    Great setting, but it's more or less another Call of Duty clone with some nice ideas. But everything feels like the game just had to be released, so a lot of potential hasn't been realised yet. Maybe that's something for the sequel.

    if you like to spend a lot of time thinking about organising an army and love historical accuracy, then you might add 10 points to our review score. But if you want to go to battle and prefer a logical system for research and economy, try the demo first.

    Fortunately, the accessibility of Halfway provides an easy introduction.

    It gets really scary towards the end of the game, when the madness slowly takes over.

    Pure Farming 2018 is a gameplay alternative to Farming Simulator. Get on the field.

    I have to praise for Arcane, the level design has really pleased me despite backtracking.

    Ambitious sci-fi investigation for clues about expatriates on Mars, which technically doesn't meet its own standards.

    A rock-solid RTS with mass battles, but only for fans of multiplayer and skirmish. The campaign turns out to be a sad affair.

    The Definitive Edition has fulfilled its most important goals. It revives the first Age of Empires in a more beautiful way than in the memory of the most nostalgic - and removes enough of the legacy that I can enjoy today just as much as it used to. Above all, I can hardly wait to see what the developers will do with the Definitive Edition of the second part.

    Jumping lacks a little bit of precision, but if you can ignore this, you’ll get a engaging, albeit short package of fun.

    It's just as thrilling as the Nintendo DS version. It may have only 150 different units, but offers lots of varied missions, motivating side missions and officers.

    Fishing: Barents Sea has plenty of idle time, but also cool ideas - and is anything but a sea cucumber.

    Rainbow Six Extraction offers an atmospheric co-op experience with clever gameplay mechanics that make up for its minor flaws.

    The game offers 25 songs from Aerosmith, but hits like „Crazy“, „Cryin‘“ or „I don’t want to miss a thing“ are not included. There are 15 more songs from other artists like Lenny Kravitz, Joan Jett or The Cult. It’s still fun, but if you are an Aerosmith fan, you’d like to play the hits, not second rate songs.

    This sequel ignores the less popular Broken Sword 3 and 4. One the one hand that's great, because it revives the atmosphere of the first two games and it works. But technically it's not up to date and the important puzzles are too easy to solve. But there's hope for part 2.

    Ghost Recon: Wildlands offers an ingenious open world but a uniform mission design. Playing creatively in co-op offers the most fun.

    It's hard to understand why the main problems of the part one haven't been solved. It's basically Magicka 1.5 with some improved graphics.

    A good sequel to a classic that too often forgets its own virtues.

    Now Crytek has jumped onto the remaster train and is stepping into the trap it has built for itself: To release a new edition of a 13-year-old game in 2020, which again needs a really expensive PC for full graphics power, is a crazy idea.

    With its artistic and creative approach, Bulwark offers a genuine experience, which may however quickly become boring for some types of players.

    Simple interactive adventure game with lots of emotion and atmosphere.

    Beautiful to behold, but gameplay-wise undemanding feel-good escapism with a great sense of freedom that invites you to relax and dream.

    Despite a very atmospheric world and fun basic idea it requires a huge amount of grind and is suitable especially for players with a lot of patience.

    If you are a cycling enthusiast and need up to date season details, then regrettably there is no alternative to this game. Everybody else should ignore this expensive update that doesn't offer a single relevant improvement.

    Doom VFR is a short but entertaining hellride. But the bloody VR fun lacks the ease and elegance of the original.

    The graphics may be from 2011, but the story and the combat system are great. It has everything you can expect from a Final Fantasy title.
