    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.

    Well-made Monster Hunter clone that delights with fresh ideas, but suffers from technical issues.

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

    Comfortable and challenging, only the variety is missing: Terrascape is the Sudoku of the construction genre.

    An insider's tip for creative and patient rocket engineers who are not afraid of a little bit of grinding.

    The stylish exploration adventure full of beautiful areas manages to delight even without combat. However, the gaming experience is currently impaired by bugs.

    Tunic is a wonderful Dark Souls alternative that fails to strike a fair balance.

    Gord interprets the construction genre differently. It relies on story instead of complexity, with all the strengths and weaknesses that entails.

    Halo Wars is a great fan service and a solid strategy game, the co-op campaign makes it worth a look for all RTS gamers.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Huge adventure playground with some little quirks, for stealth fans with a knack for experiments.
    • 81 Metascore

    Gearbox mixed a first person shooter with a role playing game and slightly missed the mark. After 20 levels you've basically seen everything, the story is very thin and still you keep playing to collect more items. The setting and the good graphics deserved more than that.

    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.

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

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