    Lazily modernized graphics, completely outdated gameplay: This remake of a classic is only for the most nostalgic of veterans.

    If you can look past the bland setting and the repetitive gameplay, this well-balanced genre mix could be your thing.

    Great tactical depth and varied turn based combat in a dark SciFi setting. Interesting scenario, but disappointing story line.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    This adventure borrows liberally from some obvious role models, but fails to live up to their examples, despite innovative audio mechanics.

    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.

    Solid oldschool turn based tactics game, based on the Netflix series. Lacks any highlights, both gameplay- or storywise.

    This atmospheric resistance management game may not be a perfect game, but it’s an important one. Especially in this day and age.

    A fun zombie shooter for coop players, though without innovative elements. Beware of in-game purchases and pay walls.

    The remaster stays far below its possibilities and makes multiplayer worse than in the original. The single-player campaign is still great.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Funny, ludicrous, very colorful and full of action. A nice SciFi-Adventure with a little potential for frustration.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    The mechanics are still compelling and seem undestructable. There are only slight technical improvements to the remaster, controls are still a nuisance.

    This playable Anime is a must for every Fan of Dragon Ball Z. The game world would need to play a bigger part to make this a hit.

    AO Tennis 2 is a solid and comprehensive simulation. The lackluster role playing elements prevent a higher rating, though.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Simple interactive adventure game with lots of emotion and atmosphere.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    A game like a comic book, driven by its snarky story. Gameplay suffers from weak gunplay and repetition, though.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    Great sandbox fun with a strong action aspect and lots of fair, creative riddles using challenging game mechanics.

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

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

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

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

    A bee’s life can be a bit boring, but it’s a touching interactive story.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    The first DLC for Borderlands 3 boasts a lot of gags and crazy characters. Nothing new in the gameplay department, though.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    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.

    Transport Fever 2 is not a re-invention of the genre, but a considerable improvement of tried and tested gameplay principles.

    Here we have a DLC, which does not playfully reinvent the Anno wheel, but keeps it running with more complexity.

    Mechwarrior 5 looks really good - but apart from the nice brute mech battles, it's just too bloodless.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    That Halo: Reach for PC is a must-have for fans, I do not have to tell you here again.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    A surreal and nightmarish adventure with great art design and intense atmosphere, but not very challenging.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Thanks to relatable heroes and streamlined gameplay, this isometric Hack & Slay is a blessing for the slightly worn Darksiders series.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Almost identical to XCOM 2 in visuals and gameplay, although not as polished. Hit zones provide more tactical depth, though.
