The new racing game is visually pleasing and conceptually interesting, but with untuned gameplay. The idea of & 8203;& 8203;combining an arcade look with more serious simulation elements is nice, but the result feels unfinished.

The most realistic malfunctions and random events in the series bring the railway world to life. Railway fans will definitely not be disappointed. There are only occasional FPS drops and minor glitches.

The latest installment of the popular strategy series has moved to the period of historical Rome. It brought various gameplay improvements and traditionally excellent management.

Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection is a worthy tribute to the iconic franchise, blending games, archival footage, and history into a cohesive interactive documentary. However, it feels incomplete — some key titles and features are missing, and the historical coverage ends too soon.

NASCAR 25 is a solid debut from iRacing, with enjoyable driving and extensive setup options. Career mode feels thin, and the game lacks content like split-screen, more single-player modes, and expanded online multiplayer. Technical issues hold it back, but the core racing experience remains satisfying.

The extraction game offers a striking vision of what the Earth could become if we continue to wage wars and allow machines to dominate. However, if you want to survive, you must be inconspicuous. It's a shame that some things are not explained well enough and that the quests are so trivial.

Europa Universalis V is another brilliant grand strategy game from Paradox. It is on par with its predecessors and takes the series forward. It is challenging and complex. However, it's best not to rely too heavily on the AI's assistance, as it tends to fail.

The Czech game will win you over with its cartoonish art style and intriguing concepts. However, you will need a partner to enjoy it. Unfortunately, artificial intelligence cannot replace a human player and it is not so fun when you play alone.

The game has a clear goal - like the first part, it wants to bring back an honest horror atmosphere to fans of older survival horrors. And it succeeds in that, although you will also experience frustrating combat and lengthy running around.

Turbo Kid is a fun and content-rich Metroidvania with quirky characters and BMX action. It’s held back by minor pacing and gameplay issues, but still delivers an enjoyable experience.

The new Painkiller is here, and while you'll enjoy shooting alongside other players, it's not the game that players wanted — it's too far from the original concept.

Use your godly powers, as well as the abilities of giants, to shape populated worlds to your liking. Consoles have now joined the PC. It's a pleasant relaxation, although without a higher goal for your endeavors.

On paper, Shadow Labyrinth is a Metroidvania game that doesn't do anything wrong, but the result is just an average game. It doesn't excel in any area: the gameplay is mediocre and the graphics are uninspiring.

So, what would a game combining Forza Horizon, Burnout and Trackmania look like? Exactly like Wreckreation. It's not revolutionary, but it's a well-executed and fun mix with a strong sense of speed.

This genre-successful piece offers more valuable entertainment than many other trivial simulations. Despite its simple principles and monotonous execution of basic actions, the gameplay can surprisingly entertain you.

Fast & Furious: Arcade Edition delivers fast, explosive racing that recalls Split/Second and Burnout, offering short bursts of fun—especially in local split-screen. However, its limited content and weak adaptation from arcade to PC and consoles make the experience fade quickly.

For fans of building, architecture and planning add-ons, this is a good choice. It offers a career mode, but also a free mode for those who want to create something creative without any major restrictions. The game is purely focused on building homes, although without any deeper complex management.

The Outer Worlds 2 builds on Obsidian's strengths: an authentic, smaller-scale RPG full of possibilities, with satire and moral decisions. Rather than competing with open-world giants in terms of scope, it emphasizes its system, humor, and detail. If you enjoyed the first game or New Vegas, you will get exactly what you would expect from Obsidian here, only in a slightly bigger and prettier package, with a little more depth. It's Obsidian's most extensive RPG in this style yet.

PowerWash Simulator 2, as a sequel to the original, doesn't disappoint, but it doesn't blow you away either. It brings more or less the same thing with new scenes and a few improvements. It's still the original relaxing game without stress and with a lot of work.

Developed solo over four years, Darkenstein 3D is an impressive effort that stands out mainly because it’s completely free. While the game has its share of bugs, glitches, weak AI, and limited originality, it offers a few hours of solid, old-school shooting fun that fans of classic action games will appreciate.

