A pleasant mix of an action and tower defense game that sadly runs out of its charm sooner than one would hope for. [Issue#245]

We all had hopes American Nightmare would be more of a "full-featured" title. Though it's more like a stand-alone DLC. Nevertheless, fans of the original game should not avoid it. [July 2012]

New chapter to the horror series returns to its roots and brings a slight change in visual style. Next time we ask for less ice and more rot and fear please. [Feb 2010]

Beautiful and colorful game for small children, which looks like the “Sims Disney” ... but only if those children can speak English well. [Issue #270]

A solid reboot of the popular racing series, which is strong when it comes to driving, but it suffers from lack of content and rushed development. The game could have used a few more months of development, so that even the biggest perfectionist wouldn´t have any issues. [Issue#299]

A building game in nice graphics with numerous options, which is both created for lovers of Harry Potter and game management.

Cloudpunk is like a neon tube. Very nice to look at, but if you look closer, it has nothing to offer and after some time it's a bit boring. [Issue#304]

If you have a story with a purple monster, talking ships, environmental activist, and Yeti you can make a really funny game. The people from KING Art made a great one. [Jan 2013]

It's a world so well-designed that the whole passage feels like a trip to a beautiful 2D environment. [Issue#330]

There is no other comparable work then to hunt for the Whitechapel butcher. At least all of the videogames, books and movies are still far far ahead. This great game is pulled down by boring investigation and routines not related to the main story. [July 2009]

Intense action will address the superheroes fanboys only – other gamers will be soon bored by its repetitive course (and music). [Nov 2009]

What it deserves praise for is the turn-based duel system, which has everything we need. [Issue#330]

Perfect ratio of fight and talk makes this new Neverwinter add-on a must have for all RPG fans. Seek no innovations here, Westgate offers nothing but believable living worlds, free of all fantasy clichés. [July 2009]

The same old story. Even though the story, in this case the game's driving model, is still pretty enjoyable. [Issue#244]

There is a shortage of good and original adventure games on the market. Unfortunately, Ceville will not make it to the first league – it is overall average in jokes, graphics and lifespan. [Apr 2009]

Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl is a decent remaster transferring the fourth generation from Nintendo DS to Switch. The authors handled well the absence of the second screen, but in the case of game mechanics they could go a bit further.

Cute time eater brings all the same fun and experience as previous GameCube and DS versions but nothing more. Remake it is... [Issue#173]

Cute logical game addresses mostly the casual gamers and succeeds with great variability and easy playability. [Feb 2010]

Admittedly, even though the story is linear, the world in which it takes place feels very alive thanks to the cheerful characters saying various quips, but also thanks to the various texts you find and learn more about Silesia in 1428 as you read them. [Issue#322]

Straightforward copycat of "Souls" games achieved a success because it can reach players the Japanese series could not because it was too difficult. The game is still challenging but you won't be desperate from playing it. [Issue#247]

Infinity Ward devs are back, and they bring a typical Call of Duty game – not a miracle, but it certainly will satisfy all kinds of players. [Issue #269]

A very challenging strategy game that depicts a world of sorcerers and their empires. Civilization with spells? Yes – and it bites hard. [Issue#242]

Bunch of fresh animations doesn’t merit a buy. The Brazilian setting is well done but the game is still way too overpriced. [Issue#242]

Many will argue that there aren't enough enemy types, or that the weapon upgrades that underpin it all seem as if they came out of a decades-old game. And they'd be right. This is a game that follows a simple template. But it does so in a confessed way, and in the end the authors didn't promise anything beyond mindless and fun zombie slaughter. [Issue#327]

An interesting twist on the concept of a tycoon game that falls short of its ambition. [Issue #240]

Short life span but budget price – this science-fiction inspired first person shooter has a lot to offer with stunning visuals and perfect old-school playability. Pity there's not a multiplayer option. [Nov 2011]

Great for newcomers, perhaps a little easy for experienced puzzle solvers but still a pleasant puzzle game with its typical humour and an episodic approach to storytelling. [Issue#300]

Interesting duels, time games and remarkable characters are the main things, that Iron Danger has to offer. It's not a game of the year, but it does entertain. [Issue#302]

The new episode of the Far Cry series really tries a lot to find new ways how to enjoy the game, and at the same time it relies on the unattainable depth that the charismatic Giancarlo Esposito was supposed to give to the game. Instead, players again receive a disparate mishmash that is increasingly moving away from both the original Far Cry idea and the Just Cause sandbox.

