An outstanding story-telling survival of a non-traditional style that plays with the unprecedented feeling and humor on a horror note. The fight does not have to suit everyone, but if games like this are not completely strange to you, the phenomenally tense atmosphere, great art style, and the gorgeous background story you must unravel yourself, will catch and hold you until the end.

Immortal Redneck is a funny link of oldschool shooting games with roguelike style. Hand-crafted well-made combination is an invitation for players who may not be interested in the game if wasn't for both its features.

An excellent demonstration of making and reviving the genre of tactical turn-based strategies with lots of little innovations and ideas. Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is funny, nice and playful game that should not be missed by any Switch owner.

Flawed technical state undermines the fun of the top-story episode. Telltale should consider, if it´s not right time to blow out their aging engine out of the window.

Visually and technically just a tragic game of a magician. But beneath a cheap and repulsive peel it hides a catchy destructive entertainment. Apart from the action and sophisticated system of spells, it does not offer anything else, so check your preferences before you buy. If you have the desire to use your omnipotent magic and wipe a pair of cities to the ground (expecting nothing more from the game), you will hardly find a better choice.

StarCraft: Remastered admittedly targets to esport. While for professional players it is almost perfect, for ordinary people it is a half-baked remaster of once great game, which is not so good to play today.

The world championship title is won on the track and behind the scenes in the F1 2017. Codemasters have created the finest formulas race in history that combine a brilliant driving model with perfect racing management. You will feel like a real sport star.

A stylish addition from the masters of the genre does not falter in any moment, and proves that the Uncharted universe can flourish even without Drake brothers. The rumors about DLC for the near full prize are plausible, but in fifth sequel, it will need more surprises and innovation than only a good playtime and a show.

The Escapists 2 will delight you with new graphics, a multiplayer game including a LAN option and plenty of new exotic dungeons. Unfortunately, due to its high difficulty, somewhat frustrating mechanics and repetitiveness (no change since part one here), only the most skilled players will probably enjoy the game.

Survival experience at its best – that is an episodic adventure, The Long Dark. It could even be a great adventure in RPG style if it improves the storytelling and technology in upcoming episodes or updates.

Cult series done pretty well into the game. The fun is almost instant, but it also disappears as quickly. If there were more possibilities and environments, perhaps one would stay there longer. For a few plays the game serves fine, but not many players will return very often. Impression is also corrupted by obsolete visuals and technical issues.

Furious and entertaining city action from Saints Row's creators, benefits from popular team actions, but doesn't offer any real team at the same time. The technical issues, non-attractive missions and unbalanced characters spoil the fun.

The huge potential of surprisingly realistic survival game suffers from obsolete visuals, even though it’s on purpose here. The gameplay is downgraded by the boring mini games –the become boring due to a lack of new elements in the second part of a game. The game-improving highlights are a storytelling, voice acting, ambient sounds and fantastic music. Walden has the best chance of succeeding with Thoreau fans, both new and orthodox (they should stay alert though).

Free (for original game owners) remaster of the brilliant pixel-art star-trecky game brings many cosmetic enhancements. The campaign, among other things, has also a faster pace, an appropriately officers unit, automatic material collection and a new interface. Still, it would help a lot if the game could offer a possibility of sandbox and an option to run the game in slower mode. Core fans of the original game, however, will receive a polished gem with a promise to the future, so they can add one point to the score.

A game adapts the basic mechanics from the Souls series successfully, and offers working fighting system, but fails to bring the catchy charm that glorified original have. Unnecessarily high difficulty, inconsistent design decisions, stereotype and boring environment make the game only a dull average piece.

Cyberpunk adventure with a horror tinge and great focus on the Bladerunner legacy with Rutger Hauer in the leading role. The game will catch and charm you with a dark, claustrophobic atmosphere. But unfortunately, they will plug you out from its magic virtual reality too soon, what will probably cause you a temporary perception disorder.

An interesting and superbly crafted connection of two arcade legends for your phone. You will have a fun, but how much it would be? Average technical solution and no power given into your hands are problems that can´t be forgiven.

