Doom is hands-down one of the best FPS in years. Obviously, it will bring no revolution, as its grandfathers did 20+ years ago, but it doesn't blush with shame carrying such a grandiose title and it is surely a worthy heir of the series.

UnderDread falls victim of its humble origins as well as the negative price/duration ratio. Unfortunately the competition in the PC platform is relentless, with hordes of indie titles inundating digital stores on a weekly basis.

Project CARS GOTY, simply put, is a good racing game that just became even better: Plenty of cars and tracks to choose from, compelling and realistic gameplay, plus it looks drop dead gorgeous. If anyone was waiting for a time to jump on the Project CARS train, now is the time.

Pang Adventures is a particularly positive surprise. It still is a simplistic game on its core, but it’s embellished with lots of new elements. Definitely one of the best games DotEmu has offered us. Priced at €8.99 it’s worth even a full price purchase.

Kathy Rain is a really exciting point 'n' click adventure that every fan of eerie and dark adventures should play, even if it is hard for some to swallow the pill of the AGS engine.

In theory this game should appeal to everybody, causing emotion, but falls short on that. The reason why it fails to stand out is that it gives a sense of haste in completing and offers very fragmentary moments of the life of Will, with superficial and one-sided coverage of events that shaped the character and marked the soul of the deceased protagonist.

A clever idea that has you managing a pro gamer or a pro gaming team. Unfortunately, everything in the game is completely random so any notion of strategy quickly disappears and the game becomes monotonous and repetitive.

If you love 60’s rock and roll culture, Wailing Heights’ wicked funny script will have you in stitches despite some obvious rough budget edges in production. There’s a fierce soul kicking in this one and the gorgeous artwork and inspired, wacky soundtrack more than make up for its mechanical shortcomings.

The stunning graphics and the exceptional music, as well as voice overs, are not enough for a game that lacks appropriate optimization and a satisfactory interpretation of the events we tail after, packed in no longer than 5 hours. A very promising narrative experience that proves inadequate in many key areas.

Aurion: Legacy of the Kori-Odan is a rough-gem: although a little unpolished, it leaves a rare sense of a unique game, while it reflects to the player all the passion of its creators for it.

Rival Games launched an ambitious course with the first episode of “The Detail”, continued even better with the second and somewhere there apparently lost its orientation and came to deliver us a third and final episode which is weaker compared to its predecessors and unfortunately fails to rise to the occasion.

A remarkable game that has many things to offer for 20+ hours and some optional stuff which remains interesting past that mark. A few tweaks in balancing and randomizing effects would vastly improve it. Even though it can’t compete with The Binding of Isaac in terms of pure addiction and content, it’s adequately competent as far as action roguelike games go.

A pleasant, imaginative, original and fair –regarding the amount of money it targeted on Kickstarter- adventure game. It doesn’t last long, but features a rich and vivid world, accompanied by excellent voice overs and harmonious music orchestration.

A strong and marked improvement over The Showstopper, Sapienza begins to irrefutably prove Io Interactive’s vision for its episodic release model of the latest incarnation of Hitman. Offering an absolute wealth of possibilities, Sapienza is made to be replayed time and again in order to discover every single one of the creative and imaginative murder methods available.

The strongest episode in a mini-series that feels much like Fear The Walking Dead. It will tide over hardcore fans but ultimately, despite its top notch production values, it fails to create the palpable tension and soul-clenching misery that is the franchise’s hallmark.

Another silver-ball homerun for Zen Studios, Aliens vs. Pinball perfectly captures and translates the deep-space horror of the Aliens universe into a riveting pinball adventure. A must for pinball and Aliens universe enthusiasts alike.

Unorthodox, intoxicating fun from a time when everything seemed to be simpler, easier and full of beautiful danger. It may not be the Lost Holy Grail of 90’s point-and-click adventure gamers, but Red Comrades is a true cult gem, sparkling with irreverent humor and deranged puzzles. Given its low price point, it’s very easy to recommend to genre fans looking for something off the beaten path.

The epic story of the banner comes again to touch our sensitive inner self. The second chapter of the saga is full of pain, grief, anxiety, courage and heroism. Lets sit by the fire and sing again songs about heroic deeds, forgotten gods and the loved ones who were lost along the way. The Banner Saga 2 is all about feelings.

A perfect example of how one studio can improve a game, based on the players’ remarks, without ruining anything of the elements that worked well on its previous versions. MXGP2 is possibly the best motocross videogame today.

Via this new expansion pack, Baldur's Gate awakens after many years in hibernation. Even though it will not prove so sensational in the current era of kickstarted RPGs, it still succeeds in finding its place among contemporary epics, such as Pillars of Eternity and Divinity: Original Sin. Siege of Dragonspear may be a bit late to the party and not flawless, nonetheless it's a faithful installment in the series.

A true old school platformer with a lot of trial and error and many "cheap" deaths. Gamers who have the patience to deal with this will enjoy the story and some moments of good level designing.

Stories: The Path of Destinies is a charming "choose-your-own-adventure" action game, with a handful of RPG elements and an interesting narration method that will keep you on your toes in order to explore its vibrant world.

Quantum Break delivers a naïve but well-meaning sci-fi yarn aimed at the adolescent crowd, coupled with solid, even if ultimately unimpressive shooting mechanics and action set-pieces. Atrocious PC port aside, Quantum Break, if thoroughly patched and developed post launch, can find it’s niche as a sci-fi guilty pleasure, but it does not live up to Remedy’s lofty heritage.

Outer Rim offers some new variation in strategies to Battlefront, with the new cards and guns. However, the few levels which are added add little to a still lacking content, while the matchmaking problems and unorthodox UI menus persist.

Dark Souls 3 completes the epic trilogy in the best way possible. It manages to be fresh and simultaneously so familiar. So, embrace the darkness and when you emerge victorious you can proudly shout to the heavens: Praise the Sun!

More intensely personal than any interactive movie you’ve played in years, Black Friday fearlessly explores one of the least visited pages of 20th century history. The first time you held a rock in your hand, it changed you forever. This is emotional, personal storytelling at it’s finest. Even better, it makes a bold statement about the fact that there is world history outside the sphere of Western propaganda.

Although Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak doesn’t reinvent the wheel, there is no denying that it is a superb example of how modern Real Time Strategy games should look, feel and play. Accessible, intense and hauntingly beautiful at times, it manages to present a gripping tale of agony and desperation through one of the best single player campaigns the genre has ever witnessed.

The first out of three single-player mission DLCs for Starcraft 2 provides a promising story which may be an improvement on Blizzard’s recent stale storytelling.The duration of this pack is somewhat short for its price, but the production values are still top notch. If you want a little bit more of single-player fun on SC2, you may want to give it a try.