Marvelous game, stunning animations, RPG motives, multiple solutions to puzzles, stylish visuals, great hero with potential to compete with iconic Mario – all buried six feet under because of crappy camera and controls. [Issue#199]

112 Operator offers only relatively minor changes compared to its predecessor, but it handles them all very well and pushes the boundaries of interactivity and realistic experience. [Issue#303]

Good old worms with a new look are still entertaining (unlike the other modern parts of the series) just like the original ones. [Dec 2012]

Old-school shooter is sharp and with its perfect visuals is also additive and deadly. [Jan 2013]

Excellent story mixes horror, western and turn-based clone of XCOM. Unfortunately Hard West lacks the option to move aside from the preset story line same as it lacks the freedom in turn-based battles. [Issue #259]

This well-made adaptation of the board game will your brain a hell of a time with its tactical options. Unfortunately, it suffers from a lack of interest from players in multiplayer. You can hardly play without your own friends. [Issue#291]

Modern-spy simulation game with little compromise, surprises in every part – sophisticated RPG system, excellent story, catchy action segments and a precious conclusion. [Issue#192]

Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl is a decent remaster transferring the fourth generation from Nintendo DS to Switch. The authors handled well the absence of the second screen, but in the case of game mechanics they could go a bit further.

American football without the Americans but with a lot of fantasy characters. It's not exactly the simplest game in the world but if you try it you'll have hours of fun. [Issue#200]

Very original and uncompromising variation on survival game attracts with untamed river and a robust crafting system you have no chance to survive without. It suffers from several issues that still need some fine-tuning. [Issue#262]

RPG for the hardened. Get used to loadings and getting lost in the rules, get ready for an ok storyline - and in the return you will enjoy a deep level of challenge and great management of your own kingdom. Obsidian has a new competitor. [Issue#290]

Likeable and (sometimes) funny 3D platformer in an open world does not even try to keep up with time. The acknowledged spiritual successor of the first Banjo-Kazooie is precised up to the last detail to give the same gameplay as its 1998 ”original”. [Issue#274]

Did you gain weight over the Holidays? Well, this karatistic odyssey is for you then: it will help you to get back in shape and have fun doing it. [Issue#238]

An excellent example of a meaningful DLC. Nobody cares that it's short when it's THAT intense. [Issue#245]

Little brother of PS3 version comes with raw driving and heightened difficulty. Lots of fun waits in the game editor and multiplayer duels. [Issue#192]

Nice try to make an unusual tower defense game with a touch of old sci-fi movies suffers from exaggerated difficulty and lack of online rosters. [Feb 2012]

It's a great game if you don't want to play too long against a pretty erratic AI. It's disappointing to not be able to control the goalie as well. The online features are excellent. Plus there's the promise of an expanding range of available Nintendo characters for free. A perfect choice for parties. [Issue#320]

New add-on to Neverwinter franchise brings challenge even to vets of this series. Nonlinear style means all pros and cons you can expect: open world to explore on one hand on the other are the shallow interaction between party members. [Issue#173]

Great break after a busy day. With or without a partner, you will experience this respite together with at least Yu and Kay. The story in a dreamy landscape is worth it. [Issue#309]

The new Call of Duty is like a shopping list, in which the devs list one second-rate cliché after another. It's not always for the sake of it, but it's already making the WWII unique that everybody should play. [Issue#280]

A bit better than the Ghosts, but worse than Advanced Warfare – new Call of Duty is awkwardly trying to make some changes in single player, but adding a bunch of technical problems in the same time. Multiplayer it is flawless as usual. [Issue#258]