The fate of astronauts from the damaged space ship takes one’s breath. Adventure excels with a A-quality plot and an idea with holographic memories is just excellent. It´s a pity the playing time is so short and the environment is poor.

The Nordic mythology mixed with the exploration into the human insanity provides the basis for a dark, stirring mood. The game is based on fear, and anxiety exploration and the stunning main character, respectively the excellent performance of the lead actress. The combat system sometimes cannot keep the pace, but the rest of the game is an unconventional joy that is definitely worth buying.

An addictive turn-based strategy lets you manage a group of mercenaries. Occasionally it is hard and demanding, but it is a nice and unusual game for the fans of the genre.

An imaginative, fresh and fun mix of sport RPG, adventure and picture gamebook. It offers a sophisticated storyline, well-written characters, and a great playability in its action parts. Everything is enhanced by a fresh visual style and fantastic music. The absence of an online multiplayer or a little slow mid-game pace are the only tiny flaws you can forgive easily.

The Crimson Court offers a dense, well-made addition that enriches an already excellent title with fresh content, playability and balanced difficulty. The bloodthirsty monsters, the masochist hero, the giant epic dungeon, and the pile of new difficulties to keep all chars alive and sane are well worth the price.

A great shooter that doesn’t push the boundaries of the genre and it won’t bring new players, but it is more or less a must-have for the fans of the genre.

The game suffers from being too like the previous one, there is a simplification where it was not needed, and finally it offers little varied content. To learn about the tragic fate of survivors through texts only can still make up a strong atmosphere that you can hardly experience elsewhere, but the potential is wasted and after the first couple entertaining hours the stereotype takes place.

A beautiful and challenging game that gives some extra years to your age. You will hate every group of enemies and love every victory you will reach through blood, tears and sweat.

After all, a funny and original multiplayer shooter that kept the good from its predecessor, improved some not-so-good mechanics and served a great menu. However, creators made some minor mistakes and several half-way decisions, but as a whole it is a noticeably better product.

One of the best war strategies I have ever played is a great compromise between fidelity to reality and pure entertainment. Besides the monotony of the environment and the small flaws in the user interface, you can’t complain to anything.

An uninteresting and boring platform game, which even the army of cute pikmins can't pull from the below average score.

Beautiful, long-lasting and pleasantly made, this is Aven Colony – the star among the building strategies. Although it copies many things from less known games, it managed to keep its own and dignified face.

An interesting adventure filled with extraordinary moments, beautiful as a postcard with sunset. Rather than a game, it is more an interactive movie to watch.

Low ambition and little fun. Kingdoms and Castles copies the famous building strategies with a low effort. It's just a piece to be soon forgotten.

Great logical platformer strength is mainly on delightfully drawn distressful atmosphere and fine visuals. While gameplay is not completely spotless, a number of interestingly designed puzzles makes the game a pleasant thing for anyone who likes to think.

Highly funny and well-crafted content, however, in a small dose and at fairly high price. So what now? The Necromancer is an amazing figure, but it's hard to get rid of the feeling that Blizzard could offer much more.

If you want to experience the "Vietnam trauma", play Rising Storm 2. This multiplayer action is almost tuned to the max and extremely nerve-wracking. Only if the authors would add more content.

Not very interesting fantasy story, poor optimization and bad gameplay – horror adventure from a Turkish studio is mainly a horror to play. It has a few good moments, but before it begins a real fun starts, the game is over.

For the idea of a blind girl hero and bits of Bioshock, the game would deserve nine out of ten. Everything else, unfortunately, it is an average game that can be attractive only to the fans of horror games.

The game that works best when you are looking at screenshots. Deep black biomechanical surrealism can draw such incredibly impressive scenes. In all other considerations is the game fails.

Serious Sam returns with style. Furious, crazy, brutal, and just as he was from the very beginning. Different point of view and beautiful style fit well and it does not matter whether you are fans of the series or not. Anyone will enjoy this uncontrolled massacre.

