    A solid alternative to the deluge of twitch-based multiplayer shooters, with great potential to draw in new fans to the realism shooter scene. [Nov 2011, p.42]

    • 76 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A return-to-roots competitive FPS romp, let down a little by its niche target audience and our smaller local community. [June 2013, p.89]

    • 76 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The difficulty makes Furi pretty inaccessible, but if you like to be punished, this is the game for you. [Issue#253, p.64]

    A few poignant moments make this worth checking out, but what you'll truly feel is the emptiness of unfulfilled potential. [March 2012, p.48]
    • 75 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A short, sharp dose of boardgame action, that has a disarmingly sweet art style and great mechanics. [Oct 2015, p.62]

    With enough tweaks to make the game feel fresh, and enough of the same formula to keep the game comfortable, this is a great Total War entry.

    • 80 Critic Score
    Fan service of the highest level, though feels a little samey at times. [Nov 2014, p.54]

    • 75 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Don't write this off as glorified shareware. Avadon has charm, as if it were an old gem unearthed. [Sept 2011, p.58]

    If you've always wanted to do Rick's laundry, this is the game for you. [Issue#262, p.59]

    Over the top hacking action combined with open world exploration, but with a social conscience and a very welcome sense of humor. [Issue#258, p.60]
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Synergistic puzzle gameplay is headmeltingly addictive (and beautiful), though it's more like gardening than being a god. [Aug 2013, p.82]

    The way the game is a whole response to the shortcomings of the original just goes to demonstrate how GSC believes in this title and IP. [Nov 2008, p.51]

    • 75 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    At times entertaining, but for the most part Shadow of War is an exercise in frustration and exploitation. [Issue#268, p.62]

    The world of Adol keeps you at arm's length, but the intricate and clever fighting will pull you right in. [Issue#266, p.56]

    A more-than-capable shooter that is a blast to play. Shame about the pings. [Sept 2012, p.59]

    If you enjoyed Dishonored for its supernatural systems alone, Dunwall City Trials is worth its meagre price. [Feb 2013, p.79]

    It may not impress with clever mechanics, but Jazzpunk is a genuinely funny comedy romp that will put a smile on your face. [Apr 2014, p.55]

    • 80 Critic Score
    A unique take on the zombie apocalypse, and one we would love to see more of in the future. [June 2011, p.67]
