Wholly unique and deceptively punishing, Uurnog Uurnlimited is as clever as it is creative.

It definitely adds more than the two preceding expansion packs, but it’s still a slave to the simplistic mechanics that, for many, start to get old after a few weeks of play. [Jan 2002, p.60]

While it's not a must-have for current players, unlocking Faction's 300-odd new skills and discovering an entire new continent full of missions, monsters, and locales adds a lot of creamy icing to an already tasty cake. [Aug 2006, p.64]

Beautiful, well-written, and with an exciting finish, this is a strong start for Inquisition DLC.

World of Warships is Wargaming’s finest vehicle combat game, but its free-to-play model is getting prohibitively expensive.

An enthralling horror mystery that, outside of its relatively short length, doesn't seem to have suffered at all from the difficult circumstances of its development.

Intentionally and unintentionally thorny, but still one of the most compelling mystery adventures since Disco Elysium.

A beautiful 2D soulslike with enough bright ideas of its own to stand out.

For its $65 price tag, RWG makes a decent party game, but it would be better if it came with an extra set of gloves, because tediously wrapping and unwrapping the Velcro closures and passing them back and forth was a real pain. [Sep 2006, p.96]

It's familiar, but Crown of the Ivory King is still another gorgeous five-hour helping of Dark Souls 2. Cherish it—it’s your last.

Still as atmospheric and impressively grim as it was last year, but inessential if you have the original.

Addictive, if soon over. An intoxicating cocktail of molten merriment, Puddle is a glass-half-full kind of game.

An awkward story doesn't hold Capes back from being one of the best turn-based strategy games of recent years.

A smart, hypnotic city builder that won't leave you tearing out your hair.

Stuffed with content and pathos, Infinite Wealth delivers a near-excessive amount of urban crime-drama adventure.

This journey through a dreamscape of loss and absolution is unique, if a bit uneven at times.

A pachinko-roguelike that properly rewards strategic play. Terrific.

Thin and familiar, but it offers some terrific hacking and slashing. [Feb 2004, p.72]

Occasionally clunky, and sporting an unremarkable combat core, but offers an irresistible slice of stealthy co-op coordination. [Oct 2012, p.62]

This heartfelt, engaging reprise of a classic falls just shy of greatness due to a lack of fresh ideas and endurance.

With its rockin' techno beats, ARES takes me back to the days of the classic NES Mega Man games. [June 2011, p.77]

A leisurely stroll through a beautiful apocalypse. Rapture is stirring and heartfelt, but may be too slow and hands-off for some.

If only Stranglehold wasn't quite so formulaic, quite so tamed, and quite so short, this shot of Tequila would go down a whole lot smoother. [Dec 2007, p.72]

A nonstop tour de force of insulting insanity. And even though I should be disgusted by the potty humor and derogatory caricatures, I had a blast playing through it. [June 2003, p.74]

It's let down by lacklustre combat and some annoying enemy design, but Prey is still a compelling, beautiful immersive sim.

Not a feast for the eyes, but there's more than a meal here if you're a glutton for clever, cruel puzzle-based punishment.

Neo Can is ambitious and thoughtful, but it sometimes overshoots into something too bleak.

One of D&D's best adventures gets an endearing, if not spellbinding, rendition. [Nov 2003, p.138]
