A game that strips the concept of turn-based strategy to its bare bones, without an intriguing story, but with a tedious grind that will turn the player away very soon.- PLAY! Zine

Compared to its predecessor, Championship Edition 2 offers more stuff to do, yet it never manages to achieve the pure arcade bliss that entranced the player to spend hours on end.- PLAY! Zine

In a nutshell, Grow Up could be described as "just another indie platformer" especially with its wonky physics. There are some performance issues, but even with them it's a relaxing romp that can help you unwind during its 4-hour running time.- PLAY! Zine

Even considering this was a portable-first, God Eater 2 in its PS4 edition remains a rather unspectacular game. But, its brilliance lies in its core, the deep gameplay system with numerous weapon modifiers. It's not for everyone, though it doesn't need to be.- PLAY! Zine

The fifth episode delivers a rather high difficulty spike, which was honestly needed in the episodic Hitman. It is an improvement over the previous episodes and deserves to be played by Hitman fans and stealth fans in general.- PLAY! Zine

Blizzard has done it again. Legion not only delivered the trademark Blizzard style, but it's bringing back the veteran WoW players with hundreds of new quests and the most brilliant and complex story so far. And for an MMO that's going on for over a decade - that is an achievement worthy of every recommendation.- PLAY! Zine

For the fans of the beat 'em up genre, this is a must. Yet, it won't leave its mark on the gaming world bar the impressive amount of political incorrectness, staying just above the average of the gaming spectrum.- PLAY! Zine

Shiny could've been a good game that would leave its mark in the platforming genre. It could've stood toe to toe with Meat boy, Mario and even Portal. It could have, but it doesn't.- PLAY! Zine

Not only is it a frustrating game at its core, but Clustertruck also suffers from serious case of bugginess in which the player usually can’t manage to do what he’s trying. You don't need this kind of frustration in your life.- PLAY! Zine

It might have its elements reduced to the core, but the game manages to keep it simple while offering frenetic action, an intriguing story and colorful cast that will keep you playing until you see the credits roll.- PLAY! Zine

Just what the adrenaline junkies wanted for so many years, Redout is an audio-visual bomb that manages to deliver impressive sense of speed, brilliant track design and a thumping soundtrack.- PLAY! Zine

The collection of all Bioshock games isn't a bad remaster, but neither is it an outstanding one. For the console crowd it’s a worthy addition to their collection, but for PC players it doesn't offer a big enough improvement.- PLAY! Zine

In the vast sea of reboots and remakes, Cossacks 3 offers the familiar experience. That, unfortunately, isn't enough by today's strategy standards, especially considering its low production value.- PLAY! Zine

For the first independent project from a small studio, Aragami is more than good and a welcome return to the stealth genre. If only it wasn't marred by plethora of bugs and unresponsive controls.- PLAY! Zine

Puzzle platformer that neither presents a proper challenge nor has fun gameplay, Human: Fall Flat relies on its wonky physics too much to create comedy that it forgot one thing - to be playable.- PLAY! Zine

When you skip plethora of AAA games to spend your free time playing a small indie title, you know how good the experience is. Space Run Galaxy is just that - a simple, yet slick game, perfect little "time waster".- PLAY! Zine

As with the recent LEGO games, Force Awakens is a fun distraction for a while, but ultimately doesn't bring much to the overcrowded branch of LEGO games.- PLAY! Zine

Armello is so gorgeous, it kept reminding us that there is no an actual physical board game like this even though it really deserves to be. The game successfully mixes several elements from other genres, telling story and making our imagination run wild.- PLAY! Zine

Catalyst is an example of how bigger doesn't always have to mean better. Some games don't benefit from becoming an open world adventure and should stick to what worked well, even amazing in the original. Catalyst unfortunately, traded quality for quantity.- PLAY! Zine

A game, a promise, which sometimes turns into a pleasant surprise, while turning into a void at others. Void that, one day, might get filled by promises that the developers made, however it still captivated us to push forward and explore.- PLAY! Zine

By all accounts an average game, Lost Sea doesn't excel neither in its gameplay department, nor visual presentation. It is an entry game for beginners to the action RPG genre, but even they could find a much better experiences elsewhere.- PLAY! Zine

BetaDwarf not only managed to create an addictive base game, but they hit it out of the park with a DLC that properly expands the experience. Settsa might get a nerf at one point, but it's tremendously fun to play.- PLAY! Zine

Another "strange" game from Blendo, Quadrilateral Cowboy feels more like a proof of concept that will leave you just wanting from it to be more, well, everything. It sets its concepts up nicely, but doesn't do much with them.- PLAY! Zine

Bangkok offers the player even more possibilities and options when approaching the mission, putting Agent 47 in the most gorgeous setting so far. Small bugs are still present, unfortunately.- PLAY! Zine

An investment in nearly endless amounts of fun, Drawful 2 is a definitive party game for up to 8 players that's so easy to grasp, so everyone can play. Its low price is a perfect reason not to miss this little gem.- PLAY! Zine

Of many mainstream superheroes, Batman is among the darkest and most mature, which is the tone TellTale absolutely managed to hit. This is a great start to a potentially amazing season, with familiar gameplay but palpable atmosphere.- PLAY! Zine

Aside from the lack of variety, Dead by Daylight at its core is brilliant, with an idea that's fresh and truly something we haven't played before. With more additional content, this could become a must-buy game for horror fans.- PLAY! Zine
