Horizon may be slowly getting older, but it hasn’t lost any of its exquisite qualities. This is still a brilliant action adventure in an original open world filled with well-crafted stories. And, thanks to the PC port, it looks (and moves) better than ever before.

Fight Crab is an awful game that you’ll fall in love with. The controls are terrible, the physics are laughable, the graphics are outdated. But there is so much fun to be had with the brave crustacean gladiators.

The return of Desperados should be maybe more accurately called “The return of Shadow Tactics”, but that’s not a bad thing at all. Desperados 3 hasn’t lost any of the sneaky charm of the previous game and it adds new stuff to do, too.

This is a fantastic remaster that captures the spirit of the original and clothes it in wonderfully remade graphics. It also adds new features and other bonuses. This is a way to do it.

This crazy, creative little game is worth praising for its originality and worth damning for its stupid story. The only way you’ll love this is if the author’s humour exactly matches your own.

A very solid team shooter that takes its inspiration from both Counter-Strike and Overwatch, and yet feels like its own thing. It’s a lot of fun and runs on a potato - but there’s not that much content at the moment.

It’s quite evident that The Pillar is heavily inspired by The Witness, but the quality is just not there. There are good, original moments, but the puzzles are generally far too easy.

This Wild West can be a bit unfair, but at the same time it’s a fun, addictive shooter experience with a brilliant atmosphere and the unmistakable voice of the great Ron Perlman.

The new Trackmania brings exactly what you’d expect - speed, precision, addiction. But a lot of players could be turned away by its controversial subscription system.

This is another PS4 exclusive that’s well worth the asking price, even though it’s severely limited by the aging hardware. But that ceases to matter when you experience the perfectly crafted gameplay without a shade of motion sickness.

Mortal Kombat once again proves that it belongs among the best in the fighting game genre. Everything here is just so very good - the gameplay, the graphics, the story. There are issues, however, with lagging because of poor server connection.

Ghost of Tsushima isn’t very original gameplay-wise and its open world feels a bit tired, but the sheer quality of content, the stylish action, the fantastic sound design and the beautiful environment make this a must-play.

Stand against not only natural disasters and human failures, but also against yourself and a huge, unrelenting pressure. This is a highly addictive game which will entertain and educate you. That’s why we have games.

A fun survival experience crossed with a social study of the Russian Revolution. It’s pleasantly realistic but also strongly dependent on chance which, in the end, proves to be its downfall.

Xenoblade Chronicles is a stylish example of how to work with a brand across Nintendo consoles. Fans of the genre will be delighted, its detractors certainly will not.

I’d expect more creativity from Minecraft and a longer campaign from a Diablo clone. Still, the result is an interesting hybrid especially for those not willing to brave the dark depths of Diablo or Path of Exile.

This collection of old-school board games, party games and minigames should be a staple of every Switch console. But if you want to enjoy it to the fullest, buy yourself some Joy-Cons!

The Last of Us: Part 2 has no competition among current single-player survivals in terms of playability, atmosphere, graphics, sound or storytelling skills. Naughty Dog has once again confirmed that it belongs at the absolute top of the game.

Hundreds of hours of concentrated fun for every avid strategy gamer - but Panzer Corps 2 is surprisingly welcoming even to the newbies of the genre. The complexity is served up gradually, mercifully, but in the end, the game will challenge even the most experienced generals.

The industry forgot to call and tell the authors that they are way behind what’s fashionable. There might be a good game hidden somewhere inside but, unfortunately, no one cares. Which, for a competitive multiplayer game, is a death sentence.

This is not more of the same, this is not an optional add-on to the original game. This, my friends, is the perfect experience, down to the last letter, down to the last minute. Persona 5 Royal is a Japanese crown jewel.

Smaller, shorter, more straightforward. Chimera Squad builds on the brilliant foundations laid by XCOM 2 but fails to completely replicate its magic, let down by an awful camera, many bugs and several strange design decisions.

MotoGP is hamstrung by its yearly periodicity, unable to fulfill its considerable potential. There are several good additions in the new installment, but all of them feel shallow and, in the end, inconsequential.

When we compile a list of the greatest surprises of the year, we certainly won’t forget Gears Tactics. This is a full-blooded, genuine turn-based strategy with its own identity that will please both seasoned strategists and connoisseurs of preposterously huge biceps.

SnowRunner sets the bar for other similar simulators. It’s much better than its predecessors, there are hundreds of hours of content, the game looks great and it boasts the most satisfying vehicle physics of all time.

Sakura Wars is more an interactive anime than a proper computer game and could benefit from more gameplay choices, but in the end, it is, kind of miraculously, really fun to play.

I understand why, once upon a time, this game was a fan favourite but it simply isn’t good enough by today’s standards. The gameplay could be quite interesting even now if the remaster, or rather the port, wasn’t so incredibly bare-bones.

This atmospheric adventure game is nothing special gameplay-wise but outweighs its weaknesses by good narrative choices and clever puzzles. Get lost in the woods. You’ll enjoy it.
