    The story of Act V may come off as a bit of an afterthought, but the new changes and classes breathe new life into Diablo III. [May 2014, p.60]

    • 74 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Fun enough, but hardly anything new under the shooter sun. [May 2014, p.58]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 86 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A lot of fun, but perhaps a little too polished. [May 2014, p.54]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 65 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Both familiar and interestingly different, this is a gentle introduction for newbies, or a charismatic change-up for MOBA veterans. [Apr 2014, p.61]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 53 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    An exhaustingly average game that still wouldn't be worth your time someone gave it to you. [Apr 2014, p.60]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A simple shooter with some cool puzzles. It won't change your world but acts as a pleasant enough distraction. [Apr 2014, p.59]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Despite pacing issues, Teslagrad's strange blend of science and fantasy prove that opposites do indeed attract. [Apr 2014, p.58]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 85 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    One of the finest TV to game transitions ever made, though not to everybody's taste. [Apr 2014, p.56]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    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]

    • 71 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    While it's clearly not a game for everyone, fans of the original series will find a lot to fall in love with, and at a bargain price to boot. [Apr 2014, p.54]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 70 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A thoroughly enjoyable, if somewhat diluted return to a cult favourite franchise. [Apr 2014, p.50]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Thrilling, exciting, and fun as hell, but still a few steps away from true greatness. Nonetheless - it's pure Platinum. [March 2014, p.64]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A thoroughly enjoyable fighter that marks out NeverRealm as a brawler developer to watch. [March 2014, p.63]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 59 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's difficult to tell where genius ends and incompetence begins, but either way, it's astoundingly entertaining. [March 2014, p.62]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 67 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Derivative but really well implemented, which gives the game a personality of its very own. [March 2014, p.61]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Incredible work went into the design of almost every element of Risk of Rain, shame that the gameplay couldn't have been more inspired. [March 2014, p.60]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 75 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    If you can come to grips with the controls and the rather unhelpful upgrading UI, Ring Runner can be a very rewarding experience. [March 2014, p.59]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    What initially seems like a game of dressups and progress bars reveals itself to be a much deeper story based affair. [March 2014, p.58]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 71 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A solid strategic base brought low by cheap AI and some shonky net code. [March 2014, p.56]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 80 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    For all its flaws and shortcomings, The Banner Saga's ambitions shine through well enough. [March 2014, p.52]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 34 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Serellan seems dedicated to shaping Takedown into its original pitch, but it needs far more time in the planning phase. [Feb 2014, p.90]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 66 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A competent, niche title that never fully realises its potential. Fills a gap in the modern game library but little more than that. [Feb 2014, p.88]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A space diamond in the rough, Pandora may not get everything right but exceptional combat and city management shines through. [Feb 2014, p.86]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The puzzles don't hold up against Wadjet Eye titles, but the writing remains strong. [Feb 2014, p.85]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 62 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Despite the quirky aesthetic and presentation, Redshirt is ultimately as disposable as the poor, easily-killed people it's named after. [Feb 2014, p.84]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 79 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    It might look dead on the outside, but the systemic mechanical genius of State of Decay is gloriously alive and kicking. [Feb 2014, p.82]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 70 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    The high price and lack of polish make this one to avoid for now. For art-deco die-hards only. [Jan 2014, p.93]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 61 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Enjoyable new content, but strangled by enduringly small lots and an inability to save, load and experiment. [Jan 2014, p.92]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 59 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Intermittently creepy, yet it all feels like an overblown student project; a proof of concept for a slicker, scarier game. [Jan 2014, p.91]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 68 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's exactly what fans of the franchise have grown to expect. No surprises here, folks. [Jan 2014, p.90]
