Millennia starts like Civ, but offers good mechanics such as alternative eras and construction sim elements. Weak AI and graphics.

A new Saga offshoot with lots of good, but not perfectly implemented ideas.

Brutal and action-packed co-op zombie shooter for up to six players. You'll have the most fun when playing with friends.

Great and thrilling dogfights with a fantastic VR port - but with very limited content.

If you really want to go deep into strategic battles and conquer every inch of the sometimes sprawling big cards, then Steel Division 2 is the place to go and gets tens of hours of entertainment with sophisticated battle strategies. However, those who do not like vigorous micromanagement should bypass the new digital Eastern Front.

If you don't give up because of the game's difficulty, you will be rewarded with a tatical depth that offers unequaled opportunities and exactly simulated weapon systems.

Tribes: Ascend has become for me a true love-hate relationship.

Strong, extensive rally simulation with outstanding courses.

Probably the best Wargame title yet, but with weaknesses regarding innovation and balance.

Varied road trip with memorable encounters and lots of emotions.

Despite the 3D graphics, Tropico 3 is basically the same game like the first version eight years ago. A lot of things are not up to date, but the mix of politics, economy, development and black humor is ageless. If you liked the first Tropico, you will love the new one.

Lots of replay value for a fair price - as long as you can handle a bit of frustration and retro graphics.

One year of game development probably wasn't enough. ProStreet has several weak points regarding technical execution, diversity and game balance. All in all, it's a good, but not great racing game, which doesn't do it's big name credit.

Setting and story make you think, without sermonizing. The gameplay needs improvements, though.

The concept of the long-distance space driving simulation Star Trucker works, but it lacks a bit of content for long-term motivation.

Still a well-told, atmospheric and oppressive adventure.

A solid sequel that thanks to its co-op mode offers some variety, but still doesn't have the courage to try enough new things.

I am disappointed by Control at a high level. In the beginning, the many mysteries and thus my curiosity pulls me through the game, but after a few hours disillusionment is spreading. The characters are as pale as the eternal hallways of the Old House monotonous. Hardly any opponent is a challenge if you regularly build Jesse's weapons and abilities at checkpoints.

Tactical fights, great story, fresh setting: Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus is the fresh wind the franchise needed.

Impressive treatment of the Romanian revolution in 1989, with minor weaknesses in the field of game mechanics.

The add-on brings a lot of new content but is not a mandatory purchase. Update 5.0 is much more important.

All in all, I would have liked a bit more narrative narrative and a more level-focused skill design that would not let me search the needle in a haystack in the vast world alone.

Enjoyable fighting game with a well presented story, slightly outdated multiplayer system, and weak invasion mode.

Quotation forthcoming.

An excellent football management sim, but it's lacking innovations of note.

The damage values in attacks are too arbitrary, the collision detection is not always optimal and wear of the weapons, at least initially more than annoying.

Total War: Pharaoh makes the best of a difficult setting, but can't mask all of its problems.

Anno 1800: Seat of Power provides the endgame with further excitement and motivation, in return it charges a princely fee.

I hate this game. And I love it. No other game managed to motivate me so often to have another go. But the crashes and some unfair situations are frustrating.

Drova manages to come close to the quality of a true Gothic game over long stretches, only the visuals and lack of spoken dialogue could be off-putting.

The robotic construction has really scared me off, because crafting combined with the constant electric shock is a nasty time eater - although the servos really have a lot of charm!

It's like the silent and scatterbrained little brother of Super Meat Boy, simple, beautiful, challenging and fair. Multiplayer shows the real potential of the game.

If you know the movies you'll feel right at home. Egon Spengler still talks like a scientist, Ray Stantz still has his love handles and Peter Venkman can't walk past a woman without trying to flirt. The game is also full of insider jokes regarding the movies. But it's to short and the PC version lacks the co-op mode.

Brilliant modern military shooter with a strong campaign and excellent gunplay, but in many respects a foundation for subsequent updates.

Titans offers several hours of exciting mid- to end-game content that fits perfectly into the existing item hunt.

I have been annoyed by the sometimes extreme random factor.

Precisely because it is about dreams and fears, I forgive Little Nightmares 2 for this deliberately vague narrative style and I am all the more delighted with the playful and artistic freedom that the studio takes.

A devoted remake of a classic that is almost as enchanting as the original.

Broken Steel raises the maximum level to 30, adds 14 new special talents and allows you to explore the world even after finishing the game. That’s all good, but it’s probably coming out too late for most Fallout gamers.

A grandiose licensed game that makes up for minor flaws with creative game mechanics.

Visually and gameplay-wise Oceanhorn is a good Zelda clone with lots of charme, definitely worth a journey by sailing boat.

A good, fast, accessible, and - thanks to unit gathering and nuclear arm - motivating strategy game.

Only the combat system is not precise and varied enough for me, a little more fine-tuning would have been necessary here. But that makes up for the charming indie game with charm and its unique graphic style.

More than a year after the console versions, the Ultimate Sith Edition arrives for PC. The game suffers from problems with controls and balance and because it’s a quite linear game. But it’s Star Wars, nicely presented, with great atmosphere and new missions. And that’s more important in this case.

Solely thanks to its fantastic presentation and the sympathetic characters Broken Age can still warm my heart, but the great love is gone.

Quotation forthcoming.

With Cradle of Humanity, X4 is more than ever suited for newcomers, although still not a game for everyone.

Flashy action and a compelling story! Only mission design and technical issues slow down MW5: Clans.

Knights of Honor 2 inherits a lot from its predecessor, both its strengths and shortcomings. But as Total War light it is convincing.

If you win, it's because you planned your moves right and not because you've been lucky. And if you lose, then just because of your bad planning. This makes Frozen Synapse different and so motivating.

Humankind is not a perfectly polished, yet extensively exciting and intricate strategy game.

Quotation forthcoming.

Colorful and chaotic Battle Royale fun, though currently lacking variety, content and long term motivation.

Quotation forthcoming.

Quotation forthcoming.

Atmospheric mystery thriller with first-class actors, a great story and unfortunately too little playing time.

At the first glance, Lawbreakers appears insane and soulless, a huge drawback with the mass of current multiplayer shooters and the high competitive pressure. It would be a pity to dismiss Lawbreakers so easily: fans of competitive shooters could miss a real pearl here, which with free new maps, modes and heroes may become even better.

Barotrauma is an exciting, cooperative resource management game that is also captivating in Singleplayer thanks to its deep atmosphere.

A fantastic role-playing game with fun fights and great story, but the gameplay becomes a test of patience.

Quotation forthcoming.

Wonderfully action-packed multiplayer shooter with plenty of Aliens vibe, it is however only really enjoyable with human players.

The game offers 25 songs from Aerosmith, but hits like „Crazy“, „Cryin‘“ or „I don’t want to miss a thing“ are not included.

Trials Fusion has some problems regarding missing content, but there's hope the community will create lots of it. At the core it's a very entertaining fun-racer already.