Ninja Gaiden 4 delivers a fast, fluid, and brutally satisfying combat experience that stays true to the series’ roots while evolving its gameplay with modern flair. The dual protagonists, deep mechanics, and intense metal soundtrack make every fight a thrill. While the visuals lag slightly behind today’s standards and some repetition creeps in, the game’s energy, challenge, and replay value make it a strong return for the legendary action series.

Relive the glory days of classic FPS games with this Slovak arena shooter featuring comic-style graphics, metal music and dynamic gameplay. Although jamming enemies can be frustrating, it's a great experience for just 5 euros.

Keeper from Double Fine is a visually stunning and deeply atmospheric journey about companionship and renewal in a ruined world. Its ever-changing puzzles, intuitive design, and heartfelt tone create a unique experience that’s as touching as it is imaginative. Minor camera quirks aside, it stands out as one of the year’s most distinctive games.

Hlína feels like an art film at a festival — strange, unique, and quietly magical. It’s a short but memorable experience that stays with you long after it ends. The minimalist gameplay and brief length are its main drawbacks, and I also faced notable technical issues on PC. Still, the story and atmosphere carry it far. We need more games like this — just a bit more polished.

Another puzzle-filled adventure from the Slovak studio Blue Brain Games takes us into the world of the inventions and ideas of the brilliant Nikola Tesla. It's just as engaging a collection of puzzles as The House of Da Vinci.

The Paris-based independent studio Gemelli Games has come up with some great ideas for their first game, which features fun turn-based combat. Although the game isn't massive, it offers plenty of tactical depth.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is perhaps the best version of the game possible. Konami tuned the graphics, added nice gameplay and quality-of-life additions. The graphics is stealing the focus and 3D audio is welcome. The best games tend to age very slowly – this is another fine example.

LEGO Voyagers offers a short but charming co-op adventure with heartfelt, wordless storytelling. Puzzles are mostly linear, and camera or control issues can frustrate, but the emotional experience lingers.

This is the third time we have visited a world that could be described as cute, magical and romantic. It's not. It's a nightmare. But it's also very attractive and cooperative.

Alien: Rogue Incursion Evolved Edition – Part One is a VR game that has been very decently reworked into a traditional format. The first half of the story is great, with good fights and decent interaction with terminals and surrounding objects, as well as electrical puzzles. However, the lack of new areas and frequent backtracking makes it less enjoyable.

Hotel Barcelona is an entertaining but uneven experience. Its chaotic, unpolished, and occasionally frustrating nature will appeal to fans of Swery and Suda, though it doesn’t fully deliver on expectations. The gameplay is serviceable but too ordinary, and the visuals feel bland. The story is enjoyable, some concepts work, and there’s replayability, but it’s hard not to feel disappointed it didn’t come together better.

Destiny: Rising is better than you might expect, often making you forget it’s a free-to-play gacha game. The story, though separate from the main canon, feels authentic, and the action is both fun and engaging. There’s plenty of content, but much of it is locked behind slow progression, with major parts only accessible later, and the campaign reuses the same areas too often. You’ll enjoy what you’re doing, even if the places you do it in become repetitive.

This massive sequel brings a new dose of great action to the series. However, the story itself is uninteresting and drawn out unnecessarily. Navigation and travelling through the environment could also be improved.

Without more variety or meaningful rewards, it’s a multiplayer experience that only feels worthwhile at a discount.

Above all, Death on the Nile is an excellent detective story. The gameplay is immersive, the puzzles are interesting and the characters are distinctive. Technically, it's satisfactory and, since each chapter takes at least an hour, it's not a game you can complete in a weekend.

Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 remain timeless showcases of inventive gameplay and stellar design. This collection updates them with higher resolution and small tweaks, though it misses a deeper visual overhaul and still has minor camera issues. Despite that, it’s an essential package for both newcomers and longtime fans.

The combination of cleaning out an old house and chasing ghosts sounds a bit absurd. And Haunted House Renovator is a bit of an absurd game, too.

Times change, and with them games and their styling, and Silent Hill changes too – you'll either accept its transformation or reject it. But it still manages to be (un)pleasantly scary.

EA Sports FC 26 makes clear improvements, with better gameplay, expanded Career modes, and changes to FUT, but lingering glitches, limited authentic settings, and neglected modes keep it from being the full package fans want.