A maniacally detailed and complex system of scenery and rollercoaster construction ensures that if there is at least a piece of handyman in you, then you will spend hundreds of hours in Planet Coaster easily. And you will have fun. Players who are looking for dynamic playability or challenge will leave without a buck, but for the builders the game is a paradise.

Everspace is an addictive space rouge-like shooter that doesn‘t punish the ship destruction too cruelly. In addition to entertaining gameplay, it offers a beautifully created universe where it is a pleasure to fly in any spare moment you have.

From a graphic point of view, it‘s a beautiful space trip but an unimaginably difficult mini-games and devastating random encounters kill all the fun. Only true enthusiasts of the genre with a lot of patience can take it.

Crash Bandicoot works well after twenty years, not only because we do not see many similar games today. With minor exceptions, the game is still a good, fun and stylish platformer that will catch also the audience not yet familiar with Crash.

Hollow Knight is a charming arcade that will not only inspire Metroid/vania fans. You will never be bored in the enormous and magical environments thanks to the colorful RPG elements, interesting story and unique visuals.

Get Even creators have probably lost both fans of horror games and shooters by layering the story and dosing it through shorter memories. But they attracted both the fans of thrillers and fans of exciting stories – which is definitely quite an achievement.

The return of the popular WWII RTS works quite well. Blitzkrieg 3 fells more like the remake of its predecessor, but that is not necessarily the bad thing. Fans of the series will be happy and, thanks to the low difficulty, even the newcomers will not have trouble delving into the game.

Fresh piece of a tactical RPG blends well urban and time management, comprehensive turn-based duels, gorgeous visuals, and plenty of colorful and humorous characters. The game, however, deals with saving issues, over-lengthy duels, dubious AI, unfriendly interface and the continuous click-fest over the loading screens.

Everything is an impressive, extensive and all-embracing ... interactive application at the first place. The game occupies the second place. Let yourself drift on the waves of science and philosophy and try to create an unparalleled world. However, it is not entirely guaranteed that you will enjoy it.

Fantastic adventure, journey of knowledge, flawless puzzle game, a piece of art ... All names fit to the Monument Valley II, the sequel of the 2014 mobile hit. If you can, buy it and play it.

Guardians as a game are just a faint shadow of the movie, so just the most devoted comic and movie fans can find something good here. It's not really bad, but Telltale definitely can do better. They can still improve a lot before the series end.

StarCrawlers is a space-punk dungeon crawler that offers a great atmosphere, a splendid combat system, an engaging set-up and a rather interesting story. Besides several minor flaws, the major fun killer is an unfortunate focus on the procedurally generated content that can‘t compete with manually created work yet.

The best rally game on the market and the triumphant return of the famous series. Codemasters listened to both the ovations and the lamentations and made a great driving game with lots of bonus content for everyone. DiRT will not stay undefeated this year – at least on the gravel.

The DC Comics top heroes break their noses in a grand show. NetherRealms improved not only the visuals but also the story, game mechanics and bonus content. The result is an almost universal combat game, which will please everyone, and will steal dozens or even hundreds of hours from your life.

Original, stylish and user-friendly combat game, that will entertain you with its gameplay in local multiplayer. But Arms suffers from a desperate lack of content and functions. Basically, there is nothing that you would expect from a full price modern combat game.

In the Rime adventure there is no talking. For this silent game speaks a wonderfully crafted environment, refined puzzles, a holiday mood and a fresh pace for 3D platformers.

The story is so dense, it could discourage with a pile of text and a small amount of action, but anyone who gives Trails in the Sky the 3rd a chance, gets tens of hours of great entertainment, brilliantly written characters and an interesting story.

A tribute to the doom-esque games failed. The game is knocked down by the basic elements of gameplay, such as procedurally generated environment, boring weapons and stereotyped enemies.

In Skylar & Plux, there is a genuine joy of simplicity. In a shorter, but more concentrated 3D arcade, the whole family enjoys a great entertainment with no delays and heavy heads.

Futuristic Tokyo is a beautiful and stylish city. It offers great stealth, pleasant freedom and great atmosphere. It’s a pity camera-shuffles sometimes make the shooting unpleasantly difficult.

