    Alien Shooter 2: Reloaded
    As you upgrade you’ll face tougher monsters, your backpedalling crowd control getting steadily more bloody as foes arrive thicker and faster, and you unlock more of the game’s vast arsenal of weapons and armour. You’ll need to grind its paltry selection of side missions to keep up with the rigours of story mode, but it’s a rewarding progression even if the action soon starts to feel repetitive.

    Resistance 2
    Just a mishmash of cliches with enemies that could have walked in from any other shooter and a plot that simply joins the dots from one contrived set piece to another...You've not only seen it all before you've seen it a dozen times before.

    Splatoon
    The most original and enjoyable online shooter of the generation, but the lack of content at launch means it may be months before it reaches its true potential.

    Styx: Blades of Greed
    The newly vertiginous sandbox levels prove an excellent canvas for sneaking and stealing, in a welcome new entry in what feels increasingly like the spiritual successor to Thief: The Dark Project.

    Deathtrap Dungeon: The Interactive Video Adventure
    There’s a new, less punishing, three-round battle system, but this is mostly business as usual with lots of deep pits, damp caverns, mysterious alcoves, and a short-lived partnership with Throm the barbarian. It’s a pleasantly relaxing game to play, your frequent deaths only ever sending you back to the previous narrative branch, with Eddie Marsan amiably suppling details of your demise.

    Botanicula
    Charming, clever and attractive; Botanicula is the perfect antidote to angst-ridden gaming and a fine graphic adventure in its own right.

    God of War III Remastered
    Hardly a game that was in desperate need of a makeover, but the original is still a solid action adventure and Kratos’ story is given at least an element of closure.

    Swords & Soldiers
    One of the best looking WiiWare games is also one of the most accessible real-time strategies ever.

    Monument Valley 3
    A brief new slice of Monument Valley’s unique and minimally drawn perspective-bending puzzles, with the promise of more to come.

    A Fisherman's Tale
    A fascinating premise that is used not only to create a set of mind-bending puzzles but to ruminate on the nature of reality. It’s just a shame about the controls and the short running time.

    Toukiden: The Age of Demons
    There’s no attempt at pretence: this is a Monster Hunter clone through and through, but such a good one it actually does some things better than its inspiration.

    G30
    Mysterious, whimsical and intriguing, this is one to take your time over.

    Blasters of the Universe
    It’s great fun, the refined and challenging shooting mechanics and enormous assortment of gun configurations proving highly entertaining.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Humankind
    A highly competent alternative to Civilization but the list of unequivocal improvements is disappointingly short, with an unfortunate lack of real innovation.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Tembo the Badass Elephant
    A few flaws short of a modern platforming classic, but although Tembo isn’t perfect he is exactly as badass as promised.

    Beyond Good & Evil 20th Anniversary Edition
    A mere remaster can’t hide all the foibles of a 20-year-old game, but this is a well-crafted tribute to a classic PlayStation 2 era game, that has long deserved a proper sequel.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Fear the Spotlight
    A fun mix of PS1 era horror nostalgia and Life Is Strange style emotional drama, that goes a little too light on the scares but is still a compelling mix of influences.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Coffee Talk Tokyo
    A charming coffee shop sim that’s slow going but packs plenty of emotional wallop into its runtime, with a cast of colourful characters that are well worth the asking price to meet.

    Killer Instinct
    An excellent reboot of an unfairly forgotten fighter, but the way it’s being sold does it no favours and severally restricts the fun to be had online.

    London 2012 - The Official Video Game of the Olympic Games
    Not just an Olympics tie-in but a proper sports game, with the majority of events finding a good balance between realism and enjoyment.

    Yosumin! LIVE
    Simplistic to a fault but still one of the most addictive, and fairly original, puzzlers of the year.

    Hogwash
    It’s a joyous affair, even if aiming can prove a bit frustrating, especially as the farmhand, with his limited water reservoir and three naughty porkers to keep track of.
    • 76 Metascore

    Endless Ocean: Blue World
    The scuba diving sim isn't a crowded genre but this makes a good effort to dominate it all the same.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Lacuna - A Sci-Fi Noir Adventure
    There’s a lot of text to read, from newspaper articles to the majority of dialogue being unvoiced, but its great looking setting and unusual detection gameplay loop make this every bit as engaging as it was on PC and consoles, and just as prone to getting you stuck if you don’t spot the small detail you’re supposed to.

    Below
    A frustrating mix of survival game and roguelike, that has absolutely no respect for your time and yet still hides an enthralling and rewarding action adventure within its murky depths.

    New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe
    Compared to the classic 2D Super Mario games this is disappointingly anodyne, but it’s still competently made platform fun that can be enjoyed by everyone.
    • 73 Metascore

    Surviving Mars
    An enjoyable twist on the usual city building formula, that simulates the dangers of planetary colonisation impressively well – although it could have done with a slightly lighter touch.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    War for the Overworld
    Not so much a sequel to Dungeon Keeper 2 as an unofficial remake, and while a little magic has been lost along the way this is still a charmingly unique strategy game.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Dragon Age: Origins
    The best and worst of BioWare's excesses combine in this competent but unprogressive RPG.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Redout: Space Assault
    Unfortunately, its reach sometimes exceeds its grasp, and even on the latest iPhone it suffers from frame rate stutters when the action gets busy. Its unremittingly generic sci-fi characters and setting also conspire against it.
