    BUTCHER is a fast-paced, bloody shootfest which gives you a run for your money. You die easily but keep playing because the game is so much fun. A must-buy for those who like a challenge.

    After years of absence, Halo is back. And how. With a thrilling campaign, 343 Industries captures that feeling of old-school Halo, whilst adding to the formula. The new open-world structure is a lighter version of what we know from the genre, but the addicting gameplay makes the whole experience feel truly remarkable. And that feeling extends to the multiplayer. There are some technical points that do need some refinement, but overall Halo Infinite is a solid new entry in the iconic franchise.

    Behind the amazing art style of Leo's Fortune, there is a surprisingly fun hidden platformer that controls amazingly well on a touch device. The game never gets really hard, but gives you enough challenge to keep you hooked for hours.

    Watch Dogs is a great traditional sandbox game that focuses on adding to the genre rather than reinventing it. The formulaic gameplay lacks variety, but Watch Dogs makes up for it due to its high quality and incredible depth.

    We sure hope Epic Games will continue to develop more singleplayer DLC for Gears of War 3, because RAAM's Shadow was an absolute blast. It is everything that the Gears of War singleplayer fan could hope for. It's unfortunate you will see the credits in less than four hours, but the high replayability makes up for that.

    Man of Medan is the first of The Dark Pictures. The game has all the elements of horror to keep you up at night. Still there are some flaws in the acting, but nothing serious. IF you want to get scared of a game, this is a must buy.

    Resident Evil Revelations 2 is absolutely great. The Raid Mode is very addictive, and the Episodes offer a compelling story. Some minor graphics flaws and simple enemies only seem to improve this nostalgic experience.

    CounterSpy is an interesting stealth-game, with a mix between 2D- and 3D-gameplay. The graphical style and music top this amazing, little game off.

    Its overwhelming atmosphere and experience make FIFA 15 one of the best sports games in recent years. Hundreds of new animations emphasize the progress EA Sports made with FIFA 15. After the somewhat disappointing edition last year, the team strikes back with an amazing footie that every self-respecting soccer fan should buy.

    The games are diverse and the package offers both well-known games and surprises. The design and accessibility are fine as well. With this package it is no longer necessary to drag the whole game box with you on Holiday. Instead, bring your Switch.

    The Evil Within 2 is a solid survival-horror game. It scares you and keeps you tense at all times. Despite the minor flaws you will be enjoying a 15 hours game full of sick, twisted, bloody and scary events, which will haunt you for days. A must buy.

    This add-on for the already great Snipperclips makes the game even better for a mild price. There is a ton of new content and the game is playable by four players at once now. This makes Snipperclips almost like the ultimate party game on the Switch.

    Desperados 3 brings a compelling Wild West story telling the origins of John Cooper and his gang. Each mission is brimming with life and atmosphere and offers a real challenge. With up to six characters, each with their own abilities, there are many different styles of play possible. The game is certainly challenging but offers a lot of replayability and value for money.
