The online game is excellent, but the lack of some beloved features is very irksome. [Issue#264, p.59]

With some serious control patching, Impact Winter will be great. As it stands, it's almost unplayable. [Issue#263, p.73]

A fresh take on an age old formula, beautifully crafted for its VR approach, but the labour required detracts a bit from the fun. [Issue#263, p.72]

Thanks to the addition of magic, Mirage breathes new life into the competitive melee arena. [Issue#263, p.71]

Inner Chains looks good, but beneath the veneer is a mess of bad mechanics and disappointing design. [Issue#263, p.69]

Not Platinum Games greatest title, but still an absolute blast. [Issue#263, p.68]

Definitely worth the price of admission. Runic Rampage is simple, moreish dungeon bashing. [Issue#263, p.64]

Sleek and competent and detailed and not really very exciting. [Issue#263, p.62]

A quirky approach to turn-based combat. [Issue#263, p.60]

Despite some pacing and story flaws, the thoughtful, tactical combat is always engrossing. [Issue#263, p.58]

A great game of action and exploration, with rich, interlocking mechanics. May be a little bit derivative, but a tonne of fun nonetheless. [Issue#263, p.56]

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]

Rime is gorgeous, gentle and sad journey through a strange land. Let it wash over you. [Issue#263, p.51]

Look, there is nothing wrong with Halo Wars 2... as a bonus game that comes free with Halo 6 or whatever. But as a premium, full-priced title? No. No, we deserve more than this. A franchise like Halo, with its rich fictional universe, its cool unit design, its super-clear mix of human and alien factions, deserves more than this.

A mash of genres that feels like a classic game that never was.

Creepy and cute in equal measure, Little Nightmares is a short but tense ride. [Issue#262, p.65]

When it's at half price or less thanks to a Steam sale, grab it. [Issue#262, p.64]

Sometimes the randomness gets in the way, but otherwise Asura is a blast. [Issue#262, p.63]

Shiness is a decent camera away from being a great game. [Issue#262, p.62]

Brilliant execution of a unique premise. A definite contender for game of the year so far. [Issue#262, p.61]

Outlast 2 may have proven to be controversial, but it's also proven to be a genuinely unnerving survival horror game. [Issue#262, p.60]

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

A deep tactical - and strategic - RPG. [Issue#262, p.58]

When it works it works pretty darn well. Unfortunately that isn't too often. [Issue#262, p.56]

Plays like MOBA, smells like Heresy. [Issue#262, p.51]

A warm, moving tale of alienation and redemption in the era of late stage capitalism.

It's not the most complex or nuanced of games, but the boss battles are great and the combat is brutally compelling. [Issue#261, p.70]

It was clearly all utter gibberish so I forgot it immediately. [Issue#261, p.69]