The Surge introduces a fresh breeze into the action RPGs by its placing and fresh approach. It is a pity that developers have run out of ideas when they were designing levels.

The microproject about family misery prefers the idea before gameplay. A good scenario forces you to think about life and death, but the perfect story-based adventure must offer more.

An extravagant puzzle adventure combines gambling, carnival and detective story. From all this came an irresistible game full of tension, logical thinking and time shifting. A must-have for anyone who do not mind using a brain while playing.

An eye-catching pointillism with a unique discovery mechanism with which you won't discover so much in the end. Even so, you will get a special experience and some printscreens from this cave.

An excellent sequel of the series that will allow you to spend a year in the skin of a high school student and during that time shape the future of the world. It offers nearly a 100 hour experience that blends JRPG with adventure, logical puzzles, and dating simulation. It entertains all the time, even though sometimes it can frustrate with its cruelty. It’s a must have for the fans of the previous games, and an ideal startup title for the newcomers.

The major problem with Realpolitiks is that the game has little to do with reality or with politics or ultimately with the funny design of other grand strategies.

Sometimes unnecessarily frustrating and obsolete, but still top turn-based strategy with great emphasis on RPG elements. Fans of the series will be thrilled. And the others? For them, it's just another good reason for buying 3DS, and to try Fire Emblem finally. It's really worth it.

Pinstripe is a wise and catchy platformer. To be perfect, however, it lacks richer content, which is trying to compensate with an interesting idea and magical visuals. Lovers of arcades with storyline will be certainly pleased.

The emotional confession of the family haunted by the curse gave rise to one of the most wonderful adventures of the game history. Its originality, atmosphere and specific gameplay made it into a real piece of art.

A slightly above-average realtime strategy does not reach the quality of its predecessors. Although it looks wonderful, it’s flawed by the design decisions like no cover, low stamina units or the only one MP mode.

If you admire adventure tourism, you are in the right place. This, by design imperfect game, keeps you charmed with its own atmosphere.

Excellent first person action with a strong RPG element allows countless gameplay approaches with its sensitively set systems and fantastic game- and level- design. It brings an eye-catching story, a great scriptwriting, a mercilessly exciting atmosphere, and it does not allow criticism of logical deficiencies because it explains everything carefully. Technically, it is flawless and runs smoothly. A handful of minor flaws can be overlooked with no regret.

The unfinished product is pulled back to the ground not only by its technical issues, but also the inconsistency or the fuzziness of the original concept. The game playability save its robotic probes and tremendous modularity.

Hearthlands is a comprehensive strategy game in the Majesty series style, that offers relatively sophisticated micromanagement and original features. Its flaws, such as the absence of a story line, remind you of the modest developmental conditions, but in most cases, you will enjoy it like a good AAA game.

In the rush for controversy the developers have forgotten what makes a good horror game. Outlast 2 turned out to be a game that targets the streamers and forgets the real players.

The masterfully crafted puzzles in an engaging atmosphere make Quern - Undying Thoughts a piece of art. The game is a perfect example of what a puzzle game can be, when it’s not just bunch of puzzles glued together.

Expeditions: Viking builds on the best of the previous game. It offers entertaining strategic duels, a well-developed story, a pleasant replayability, and a realistic Viking adventure.

Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 is a mix of disparate game genres that often do not make sense. Atmosphere and action gameplay are not bad, but instead of graceful ballistic dances, it rather shoots its own legs with technical issues, ugly graphics, poor optimization, and a miserable story, which results in a title that has nothing to offer.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe does not have the ambition to push the boundaries of the genre, nor to upgrade the old habits. In some cases, game cannot keep up and does just a little more than the original MC 8. However, it does it all marvelously, and if you have a couple of friends, you will enjoy a lot of fun.

The standard Telltale adventure, now in the merry Guardians of the Galaxy setting. Fans of Star-Lord and his crew will find a solid story in the first episode, everyone else will do better grabbing the Tales from the Borderlands.

Straight-up Nordic fighting game, which offers core hack’n‘slash and a pleasant atmosphere of the Nordic mythology.

