A delightful remake of an exciting crossover between Lovecraftian myths and the unshakeable logic of Sherlock Holmes.- GameStar

The game is finished and at least sometimes it' even possible to buy additional content. As far as the shop problems go, it almost seems fitting that the game is called LoL. Still, the fast battles between the heroes are highly motivating.- GameStar

Pure arcade racing fun that properly captures the charm of the Hot Wheels brand. Track editor shortcomings and an expensive Day-One DLC are however bothersome.- GameStar

It's like the 2007 game Dungeon Runners, just bigger and less self-deprecating. There is no great story, but who cares if it's free and fills the gap until Diablo 3 is finished.- GameStar

The game has been out in Russia for almost two years and now proves to be an insiders’ tip. The maps are huge, up to 25 square kilometers and there are up to 1.500 units on them. The graphics are dated, the background music can be annoying, but the game itself is thrilling and offers a lot of tactical depth.- GameStar

Since Doom in 2016, no shooter has played so well for me and has motivated me so much to further develop my character's abilities and weapons. Here lies the greatest strength of Rage 2: lure me with skills that actually feel like an improvement...However, thanks to the monotonous missions and the empty open world, Rage 2 runs out of steam after only five to six hours of play.- GameStar

This sequel ignores the less popular Broken Sword 3 and 4. One the one hand that's great, because it revives the atmosphere of the first two games and it works. But technically it's not up to date and the important puzzles are too easy to solve. But there's hope for part 2.- GameStar

The online RPG The Chronicles of Spellborn suffers from a lack of players, so there is hardly any PvP and some tasks are almost impossible to be done alone. There are still too many bugs to attract more players, but once they are fixed, the game could be a nice alternative to the main players of the genre.- GameStar
