The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners – Chapter 2: Retribution isn't a bad game, but it's still a bit disappointing. Instead of a true sequel, we got a bloated expansion that loses the sense of improvements and progression. It's like you're just playing a new story in an old game. Plus, it doesn't help that a stereotype creeps in over time.

If you are fans of old-school gameplay, tactical combat and lengthy dialogues, you will enjoy Tactics Ogre like other players 25 years ago. But this time with some improvements, on various platforms and for price around 50 EUR.

Dead Island 2 departs from the original setting of an island and takes place in a zombie-infested Los Angeles. The game now offers a semi-open world, featuring satisfying combat mechanics, a vast array of upgradable weapons, and intense battles against hordes of zombies.

Big thanks to the authors for choosing WW1 which is unique in this genre. The campaign is a bit clunky, but the combat is unique and contains unusual elements and mechanics that you don't normally see in other RTS.

Purely block-based Minecraft world returns, but with a truly unexpected, sometimes tiny bit shallow, RTS twist. This tactical adventure is bright, saturated, full of fresh ideas and with its PVP/co-op content, crafted especially for you and your fellow builders. It’s time to grab your gaming tools, gather the resources and mount your favourite animal, because this minecart joyride is supposedly only the beginning.

The Dark Pictures: Switchback VR is not a bad game, but it is certainly a disappointment. We expect more from Supermassive. Similarly, we expect more from PSVR 2. The gameplay is too ordinary and schematic, lacking more interesting ideas and features. Although the action is still fun, that is no longer enough.

Tchia certainly wanted to be a bigger, more distinctive game than it is, I have no doubt that it was created with noble motives, but in the end it unfortunately feels like a half-baked advertising game promoting New Caledonia through loving images and excellent music, but with no real sense of enrichment in it.

Octopath Traveler II demands 50-60 hours for eight uneasy stories in a RPG world which doesn’t needs just its saving, but redemption for characters, reaching lifegoal, truth or fulfilling their ambition. Part of originality is gone, but new elements are reliving good formula for veterans and new players too.

Peaky Blinders is certainly one of the more interesting games created directly for VR, although it suffers from the characteristic ills that accompany this sphere. The shorter length can be justified by a fairly solid dynamic story, where you have the impression that for a moment you have entered a film with the usual footage.

Not so mighty after all. A very tired concept did not get a breath of fresh air in this game. Although there are still moments of fun and the action is not the worst, the stereotype can beat all these positive aspects and you will be bored after a few days. But the music is really great.

Like a Dragon: Ishin fulfills the promise: better later than never. It would be pity to miss such different part of series drawing lot of freshness from 19th century and different drama. The familiar faces and combat system is put into the new perspective in attractive environment.

Crime Boss wants to be majestic, but the game doesn't do it very well. It's not exactly bad, but despite all the effort to be pompous, it feels very cheap. The idea is good, but the execution is poor. On the other hand, the game is suitable for beginners in the cooperative action genre.

Ravenbound strives to conquer the gaming skies, but its ambitiously fragile bones break underneath the weight of its own unpolished body. The world is an empty shell which desperately needs the mighty soul of some open world God, that will solve repetitive gameplay, technical issues and fill this husk of a world with some actual content, rather than just endless fighting. Neat ideas are here, and the intriguing genre mixing provides a well-deserved breath of fresh air, that unfortunately gets quickly spoiled by frustrating shortcomings.

Forza Horizon 5: Rally Adventure brings a similar energy to the one that Dirt 2 had in the past. It's all about the atmosphere and pure joy of driving. It proves the timeless fun of the base game, but the length of the main campaign and the variability of the content are its weaker points. In addition, it also brings a lot of great improvements that will be enjoyed not only by expansion players, but also by those playing the base game.

Akka Arrh is a chaotic but addictive space shooter where the player uses a stationary cannon to defend against attacks. The game combines randomness and player skills to create a challenging and rewarding gameplay experience, where the objective is to score as high as possible by creating chain reactions with a single bomb. Fans of retro-style games will enjoy the entertaining and nostalgic experience Akka Arrh offers.

Crazy Rocks developers, under the auspices of a Polish distributor PlayWay, offer a successful probe into the life of a customs officer in a totalitarian state. It's not bad, and in particular, you can only rarely find such content in games.

Mask of the Lunar Eclipse mixes fiction and folklore in a blend that can entertain and frighten even 15 years after its original release. The remaster could have been technically better, but at its core, it's still a good game, of which there are not many on the market today. The biggest problem now is mainly the clumsy and awkward controls.

The new addition to the motocross series from Milestone does not bring anything groundbreaking compared to older games, but it is a little closer to reality.

Tinykins as the name suggests, are not only the tiniest, but also the cutest of useful helpers who will assist the scientist Milodane on his wholesome journey across this typical, insects infested human household. This staple of relaxing game marries addictive gameplay and creative game mechanics with adorable visuals and peaceful soundtrack. This must play hidden gem draws a lot of inspiration from the infamous Pikmin series, but it does this just as gracefully as Milo slides across the many rooms on his dope soapsurf.

The game welcomes you to an interesting world that you will explore on your robot's journey and offers many puzzles. At the same time, puzzles try to compensate for the absence of a deeper story. It doesn't matter more significantly, and if you know what you're getting into, the game won't let you down.

Blood Bowl 3 not only has a relatively modest offer compared to its predecessors, but also minor glitches and doesn't really bring anything that wasn't already in the previous games. That's why it is not very attractive, basically it's useless - at least for now.

The final grade is actually a summary of different perspectives on the game, and I'll use a relatively fresh comparison to help. I consider Resident Evil 4 to be a better game than Dead Space, but that applies to the originals. The new Dead Space is actually a better remake than the new Resident Evil 4. Additionally, it's hard to shake off the feeling that there's missing content in the game. It's as if Capcom didn't learn from the criticism they received with the Resident Evil 3 remake. Despite all that, it's still a very high-quality survival horror.

If you overcome rough presentation, low-res cut-scenes and a bit clunky interface, you can expect very solid plot, excellent characters, party banter, interesting world and intense boss fights. Still, this title is not fully fulfilling remaster promise and many fans expected a bit more.

The theme of rebuilding the country and destroyed cities after the war is relevant at the moment and Madnetic Games did a pretty good job with it. Just don't expect too much.

Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon is different from all previous Bayonetta games and exceeds expectations. It takes the form of a fairy tale book for children and has a similar story. While there is still action, it is more focused on the story and the friendship that forms between the two central characters. Additionally, the game surpasses expectations by offering a surprisingly long story campaign with an expansive world.

Beautifully different action game. It's not perfect and there are some things that could be improved, but you will find original elements and interesting moments that are worth it. It's a shame that the various distractions make the game less enjoyable and can be frustrating. However, if you want an unusual combat and action experience, you will definitely get it here.

The Chant not only fills a current hole in the horror action-adventure genre, but also manages to bring an original take on the genre thanks to the story and themes it opens up. The authors do not want to confirm or refute the effects of esotericism, but point out that in certain cases it is a double-edged sword.

Basically a good, traditional management strategy, with decent community development, but it starts to become stereotyped quite quickly and you can miss some more excitement and gradation. Basically, the threat is negligible, a little skill is enough and everything works without any major problems.