Not many games try to hide the best of its content as hard as X3. Only patient players unveil all its beauty. But overcoming obstacles is most worthy – this game is a real hidden diamond. [Dec 2008]

Tactical action with potential -or one great game mode- but at the cost of the full game these are the two faces of the new Rainbow Six. [Issue #259]

Racing arcade game brings fun and good playability – the biggest drawback is the absent of a local multiplayer – this kind of game is crying for it. [Feb 2012]

I don’t like dividing the games into the episodes. But if there is no other way to get it funded let's take it as a necessary evil. The first part is a promise of the unique experience with well-written heroes. [Issue#247]

Managerial point of view to epic space battles. Good planning is necessary to enjoy this "Tower Defense" variation. [Issue#187]

The same bunch of exercises spiced up with a few new features, like the ability to use gamepad as a display. The game is a proven recipe and it’ll keep you occupied for a while. [Issue#238]

Majesty 2 is quite a mad game with chaotic controls and exaggerated difficulty. It is more an action RPG with unpredictable outcomes then classic RPG or even “Kingdom Sim”. [Oct 2009]

A very stylish comics strategy game, with not exactly optimized controls nor absorbing gameplay. [Issue#233]

With a top-down perspective and simple graphics, Sole Survivor Games' tycoon is reminiscent of good old Zelda, but with a wide range of strategic options, it's closer to Prison Architect and plays like it. It's a shame that the game quickly exhausts its initially interesting potential and unusual theme. [Issue#325]

The Dead Rising brand should give itself a short break. The fourth episode had almost slipped into average, saved only by a perfect combination of weapons and creative ways how to deal with zombies. [Issue #271]

You can turn yourself into the ruler of an ancient city who manages every single detail to make his city grow and prosper. If the devs improve their battle system we have here a quite promising new strategy game. [Mar 2009]

Frenetic old-school action shooter brings hero spitting one-liners like Duke Nukem to its best. If you like to recall the days of doom-like shooters Serious Sam the best way to go. [Jan 2012]

Despite the negative campaign, Bully is an entertaining game even with all its school clichés. If you are tired of grown-up violence in GTA why not try some brute force on “grounds of education”. [Dec 2008]

If you are a fan of comics, then this is your dream come true. To fight against the Joker with Catwoman? Wow! But unfortunately, the game is not as fun as the comics, nor as colorful as the superhero's costumes. [Issue#201]

What seems boring is actually a very challenging puzzle game that will make you boil in fury as well as cheer in excitement. [Issue#245]

Race Pro for consoles is a strict and tedious race simulation game. Luckily there are a bunch of multiplayer options from, hot seat to an online competition. [Apr 2009]

Too simple building strategy is full of useless, boring or nonfunctional new elements. In its favor speaks only an excellent audiovisual presentation and functional basic mechanics. What a disappointment. [Issue #259]

A significant shift from previous installments towards a greater show and extreme drifting. If you prefer Split/Second type of racing the new Ridge Racer won't disappoint you. [May 2012]

Though not flawless, this tribute to the 16bit era ignites the flame in not just one Amiga player, and can be equally recommended to all fans of shooters and couch-playing. [Issue#280]

Original style, nice 2D visuals and fantastic jazz & reggae music with great playability will thrill every gamer – but only for 3-4 hours with no sequel in distance sight. [June 2012]

Vast world with working economic model, excellent mounted fight is degraded by a weak engine presentation. Only hardcore gamers can enjoy this game in the state it's in. [Dec 2008]

Exploring game will entertain you with its perfect combat system, but also severely frustrates with the exaggerated role of chance. [Issue#256]

Repetitive tasks, uninteresting world and surprisingly unsettled quality of the story mean that neither an enhanced fight nor driving model won't make a new Mass Effect above the average game. [Issue#273]

If you've dreamed of a game where you will become a noir detective in the cyberpunk world, Gamedec is just for you. Interrogating suspects, searching for evidence, deducing and difficult decisions make from this title a detective nirvana that no fan of the genre should miss. The only flaw in the beauty is the shallow sound design and the overall deafness of the game world.

