    • 80 Critic Score
    Its a funny adventure with a great narrative and will entertain Borderland fans and new players alike.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    A refreshingly different coming-of-age drama that takes our decisions seriously. Technically it's a bit rough which diminishes the atmosphere from time to time.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    Lots of retro feeling, small scale. Only real fans of the 80s' transformers will enjoy Devastation. Sorry kids, these are not the Transformers you're looking for.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    Lots of content, full of variety and extremely will written. This is a well-done add-on for a low price.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    The huge amount of improvements are fitting well. It's no Alpha Centauri 2 yet - but it's getting closer.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    Plan, build, fail, sell and try again. Behind the functional graphics of Prison Architect there's a complex, motivating and very good prison simulation.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    Fight, level up, explore, conquer, build. Even after 20 years this still manages to glue you to the screen. Incredible.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    The PC version seems to have some technical problems on some machines, but if you don't mind that and the career mode full of cliché then this is a monster slam dunk.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    A fascinating viking journey with silent moments and boss fights, but it sometimes lacks narrative.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    A beautiful world, but the puzzles are very simple. No masterpiece, but still a great experience.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Whatever The Beginner's Guide is supposed to be: it's well done and everything we could say about it would be a spoiler.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    If you want to rule over Europe you can look forward to complex trading and city building. For military strategist it may fall short.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 89 Critic Score
    Looks like FIFA 15, but it's a better game. FIFA 16 improves the gameplay and is on par with PES 2016 again.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    This add-on improves the gameplay and the atmosphere of an already great game. It's the sole ruler of the city builder genre.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    It still plays great, better than FIFA - but we are fed up with graphics downgrades for PC gamers.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Better than the original Kickstarter version. It's not perfect, but a step in the right direction and worth playing - due to the lack of competition.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    I hate this game. And I love it. No other game managed to motivate me so often to have another go. But the crashes and some unfair situations are frustrating.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A fascinating underwater world and a deep story exploring human fate. But if you are looking for pure horror, this is not for you.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    At its best, it's an exciting mix of chess and RTS but there are just too many frustrating moments.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    A traditional RTS with clever ideas that struggles a bit due to the weak single player campaign. Still the best RTS we've seen in a long time.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    It captures the charm of the outstanding original, and should satisfy fans of the original. However, it is also monotonous, tough and a little unimaginative.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 92 Critic Score
    MGS5 is an enormous open-world adventure, a monster of a game that can entertain for months.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    A well-done revival of Syndicate for real-time strategists with strong nerves. Brains and coordination triumph over fast clicking.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    It starts like a great game with a fantastic horror atmosphere, but then turns into a B-movie with a convoluted story and absurd puzzles.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Evoland 2 is a bombastic mix of console-type RPG, fighting game, turn-based strategy and platformer - something for real game experts.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Story, characters and dialogues make it a thrilling game, despite the stagnant game mechanics.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    With a bit more time, this could have been a great game. But now it's just a hint of what could have been.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 56 Critic Score
    What does dying feel like? This game tries to answer this question, but the level design is just too difficult and requires absolute precision.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    The White March improves the game in some areas and offers an interesting story, but it may disappoint veteran players.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    Usually adventure games don't need great graphics, but here the visuals are so weak, they rob the game of its atmosphere.
