The choices you make are largely ineffectual to how things actually turn out, but there are a few along the way that will really shock you or make you think
Although light in content and devoid of any real scares, Among the Sleep is a curious little game with a great deal of charm
Whilst many gamers will scoff at Rainbow Six Siege's multiplayer focused offerings – put forth at the same price as more feature rich packages such as Halo 5 – the fact is, its great fun to play
What saves Kung Fu Panda: Showdown of Legendary Legends from being a total catastrophe is the local multiplayer versus mode. When playing against fellow humans – all dealing with the same woeful combat, awkward controls and confusing power-ups – the game can possibly be considered as enjoyable
With its quirky 2D graphics and absorbing physics-based gameplay, you'll spend hours and hours making your way through its 100 levels, eager to get all the cups, just because you know you can
The Primal Carnage series may have had legs for a few years on the PC, where it's secured a small but loyal fan base, but on the PS4, I don't think it will be too long until becomes extinct
It may feel familiar, but it's a warm and welcoming kind of familiar

If you're up for a quirky puzzle adventure title and think you can manage the task, Albedo: Eyes from Outer Space can certainly scratch that itch, but there are much better titles out there that can do the same
Some may find the act of manoeuvring their space-car a little unwieldy – which admittedly, it is – but with all players in the same boat, it's fair, and generally adds to the hilarity of the whole experience
Whilst the combat sounds functional on paper, in reality it is undoubtedly the worst part of Dogchild
With its realistic handling, impressive physics and accurately modelled tracks full of dips, ridges and undulations, Sebastien Loeb Rally Evo demands you to drive sensibly within each car's limits, yet always push yourself to achieve the best time you can
Levels have no checkpoints whatsoever, and when enemies often swarm in around you or suddenly drop in from the ceiling before putting an end your merciless killing spree you can justifiably feel cheated out of your hard-earned progress
Whilst AIPD generally meets all of the criteria for being a great twin-stick shooter… it unfathomably just fails to impress
It's hard to not love Klaus. It's one of those games that sneaks up on you from out of nowhere and puts a big smile on your face because of how surprisingly good it is
Whether it's locally or online, playing in co-op makes Earth Defense Force 4.1 truly shine; its unsophisticated shooter gameplay being perfect for chilling out with a friend on the couch or with up to three allies on the internet
Those interested in Street Fighter 5 should view their purchase as a season pass. At launch, there's the bare minimum amount of content included to enable players to get used to the game's fighting systems, but over the coming months it will grow in features and content to make it a better, more rounded experience, for free
