    • 69 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    An atmospherically dense, but narratively weak tactical game that can't hold a candle to its outstanding predecessor, Mutant Year Zero.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Fine retro shooter in the Warhammer universe that would be even better with automap, editor or multiplayer mode and more enemy variety.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Necrom combines a wonderful story, stunning areas, and a fun new Arcanist class with overly tedious combat.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Entertaining DLC, which is surprisingly fun as an alternative to the main game, but is over too quickly.

    Revival: Recolonization has many ideas to find its niche in the classic Civilization-4X genre. But their implementation is lacking. [Early Access Review]
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Fast-paced shooter revival of the first F.E.A.R., mixed with stylish acrobatics and fantastic gunplay.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Opulently presented action RPG that regards the action part very uncompromisingly - certainly too uncompromising for some fans of the series.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Quotation forthcoming.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Enchanting story game that takes both a critical and a cordial look at employment in a hospital, but does not do without drawbacks.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Entertaining amusement park manager with extensive roller coaster construction and encouraging upgrade system. Accessibility is more important than realism.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 89 Critic Score
    The exciting story mode, the motivating F1 world and considerably improved handling make F1 23 an exceptional racing game.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 89 Critic Score
    Diablo 4 is a masterpiece action RPG that only runs out of steam in the final meters of the endgame.
    • 92 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Capcom learns from its mistakes and delivers one of the most fun Street Fighter games in the series' history.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Mageseeker delights with action-packed combat if you can overlook the crude story and some superfluous features.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Age of Wonder 4 sets its own accents and does its job very well. Yet, the gameplay is still too one-dimensional for the genre crown.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 59 Critic Score
    Stray Blade wants too much and fails to deliver most of it satisfactorily. You're better off playing Elden Ring again.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    A delightful 3D variant of RimWorld with some fresh ideas, but it needs more variety in combat and everyday life.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 92 Critic Score
    Mario Kart 8 is the reliable assurance of fun for any evening with friends and it is by far the best arcade racer across all platforms.
    • tbd Metascore
    • Critic Score
    Silica at this point holds exciting promise for the future. [Early Access review]
    • tbd Metascore

    I can recommend Big Ambitions to anyone who has always wanted to know what it's like to start your own business and see it thrive and flourish.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    A fast-paced mix of turn-based tactics and action elements. Partly confusing combat areas with cool events. Little tactical depth.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Tours and Tournaments and its patch bring the map and your vassals to life more than ever. But the balance is not keeping pace.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Solid application with a lot of potential. Delightful pastime for simulation fans.
    • tbd Metascore
    • Critic Score
    If the Chinese developers listen to their fans and throw their weird combat power system overboard, nothing stands in the way of success. [Early Access Review]
    • 71 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Disappointing Star Trek adventure that badly needs additional polish and bug fixes to be at least mediocre.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Management simulation with steam engine nostalgia and a motivating passenger and goods system. More comprehensive and accessible than the first part.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Well-made but somewhat dry space sandbox for future rocket engineers.
    • 38 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    A monotonous, frustrating adventure game that wouldn't be fun even without the severe bugs and performance problems.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    System Shock is a very faithful remake that sacrifices a lot of potential for modernization for its nostalgia.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Fun arcade racer for young and old Lego fans that absolutely didn't need a cash shop or any season passes.