There are plenty of moments in the game that are downright frustrating, such as the low movement speed, navigational ambiguity, minimal interactivity, and a certain tediousness with which the story unfolds. [Issue#332]

Crappy graphics, but surprisingly enough it's a hardcore simulator game of the world fastest motorbikes. This title will definitely please those steering handlebars fans. The rest of gaming population will most likely get frightened by the game's requirements. [Issue#232]

Steep is the best winter sports game on PC, which unfortunately does not mean that it comes without any bugs. However, under the layer of bugs a pretty good experience is hidden. [Issue #270]

Rogue doesn´t bring anything new, but builds on the addictive model of Black Flag together with an entertaining story. Any fan of the assassin series and/or the boats should not hesitate. [Issue#248]

A shooter, where you create your own guns. It pulses with energy but doesn’t fully use its potential. The game often unnecessarily jumps from dynamic combat to a chaotic fight against a dumb but extremely powerful AI. Instead including roguelike elements, the authors should have gone with multiplayer. [Issue#288]

It’s short and less funny then before. No new ideas this time. On the other side Wallace and Gromit is still a great adventure with hilarious situations and excellent visuals.

A decent attempt at a paper version of simplistic Diablo, which, however, suffers from slight repetitiveness and relative shortness. But still, it is worth a try. [Issue#292]

A catchy and nostalgic epic adventure which takes us back to a time when the gaming world was enchanted by the original Broken Sword series. [June 2011]

Enjoyable platformer will make you laugh with all the tiny cute graphics and exploding penguins! Do not expect childish difficulty though 1000 lives will not be enough. [Sept 2009]

Finally, everything that we love (and hate) about Broken Sword clicks together. Anyone who loves the series will be right at home. [Issue#242]

It's smart, it's humorous and the only thing it really lacks is a unique charm. Its replayability is a great boon, though. [Issue#244]

Fun you appreciate only when your six years old son is next to you. Otherwise you have to show some enthusiast verve. [Issue#255]

A pleasant peek for fans of univers, who want more "forties". The remaining players of turn-based strategies lets look elsewhere. There is a lot to choose from.

The graphics stick to the boundaries set by its predecessor and only improve and smooth out. Although everything takes place in a dark fantasy world drowning in fog, the depiction of the world in watercolors makes the game almost beautiful. [Issue#319]

Fun reminder of the good old times when fighting games were the most popular ones. DC heroes freshen up the world but the singleplayer campaign is dull and the dubbing is truly punishable. [Feb 2009]

Rock solid RPG has a very slow start and couple of design flaws but patient gamers are rewarded by tens of hours of great adventure. [Aug 2009]

Big Pharma revives the tycoon concept with logic beyond the given frame and this makes it not only fresh and interesting, but also entertaining. [Issue#264]

One of the best free-to-play games for PS4. In some respects, it refers to the popular Dark Souls, but to be perfect it lacks better visuals and interconnection with environment. [Issue #271]

A peaceful visit to the underwater life includes more than it might seem at first glance. Relaxing gameplay and perfect workmanship deserve your attention. [Issue#304]

How to make an awkward elephant from a light-footed gazelle? The same way you can advance from a splendid Challenge of the Warlords to an overcomplicated Galactrix. [Mar 2009]

JRPG comes with an attractive yet imperfect combat system, fascinating imaginative world and a couple of fresh ideas. [Issue#190]

This puzzle adventure oozes melancholy and captivates through atmosphere, setting and for a while even its gameplay. Unfortunately, the game quickly runs out of breath and finishes mostly in agony. [Nov 2013]

Showdown is not such a bad game. The only problem is that its timing is totally wrong and every ace is played too soon. When you play Showdown for one hour you will have seen everything that the game has to offer. [June 2012]

Risk with the original setting has been worth it. It's a pity there is almost no motivation to replay the game. A result? Diablo for beginners. [Issue#231]
