The real trouble with Risen 2 is that it doesn't really do anything particularly right. [July 2012, p.72]- Hyper Magazine

The sort of game where the micromanagement is more exciting than the actual action. [June 2014, p.78]- Hyper Magazine

While Rhythm of Fighters isn't the best in the genre it is one of the most generous, offering plenty of content for your $1.19 and reasonably priced DLC. [Issue#253, p.81]- Hyper Magazine

The combat is really interesting the first few times you encounter it, but the simple system behind it becomes too obvious after that. [May 2012, p.61]- Hyper Magazine

If you enjoy hacking and slashing and screaming at randoms, this is the one. [Sept 2012, p.76]- Hyper Magazine

A little more polish and some much-needed rethinking and this would've scored much higher. [May 2012, p.81]- Hyper Magazine

An incredibly irritating protagonist, and his tilt-fuelled infinite-runner-esque adventures are fiddly and boring. [Apr 2013, p.23]- Hyper Magazine

With surprisingly intricate tactical gameplay hidden behind a charming interface and nonchalant storytelling, 7 Grand Steps is one of gaming's greatest metaphors for life. [July 2013, p.73]- Hyper Magazine

- Critic Score
An ok campaign with potentially great co-op marred by uninspired design, poor storytelling and glitches. [June 2012, p.76]- Hyper Magazine

The initial few hours are exciting and thrilling, swinging through the city, stopping crimes and collecting comic book pages. But it soon feels padded out and derivative. [Oct 2012, p.58]- Hyper Magazine

Despite being rough around the edges and extremely frustrating at times, Blackguards delivers an enjoyable balance of story and strategy. [Apr 2014, p.64]- Hyper Magazine

It is challenging, rewarding and frustrating, though it could use a bit more personality. [Oct 2013, p.70]- Hyper Magazine

That's not to say that this version isn't playable, but it's far from ideal. [June 2013, p.85]- Hyper Magazine

Gauntlet needs DLC. Badly. Still, good fun in the short term. [Issue#255, p.54]- Hyper Magazine

Far from Ron Gilbert or Double Fine's best, but The Cave manages to deliver just enough satisfaction to avoid disaster. [Apr 2013, p.74]- Hyper Magazine

Spectacular, state of the art dowloadable gaming that struggles to deliver interesting gameplay to match its technical accomplishments. [Oct 2012, p.52]- Hyper Magazine

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

The interesting animations and imaginative products give enough for the asking price, and nothing more. [Feb 2013, p.69]- Hyper Magazine

A bare bones, barely HD and quite unbalanced game. [Nov 2012, p.79]- Hyper Magazine

It may be a little buggy and unbalanced, but Rise of the Triad is a gleefully stupid and hugely entertaining retro shoot 'em up. [Oct 2013, p.62]- Hyper Magazine

At least turning the ship's wheel with your finger is a pleasantly tactile experience. [March 2014, p.76]- Hyper Magazine

Excellent, but uneven, and almost certain to be divisive. Come for the bloated story mode, but stay for Mercenaries. [Nov 2012, p.62]- Hyper Magazine

Some excellent ideas and multiplayer fun but not enough content as yet. [Apr 2013, p.76]- Hyper Magazine

Still creepy, still fun eight years later. Not quite enough new content to win back old fans, but first-timers will delight. [Jan 2013, p.74]- Hyper Magazine

Despite tense moments and imaginative worlds, Among the Sleep doesn't quite live up to the potential of its unique concept. [Issue#251, p.74]- Hyper Magazine
