Captivating mix of Metroidvania, beat-em-up and platform action - the Persian prince is in top shape.

It shouldn't be fun to be a small cog wheel in a huge dictatorial gear box but it's fun to find out where your personal limits are, where the fun ends and when it's time for reflection.

Doom is a great tribute to old times in a modern form. If you like fast shooters, there's nothing better at the moment.

The Old Republic gives me exactly what I expect as a fan: Star Wars atmosphere till the cow comes home. I can flail around with lightsabers, fight spectacular space battles and roam around on the famous planets from the template. And indeed, the quests comply with genre standards. And well, the combat system is not particularly innovative. But on the other hand I get a customised story for myself, which drives me with the aid of the the dialogue, really cool AI companions and the freedom of choice into the game in an outstanding wise – this is something that I never witnessed in an online role-playing game in this way. I can already see myself levelling up all eight classes to level 50, just to experience the terrific story.

A strong story add-on with a beautiful new map, but few gameplay innovations.

Chaos Rising is great addition to Dawn of War 2 and manages to impress with speed, thrilling battles and a motivating story – at the cost of less complexity and strategy.

Another magnificent Anno game that sets new priorities and offers greater freedom, but does not quite reach the design heights of its predecessor yet.

Fun museum construction with funny artifacts and creative ideas, which suffers from the repetitive, random-based expedition mechanic.

I'd be lying if I said that I did not have fun with Shadow of Mordor, because it kept me entertained for 30 hours. Not on a superior level, but on a good, technically flawless one, whose objective quality one must be soberly recognized. But it has never affected me emotionally in that time, never surprised me, never gave me the feeling that I'd just played something special, something unique, something remarkable.

If you like those kind of games, it's probably the best of the last 25 years. It's a game of extremes, the graphics are simply annoying, but it can keep you playing one level for a whole day.

Horizon still has its weaknesses and sometimes feels overloaded with all of the open-world activities, crafting systems or an annoying fast travel system. If I ignore all of this, I have a world open to me that shines above all because it really has something to say - be it within its history or even how we deal with each other and our planet in reality. That is exactly what I miss in many open world games, in which the story likes to degenerate into a breadcrumb trail for all kinds of filling tasks.

The amazingly beautiful theme park lacks some management options and more complex gameplay.

An emotionally addictive adventure with simple gameplay. Its moving story will stay with you for a long time.

Sulani is definitely the most beautiful neighborhood in the game so far.

If you own the original game, you may be disappointed about the lack of changes. But if this is your first Street Figher game or you just like the genre, there's just no way around this one.

Beautiful, hand-drawn puzzle game that enchants the player with elegantly nested puzzles and a story without words.

A quite brutal dark fantasy RPG that forces you to rethink, lets heroes die and thus creates a very intensive experience.

Electronic Arts and Will Wright send you on a unique journey through Evolution. But it's less of a game and more of a colourful biological construction kit. Spore is sophisticated and rich in details, but all this is rarely noticeable because of its uninspired game play and lack of a story, which is such a pity. It's a paradise for creative gamers, but an expensive one, too. Electronic Arts asks 10 Euros more than usual - that's a rip off.

Great atmosphere and story as before, but visually it's a great step forward and recommended for new players.

Enter the Gungeon offers fresh and always fair pixel action and will be a thrill especially for Isaac fans.

Rarely has extinction been more fun. Frostpunk shows that successful build-up-strategy and a captivating story need not be a contradiction.
