful cast of characters. I only wish there was more to do, find and play with in the city.

A strong story about how tragic life can be when everything goes wrong.

Neon White is intuitive and offers quick and "flashy" demon slaughter for just over a dozen hours.

This is an expansion that offers a number of small but noticeable adjustments that make life as a hunter, if not easier to survive, then at least easier to deal with. We get new monsters, new areas, and a lot of new equipment to play with. A solid expansion with new content.

Quotation forthcoming.

Sonic Origins is easily the best way to play these games on modern consoles, but the collection still feels somewhat lackluster.

The Quarry is a fun romp that, thanks to great casting and an intriguing mystery, manages to stay mostly engaging for its 9 hour story. The plot doesn't quite stick the landing, and some real challenge in the gameplay sequences would be nice, but nonetheless this is one of the better games from Supermassive in a long time.

If you're craving good beat 'em up games, Shredder's Revenge is definitely worth checking out. If you also have a good relationship with the Ninja Turtles from childhood, the recommendation is self-written.

Sniper Elite 5 is a bad game, in part thanks to boring maps, lackluster graphics and a non-existent story, but most of all because of its fundamentally flawed AI that takes all the fun out of stealth and sniping.

Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising offers easy fun. It may be simple, but it works, and even if you go back to the same areas a lot of times, it doesn't get boring.

Dorfromantik is the game version of a relaxing break. It's almost like putting together a puzzle, only in a slightly more interactive form. You lay down tiles with different landscape elements, and try to make them fit together.

While it is extraordinary beautiful, Trek to Yomis gameplay is lacking in multiple areas.

Nintendo Switch Sports is a fun and easily enjoyable game, but could use some more content.

Teardown offers a unique toy box experience. The game will probably not appeal to everyone, but those who enjoy to tinker with systems and experiment with different solutions to problems will find a lot to like here.

I am both impressed and happy with Destiny 2: The Witch Queen. A lot of the content is very good, and there are also some moves being made that make me excited for the future of this game.

The Skywalker Saga is at its best when it delves into its more linear and tightly designed sections, as the open areas are devoid of life and exciting missions to spend your time on.

Kirby remains as pure and charming as ever, and his newest game is an absolute joy.

Maybe there are those who want to laugh their heads off at the humor, and love to rummage through rubbish looking for treasures, but I'm fed up. Tiny Tina's Wonderlands can be fun. Especially with friends, but then you might as well play Borderlands 2 again.

After a slow first chapter, Weird West opens up to give players an exceptional and supernatural sandbox to play around in. Each story offers an exciting new perspective on the world, and is a joy to explore as you uncover the consequences of the many choices you make along the way.

Tunic is a really cozy game that only gets better the longer you play. It captures much of what made games like A Link to the Past so immersive in its time, but merges it with its own design elements (and a bit of Dark Souls).

Explosive combat, fun activities and a beautifully realised city makes GhostWire: Tokyo stand out as a truly unique experience.

There are too many good competitors out there for the game to stand out. The one thing Chocobo GP has over its competitors is Final Fantasy, and that's something the developers have completely failed to make full use of.

There are some funny elements in Conan Chop Chop, and the gameplay itself is ok, but when the underlying structure is as bad as this, it all collapses.

Triangle Strategy is a triumph. It is a beautiful and atmospheric game that offers both a really engaging story and gameplay that only makes you want more.

GRID Legends stands out from the pack thanks to great variety, action packed racing, fallible rivals and a superbly endearing story mode.

Gran Turismo 7 is a triumphant return for Polyphony. Being so much more than a simple racing game, it's a car enthusiast’s dream come true, with precise driving controls, fancy and immersive menus, and a soundtrack and presentation that tops it all off.

Lost Ark is a huge game, and feels like a game that has been out for several years already. It's polished and balanced, all the different classes are good, and there's an almost endless amount of content here.

Elden Ring is the culmination of everything Dark Souls brought before it, mixed with a fresh take on the open world genre that leaves no hand held with minimal boring sequences or clogged quest logs. Despite a few growing pains and the real fun beginning a few hours in, Elden Ring is what every game in its genre should strive to be; a challenging, mysterious adventure that never ceases to amaze, only getting better the more time you spend in its dark, yet absolutely beautiful world.

