The unique and beautiful art style of the previous games in the series is raised to the next level in Lorelai. Unfortunately, games fail to capture the same psychologically dark and disturbing atmosphere of the first 2 games, but it's still a great game!- PLAY! Zine

A fun dungeon crawling dating sim, with more sexual tension than we ever thought a single Nintendo system could withstand. It appears Nintendo Switch really is an amazing milestone console in the rich Nintendo history. Where were we... Oh, yeah. A fun game!- PLAY! Zine

One of the best carting games in history is back in its full glory, more beautiful than ever, and a lot of new maps and (FREE) cosmetics to customise your characters and vehicles.- PLAY! Zine

Judgement presents to the player gritty, noir-esque, and at the same time wholesome and funny story in modern Japan, all while remaining original to itself and successfully departing itself from its predecessor series – Yakuza.- PLAY! Zine

F1 2019 is another great instalment to the ongoing Codemasters’ franchise of F1 games. Although it presents a bulk of quality of life updates, short story mode, and F2 license, it still isn’t much of a big upgrade from last year.- PLAY! Zine

The most powerful Super Mario level designer tool is back. Whether you want to create or test out the creations of others, there is no doubt you will have a blast with Super Mario Maker 2. Unless Cappy brainwashed you and... Oh who am I kidding, this is a great game, and a must buy for any lover of the classic Super Mario platformer adventures.- PLAY! Zine

A Plague Tale: Innocence is a great game about a couple of siblings with very different lives, forced to survive in a dangerous world, constantly on the run. Asobo studio manages to tell this dark tale really well, always keeping the player on the edge of the seat, questioning which of the many enemies will get them first.- PLAY! Zine

This is a 3D puzzle game in which you have to play vignettes in order to reach the puzzles. Creating team dabbled with every type of game genre they could have, and created this Frankengame.- PLAY! Zine

Truberbrook is a fine example of interesting design, craftsmanship, and dedication of the developer. But as an adventure game, it does not do anything overly to new and exciting. The story is fine, characters are interesting and the puzzles can be relaxingly easy or frustratingly unintuitive.- PLAY! Zine

A fast-paced title in both terms of gameplay and narration, The Princess Guide is not the deepest of games action-wise but surely is a fun experience. The visual style itself should be enough to get you hooked if you are in any sense an anime fan. If not, there are plenty of other games out there for you! But it won't make this game a bad one, even if you do skip it.- PLAY! Zine

If you would call this a poor man's Persona, you would not be far from the truth. But is there really no beauty in poverty? Yeah, this game made us think about stuff way too much, but that does not mean it is not a great and fun title. It lacks a bit of polish but still offers plenty of reasons for you to grab a Switch and delve into its world of lies, mystery and moral dilemmas. Oh and some catchy j-pop too!- PLAY! Zine

This is a well thought and designed puzzler with next to chaotic controls, but loads of charm. Let us not forget the eerie atmosphere that is hard to forget, long after you finish playing. But the sense of accomplishment is its greatest treasure. It comes from a serious level of difficulty not everyone is ready for - so tread carefully.- PLAY! Zine

Lego Movie 2 The Game is a fun game for the younger audience, but if you are a bit older, you will find it slow and repetitive. When you add the fact that it looks exactly like Lego Worlds, with extra characters, the game is not worth the money, and also the time.- PLAY! Zine

Hell Warders brings a twist to tower defense genre where you can jump in with your unique character and directly fight of the hordes of hell. This game is much more enjoyable when played with friends in co-op, but sadly there are no dedicated servers.- PLAY! Zine

Beat Cop is an interesting point and click cop simulator with great humor. The mechanic of the game is interesting in the beginning but does not evolve for later levels. The time concept is neat, but limits the player’s ability to roam and discover more events and things to do.- PLAY! Zine

Truly superb gameplay gets held back by some serious lack of content. Only nine playable characters, a few stages and heartbreakingly basic gameplay modes, prevent this game from truly shining. But even so, Battle for the Grid is a fun fighting game that can only improve, by adding some more content to it.- PLAY! Zine

Not a Beat Saber with blasters in any way, but still a really simplistic yet enjoyable, rollercoaster-like experience not for the faint of heart. If you are in any way into fast and challenging shooters, do not miss this simple and exciting ride. It can really get you hooked.- PLAY! Zine

Days Gone tries its best to bring something new to the table of an already overused post-apocalyptic zombie shooter genre. It gets some things right and some things not that great, but as an overall experience, it's a game packed with a great atmosphere and some darn fun exploration. If you liked games like Mad Max or you're in absolute love with the zombie survival games, try not to miss this one.- PLAY! Zine

The Division 2 is one of the best looter shooter games available, and puts other to shame. This sequel is perfectly built on original by implementing and perfecting ideas that work fantastically in post-apocalyptic Washington D.C.- PLAY! Zine