After more than 300 years a ghost returns, but now, manifested as a vengeful spirit. Atzu takes upon the role of onryō to finally avenge her family, as she has sworn 16 years ago. Her homeland of Ezo is vibrant, expansive, full of surprises and wants to be explored. So, while acquiring a set of Katanas, Ōdachi, Yari, Kusarigama and other tools, she slowly climbs up the ladder of names that make up the Yōtei Six. And naturally, the cloth with all their names just keeps getting bloodier and bloodier.

Dying Light: The Beast is a smaller but enjoyable addition to the series, with the return of Kyle Crane and the new mountain setting of Castor Woods. There's nothing groundbreaking here, but it's a very good amalgamation of everything we've seen in previous Dying Light games.

A massive, unique, and addictive collection with some grind and backtracking, but still worth returning to.

Shinobi: Art of Vengeance doesn’t reinvent the genre, but it successfully blends its best elements into a worthy tribute to both the series and the genre itself. At its core, it still feels like Shinobi, yet the new developers add their own touch, delivering solid action with good length, replayability, and challenge. While cluttered fights, uneven checkpoints, and a weak story hold it back, it’s still a worthy tribute to the series.

A fantastic arcade shooter with an adorable clay-modelled design. More than two decades after its original release, the remastered game has lost none of its charm. In fact, it is in great shape.

There's a reason why Hollow Knight: Silksong is such a highly anticipated and hyped title. And rightly so. While the game is enjoyable, the difficulty level may be too high for some players, and the map can sometimes feel chaotic.

Auto Shooter, set in the proven Dwarven Universe, already offers a complete package, with hordes of creatures and rare resources to discover underground. However, the difficulty level is high, and the repetition of biomes and missions unnecessarily and artificially extends the game's scope.

Another in the series of simulators, this time taking us to a restaurant that really smells of kebab. The game offers quite a bit of relaxation.

Ubisoft has brought the first, more realistic and dramatic DLC to the story of Nao and Yasuke in Claws of Awaji. You get a new small island with a short side story, a few nice missions and a new weapon. It's just a very basic content offer for the expansion and the whole thing sounds so much poorer in terms of story.

NHL 26 pushes authenticity forward with ICE-Q 2.0 and NHL EDGE data, offering more realistic player differentiation and broadcast-style presentation. While core modes like Be A Pro and HUT see meaningful refinements, the series still feels evolutionary rather than revolutionary.

If the main adventure with your favorite action archaeologist wasn't enough for you, spend a few more hours with him and uncover one more unsolved mystery. It's a pleasant time spent, but the DLC doesn't bring anything that we didn't already see in the original game.

Pokémon Friends features some catchy minigames, but its minimal presentation and lack of lasting appeal make it easy to forget.

The dynamic action with a sympathetic heroine in the PC version offers many improvements, aesthetic and playable elements, and new content in the form of music and visuals.

The hero of the manga and anime tries to win the favor of players in the platform action. He has charisma and various abilities, but it is not always easy with him.

Cronos: The New Dawn is a retrofuturistic horror-action game featuring tense survival combat, atmospheric world design and rewarding upgrades. Its slow-paced storytelling and eerie soundscape build tension to deliver a gripping 15-hour experience. However, scarce ammo, frequent deaths and tough bosses can make it feel punishing.A demanding but memorable journey for fans of atmospheric survival horror.

Brave warriors raised by Slovak developers and with the support of the Norse gods set out among monsters and gigantic Jotuns. If you are a fan of auto battler games, Jotunnslayer might entertain you. Although somewhere above it stands Achilles: Survivor, which has somewhat richer content, extra gameplay elements and half the price tag.

Kirby and the Forgotten Land on Switch 2 features many audiovisual enhancements to original content and brings along interesting extra mode with smooth integration. The Switch 2 version is superior to base game and is the definitive edition with plenty of ideas and level design showcases.

The renewed legend is once again trying to win the hearts of players - both older and younger. It still manages to entertain and stands solidly alongside current shooters. But it doesn't bring any surprises. It will be appreciated mainly by console players.

Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S remains a fun and addictive fusion of two iconic puzzle games, offering the same solid gameplay as the original and even the first entry from years ago. Most of the new additions could have been delivered as a free update, making this version hard to recommend to returning players.

