    Fabulous, but very short VR adventure with innovative puzzle mechanics, great synchronization and an unique atmosphere.

    Looks and plays great, but the career mode lacks lot of elements from earlier games.

    Three Brothers, one woman, one destiny: the tragic story of the McCalls in Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood is one of the best ever told in an action game. If you're looking for a diverse (albeit linear) shooter with a great story, duels and chases, this is the game for you.

    A logical update to its predecessor, but many of the new features still appear to be taken straight out of Early Access.

    Funny online shooter, easy to learn and very addictive. A welcome surprise with lots of humor.

    No linear levels, no historical correctness. Medal of Honor: Airborne needs getting used to, but then it's World War fast food - easily digested, very entertaining and over much too soon.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Undemanding story adventure with the inspirating theme about dying and the profession of a undertaker.

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

    Imagine Earth is a solid strategy sim with Civilization elements that lacks esprit and reflection on its theme.

    It's longer, funnier and more diverse than the first game, so it's simply better. But we really want to see a better character system – or more of that kind of humor in Diablo 3.

    The outstanding feature of Tabula Rasa isn't it's futuristic setting, but it's fighting system. Instead of the usual clicking on symbols, it offers real time battles. Richard Garriott's latest creation may have its weaknesses, but it's a MMO with personality.

    On the one hand, there are the open world and the freedom to do what you want to do, on the other hand, the world is lifeless. It's a great game for some people, but the opposite for most.

    An unsettling action-adventure game dealing with war and humanity, that still has some minor technical issues.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    A solid VR shooter with dense atmosphere and alien bonus that lacks the finishing touches.

    Despite the cultist scenario, the story of Far Cry 5 is a total disappointment, but thanks to the gameplay it's at least a good FPS.

    This hidden strategy gem with gorgeous graphics and convincing production value suffers from minor flaws and annoyances.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Decent tactical battles, which however quickly become boring, have no greater connection and fail due to camera and AI problems.

    Star Trek fans can't miss this experience, but the lacking content and some problems leave a bad taste in our mouths.

    8 point more than the nearly identical predecessor? Yes, because Tropico 4 is a lot more polished and easier to unterstand. And there is a story with surprises and funny radio moderators.

    Creepy disturbing family drama with feature length and escape-room-flair. Shallow gameplay but intense - especially in VR.

    A beautiful truck sandbox with road construction that isn't as prominent as expected.

    • 74 Critic Score
    An unshakeable gameplay core and some minor innovations save this technically completely outdated game from being a complete letdown.

    Behind the browser game aesthetics and the somewhat forced humor there’s demanding tactical combat on par with Darkest Dungeon.

    Finally there’s a multi-player mode and it’s excellent, too. There are 15 different settings for single players and much more. Whether you like to play all alone or you prefer to play with or against others, you’ll enjoy Anno 1404: Venice.

    The best dating sim in a long time and a creative firework of character design and captivating dialog.

    The large amount of traps and power-ups keeps you playing and the combination with Hack & Slay is well done.
