The latest chapter in the Dragon Age saga successfully combines the best of semi-open-world gameplay with a balanced and engaging combat system. While Dragon Age: The Veilguard falls short of previous installments in areas like side quests, story choices, and dialogue depth, it excels in combat quality, world design, and audiovisual presentation, delivering some of the most epic battles in the series. This game is a roller-coaster experience; at its peak, it entertained and amazed me, yet at times, its lack of depth dampened my enthusiasm.

A spectacle like Black Myth: Wukong happens once per videogame generation. This epic anthropomorphic adventure of the Monkey King is a true labour of love, that presents grand story, wonderfully authentic soundtrack, addictively punchy combat and does the whole videogame process a bit differently. It is full of surprises, excruciatingly hard bosses and it just simply looks amazing. Few downsides and tiny imperfections can’t really ruin this almost perfect experience, that makes you want to stay for just one more try.

The new DLC is definitely worth checking out if you're a fan of the original game. It brings new ways to have fun on unpaved surfaces in powerful contemporary and historic machines. The game has certainly improved technically in the year since its release. The strong audio, good driving feel and FFB (when playing on a steering wheel) are definitely worth mentioning. Unfortunately, the visuals are getting weaker and the very poorly designed menus slow things down unnecessarily and detract from the overall experience.

Overall, The Lake House is a nice expansion, it doesn't offer much of a story of its own, but it's rich with connections and hints of where Control 2 will go. Ultimately, getting players ready for Control 2 is also the goal of the expansion. Don't expect much else from it.

This game proves that platform jumping doesn't have to look like it's from gaming prehistory, and it's not the prerogative of game heroes, hedgehogs, and bearded plumbers. The struggle for survival in the shadow of angry titans is impressive.

Nikoderiko does things you already know from other games. Only it does them in a worse way. You want a game like that? Play Crash. Play Donkey Kong Country. Play the new Astro Bot, even though it's a different kind of platform game. All of these games are much better and won't frustrate you with stupid bugs or even glitches. If anything stands out here, it's the graphics and the local co-op.

You can spend tens of hours in cold space, but you have to be in the mood and have the time. The game is currently brought to its knees by shallowness and game elements that are not perfected.

I can't say that I didn't enjoy Unknown 9: Awakening. I liked some aspects of it, Haroona is a likeable character and the world manages to intrigue me. But mechanically and technologically, it's a game lost in time. It's as if someone suddenly discovered it in a drawer where it had been lying around since 2007. These days, action-adventure games like this are made better, funnier and more variable.

Fans of Starship Troopers and PvE shootouts should definitely have Extermination in their sights. It offers successful PvE multiplayer, where the piles of dead arachnids that remain there fascinate. However, there could have been more maps and singleplayer is boring and not even Casper Van Dien can save it.

With the arrival of Vessel of Hatred, Diablo IV seems to be a different and even better game than Diablo IV was after its release. While the story content feels underwhelming and short, the expansion shines in its gameplay improvements.The introduction of the new Spiritborn class, offering versatile and customizable play styles, along with the Mercenaries, Kurast Undercity and Dark Citadel enhance the game significantly.

All in all, Super Mario Party Jamboree doesn't really have too many negatives. It's a really fun party collection of mini-games that will appeal to the whole family and a bunch of friends. It offers a great selection of minigames, well-tuned mechanics, dynamic maps and a bunch of side modes as well. The core of the game hasn't really changed, so it kind of feels like an expansion to Super Mario Party.

The low-key project finally got out of the Early Access phase and, as one of the few survivors, made it to a successful conclusion.

Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO is a dream come true for long-time fans who have waited years for a new Budokai Tenkaichi installment. While it doesn't introduce anything groundbreaking, it offers enjoyable gameplay and a massive amount of content that can keep you entertained for dozens of hours. However, the game is not trying to attract new players—it's made strictly for fans and won't have much appeal to others.

Hollowbody is an impressive horror game that reminded me of what I loved and hated about the iconic games of the past. It combines elements of the Resident Evil and Silent Hill series. It is not very extensive, but the story is retold in an interesting way.

From 2K Games, we have a little better basketball here than last time. It brings smoother and more realistic gameplay, but don't expect miracles.

You might have missed this strategy game that pays homage to classic RTS, but if you pay attention, you'll find that it's quite fun to launch destructive missiles in it.

It was supposed to become a star and an iconic game, and it may have convinced someone of that. But certainly not all. Many expected more. The Developers failed to elevate any aspect of this game to anything more than very mediocre.

Overall, Until Dawn remaster is a nice atmospheric slasher horror, well complemented by plenty of choices that can motivate you to play the game again. Although it is a walking simulator genre, it stands out in comparison to most similar titles with its cast and more cinematic style.

NHL 25 plays better than the last few games in the series, but it doesn't bring any real changes, improvements or new features. In the end, it's just an overpriced update.

A scary good remake of a classic horror is chilling. A town immersed in the fog has terrifying surprises for you, which will haunt you. The game looks modern and at the same time retains the essence of the original.

Overall, Shattered Space is a decent expansion that introduces a deep story along with a dark planet featuring larger quests and new enemies. While it's enjoyable, it doesn’t bring anything groundbreaking and feels more like an additional dose of the familiar rather than offering something truly new to the game.

Epic Mickey: Rebrushed is a unique blend of 3D platforming action-adventure for the whole family with Warren Spector's intelligent design that can easily last 15-20 hours. Or even more. It's a very good game, but some aspects of it haven't aged the best.

As a Hacker, you try to solve a problem with a defective AI in a large complex and you will enjoy playing with robotic enemies.

If you want something with the style and quality of the Commandos tactical series, you've just come across the perfect candidate. A dedicated team is just waiting for your instructions.

The base of the PC port is good, there is good performance, although there are more various minor problems in various areas. Basically, if you enjoyed the first game with Kratos and want more from this world, don't miss the second one.

EA Sports FC 25 builds on the great technological innovations of last year's edition and takes them a little further, making football more realistic and tactical. And you have much more and better control over it all. However, the game doesn't offer any major innovations to convince you that this is the edition you need to pick up.

Logistics through train transport has its own romantic charm and Train Valley World takes us back in time. If you like trains, definitely give it a try.

If a goat can run wild in a small town, why can't a squirrel? In the role of a small rodent, you will experience action, jumping and sometimes you have to think. Although the play area is small, it offers a variety of fun activities.
