An original concept and deceptively complex time-waster. [June 2011, p.73]

Based heavily on Dungeon Keeper 2, this title with its twelve year old trappings has ignored all the innovations that have come since. [June 2015, p.62]

There's fun to be had, but for every step towards the Light Side, there's a foot stuck firmly in the Dark Side of bad design decisions. [Issue#269, p.52]

If Trion can introduce better quest design, this will be a winner. [June 2013, p.88]

Proof that gleeful surrealism does not automatically indicate arthouse brilliance. [Aug 2011, p.74]

Bland and basic chopper sim which may destroy your PC. [Mar 2011, p.70]

It might have had a bumpy take-off, but with a bit of hard work Flight should grow into a competent sim worth flying. [May 2012, p.56]

A slick and stylish stealth-action game that could do with some greater depth. [Issue#265, p.60]

Too uneven to be great but there are few games that have done powerful destructive magic better. [Issue#265, p.54]

Nicely balanced in many ways, but frustrating for the single player. Not detailed/stable enough for interactive, co-operative play yet, either. [May 2013, p.86]

Better options available, but not a write-off. [Feb 2011, p.67]

A game of grand ideas, then, if not grand strategy. There is a core here that deserves further exploration. [Aug 2013, p.83]

A great narrative experience but rather dull from a gameplay standpoint. [Aug 2015, p.62]

Frantic action, excessive gore and challenging progression with a touch of nostalgia that is a laugh while it lasts with little depth. [Issue#263, p.54]

Stick to human-on-human multiplayer. There's simply no reason to engage with campaign mode or Skirmish at all. [May 2010, p.60]

Difficult, ucompromising and obtuse, Inquisition will appeal to fans of the hardest of hardcore old-school RPGs. [Nov 2012, p.84]

A strange, sad, introspective tone poem of a game. Totally engrossing if you have the patience. [Oct 2015, p.65]

A fun old-school beat ‘em up with a few modern twists.

An easy-to-play casual RTS. Starts a bit slow but the stylised graphics and immersive sound keep you hooked. [Jan 2010, p.81]

An indie platformer that never quite gets past proclaiming "Me too!" It's enjoyable in parts, but also forgettable. [Jan 2013, p.83]

It is not going to set the world afire with a wild reimagining of the format, but Imperium Romanum is a solid and enjoyable city management simulation, with some gorgeous graphics, an evocative soundtrack, and very confident execution. [May 2008, p.64]

A surprisingly compelling indie gem. Flawed, but fun for the stalwart adventure fan. [Feb 2011, p.69]

The presentation is great but the actual gameplay is firmly rooted in the early 90s. [Sept 2015, p.59]

Cold and expressionless. [Jan 2010, p.57]

Marketed more towards newbies than the hardcore SimCity veteran, Tilted Mill has found an amiable balance between dumbing down some of the more difficult aspects of the classic game and creating an interesting new system of city management. [Jan 2008, p.59]

Some will be fascinated by its near-impenetrable story, but it is incredibly backwards in puzzle design and interface. [Feb 2010, p.61]

Admirably essential in its space-tradingness, but should have stayed on the tablets. [Nov 2012, p.80]
