    • 81 Critic Score
    An entertaining game, but no revolution of the adventure genre and quite similar to the first game.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 56 Critic Score
    It's the same game as Cities XL with very small differences. Selling it at almost full price is nothing but a rip-off.

    Sunless Sea is special, though it is not for everyone. That's okay.

    The central game mode - "hunting" - is splendid that makes Evolve a recommended game. All the rest seems a little immature and makes me hope for a more mature and sophisticated successor.

    Highly recommend for armchair generals with an interest in that epoch of history and lots of time to get into the game.

    Either you like that kind of game with creative gameplay or you thin it's a pure waste of time. It's hard to judge by the usual criteria.

    The large amount of traps and power-ups keeps you playing and the combination with Hack & Slay is well done.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    It's free, fast-paced and the asynchronous teams keep the gameplay interesting, but two gameplay modes aren't enough to keep you playing for a long time.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A fantastic driving experience, but the career mode is disappointing and there's no weather system.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    The damage values in attacks are too arbitrary, the collision detection is not always optimal and wear of the weapons, at least initially more than annoying.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's not perfect, but fans of JRPGs will like it if the played the first part, too.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    The mix of hunting, gathering, counquering, improving and leveling is still compelling - but now it's in HD.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Clever and engaging, funny and exciting. An Adventure in the typical LucasArts tradition and thus a piece of video game history that is worth seeing.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    It's a solid and entertaining classic RTS event though it's hard to identify yourself with some grey slime.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    It may have some old fashioned charm, but its age clearly shows. Controls and game design are out of date.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    More of the same, but still very entertaining. Who would have thought that musicals and hell fit so well into the Saints Row universe?
    • 80 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    A huge universe, thrilling dogfights and interesting space ships - but the random missions and missing links to a story are disappointing.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    More freedom and lots of little improvements make this sequel a lot better - and all that for a fair price.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    I would recommend Ground Zeroes without hesitation were it not for the extremely short playing time.

    • 85 Critic Score
    The Talos Principle manages to mix its philosophical groundwork with the story. It also has great and rewarding puzzles.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    The hotseat mode manages to capture the boardgame atmosphere for a fair price. But don't expect a complex strategy game.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    It's quite similar to Panzer Corps but it's still fun to hit the orcs and their boss Ghazghkull Thraka right between the horns.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    The size of the world is stunning and it's a good racing game, but the controls and the little bit disappointing multiplayer mode are the reasons it's not a great game.

    At the core it's a game full of potential but it will need lots of patches for lots of technical problems.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    The Binding of Isaac is the reference for the rogue-like genre - even if you already know the "old" Isaac inside out.

    A jump and run with puzzles. Average gameplay, but great story and atmosphere.
