    So far, the cult simulator is quite promising. Sound, appearance and the humorous mood go together very well and convey a convincing 70s atmosphere. [Early Access Review]

    • 78 Critic Score
    A detective adventure with lots of conversation and exciting cases in a varied steampunk world.

    Change sides: In this RPG with base building and turn-based battles, you play cute goblins - but game design flaws spoil the good mood.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Atmospheric strategy game with high entry hurdle that is worth overcoming.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Even if the framework does not appeal to you, the game scores with a motivating combat and loot system, a great level and welter design and exciting boss battles.

    Looks like Rome was ahead of its time: raw materials weren't transported, they were teleported. At least that's what happens in Grand Ages: Rome, because the focus of the game is not on building effective transportation. Instead you need to build an efficient economy. This can be quite motivating if you enjoy being rewarded for your city planning.

    Layers of Fear is a great experience, recommended for everyone who doesn't need monsters in a horror game.

    Welcome to Bullworth Academy, a melting pot of high school stereotypes. Outsiders are making plans to rule the world, teachers terrorize their pupils, sports aces and rock 'n rollers try to impress the girls while the posh students wrinkle their nose. While the GTA-style game itself is well done, the technical conversion to the PC is a bit sloppy. Should you ever be asked why video games are a cultural asset, show them Bully.

    There's still a lot to do for the developers, but if you like the DC universe and want to get away from World of Warcraft, give this game a chance. Even if you don't pay monthly fees it's still a full co-op action game.

    • 85 Critic Score
    A brave new start which sacrifices the traditional elements of trade and tough competition and replaces them with a truly epic endless game.

    • 85 Critic Score
    The first DLC is a worthy expansion and introduces creative ideas. The new story is almost consistently wonderfully entertaining.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Fun village builder in a well-made historical setting. However, the game suffers from heavy grind and a lack of endgame variety.

    Atomfall is a game that comes with nooks and crannies, but one that captivates us to the end with its great story.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    It's very thrilling for a short time, but the limited amount of weapons and levels will bring you back down to earth quite fast. It's still a dynamic and action-packed shooter with great graphics, but doesn't offer much in the long term.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda is a gigantic science fiction epic and a brave new start for the series, but it doesn't completely capture the magic of its predecessors.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    A captivating detective narrative that fascinates with its unusual tech-noir setting and a myriad of ways to solve the game.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    The gameplay wise rather simple The Invincible backs it's beautiful sci-fi panoramas with a captivating and thought-provoking story.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Fast-paced real-time strategy with a good Terminator atmosphere, lots of micromanagement and dramatic battles. Controls sometimes too fiddly.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Technically impressive open world in the Alps, but the winter sports simulation lacks long time motivation and diversity.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A successful mix of bullet hell, crafting and FPS with old school charm, but little variety.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    It's like an alternative Fallout with simple turn-based fights and old school atmosphere. A good tip for Fallout veterans.

    • 78 Critic Score
    Battlefront is a mainstream shooter without too many problems. But apart from the Star Wars atmosphere is doesn't offer anything special.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    Cooperative and family-friendly sandbox adventure with a few roleplay elements without strategic depth, but with an entertaining build mode.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    Tactically challenging, but in terms of content rather trivial superhero battles.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    EA FC 25 feels like possession soccer devoid of ideas - lots of control, but too little real innovation.

    • 72 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    A well executed and family-friendly LEGO game with new ideas and old weaknesses, but much better than the last few LEGO titles.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 61 Critic Score
    Technically outdated turn-based tactics with tedious gameplay. Only the multiplayer is worthwhile for fans.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    By today's standards the shootings are too static for my taste. In combination with the annoying graphics bugs, it is difficult for me to make an unreserved recommendation. If you just want to experience an adult story again that takes itself and its character seriously, then don't hesitate. But if you also hope for a dynamic gaming experience, there are certainly better alternatives by now.
