It squandered its chance to potentially be the best Formula game of recent years due to poor AI quality. However, with its driving dynamics, period-specific details, and immersive atmosphere, it still delivers a solid experience that will satisfy fans of the genre.

A survival horror game that starts off creepy, arouses curiosity, and sends chills down your spine, but loses its momentum halfway through: Cronos. You might come for the thrill, but you'll stay for the story.

Probably never before has playing emperor been this flexible and enjoyable. In this masterful remake of a classic, Square Enix has prepared a fantastic package for both newcomers and fans of the series. Those hungry for JRPGs should dive right in.

Turn off your brain and enjoy blasting enemies in this straightforward yet highly fluid, quintessential game of its era: Gears of War: Reloaded. If you miss the gaming sensibilities of the PS3/Xbox 360 era, you’ll gladly embrace this experience.

This was enjoyable for a time like an origami lesson. But just like the craft this game goes the frustrating ways very quickly and became a shortlived hobby class in the end.

Sword of the Sea is a perfect game to bid farewell to the summer. From start to finish, it offers a refreshing, carefree experience. There’s nothing better than seeing what it feels like to ride a flying skateboard across the desert and most importantly, to step away from the daily grind.

A relatively successful blend of Dead Cells and Prince of Persia. Its music and acrobatic gameplay in particular promise a few enjoyable hours. However, the somewhat linear structure causes it to become repetitive rather quickly, and after a while, you don’t really see a reason to go for another run. It would benefit from being supported with DLCs.

One of the most comprehensive and best W40K games ever made, a timeless and brilliant strategy game that truly deserves a better remaster.

OFF really tastes like a fine aged wine. Even though plenty of games in the same vein have come out since the original release, OFF still manages to impress with its story and atmosphere even after 17 years. I just wish that, after going through all the trouble of a remake, they had done more to update the action system. But everything else, especially the weight and impact of the underlying metaphors, delivers an experience you won’t easily forget, even years from now. In fact, when it’s over, you might find yourself, like me, just staring blankly at a wall for a while.

A productive early access period, a developer who listens to the players and knows what it wants to do, and a bunch of good ideas coming together have resulted in a successful outcome.

Tiny Bookshop is one of the best indie games of the year. It’s so soothing it makes you feel like cotton. If you’re looking for a relaxing game you can play without rushing, without stress, and in peace (especially if you’re a bookworm) I’d say grab it without hesitation. And if your reading habit has faltered lately, it even helps rekindle it. What more could you ask for?

Snake Eater, in its time travel 20 years into the future, hasn’t fully managed to preserve its masterpiece status in every sense, but it has succeeded in remaining a truly one-of-a-kind experience.

Echoes of the End surprises with its inventive puzzle mechanics and engaging story presentation, showing plenty of potential. Unfortunately, Myrkur Games falls short on core aspects such as character focus and combat system, preventing the game from reaching that potential. The result is, sadly, a title that doesn’t rise much above mediocrity. To overcome the hard parts yet stumble on the fundamentals is, quite literally, “crossing the ocean only to drown in a stream.”

Few games manage to capture the spirit of classic arcade titles this successfully. It’s a game worthy of the Ninja Gaiden name, both in beauty and in challenge.

Mafia: The Old Country has a great story to tell. As it unfolds, it captivates you with the breathtaking beauty of Sicily, never breaking its cinematic flow and staying true to its course. In these days when we long for linear games, it shines like a sun rising over Messina.

Aside from reactivating multiplayer and adding controller support, it’s a package Aspyr has released with minimal effort. But since its core is so good, if you enjoy party-based D&D RPGs, it still manages to be worth playing. A significant part of its score comes from that strong core anyway.

It’s like Astro Bot and Super Mario Odyssey have been thrown into a blender, then packed with bananas, filled with monkeys and gorillas, and turned all the way up to maximum fun! All that’s left for us is to dive into this joyride and join an unforgettable adventure in one of Nintendo’s most entertaining and downright hilarious games.

A unique "What if?" story based on Aztec mythology turns into a truly different experience when combined with a horror theme - that is, as long as the game doesn’t crash.

For a stealth-themed game, it's a bit too straightforward, but overall, it's quite an enjoyable experience.

System Shock 2: 25th Anniversary Remaster isn’t just a gift for longtime fans, it’s also a rare gem for those discovering this masterpiece for the first time. It doesn’t merely offer improved textures and controls; it also provides a chance to revisit one of the most pivotal milestones that paved the way for games like BioShock and Prey.

China is on a roll and nothing can stop it. Maybe WUCHANG won’t create as much buzz as Wukong but it certainly left a stong impression on me with it’s brilliant level design, art direction and elegant action. It’s the soulslike game that has it’s own unique identity and hopefully a franchise starter like Nioh. Play it, you won’t regret it.

If concepts like Stephen King, John Carpenter, and low-budget 80s horror films hold a special place in your life, you’ll absolutely love The Drifter.

With four new planets to explore, coorful visuals and occasionally aggressive humor, Revenge of the Savage Planet is just as fun as the first one. But the monotonous combat mechanics and enemies that attack you almost non-stop can get tiresome after a while.

If you're craving dark fantasy and want to lose yourself in an open world, Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon isn't a bad game at all. That is if you can accept that it's a rough, raw experience that often feels like something out of a decade ago.

If you're looking for a ruthless, multiplayer survival adventure with a mesmerizing atmosphere that draws you into the world of Dune and lets you lose hours in the sands, you're in the right place. If its areas in need of improvement are addressed swiftly, it has the potential to keep you trapped on Arrakis for a long time.

A different and fresh Mario Kart game was exactly what the series needed, and with World, Nintendo has delivered. They didn’t really need to make the AI this ruthless though.

Overture is a DLC that maintains Lies of P’s exceptionally high quality standards without missing a beat, both in terms of design and technical performance. And it doesn’t stop there - because it also knows exactly how to tug at the heartstrings, it delivers yet another unforgettable adventure in Krat.

Cyberpunk 2077 is a fantastic starting point for Nintendo to keep third-party developers on board. I can't think of a better game to showcase what the console is capable of.
