    AO Tennis 2
    AO Tennis 2 is a solid and comprehensive simulation. The lackluster role playing elements prevent a higher rating, though.
    • 69 Metascore

    The Wanderer: Frankenstein's Creature
    Simple interactive adventure game with lots of emotion and atmosphere.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Void Bastards
    A game like a comic book, driven by its snarky story. Gameplay suffers from weak gunplay and repetition, though.

    Supraland
    Great sandbox fun with a strong action aspect and lots of fair, creative riddles using challenging game mechanics.

    Oxygen Not Included
    Oxygen Not Included is a challening, complex survival building game for creative tinkerers and fans of automatisation.

    Monster Hunter: World - Iceborne
    Iceborne challenges veterans with new monsters, mechanics and a detailed endgame area, newbies will enjoy themselves as well.

    Kingdom Under Fire II
    The actionpacked battles are fun for a while, but story, quests and the whole MMO part of the game are tiresome.

    Baba Is You
    Sokoban meets programming language logic – probably the best puzzle game 2019.

    Bee Simulator
    A bee’s life can be a bit boring, but it’s a touching interactive story.
    • 75 Metascore

    Borderlands 3: Moxxi's Heist of the Handsome Jackpot
    The first DLC for Borderlands 3 boasts a lot of gags and crazy characters. Nothing new in the gameplay department, though.

    Life is Strange 2
    All in all, it's a fairly well told road trip story. After a strong start, the finale fumbles in the logic department, to many questions are left unanswered.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Transport Fever 2
    Transport Fever 2 is not a re-invention of the genre, but a considerable improvement of tried and tested gameplay principles.

    Anno 1800: The Passage
    Here we have a DLC, which does not playfully reinvent the Anno wheel, but keeps it running with more complexity.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries
    Mechwarrior 5 looks really good - but apart from the nice brute mech battles, it's just too bloodless.

    Halo: Reach Remastered
    That Halo: Reach for PC is a must-have for fans, I do not have to tell you here again.
    • 70 Metascore

    Mosaic
    A surreal and nightmarish adventure with great art design and intense atmosphere, but not very challenging.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Darksiders Genesis
    Thanks to relatable heroes and streamlined gameplay, this isometric Hack & Slay is a blessing for the slightly worn Darksiders series.
    • 74 Metascore

    Phoenix Point
    Almost identical to XCOM 2 in visuals and gameplay, although not as polished. Hit zones provide more tactical depth, though.

    Red Dead Online

    Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts
    The graphics settings are too poor for me as a PC player.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Lost Ember
    Lost Ember lives from his sensitive story and the picturesque atmosphere. The animal characteristics, however, seem like a squandered gimmick due to the complete absence of puzzles.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Superliminal
    For people who value games based mainly on the cost-to-game ratio, Superliminal is definitely a flop.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 54 Critic Score
    RUNE II: Decapitation Edition
    The concept reads really interesting on paper. Also the lore and mythology can be quite appealing for inclined players. But all the construction sites reduce the fun at crucial points.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    The Sims 4: Discover University
    The robotic construction has really scared me off, because crafting combined with the constant electric shock is a nasty time eater - although the servos really have a lot of charm!
    • 65 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Blacksad: Under the Skin
    The cumbersome control passages also disturb the flow of the game rather than doing anything for Blacksad.

    Football Manager 2020
    The Football Manager is again this year the first choice for all who want to lead their favorite club on the home computer to success.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Terminator: Resistance
    As of now, Terminator: Resistance is no more than a grabber box candidate for fans of the movies or the genre.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Asgard's Wrath
    Quotation forthcoming.
    • 81 Metascore

    Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order
    Developer Respawn builds a Star Wars adventure that constantly reminds me why I fell in love with the Skywalker saga as a child. Fallen Order is a love letter to the classic trilogy, respects the clone wars, and shows me the dark era of the Empire like no other Star Wars story before.
