    The Narco Road DLC barely has anything to do with the main storyline of Ghost Recon: Wildlands. It feels like Ubisoft was obligated to make this DLC because they decided to have a season pass. This is not what the fan of Ghost Recon Wildlands was expecting.

    Valhalla Hills has the potential to be a great game, but lacks the right connections between the main points. It's too easy, and lacks in story.

    The final DLC for Ghost Recon Wildlands gives players a bigger challenge with stronger and more advanced enemies, while the rest of the core mainly stays the same. Die hard fans are going to enjoy this one, but overall Fallen Ghosts does nothing special.

    Pharaonic takes elements from Dark Souls and challenges us with them. The difficulty of the game is insane and every wrong move gets punished. The graphic side of the game is cartoony and nice, but it has some flaws. If you like a challenge, play this.

    Let's Sing 2018 offers a variation of nice modes and 30 pop songs. But the library is not expandable. And that makes the game a little short. Next to that the microphones are wired, which makes no sense for a wireless console.

    With an obvious cliffhanger, the last episode of Telltale Batman Season 2 has ended. Throughout the episode we can see the relation between The Joker and Batman. Their different morals collide as you choose the answers for a spectacular ending.

    Shadow of War Definitive Edition is the complete package of a great game. You get to hunt orcs and take over enemy armies. Ultimately this is a hack and slash game, but the RPG elements and stealth gameplay give it a nice twist. Slaying orcs was never so complete.

    Bad Dream Fever isn't for everyone. Sometimes it's not clear what you're supposed to do which means your full attention is required. That isn't hard though, because the story is interesting and you can play through it in a small amount of time.

    Destiny 2's Black Armory DLC finally adds matchmaking, but its repetitive missions and bland gear show that it has little else to offer.

    Shadow Heritage continues the style set by the first episode, with a new Order to hunt down, a continued story with Darius and his son/daughter and new goodies te play with. The new Order isn't as intimidating however and the story-area is quite small.

    Kingdom Hearts: The Story So Far bundles almost the entire story. Not every game is playable, some stories are added as a movie. Still there is a huge amount of gameplay for a very little price. The strangest thing is that this is a PS4 exclusive.

    The first Smash Ultimate DLC delivers a great fighter with Persona 5’s Joker. His fighting is balanced well even though he’s pretty bad in the air. Luckily Arcane has his back and that’s just one example of the great fanservice this DLC has to offer.

    Purple Chicken Spaceman is a difficult but hilarious ID@XBOX game from Holmade Games. The challenge is to survive all of the levels. The soundtrack will keep you laughing, and the levels keep upping the challenge. It's just great.

    Bird Game + is a short but charming adventure. Strangely, alle achievements can be unlocked before beating the game, but that's no reason not to pick this one up.

    Deponia lets you point and click through a great and hilarious adventure. The game tells a nice story and gives you challenging puzzles. The hand-drawn environments are fantastic and the characters colourful. It's a must play for every puzzler.

    Hamsterdam Paws of Justice is a fun, colorful brawler for your mobile device, but there is one major issue with the game: its repetition. After about fifteen minutes, you're quite done with the game for a while.

    Zombieland Double Tap was a great movie. The game with the subtitle Roadtrip is not so great. Its upsides are the co-op for four players and it's short levels. Unfortunately, there are a lot of downsides. The game is way too short and doesn't always save your progress. Next to that the game never gets really interesting. This could be much better.

    A game that pulls out all the stops to provide perfect competition against the big titles, just by being completely different. Nowadays, games just want to improve, look more realistic, have a lifelike appearance or a completely unique style. The arrival of this classic to the Nintendo Switch has once again proved that not everything is about beautiful looks.

    Glass Masquerade 2: Illusions is beautifully crafted and brings hours of puzzling fun for those times you're fed up with killing and shooting. The difficulty is adequate and can be raised for the die-hard puzzlers. The resulting glass-in-lead windows are a sight. Sadly, the music is not diverse enough to keep entertaining and repeats often. Puzzlers don't have that much choice, but won't be disappointed by Glass Masquerade 2.

    The charm of the game, however, is really in the solo experience and the main gameplay. All those mini-games are not interesting enough to invite your friends especially and have fun together for an entire afternoon.

    With this first set of DLC Rebellion kicks off the Season Pass in a stylish way. New characters, new weapons and a free new Horde map to enjoy. The most important thing is off course the new Story mission Terror Lab. It offers everything fans could hope for en sets the bar high for things to come. Still, the pack is nog flawless. The Horde map is an existing map and the Sailor doesn't add up to the other characters.

    DCL - Drone Champions League is a fun game to explore the workings of drone racing. The game offers a very good simulation but lacks a lot when it comes to being a game. There are but few modes and no unlockables. The sound of the drones start to annoy after a while and the soundtrack is not that good. Still, if you belong to the group of people that love drones, this is the game for you.

    A decent story based on a strong background, which lingers too long explaining and then rushing too fast to a satisfactory end. There are some minor technical issues but nothing too serious. It's relatively short story offers enough choices and side stories to allow several replays.

    The Cadence of Hyrule Character Pack adds some fun replayability to the game. Especially Freddy is a really cool addition, and Impala is pretty slick as well. On the other hand, Shadow Link and Shadow Zelda are really disappointing. The differences between them and their counterparts are so minor, they're barely noticeable. And Aria is only fun for hardcore players, which doesn't quite suit the people this game was initially aimed at. This pack isn't enough to justify the Season Pass.

    After a great start where the setting of the Ronan Twins and the tragedy at home is depicted, Episode two isn't able to live up to the expectations. gameplay consists mostly of doing some chores and even a scene at a police station that should have been thrilling comes down to doing more chores. If you expected Tell Me Why to pick up speed, you'll be disappointed. All in all, not a very good follow-up episode.

    The Journey to Batuu expansion for The Sims 4 is basically a holiday trip to Disney Park's Galaxy's Edge area. It boasts a good selection of clothings, building blocks and accessories, and the Star Wars themed Batuu area to visit. The expansion is quite limited. Not many buildings can be entered, and any action outside the Batuu area is provided 'choose your adventure' style. Most importantly, it proves The Sims is not suitable for story driven gameplay.

    These two classics in their genre haven't aged that well. While Praetorians seems to fit better to the consoles, Commandos has been poorly adapted to the usage of a controller. Both games show their age, and especially in the case of Commandos, better versions are available.

    Werewolf the Apocalypse Earthblood offers an intense combat scheme, but this is incorporated in a really simple game. The story is not interesting at all and you keep doing the same things the whole time you are playing. The only really cool thing to do is, wrecking everyone and everything as a werewolf. Because of this, the game keeps up its chin and stays a mediocre title to play.

    Wavelengths plays it safe, which is a shame. Fortunately, this DLC is a ton of fun thanks to the deeper characterization of one of True Colors' best characters. Steph is a ton of fun to play as and the story is actually quite meaty.

    If you're looking for a fun and easy game to play with the whole family, you're in for a treat. The game is very short however and has nothing to do with the movies you know the Addams Family from.