Syberia 3 feels like nobody play tested it during the development. The basic beta test would have revealed the fatal flaws in controls, plenty of eye-beating issues, bugged puzzles and a number of annoying bugs. Several more months of development would really help Syberia. At the moment, it is the title only for the most courageous and patient fans.

Huge and sophisticated game. Less resistant or tolerant players will be destroyed, rumbled and spit through its brutal and even unfair difficulty. But the hard-core players will be rewarded with flawless and functional mechanisms, an excellently designed ecosystem of the world, exploratory joy, breathtaking atmosphere and an addictive feeling of success.

An excellent point and click adventure proves that both Ron Gilbert and the adventure genre still have plenty to offer.

The enhanced edition of the glamorous gaming classic invokes mixed feelings. It brings a more modern look and greater users comfort, but some changes don't fully improve the game. Additionally, the enhanced version offers an original content without any changes, which is a warning to all original game owners who were looking forward to new experiences.

Detective adventure game with lots of –on a first sight– interesting game elements that are not finished or meaningfully used. The result is a solid game with an interesting atmosphere that would need the devs spent more time with it. Perhaps the impression will improve with the upcoming sequels/parts.

The space cowboy game with vegetables in the leading role effectively combines narration, humor and gameplay and presents an unusually dense portion of entertainment.

Playing the train repairer is not a flop, but its routine campaign with notoriously repetitive tasks will satisfy only hard-core railroad fans. Or maybe not even them.

Faster, Baby! is a story-based DLC that offers catastrophically little content for its cost. Focus on the action is not bad at all, but besides the pitiful length, it has ordinary story, an open world without any meaning and a bunch of nonsenses. All in all, we’ve got an average piece once again.

Dark game in the hostile environment of the Gloomywood town from the creator of the Alone in the Dark game. Although it does not achieve the prize for technical style, its playability and sophistication will easily conquer you.

FlatOut 4 is an average racing game that lacks the passion for on-the-edge driving. Once the famous demolition series denied itself when you're now afraid to smash into anything.

The Great Whale Road should have stayed in development for a few extra months. It would not only fix technical issues, but perhaps they would work more on game elements. Despite all the criticism, it is a game that has something to offer and will find its players.

A great content add-on that takes the best of the basic game and the previous games and adds great new features. The Ringed City excels in design, atmosphere, gameplay, boss fights. In fact, almost in everything that it offers.

Humorously, Old Time Hockey revolts against the hegemony of the NHL series. The atmosphere of a sympathetic sport arcade that does not take everything too seriously is worthwhile. Can’t say the same about its gameplay, which suffers from insensitive controls, weak artificial intelligence, and poorly built game motivation.

Fly-proof Bomberman's gameplay never grows old. Even this time it works out well, despite the occasional stumbles over confusing arenas. The biggest issue of the game is its outrageous price.

Captivating atmosphere, mood, tension and humor, and a many exciting story lines - these are the main pros of this excellent police adventure. Later in the game, you’ll get tired of the repeated circling around parked cars unfortunately, but this one major flaw in design can be overlooked thanks to the overwhelming dominance of the positives.

Yooka-Laylee is an amazing arcade playground with free gameplay and many hours of addictive fun. Shines like a rainbow, though a lot of those colors were "borrowed" from the older games. Non-originality is, however, a bearable price to pay for such great experiences.

Though it may not seem this way at first, The Elder Scrolls: Legends is at the core a relatively fresh card game that offers some surprisingly deep tactical options. Game impression is spoiled by bad styling and sound, but also by the fact that on the surface it is too much like Hearthstone. The actual gameplay is good, fans of the genre who will get over the initial embarrassment, will eventually like the game.

Adventure of unusual style that excels with characters, script, the atmosphere, the style and even mini-games. Do not miss it especially if you love great stories.

All in all, a simplified and then stereotypical, but yet a JRPG made with love the best way from the 90s. Fans of Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy will feel like at home, for others it’s a good opportunity to venture into the secrets of Japanese RPGs.