Close to its 2-year anniversary, the murderous puppet returns with an ever-so-brilliant DLC that not only rivals the design of the original game, but in many aspects surpasses what was puppeteered before. This expansion shines with mechanical brilliance, is drenched in even more oil and blood, and most important of all, shows the amazing snow tech that was developed! Apart from many new bosses, great level design, memorable locations, curious storylines, and a ton of quality-of-life improvements, we are simply getting more of what made Lies of P amazing.

There are shortcomings. Some date back as far as 30 years. Nevertheless, I believe this is a collection that should not be missing from the library of any fan of the genre. Many people got it for free from the library anyway. Two once-popular fantasy action games have been revived in a modernised version with a huge amount of content, lots of improvements, and new features that make them even better games.

Building brighter tomorrows in a ruined world is back, and while it doesn't bring anything new or surprising, it's still fun.

On the one hand, the return of the cult game in an improved edition was pleasing, but at the same time, it showed that it can hardly compete with the latest RPGs.

Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound is built on respect — respect for the legacy of the series and respect in how it modernizes a nearly 40-year-old concept. While it might seem like just another pixel-art action platformer at first glance, this is a well-crafted game that delivers a great experience for both longtime fans and newcomers alike. There are minor design flaws, but the engaging and fun gameplay easily overshadows them.

Mafia: The Old Country continues in the story-driven style of Mafia 1 and 2, but serves as a prequel set in early 1900s Sicily. It follows the rise of Enzo within a local crime family, with a focus on narrative, grounded combat, and atmospheric world-building.

This action-packed, 2D, hack-and-slash game featuring permanent death is aimed at hardcore gamers and roguelike enthusiasts who won't be put off by failure. Although the game itself is relatively short, it takes a lot of tries to reach the finale.

Dunk City Dynasty doesn't try to hide its free-to-play and partially pay-to-win nature. But even without investing real money, you can still have fun on the courts thanks to stylish graphics, real players, and fast-paced, dynamic streetball matches.

Auto battler games are starting to become a trend, and Achilles: Survivor is one of the best. It impresses with its well-used Greek mythology, addictive gameplay, and decent variability of options and characters.

Misc. A Tiny Tale is a charming, short 3D platformer clearly inspired by Chibi-Robo—to the point where it often feels like a fan-made tribute or low-budget clone. That said, it’s a wholesome experience with a good heart, cheerful atmosphere, and likable robotic characters. Unfortunately, the game never truly excels—its platforming feels imprecise, combat is dull, and the visuals reflect its limited budget. It’s cute, but hard to shake the feeling you’re playing a "Chibi-Robo from Wish."

Building a settlement on the back of a large, wandering creature is original, but also difficult. While the interaction with your walking home is interesting, the gameplay could be more in-depth and the story is boring.

With an expanded selection of minigames, new catchy modes and implementation of Switch 2 hardware features, this is the definitive edition of Super Party Mario Jamboree. It brings not only better resolutions or framerate, but nice content additions for long party sessions.

Thankfully, this collection still shines with addictive gameplay and a wealth of content that will keep you hooked for hours. Visual upgrades breathe new life into these classics for a modern audience. However, it’s not without flaws: Pro Skater 4 strays a bit from its original design, some odd choices affect the overall experience, and the heavily altered soundtrack is a noticeable letdown.

A new grounded and sometimes truly bizarre adventure across the well-known regions of medieval Bohemia sets our beloved Henry of Skaliz on a colourful path created by brushes and strokes of a mysterious painter. He’s not interested in sharing, death follows him wherever he goes and his weird requests produce truly unique scenarios. Alongside a new story came a few gameplay elements such as shield painting, horse racing or even haircuts, which all eagerly await the return of the blacksmith hero.

Unfinished Business offers a more action-driven and story-focused experience than the base game, with solid movie tie-ins and satisfying combat. However, the side content is weaker, and the RPG elements feel out of place. A fun 11-hour ride, though it misses the chance to fix some flaws from the original.

A fresh and ambitious 3D platformer that builds on Odyssey’s strengths, Donkey Kong Bananza trades tradition for freedom—and mostly succeeds.

