There are hints of what Traveller's Tales is capable of – a gorgeous open world that's a pleasure to explore, for example – but with the same old level system and old-fashioned combat that desperately needs to be revitalised, LEGO DC Super-Villains feels too stuck in the past to be worth recommending over any other LEGO game.

Although perhaps because of this, succeeding in Project Highrise feels like even more of an achievement, because you've done it yourself.

While it's a departure from some of the Jackbox classics – Fibbage, Quiplash, Drawful – it's a fantastic and inventive range of new titles, all rounded off with another solid entry of the much-loved You Don't Know Jack.

But at best, it's a solid entry into a rather stagnant kart racing genre. It may be lacking a bit of personality and polish, but zooming around the track as Tommy Pickles or Patrick Star is a lot of fun. And, Mario Kart aside, it's probably the best karting game we've seen so far this generation.

With a gorgeous visual design – even on Nintendo Switch, it's a striking-looking game – an enjoyable gameplay loop, fantastic audio design, and a lively cast of characters, there's plenty to like in Starlink: Battle for Atlas. It's a game I can see myself coming back to for a long time yet.

It won't keep you hooked forever, but thanks to its gorgeous art style, witty writing and lovable monsters, it will keep you entertained for a while.

7 / 10.0 - Crayola Scoot
Oct 15, 2018

Crayola Scoot might not quite fill the void for a good Tony Hawk successor, but it'll at least provide a bit of entertainment in the meantime.

Ultimately, for anyone who hasn't yet experienced Scribblenauts, the Scribblenauts Mega Pack is without a doubt the best way to do so.

As much as I've enjoyed playing The Serpent's Curse again, it's high time George and Nico had a new adventure.

7 / 10.0 - Donut County
Sep 13, 2018

Enter Donut County expecting a very short experience, and you'll enjoy every minute. Just prepare to want more of its sugar-coated goodness when you've finished.

8 / 10.0 - Planet Alpha

It doesn't have the best platforming you've ever experienced. Nor does it have the best puzzles. But what's perfectly adequate, when coupled with those visuals, ends up being something quite special.

9 / 10.0 - Strange Brigade

As far as third-person shooters go, Strange Brigade is up there with the best of them.

It's a respectable addition to the shmup genre, and if you have yet to give it a go, Defenders of Ekron: Definitive Edition is definitely the way to go.

7 / 10.0 - Tetra's Escape
Aug 16, 2018

If you want something that's fun to quickly dip into, and offers a brain-teasing challenge perhaps while something more meaty installs on your hard drive, Tetra's Escape should fit the bill nicely. It's a fun twist on other block-based puzzle games, and enough new mechanics are introduced at a regular pace that it never gets stale.

With all that said though, The Council: Episode 3 – Ripples offers another fascinating look into this alternative history 18th century.

If you're looking for something a little more laid-back that's likely to put a smile on your face, then you can't go far wrong with Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion.

Don't get me wrong – LEGO The Incredibles is fun. It's just as entertaining as any other LEGO game. But that's the problem. It doesn't stand out in any way.

Thankfully though, Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?!'s charm and sense of humour helps give the game more longevity than its gameplay loop alone.