Dynasty Warriors 9 Empires simply lacks the essential fun factor that makes you want to play.

Techland deserves praise for having put together a well-functioning and well-flowing game, which is also completely free of microtransactions and other nonsense. It's just a shame that the game itself isn't more fun to play.

Total War: Warhammer III is a spectacle of a Total War game. While it doesn't do much in the way of micromanaging and even defaults on optimization, it offers some truly spectacular moments and epic campaigns whether you're playing as the humans or invading chaos monsters.

Horizon Forbidden West fails to live up to its predecessor in just about every way. While the world and its many new machines are stunning, the experience is bogged down with confusing design choices and variation for the sake of variation - making Aloy's newest adventure one to forget.

Expeditions: Rome is probably developer Logic Artist's biggest and most impressive game, but not all aspects are equally rewarding, and when you're forced to do the same thing over and over again, the whole unfortunately becomes somewhat less than the sum of its parts.

Pokémon Legends: Arceus is a huge step in the right direction, delivering on parts of the dream of being a pokémon trainer like never before. It's unfortunately also marred by a bland story, lackluster visuals and tons of small frustrations spread throughout.

Rainbow Six Extraction is a fun, slightly different game in the cooperative shooter genre. It's less chaotic, more methodical and maybe doesn't have the extreme peaks that, say, Back 4 Blood can have at its best.

Halo Infinite is a Halo game through and through, and probably the closest 343i have been at capturing the same magic that Bungie did all those years ago.

Shin Megami Tensei V offers well-known and traditional gameplay that has been modernized and refreshed exactly in the ways it needs to.

Sherlock Holmes Chapter One is a fresh new start for the nearly 20-year-old game series, and to some extent manages to reinvent the wheel.

At its best it's action filled and grand in every way, but most of the time you'll struggle with game-breaking bugs or even getting into a match without the game crashing. Hopefully DICE will be able to save this beast with time, but it will demand a lot of work, and an expansion of its most exciting mode, Battlefield Portal.

More figures to choose from, more boards to play on, and individual dice would have done a lot to lift this game up an extra notch, and extend its life somewhat.

Call of Duty: Vanguard offers an at times spectacular campaign and a fun multiplayer mode. Yet the authenticity of the Second World War is all but gone, with missing historical maps, teams and uniforms, leaving me wondering why the developers even chose this setting to begin with.

After 5 games with build-up, we are left with a staggeringly good game that delivers both quality and entertainment beyond all expectations. It is both big, beautiful, varied and very, very fun.

The great presentation and music is what really makes the game shine, but the card battles could have done with some more thought.

Impostor Factory is another incredibly written and deeply emotional story from Freebird Games. The game is in some ways a victim of diminishing returns, but still delivers laughs and tears aplenty.

Clever writing, fun gameplay and a deeply charming cast of characters goes a long way, but Guardians of the Galaxy is otherwise a tad too long, too noisy and too unpolished.

An engaging battle system in a slim package, Dungeon Encounters still offers some good hours.

The Flåklypa Grand Prix of 2021 expertly reinvigorates a lot of what made the original game special, but the lack of multiple games and activities is a let down.

New World has many of the fundamentals down, but does little to innovate or bring true charm to the experience, making it feel much too generic and boring after just the first few handfull of hours.

Age of Empires IV is fundamentally a true AoE game, but sadly, it's very little else. There are no bold chances taken here, no great additions or revolutionary changes. And that, after so many years, is disappointing.

If the purpose of Back 4 Blood is to resurrect Left 4 Dead, then mission accomplished. I still feel that the game would have been better if it managed to differentiate itself more from its contemporaries.

Metroid Dread is nerve wrecking, intense and immensely satisfying.

The game is straight up horrible, and I can’t understand how someone concluded that this was ready for release.

Far Cry 6 does little to innovate and bring the series forward in a new and exciting direction, despite the beautiful island of Yara and the decent gunplay.

Engaging tracks and an enjoyable selection of cars makes for a colorful and fun, but clumsy racing game.

