An interesting blend of card and action games, which is definitely worth attention. To be a top game it needs to get rid of a slow start, improve the card visuals and remove a few small problems during fights.

Modern Warfare 3 does not crown one dramatic story with pride. A campaign is more or less a relict of an old engine and design flaws mainly that are successfully selling as a trademark. Its ranking is saved once again by its multiplayer that brings just a single style of gameplay. However, it does its job and entertains those gamers, who are fine with it.

Avernum 2: Crystal Souls is an adventure which pays tribute to the old classics by its enormous content. Small budget and a lack of resources are unfortunately clearly visible. Old-school gamers who remember the Exile II will enjoy this one anyway.

I hoped to experience the feeling of ruling a fantasy kingdom. Instead, I got a confused, arbitrary simulator of moving pips on a scale. It’s well written, granted, and it certainly looks pretty, but its core mechanics just aren’t well thought out and implemented.

RoadCraft is the most accessible entry in the SnowRunner family, shifting the focus more toward gameplay than simulation. While it strips away some of the entertaining, yet realistic systems from its predecessors, it more than makes up for it with its own innovations. Unfortunately, the simulation lacks consistency, and the game's poor technical performance can easily rob you of hours of driving fun.

Baldur's Gate II: Enhanced Edition is a well-executed restored piece, unlocking tens of hours of great fun to the new generation of gamers, while making it possible to remind the best game by BioWare to those, who remember it, in a comfortable way.

State of Decay is offering you to have first-hand experience of dealing with the zombie-infested Earth. The intense experience is being built-up by plenty of selves-affecting possibilities resulting in one of the best sandbox games of the recent years.

A pleasant surprise for every gamer with any platform that wishes to try out entertaining arcade gameplay in Mario Kart fashion. There's nothing to criticize, just the framerate drops in multiplayer. Although this is an arcade classic, it is excellently worked out. All thumbs up.

Great turn-based strategy game with quirky animals stylized in medieval illuminations. Inkulinati is addictive, illustrations are funny and imaginative, but challenging battles against ink monsters will thoroughly test your logical thinking. Beneath its cute exterior lies a small but complex strategy game.

Tropico 6 is easy on the eye, complex, diverse and fun, but at the same time very similar to its predecessors. Other faults include illogical design decisions and technical difficulties.

Autosport's top-notch variability, rediscovered love for car simulator, and nerve-racking pace race are tainted by the recycled career and by the system of awarding points which is a moot point. The third Grid could have been fantastic, if Codemasters did not rely on naïve gamers.

Tormented Souls 2 builds on nostalgia for classic survival horror with tank controls. It succeeds in creating a strong atmosphere despite overwrought dialogue and poorly executed animations in the story cutscenes. It will primarily satisfy fans of B-movie horror, as well as those who once trembled through the early Resident Evil games. Some may even forgive the missteps in combat difficulty tuning, as high-quality puzzles and well-designed levels ultimately reward those who persevere.

The main problem of the 4th episode is the fact that its date of release is delayed so much you are halfway through the game and you do not even know it. Anyway, it is the most thrilling instalment of the second Walking Dead series so far. Give us the final episode!

A beautiful looking remaster which doesn’t manage to significantly upgrade its source material in aspects other than graphics. Only faithful Final Fantasy VII fans who didn’t get to play it on the PSP will leave truly satisfied.

When you take the solid foundations laid four years ago and enhance them with an engaging career mode, the ability to explore an even more detailed Earth, and marvel not only at intricately designed aircraft and their cockpits but also the surrounding environment, you get the most advanced simulator of today. However, this comes at the cost of high hardware demands and reliance on a stable internet connection, which directly impacts the quality of the experience, as well as the practical necessity of investing in a joystick. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 still isn’t a fully accessible game for everyone, but it continues to deliver breathtaking moments.

The second episode pushed the storyline forward with a style. Technical issues and low impact of your in-game choices denied the better score. But the breathtaking finale indicates we have something to look forward to. The story openly avows to the David Lynch legacy and together with a perfect atmosphere there is a potential to catch gamers’ curiosity - an extremely important ingredient for a story-driven game.

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

No man ever steps in the same cockpit twice, but if they do, the step will be a very hesitatant one. Codemasters have managed to return with honour, however, they've brought nothing new to the table, and by messing about with the time-proven mechanics they are losing their chances to win. This instalment is going to have a hard time in the hands of the original title fans, who still wear their rose-coloured glasses. However, if you are hungry for some racing, GRID 2 serves much better than you think.

A beautiful, nicely crafted puzzle game draped in a dream-like atmosphere and filled with appropriately difficult mysteries. It’s a shame that it will probably annoy you by its failed attempts to tell a deep story and wax philosophical.

Wargame was developed across the three installments, but always bit by bit. Nevertheless, the third one may be considered the actual top of the series. Navy might seem bizarre but as a company to land battles – it's working. Large scale battles, tens of beautifully-crafted models of ironclads changing into fireballs, and impressive multiplayer slaughter. If you've enjoyed military approach in the previous two installments, Red Dragon won't disappoint you.

Have a Nice Death is a pleasant experience for roguelike fans who don’t fear challenges or corporate-infused humor. It’s also truly frustrating, however, and it gets less fun by the hour.

For some of you this is going to be a catlike degradation of the arcade series, for the others it's going to be their first moment to grab their plane and let their dream come true. There are helicopter missions and they are just fine. However, the story campaign full of turnovers and flashy broiling turns Ace Combat closer to passive gaping. Those simulator guys of you should wait for the upcoming hit by Jane's, for those of you bird of prey lovers – you should be enjoying this Namco's arcade video game under your Christmas tree.

Five new stories, five new protagonists, five new fifteen minutes. All for five euros. 400 Days is an appealing canapé with highly standard storytelling of the original. However, it partially loses its battle because of the title's short length and its lack of inner interconnection.

This bloody sandbox rampage through the crowds of undead belongs to the most entertaining launch titles of the winter. Its no way amazing graphics along with its unimaginative story are saved by its great gameplay along with dozens of crazy weapons along with its entertaining co-operative mode. On top of that, there are no more frustrating moments from the previous installments.

Hell is Us is a bold and original adventure game that refuses to hold players' hands and relies on their intelligence, memory, and willingness to immerse themselves in a raw story full of real-life war horrors. While the adventure and puzzle elements are excellent and the story is very suggestive, the action feels more like unimaginative boredom.

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.

Dead Space series has evolved and changed as well as its main protagonist. In Dead Space 3 there is no longer that lone and frightened engineer called Issac, armed with just a harmless cutter. This time he clears his way through darkness, frost, mutants along with Unitologists' limbs, with elegance of a world saviour expert. Dead Space 3 offers a different experience than its predecessors, which is not detrimental, on the contrary. Do not let its otherness discourage you.

An expansion of two halves - one of them terrific, the second distinctly average. As a whole, it brings a solid amount of new content and finally honors promises made long ago. Kingdom Come finally reaches the height of its power.