The revamped Stronghold Crusader comes with expanded content, but also the awkward intelligence of military units, which are also poorly balanced.

The main character, Hanna, with her friends is doing well in the town of Eriksholm and, thanks to her cleverness and stealth techniques, she will win you over.

Forever Skies offers a relaxing survival experience with a unique atmosphere and an intriguing premise. However, its shallow gameplay loop lacks depth and urgency, making it easy to put down after a short session. While the game has charm, it struggles to stand out in a crowded genre full of similar titles.

Chinese craftsman has his hands full with work, as you can see for yourself. You can start by building a house and workshops, then work your way up to the Great Wall of China and beyond. It's enjoyable, but also hard work. It's a certain stereotype, but you also get a nice view of your work in a picturesque environment.

The journey through a desert filled with decaying cities and bones adds to the impressive atmosphere of the harsh world that you will explore. Although the journey could have been longer, it offers fans of horror and Lovecraft an extraordinary experience.

The return to the Von Braun Space Station was a source of embarrassment, but in the end, nostalgia won out. The cult classic is back and still has its unique charm.

Fast Fusion is an excellent arcade racer that could have been one of the best Switch 2 launch titles. Its fast, addictive gameplay deserves hundreds of hours, but the lack of online multiplayer holds it back. The €15 price helps, though many would gladly pay more for a full online experience.

While the game offers fewer options than other sports management titles, it still provides several enjoyable hours of gameplay. The experience can feel repetitive in later seasons, but when played in moderation, it’s a solid pick for fans of GT World Series or WEC who want a simplified taste of team management and race strategy.

Some of you may spend more time reading this short review than playing the game itself. That's actually its biggest problem. Paying for a 30-minute experience, even at an extremely low price, leaves a strange aftertaste. You're still not sure if it was worth it.

What could have been a truly compelling experience ends up feeling like a festival of missed opportunities and half-baked ideas. With a shallow execution of its concept and a short runtime of about six and a half hours, Tron: Catalyst disappoints. Both the franchise and the players deserved better.

The game is easy to control and there is a reason to come back again and again for that rush of dopamine from fast-paced, diverse action in graphically beautiful space shootouts.

Death Stranding 2 may not match the sales figures of its predecessor, nor recapture the magic of the original. However, it is a well-crafted sequel with expanded gameplay, new territories, a great plot, and lots of Metal Gear Solid elements waiting to be discovered after all these years.

Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition on Switch 2 offers a complete, content-rich experience with solid performance, exclusive improvements, and fair pricing. Despite some technical compromises, it remains a must-play RPG. A great entry point for newcomers.

And most important of all, never forget to take a quick shower with your fellow cleaners, as the ever-present paranatural and Hiss lurk all around you.

This unique MMORPG features many original elements, and you don't need to be a fan of the book or any film adaptations. However, to enjoy it, you need to be passionate about the survival genre, which forms the basis of this online world. Over the next few months and years, Dune could well flourish and become one of the top games in the genre.

The Sun has disappeared, waters dried out, and darkness slowly creeped upon the inhabitants of this hand-moulded land of clay. Heads have forsaken bodies, houses started walking and creators felt unfulfilled. Horrors of beyond, terror and somber spread. Bizarrely scary, yet wonderful world, that resonates with lovely tunes and immaculate voices. And now as a last hope, the Burnt One and his Potboy friend have embarked on their Midnight Walk to journey to the Moon Mountain, in hopes of spreading the fire where others before them have failed to do so.

A sleek but ultimately pointless release. Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour feels more like a paid interactive manual than a game—dull, uninspired, and lacking the fun we expect from Nintendo.

If there's one thing Poles are really good at, it's video game development. This is confirmed once again by the 11 Bit studios team. After Frostpunk, they bring another great title in which you clone yourself, manage a base, explore and fight for survival on an inhospitable planet.

Mario Kart World is all about big numbers—tons of content, characters, vehicles, power-ups, tracks, and music. It all adds up to countless hours of fun, making this a game you'll be coming back to for years.

F1 25 represents a nice evolutionary step forward in the series, it's not a leap, but a step in the right direction - it expands the modes to include links to the upcoming film, adapts My Team to a management form, and most importantly improves the driving physics.
