Great adventure game which doesn't have some kind of outstanding plot, but keeps you engaged because of how smartly the elements of the world are connected. One of this year's best indie games.

A fun mix of strategy and puzzle game which isn't really that different from it's predecessor. Multiplayer mode is a nice addition, but because of some irritating design choices it's hard to recommend The Escapists 2 to friends, although they could make the gameplay more engaging.

If Yakuza 0 didn't exist, we would probably rate Yakuza Kiwami higher. But we're in kind of strange situation right now: before playing Kiwami, you should finish the prequel, but because of that you will be left with a game of smaller scale and a bit worse quality.

A generic RTS about WWII which will be more engaging for those who prefer to play slowly and use every little opportunity to succeed. Three campaigns could be fun for two evenings, but after that you'll hardly think about returning to Sudden Strike 4 ever again.

You'll definitely want to return to Agents of Mayhem again and again. Games' shortcomings will become irrelevant as soon as you start a new mission, pick your favorite agents from the diverse roster and have a lot of fun.

Stylish and fascinating 3D-platformer which will make you die and swear a lot because of your own mistakes. But you won't ever feel bored.

Fun stealth puzzle game with some great ideas and a really good execution. More dangerous enemies appear during last few missions, but Cleaner doesn't gain any new abilities, so the game may feel a little bit tedious near the end.

You'd be better off with Toybox Turbos from the same studio. It offers much more content and isn't filled with product placement. Forget about this strange Overwatch-on-wheels clone until devs decide to fix it.

Housemarque proved once again that they are great at making arcade shooters. Nex Machina is such a great successor to Resogun that it's hard to put it aside – certainly not before you get all the achievements.

Fans of ICO and Journey, rejoice! RiME, as expected, is a great addition to the list of amazing story-driven platformers. But if you want full experience, avoid spoilers on the Internet at all costs.

Parade of new tricks, great loot system, huge attention to detail and engaging Multiverse mode are the reasons why you want to come back to Injustice 2, again and again. Everything here was made with huge love to DC comics (and probably with huge budget too). This fighting game is great for everyone: for newcomers who never ever heard about comic books, for DC enthusiasts, and for fans of the genre.

Prey feels like a 'Greatest Hits' collection of various artists' songs. It offers almost nothing new, some tracks you won't ever listen to, but every other song sounds great and brings positive emotions. Prey isn't perfect, but overall it's a good game, and hopefully its shortcomings will be fixed in the next Arkane's release.

It's been 13 years since the release of Syberia 2, but third chapter doesn't look like something Sokal was thinking about all this time, hoping to create a truly special and memorable game. No matter how hard you try to hint at one more game in the series, even nostalgic fans won't be waiting for it after what they saw in Syberia 3.

What Remains of Edith Finch proves once again how unique a storytelling in videogames can be. It's a short but incredible experience which brings out a lot of emotions. It pushes the genre forward and kind of makes the term 'walking simulator' nonsensical and meaningless. Don't deny yourself the walkthrough, you won't regret it.

Great ingenious puzzle game with some minor flaws. Stylish, intriguing and not too easy — exactly what you can expect from a game of this sort.

Fans of Limbo and Inside should definitely check out Little Nightmares. It's a big step forward for 2D-horrors and dark platformers, and this game will definitely inspire independent developers in the future if they decide to create something similar. Playdead's Inside raised the bar sky high, but Tarsier achieved almost similar results and brought plenty of fresh ideas to the table.

Old fashioned but not outdated adventure with cute characters and lots of fun puzzles. Unfortunately, issues with the camera prevent it from being great.

Not the worst FlatOut game but “4” in the title doesn't mean anything — you won't see much difference between this and FlatOut 2. But it's much better than awful FlatOut 3, although, to be honest, it wasn't that difficult to do.

One of the best PlatinumGames' releases. Engaging and unforgettable action-RPG which flawlessly blends genres and constantly surprises. It's difficult not to be amazed — even after five main endings you'll probably want to come back to this strange, crazy and unique world.
