    • 85 Critic Score
    Great, extensive, colorful theme park simulation for roller coaster and park manager - even with snack stand supply system.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    Overkill's The Walking Dead can be fun in a group but most of the time monotony and balancing weaknesses are frustrating.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Complex, serious hospital simulation with building, management and diagnostic part. The fun hides behind a bumpy start.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Above all, the first four Settler games benefit from the purely technical changes. All seven have aged with dignity.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    With the return to World War 2, Battlefield reaches a new zenith thanks to meaningful innovations - if one disregards the single player.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    Fans of the series are happy about new visuals and content, the unchanged gameplay won't win over anyone who finds farming boring.
    • 37 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Despite all the freedom for the player, Underworld Ascendant is a bug-spectacle that, in spite of its great looks, is more boring than thrilling.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Get Famous is focused on individual fame and its consequences, but doesn't use a lot of potential apart from influencers.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Darksiders 3 offers fresh new approaches and fun gameplay, but leaves much to be desired in terms of story, heroine and keyboard controls.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Tactical fights, great story, fresh setting: Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus is the fresh wind the franchise needed.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Short, firm soul-like that keeps you entertained for 20 hours. Learning curve and replay value are low.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Partly extremly hard, but never quite unfair retro platformer with idiosyncratic charm, which properly picks up steam in arcade mode only.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    Jagged Alliance Light: Only four controllable mercenaries, small maps and comic graphics - but if you don't expect Jagged 3, you'll get solid tactics.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Gris is an arty platform adventure that combines sophisticated platform mechanics with a dense, emotionally charged atmosphere.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Iris. Fall is a very short and fairly easy puzzle game, but it shines through intense atmosphere and creative puzzles.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Explosive open-world spectacle in the form of a playable B-movie. Graphical weaknesses and boring missions lower the score for Just Cause 4.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Quite difficult turn based strategy battles in a densely narrated and graphically great looking post-apocalypse with fascinating animal heroes.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Fallout 76 aspires to offer a lot with West Virginia and exciting co-op, but fails due to unbalanced game design and technical flaws.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    NBA 2K19 is a complete upgrade from 2K18 and therefore a top sports game. But Pay2Win, cheaters and technology quirks are extremely annoying.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    With the Champions League, new modes and fine gameplay innovations, FIFA 19 continues to evolve in small but noticeable steps.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    CrossCode is a funky, charming and sometimes even too extensive action RPG with a pleasant nostalgic side.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    Nostalgics will enjoy innuendos to pop culture, everybody else a slender, picture-pretty puzzle adventure that also speaks to your emotions.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Very good move of a classic into the modern game era. Veterans of the series have been waiting for it, new players will miss innovation.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    A detective adventure with lots of conversation and exciting cases in a varied steampunk world.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    60 Parsecs sometimes feels unfair, but because of the entertaining adventure-survival-mix you always want to try again.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    A charming sequel to an RPG milestone with a great combat system and great music, but it still has technical problems.
    • GameStar
    • 87 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Successful mixture of strategy, tower defense, survival sandbox and sci-fi story generator with a guaranteed high replay value.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Thanks to improvements to details and the extensive solo mode, Soul Calibour 6 is a very good continuation of a Beat'Em Up classic. Soul Calibur is alive! Also on the PC.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Cyanides Space Hulk is close to the board game, but suffers from sluggish control and too short a campaign. Best played against a buddy.
    • 40 Metascore
    • 42 Critic Score
    As a stylistic experiment The Quiet Man is quite courageous, as a game in terms of execution an absolute flop.
