Every level offers a new challenge, and just when you think you've got the hang of everything, QUBE 2 will throw something new at you.
The Mad Ones raises a lot of questions and leaves us on a heck of a cliffhanger, but even without that, it sets up an exciting enough premise to leave me on tenterhooks for the next episode. I can't wait to see what else Big Bad Wolf has up its sleeve.
Roughly a four-hour experience, Legendary Gary is a strange game to sum up, but one that's totally worth your time. Unlike anything I've ever played before, its unique mixture of fantasy and reality makes for a thought-provoking, sometimes uncomfortable, sometimes funny journey that often touches too close to home.
Sure, it's beautiful — and after the end credits have rolled and you're free to explore the world, bereft of annoying puzzles, there's beauty and secrets to be found at every corner — but as an overall experience the unnecessarily obtuse world design and repetitiveness makes Fe stand out only for its frustrations, not its successes.
As a standalone episode, Hell is Empty doesn't quite hit the same spot that the previous two episodes reached — but that's not to say it's a let down.
It's wholesome, harmless fun — it's just a shame there isn't more of it.
While visual novels aren't for everyone, Purrfect Date's gorgeous presentation and captivating yet simply delivered plot makes it a great primer for anyone not all that used to the format.
It takes someone quite extraordinary to see the world in such a way to connect images like Roberts does in Gorogoa, and for that alone I'm glad I've been privy to it. It'll stick with me as a piece of art to admire, but not as a video game to enjoy.
At its heart, A Hat in Time is a lovely platformer that wants to be a joy to play, but its technical shortcomings are far too big to ignore.
Don't pick up the game expecting a AAA quality adventure; you're not going to get it. But if you can overlook its tatty edges, Black Mirror comes equipped with an intriguing narrative, excellent atmosphere and solid gameplay that'll keep you interested from start to finish. And let's not forget those Scottish accents.
It's a game worth playing for the story and setting, but not for the detective work involved.
If you've never played The Sims before, the console version isn't a great starting place, but if you're already a convert, then it's a must-have in your collection.
It's cute, well-made and fun to play.
I'd go as far to say that Rush: A Disney-Pixar Adventure is one of the better Disney games of recent years – Infinity aside. The recreations of the Pixar franchises are just beautiful, and although each level may be short, they're all certainly sweet. I'd highly recommend it for younger players, and if you're a Pixar fan, regardless of your age, it's a no-brainer.
Jackbox Party Pack 4 isn't completely disappointing – there's still enough here to warrant a few giggles and it'll pass an hour or two with a few friends, but it's not the best that Jackbox has to offer. Go for Party Pack 2 or 3 instead.
It's another fantastically told tale of teenage drama, family and friendship, and developer Deck Nine has once again proved itself worthy of delivering a package that more than lives up to Dontnod's original vision.
Airship Syndicate has almost created something very special with Battle Chasers: Nightwar's overall package. But those difficulty spikes are just too unforgiving, and there's only so many times you can be completely obliterated by the same set of enemies before you have to throw in the towel.
It's a LEGO game alright, and these small but meaningful changes make it one of the better titles in the collection. Even if the Ninjago franchise doesn't interest you as much as Batman or Marvel Superheroes might, the gameplay and signature LEGO humour makes The LEGO Ninjago Movie Videogame well worth jumping into.
If you didn't like the gameplay loop of Steamworld Dig, then there are probably not enough changes here to massively alter your opinion. But for those of us who did enjoy it, then Steamworld Dig 2 will happily suck us right back in, the refinements made creating the perfect balance between familiarity and freshness.
It's the perfect pick-up-and-play game, and the Switch's portable nature means Conga Master Party is right at home.