Eastward is charming and offers a surprisingly dark story, but is bogged down by stale combat mechanics and too much boring and non-sensical dialogue.

Xuan-Yuan Sword 7 might not be the game of the year, but it is a well made and memorable experience that has some of the most beautiful landscapes that games can offer.

Diablo 2 Resurrected is ridiculously gorgeous and enthralls us into its dark world, despite some annoying quirks from the past - like the outdated item management - still being with us.

Amazing graphics is one thing, but Bridge of Spirits is so much more thanks to engaging level design and surprisingly deep combat. It's a game that overdelivers on almost all fronts, making for a truly superb and memorable adventure.

Bursting with color, and well acted, but also a bit to short and clumsy at times.

Hectic fun that it’s hard to stop playing.

Playing Deathloop is a joy in almost every way. Arkane Studios has successfully built upon what made their earlier games good and made something that feel both unique and stylish.

Tales of Arise is an experience with good sides and bad sides. On one hand it is a great adventure in expansive and gorgeous environments, with a stellar action oriented combat system that might be the series best one so far. On the other hand the story – while interesting – is told in a really frustrating manner, with way toO much dialogue that has no real place or purpose.

Twelve Minutes is one of the most interesting games of 2021, but it might not be one of the best.

Mythos is an absolutely astonishing expansion, and marks the return of A Total War Saga: Troy both as an amazing game, and as proof that historical and mythological amusement may indeed be found in one and the same game after all - just not in the way the game first intended.

King's Bounty II is a disappointing RPG experience, doing very little to innovate, not really even managing to produce something that's fun or particularly exciting over time.

Psychonauts 2 is a lively action-platformer that also manages to be thoughtful and deeply moving.

Road 96 weaves a colorful and deeply unique tale that never ceases to engage.

Humankind is the best 4X game I've played in a long time, only improving on everything that's come before it.

No Longer Home is not your typical game, being both vague, concrete and altogether dreamlike in its portrayal of what it means to grow up.

The Forgotten City is a marvel of mystery and mythology - a love letter to fans of historical dramas with supernatural twists.

Hidden underneath the old Zelda formula lies a charming and beautiful adventure that still manages to captivate old timers and those who experience Skyward Sword for the first time.

Death's Door is a wonderful action RPG, and a great option for fans of challenging games who are looking for something a little more accessible.

A game with a lot of positive qualities that never really reach the heights it could have.

The newest Mario Golf game is both competent and colourful, but a distinct lack of varied courses and sometimes stiff gameplay makes for an experience that's best enjoyed in small doses.

Intermission has some good qualities, such as the battle system, the music and it looks great. However, it does not offer much new.

Legend of Mana Remastered is a terribly cute and charming JRPG that has both the good and bad qualities of a game made in the 90s.

The game is seldom fun, but there is potential for a a great Dungeon’s & Dragons game here. It just needs some more work.

Game Builder Garage is meant as a simple, easy to understand, and visual introduction to coding, and for that purpose it works very well.

If you ignore the lackluster story Scarlet nexus will offer a great action game.

Despite the intimidating amount of lore and extensive techniques needed to fully enjoy the story and combat, Guilty Gear -Strive- is a thoroughly enjoyable game.

Chivalry 2 is a beautiful, hilarious, and surprisingly deep medieval brawler. If only it offered a few more modes or dynamic battlefield movement, this could be a classic for the ages.

Knockout City is fun, fast and fresh, and even though it sounds like I'm describing a deodorant, it's also the perfect way to describe this just-as-perfect summer game.

Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart is a beautiful and action packed adventure, but which sadly leaves its characters' personalities and fun, snarky comments behind in favour of more shooting, strafing, and a more sanitized, Disney-like story.

Biomutant is an ambitious project, but it never excels at anything. There are too many incomprehensible design choices and frustrating moments, which in turn hinders the game from being truly great.

Mass Effect: Legendary Edition stays true to the series while doing enough of an update to make the price of admission worth it.

There is a good game just below the surface here, but Atlus has not implemented enough modernizations to make this remaster worth your time.

Feels like a love letter for the series that mixes and matches the best parts from previous games, while building upon the foundation laid out by Resident Evil 7.

A colorful and charming adventure.
