    Surviving the Aftermath offers sound building sim gameplay, but it loses a lot of potential due to grind and missing content.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Charming puzzle action-adventure with novel vacuum cleaner alien-slime mechanics. It can be completed on a cozy evening.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Beginner-friendly tavern building sim with a lot going on, yet little depth. Okay for a while, too repetitive in the long run.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    The cute horror game in the style of Tim Burton offers a unique combat system. However, balancing issues and a lack of variety impair the fun.

    • 85 Critic Score
    This indie gem guides through an emotional-nostalgic trip of personal history, relaxed and with a few small puzzles.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Strong, extensive rally simulation with outstanding courses.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    A slightly different blue-collar simulator that often does not take itself too seriously and thus becomes unique.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Exo One delights with innovation and an immersive atmosphere - if you let it.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    An authentic remake of the classic role-playing game with impressive technology, but it's missing more than two-thirds of the original's content.

    The potential of this survival game, with what is probably the most realistic water physics to date, is indeed enormous. [Early Access]

    Who would have thought that an Early Access game these days would come onto the market in a more complete state than some of the triple-A blockbusters. Bugs and glitches are negligible and are fixed remarkably prompt. Myth of Empires is an exciting project, which, especially at its full release, could shake up the genre. [Early Access]

    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.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Halo: Infinite falters at its open world, yet it delights with sophisticated shooter gameplay and a varied arsenal of weapons.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    As demanding as it is gratifying. People with low frustration resistance are better off skipping Aiko's Choice.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Astonishing action journey through a gorgeous universe with daring flight manoeuvres, cool space battles and an intriguing heroine.

    Excellent DLC that finally makes the long-neglected Soviet Union in Hearts of Iron 4 exciting to play.

    I've been playing Gordian Quest way longer than necessary. [Early Access Review]
    • 90 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Exciting construction and management sim with great gameplay flow. It does require a lot of imagination and thought. Caution: addictive!
    • 76 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Skyrim is still magnificent, but a collection of moderately executed additional content does not justify the new price for an old game.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Consistent further development of the timeless concept. Better than ever before thanks to seasons, production chains and the detailed vehicle fleet.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    Battlefield 2042 contains a great multiplayer shooter sandbox that is buried under half-baked game design, bugs and performance issues.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    Even if the charm of the originals reveals itself every now and then - these masterpieces deserve a better remake.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    In Chapter One we don't puzzle as intensely as in Crimes and Punishment, but we sink into Holmes' world more seamlessly than ever.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Popcorn shooter with an enormous and sophisticated multiplayer, some story deficiencies and quite a short co-op.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    This solo work demonstrates that a linear shooter campaign can be as entertaining as the largest open-world.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    Consistent continuation of the main game for better and for worse. Excellent characters and morbid humour, although it takes a lot of patience.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    FM 2022 remains undisputedly the best choice for PC soccer management, but we are missing some groundbreaking innovations.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A masterful open-world racer in an unforgettable setting - would have benefited from a little more courage to innovate.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Fun building sim with numerous improvements over its predecessor. The dinosaurs are still the main attraction.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Sports spectacle in a massive world: Despite numerous minor flaws, Riders Republic is a playground complete with excitement.
