    It's funny and weird, if not a whole lot of fun past the first 15 minutes - but for that price, that's enough. [Apr 2013, p.23]

    Better than it has any right to be, but still deeply flawed. [Nov 2013, p.68]

    • 70 Critic Score
    It's not all smooth sailing, but there's still some rich pirate booty to discover if you're up for it. [Nov 2013, p.70]

    Get it for the Final Fantasy XV demo, stay for the surprisingly deep and enjoyable campaign.

    Often too frantic and awfully repetitive, but the Platinum in its veins shines through. [Nov 2013, p.75]
    • Hyper Magazine
    • 60 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Worthwhile for fans, but it's not up there with the rest of the series. [Aug 2012, p.70]

    • Hyper Magazine
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score

    • Hyper Magazine
    • 63 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Ambitious and enjoyable, but falters under its own weight. [Apr 2014, p.58]
    • Hyper Magazine
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An enjoyable bed-and-bus time distraction that is perhaps just a sequel away from greatness. [Apr 2014, p.60]

    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Despite being rough around the edges and extremely frustrating at times, Blackguards delivers an enjoyable balance of story and strategy. [Apr 2014, p.64]

    • 82 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Well written and charming but Broken Age plays it too safe to be particularly memorable. [Apr 2014, p.67]
    • Hyper Magazine
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's great, but not quite as strong as either series' peak. [June 2014, p.66]
    • Hyper Magazine
    • 81 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A beautifully presented retro game that proves less really can be more, but lacks any lasting appeal beyond the immense joys of local multiplayer. [Apr 2014, p.70]

    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    You'll find Octodad: Dadliest Catch either uniquely charming or unbelievably annoying. [Issue#249, p.72]

    • 82 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's very unique and cool, and as such easy to like. [Nov 2013, p.81]

    A worthy high-score distraction. [Aug 2012, p.31]

    Fundamentally it's quite well designed. [Apr 2014, p.75]

    • 86 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's a simple idea executed well, even if it doesn't quite burrow into your brain the way the best puzzle games do. [Apr 2014, p.75]
    • Hyper Magazine
    • 64 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Frontier doesn't stand so well on its own, but it's a neat free appetiser. [Issue#249, p.77]
    • Hyper Magazine
    • 75 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An ambitious if repetitive combination of shooter and loot based ARPG. A boost in loot drop frequency could definitely boost the fun/score. [Issue#254, p.47]

    [Pictogram of mild disappointment] [Issue#254, p.62]
    • Hyper Magazine
    • 81 Metascore

    An improvement in some ways, but a let down in others. [Issue#254, p.63]
    • Hyper Magazine
    • 65 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A little too obtuse to be truly great, Flockers still delivers some great puzzle solving if you can deal with a lot of trial and error. [Issue#254, p.60]
