No amount of noir stylings and serial killers can save this clunky game. Too bad — the idea itself was good.

Tekken 7 is a great time-killer that can hold its own against the latest installments of Guilty Gear and BlazBlue.

Creating a fun fighting game is akin to art. Only the select few have mastered this art form to perfection over the decades: Katsuhiro Harada, Daisuke Ishiwatari and NetherRealm’s Ed Boon.

Duality is the biggest flaw of Dirt 4. Fans of colorful arcade racing games will find it too dull and unforgiving, while hardcore rally enthusiasts continue to enjoy their DiRT Rally and Richard Burns Rally.

If you're lifting ideas from other games, you should at least try to hit their level of quality, otherwise it's a waste of time and resources. Regalia is a frustratingly simple exercise in micromanagement with colorful characters and passable writing which only seems like a serious strategy game.

The developers can still fix NBA Playgrounds if they’re willing to do so. All they need to do is add more brains to AI, add competitions and re-balance attack and defense. Otherwise this game is just another reason to remember the awesomeness that was NBA 2K17.

Three or four hours into the game, and your interest in F13 will inevitably fade — this game desperately needs more variety in situations. All sessions are too similar, and, if you are lucky enough to become the first victim, you will have to remain a spectator for the rest of the session.

Blitzkrieg 3 wants to be a serious, hardcore game, but in reality, this is light strategy fare. It's best consumed in short, two hours tops, sessions.

Simple, but fun gameplay mechanics, appealing graphics, realistic physics make Snake Pass an enjoyable experimental 3D platformer. It needs a little bit more work to become a game, though.

Red Barrels built the sequel on the tried more of the same principle, but this is by far is not the worst problem of the second installment.

A forgettable game with a simplistic story and primitive puzzles. As soon as you leave the game, they quickly fade away like memories of a seemingly fun dream.

Even though I wish that Endless Space 2 had fully controllable battles and smarter AI opponents, this is still an amazing game that you will be exploring for hours.

There is no universal formula, a sure-fire method that allows you to instantly master any character, and this is why Central Fiction is so fun to play.

A sloppy sequel to a great game marred with decade-old problems.

It's the only modern multiplayer FPS based on the Vietnam war, and its developers used all their past experience to create a fun, stylish and very gory shooter. That being said, next time Tripwire will have to come up with something more original than that.

Postcard-pretty landscapes is pretty much all that there is good about Andromeda. They serve as backdrops for a boring, cliche-ridden, somewhat demented story with forgettable characters and even more forgettable missions.

After spending a dozen of hours with Pixel Privateers, I realized that its true kinsman is Cookie Clicker because they both boil down to the same idea: you repeat the same few actions ad nauseum in order to increase pointless numbers.

It's a doppelganger of Banished - the same ideas, but with less polish and oversimplified.

Strafe is not even close to the real first-person shooters of the 90s. If it were released in 1996, it would've died a quick death at the hands of its more polished rivals.

This brutal saga about power and burden of choice is such a captivating adventure that you quickly forget about the game's minor flaws.

Dawn of War 3 is a decent enough game, but don't expect any strategic depth, though.

The Nonary Games is an awesome compilation for all true fans of adventure games.

I really feel sorry for Ghost Warrior 3 - this is the first game in the series that had a potential to finally rival Sniper Elite. Unfortunately, things like weak stealth mechanics, awful story and pointless open world really let it down.

An impressive bestiary of rogue DNA horrors, a charismatic hero and a huge world to explore. This is enough to forgive Rain World for a few weird design choices and at times wonky jumping mechanics.

We've been waiting for the developers of GalCiv 3 to fix their end-game mechanics, and they finally did.

This is probably the most impressive, inventive story about a family curse. And one of the best interactive dramas I've played.

A charming, original platformer with beautiful visuals and easy puzzles. You'll probably never play it again after finishing the first and only walkthrough in 4-5 hours, but you'll definitely enjoy this intense adventure.

Yes, you can nitpick Prey's ending, uneven shooter mechanics and voice-over volume. But it won't change a thing, because Prey is amazing.
