    Deep gameplay meets an exciting storyline. The result is a must-have for the Switch 2.

    We expected much more from this game. It's a bit short with just 12 hours from start to finish, but it has a certain charm. It's fun to play around with abilities and upgrades and the story is entertaining, but the game itself is just slaughter and violence with a lack of variety.

    Another well-done Souls-like from the Nioh devs, whose setting and silly story you either like or better ignore.

    Fun management kick-off with a lot of Formula 1 atmosphere, yet lacks variety in the long run.

    A solid FIFA successor, that completely misses the chance to usher in a new era, though.

    The transfer of Homeworld from space battles to ground battles works very well. Great campaign, but AI and balancing problems disturb the fun.

    Varied road trip with memorable encounters and lots of emotions.

    As much as I like the oppressive atmosphere of the Space Station in Observation, the game works effectively for me only in the moments when the game takes control of me and I am a passive observer.

    It's a very motivating game with brilliantly designed levels, a great fantasy satire. Playing the ultimate evil Overlord again is just as funny as the first time and made us laugh a lot while testing the PC version.

    FEAR 2 doesn't manage to cause panic like its predecessor because Monolith uses the same well-known techniques again. But it's still fun to follow Alma. This time, it's more uncertainty than fear that keeps you playing.

    But a sadistic goose who happens to live in an English village and is a total A *******. Just like ... HEY!

    This is a complete make-over of the series. It’s faster, more diverse, more flexible and because of these changes it’s extremely thrilling, too. There are a lot of ways to win, so trying out new strategies is very entertaining.

    A real tactical shooter at last. Rainbow Six: Siege offers great and hard multiplayer battles, but it needs more content.

    A sympathetic declaration of love to JRPGs of days gone by with the same strengths and problems as back then.

    Overwatch 2 does some things differently than its predecessor, but it doesn't pass as a sequel.

    The magic word is perma-death and makes looking around for food and trying to survive thrilling. Technically it's mediocre but if you like zombies you need to play State of Decay.

    Civilisation 7 convinces with fresh ideas, but lacks the necessary finishing touch.

    High Hell's refreshing honesty and unfamiliar naivete have kept me entertained for at least a few hours...A minimalist, very entertaining and action-packed low budget shooter with the right dose of chaos, humor and madness.

    A great comeback for the Lego series with a great love for details and lots of comedy. But it's too easy for seasoned gamers and therefore targeted at a younger audience.

    The AI isn't terrible anymore, but still not good. Subtle, but numerous innovations provide more strategy and fun.

    iRacing is a very tough simulation and can only be recommended to gamers immune to frustration. Only real motoring fans should pay a monthly fee and even more for additional packs. The graphics give the impression of an unfinished beta, but at least the atmosphere between the players is always friendly.

    We especially like how well the developers preserve the spirit of the original, while at the same time extending the story in a meaningful way.

    Action-packed retro shooter with a huge arsenal of weapons, lot's of customization and ribald humor.

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