While Crimes and Punishments was an outstanding game, Devil's Daughter is pure mediocrity. More quick time events are a step in the wrong direction.

The core game works surprisingly well, the dynamic space battles make for some great moments - and what a sublime feeling it is, if one has been bitten again.

It's an open world RPG for extremely patient and cooperative settlers who can also stand a lot of grinding for resources and skills.

I really like Wolcen very much. This talent tree - complex and full of variants on the one hand and user-friendly on the other hand without gaps - has been my wish for Path of Exile for years...The cutscenes are also great. It's just a shame that the story runs out of air in the last third.

Not a great year and a PC downgrade: FIFA 22 still plays well, but its PC version is graphically limited and offers little innovation.

It may be a simple game with unspectacular graphics, a thin story and an out-of-date presentation, but it's still good enough to be played occasionally. If you liked Blazing Angels, you can't go wrong with Heroes over Europe.

Empire of Sin offers solid turn-based tactics, a swag 20s gangster setting and an economic layer; however, it lacks depth and polishing.

Past Cure with its mix of stealth and action is entertaining. After the moderate entry, the mysterious story picks up speed.

Quotation forthcoming.

One of the most disputed game series is back and expectations are as big as the name. It turns out to be a decent game, but there are not enough innovation to make it a great game. The multi-player mode is entertaining, but not as good as it was.

Suicide Squad offers entertaining action, but feeds all of its potential to the insatiable hunger for service.

Biomutant is an open-world with (too) many original ideas, none of which really work.

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.

Improved visuals, the typical Resident Evil feeling and zombies. If you can accept the shortcomings, you should give it a try.

Fast-paced mecha action game with great aesthetics, but problems with controls and story.

The Void has its fascinating sides, lucid colors on dull grey, bizarrely warped beings, floating bodies and bare breast. Surrealism plays a huge role in this otherwise quite simple game. Using an out-of-date function like time limits is simply annoying. But the game manages to surprise from time to time and is still worth giving it a try, despite the weaknesses.

It took seven years to finish this game. It's a bit like a huge box of Legos without a manual. Lot's of great parts, but it takes some time and work until everything fits together. With a bit more design it could have been a milestone of simulation games.

Kingdoms and Castles is plain and modest in a good way. However, due to the lack of content, there is a lack of long-term motivation.

The fights are fun, but the same opponents and surroundings become boring very fast. There's no story to speak of, which is a shame regarding a license like Watchmen. The arguments between both heroes and the multi-player mode are fun, though.

Despite dusty graphics and annoying teenager protagonists, Until Dawn is excellent spooky entertainment for a Halloween evening - but the tech is not working as intended.

Quotation forthcoming.

During the first four chapters, almost everything about Dark Sector is wrong: Boring levels, boring weapons and complicated controls. After he commits a murder for no apparent reason even the main character becomes unlikeable. It all gets better later on, but there's a lot of wasted potential.

Inspired by the classic Alpha Centauri, it looks like a modern version at first glance, but lacks the depth and long term motivation.

One Piece Odyssey is a mediocre JRPG with slow progression. The charming adaptation still makes fans happy.

3D remake of the 1994 classic with 14 races and tons of troop types and spells. Few comfort functions, needs a lot of patience.

Cooperative and family-friendly sandbox adventure with a few roleplay elements without strategic depth, but with an entertaining build mode.

An enjoyable co-op shooter that doesn't know what it wants to be - other than taking your money.

The developers just ignored the releases of the last four years, so everthing in this game is way out of date: AI, mission designs, physics and online mode. Get Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit instead.
