10 / 10.0 - Astro Bot
Sep 21, 2024

A stunning 3D platformer in the spirit of the best Nintendo games. It turned out that the success of Astro's Playroom was not an accident - these developers really know how to create such games and why the audience loves them.

A bog standard racing game that borrowed a lot from its competitors and offered nothing new. And it's always-online, too. Not a complete wreck, but we expected something much better.

Not a typical game for the Star Wars franchise or Ubisoft. There are some interesting ideas in it, but not all of them were implemented well. Still, for the most part, the game turned out to be quite fun, and Ubisoft will not be embarrassed by it. Even though some of us had hoped for more.

An action game with a structure similar to Jedi: Fallen Order, spectacular setpieces similar to modern God of War and a difficulty similar to soulslike games. A fantastic adventure with minor annoyances, and one of the best games of the year.

7 / 10.0 - Creatures of Ava
Aug 25, 2024

A nice adventure with a good premise, but kind of a monotonous gameplay.

6 / 10.0 - Deathbound
Aug 24, 2024

A unique soulslike that offers to play not as one character, but as several at once. Unfortunately, the quality of execution of many of its components leaves much to be desired.

8 / 10.0 - World of Goo 2
Aug 10, 2024

A wonderful return of a fan-favorite puzzle game. It won't be as influential as was the first World of Goo but it's nostalgic and fun.

7 / 10.0 - Magical Delicacy
Aug 3, 2024

A nice game about cooking, magic and managing your store. Gameplay-wise it has some issues, but almost all of them are fixable with updates.

Another soulslike, in which it is difficult for great ideas to open up due to a mediocre plot, not the best combat system and boring rewards for exploring the world.

A fun action adventure game with a cool combat system and cute characters. Just do not quit the game immediately because of episodes with TVs. After the first chapter they get better and the combat system becomes much deeper, therefore there appears a desire to collect characters and upgrade them.

7 / 10.0 - Frogun Encore
Jul 7, 2024

A nice 3D platformer - nothing outstanding or even original, but the evening you spend with it will not be the worst. It's a shame that the fixed camera spoils the impression.

A very pretty walking simulator with disappointingly shallow gameplay and no attempts to innovate.

7 / 10.0 - XDefiant
Jun 15, 2024

A competent shooter in which not all ideas seem to be successfully implemented. But the foundation turned out to be very decent, and it is interesting see how the game will be supported in the future.

7 / 10.0 - Capes
Jun 8, 2024

A fun turn-based tactics game about superheroes. It's not as beautiful as Midnight Suns, and its characters aren't as likable. But tons of puzzle-like levels where you are supposed to effectively use your team's strengths are very engaging.

8 / 10.0 - Hauntii
Jun 2, 2024

A wonderful adventure inspired by 3D Super Mario games. It's full of secrets which are well hidden and are meant to be discovered without any help. And it looks gorgeous too.

A disappointing follow up where everything is the same as it was in Hellblade I or worse. Except for visuals, they look truly marvelous. If only everything else received the same treatment.

A fantastic metroidvania that will be remembered for a very long time due to its originality and the amount of mystery it contains.

8.5 / 10.0 - Stellar Blade
May 5, 2024

Most of all, Stellar Blade surprises with the fact that it is the debut console project for the Shift Up studio. It looks and plays as if it was done by professionals with many years of experience. If they pay more attention to the plot and characters in the next projects, there will be nothing to complain about at all.

A fun and pretty puzzle game. Not among the best ones in this genre, but still well worth of your time.

9 / 10.0 - Harold Halibut
Apr 15, 2024

A wonderful claymation adventure with an exciting plot that's not supposed to be played if you are in a hurry. It's slow and a bit lengthy, but every minute spent in it is worth it in the end.
