Raw, otherworldly and at times, hauntingly familiar. Masochisia is a dark diamond hidden from plain sight. The experience it offers to the brave souls who seek it out, lingers long after its disturbing end.

Outcast: Second Contact succeeds in bringing the experience of the original game over to the modern era, despite some of its issues. The work done in the visual and music department is worthy of applause and most of the design changes are spot-on. If some of the missteps regarding the controls and camera system, as well as the bugs that are present, were avoided then the overall score would have been quite a bit higher. As it stands, if you have fond memories of the original and want to relive that experience, Outcast: Second Contact is a very faithful adaptation that will take you upwards of 18-20 hours to finish.

Pure Pool offers a realistic, no frills, excellently hardcore approach to pool. Once all multiplayer/online issues are resolved, this will be the go-to title for straight up, no nonsense pool between purists.

Warhammer 40K: Armageddon is a simplified Panzer Corps in a classic and beloved sci-fi world. Hardcore strategy fans may invest in a fair price drop.

An action story using a pirate ship as a storytelling vessel. While the action part is quite enjoyable, the game lacks the necessary depth in mechanisms to enrich its gameplay and deliver that special something that would increase its replay value and make it last in time.

A more than welcome return of Double Fine's hallmark sense of twisted humor and absolute cuteness, Costume Quest 2 expands on its combat model, bringing welcome tactical depth to the proceedings, but still not quite escaping end-game repetition fatigue. A strong offering nevertheless, that can very well be my favorite annual gaming tradition, on cuteness factor alone.

A true proto-gothic horror piece, Neverending Nightmares feels like a hellish walk through an unpublished Edgar Allan Poe short story. The excellent sound design and unsettling, stylized visuals provide an experience that will linger with the player long after the end credits have rolled.

Tsioque is recommended to someone who wants to play a nice, dark, smart, but not perfect, point 'n' click adventure, while its short duration and the eccentric finale are undoubtedly shortcomings that need to be seriously considered.

A worthwhile effort, much better than the last NFS attempts and it contains the essence of the good old NFS: Underground. However, some flaws in the design hamper it from advancing to the next level.

Trine 3 is a great game although it has some minor problems and a cliffhanger ending. The fans of the series cannot go wrong with it... the magic is still there.

Marvel's Avengers is an uneven package. A good single-player campaign, held back by a lacklustre live service multiplayer segment.

Resident Evil 0 HD Remaster is a classic survival horror game with better graphics and a new control scheme. Its old school gameplay mechanics probably make it inaccessible for new players but it still remains a good game with great atmosphere.

This is not a bad game. It's just that it certainly cannot rise up to the expectations created by former titles released by Wadjet Eye Games, such as Gemini Rue, Resonance and Primordia. Nevertheless, a nice enough commercial debut for Grundislav Games and Francisco Gonzalez.

The Callisto Protocol is not going to revolutionize the genre, but it does bring some interesting ideas to the table -most notably the melee combat- that add some welcome variety to its gameplay. It could have shot higher though if it wasn't for some missteps.

Soulstice is a decent hack 'n' slash game that is not ashamed of its influences, but at the same time it attempts to deviate from them by implementing its own version of the familiar battle system. It does not have the same finesse as DMC, for example, but fans of the genre will appreciate it a little more.

A hardcore, unforgiving, old school survival horror blockbuster, heir to the same triumphs and pitfalls as all of its ilk. The story ultimately fails to make a lasting impression, but the frantic, two bullets and a prayer sense of always being half a step away from horrible death and dismemberment, greatly succeeds in making this a hugely satisfying romp through the darker side of the human psyche.

More a stylized visual novel than a "normal" point' n' click adventure, The Blind Prophet could have been much more. The impressive artwork really saves the day.

Mountains of Madness is an adventure that clearly aims at two specific target groups: the fans of H.P. Lovecraft and the unrepentant fans of traditional point 'n' click adventures. It may not be able to satisfy either of them to the fullest, but it is an honest endeavor and the almost six hours it lasts will not be considered as wasted.

With eight more months of development, The Occupation could have been the indie breakout hit suggested by glimpses of its brilliant bones throughout the experience.Technical issues and a punishing save mechanic take the joy of experimentation and exploration away from a game that could have been so much more.

Despite its minor flaws, Tesla Effect marks the return of a beloved character, it's overflowed with feeling, shows a perfect use of money gathered in Kickstarter and offers many hours of gameplay, inviting us at the same for extra playthroughs, in order to see its alternative endings.

Immensely challenging and beautifully synergistic systems come together to form an unexpectedly refreshing genre hybrid. If you're a die-hard pinball fan and not afraid of a challenge, Rollers Of The Realm will absolutely delight you.

A really fun game that just doesn't work properly right now due to frequent crashing and other technical issues. It will be worth a purchase eventually, assuming that the developers will keep working on it.

Smoke and Sacrifice is a remarkable Action-Adventure with beautiful aesthetics and cohesive crafting and itemization, blemished with backtracking and repetitive fetch quests. But, in all honesty, the most glaring flaw that becomes apparent about halfway through the story, in an otherwise enjoyable game, is the lack of really memorable, immersive moments, whether pertaining to enemy encounters, topography, or incentive to keep exploring.

The Masterplan is based on an interesting concept and is only held back by no particular effort put into creating interesting or diverse gameplay mechanics. Nevertheless, it remains quite an enjoyable game, as long as you are not expecting more than it can deliver.

With clever puzzles but also poor graphics and story, the final feeling is positive. As the difficulty is above average, the game is recommended only for the fans of the genre.

Deeply atmospheric and profoundly disturbing, 2Dark presents a seductive mix of lo-fi Hitman-like stealth coupled with Hotline Miami claustrophobia induced adrenaline rushes. The presentation and initial pricing will not be to everyone’s taste but for horror fans, here is one to remember.

Apart from the humour, which is the only positive thing about it, the rest is just the first game with a slightly different coating. If you liked the first part then go ahead and give KOPNP2 a try. But if you value your time and money, don't bother with this inexcusable mobile port.

Excellent aesthetics cyberpunk point 'n' click adventure, with a nice story and beautiful characters, which leaves a bittersweet taste in the end.
