I write about games. When I'm not writing about them, I'm probably playing them. And when I'm not playing them, I'm making them.

Expansions and expenses aside, LEGO Dimensions is a blast to play. When you're not running around your favorite worlds or basking in nostalgia, don't be surprised if you find yourself smiling and laughing.

While some of the games may have got lost or muddled in transition, the Jackbox Party Pack 2 is just as fun as ever. Just make sure you have some friends to play with.

As clever as it is charming, Human Resource Machine is a must-have for anyone interested in puzzles and programming.

The wait might have been long, but Yoshi's Woolly World arrives just in time to satisfy your desire for a new platformer. And it's charming and cute to boot.

There's plenty of good times and fun to be had with Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash, but it's all bogged down by a restrictive and archaic level selection system.

Fans, rejoice! Star Wars Battlefront might not be the most in-depth shooter, but its certainly the best Star Wars game in years.

Yo-Kai watch might seem like another Pokemon clone, but it's anything but. Don't be fooled by its kid-friendly nature; it's chamring, endearing, and one of the best 3DS games of the year.

It's depressing and filled with tough decisions to make, but This War of Mine The Little Ones is one of those games that you have to play.

The Witness is not only a masterpiece of game design, but one that truly inspires and amazes, without relying on traditional tutorials or restrictive hand-holding. It's one of the few games that truly respects the intelligence of those playing, rather than guiding them through each and every step.

Assuming you have the hardware to back it up, Rise of the Tomb Raider on PC is hands down the version to own.

Technical issues aside, XCOM 2 stands as an outstanding sequel to an already amazing strategy game.

Baba Yaga: The Temple of the Witch is a great reason to return to Rise of the Tomb Raider, assuming you can look past its short playtime.

Pixel Piracy has a lot of untapped potential, but it's bogged down by shoddy AI and bugs, and a detrimental lack of in-game guidance.

Gears of War: Ultimate Edition is just as enjoyable on PC as it was on Xbox One, though performance issues and customization issues get in the way of the improved graphical fidelity.

With few stealth games on the market, République makes a strong impression, thanks to its carefully crafted narrative and world.

If you're a fan of its anime art or simple tower defense mechanics, Aegis of Earth: Protonovus Assault might be worth your time, but it doesn't exactly have any major selling points.

Cold Darkness Awakened has one or two noteworthy moments, but its very short run time doesn't justify its existence.

While a touch-focused first person dungeon crawler might sound crazy on paper, Severed's unique brand of combat is as deep as it is engaging. Oh, and the visuals and soundtrack are bonkers to boot.

Homefront: The Revolution has plenty of potential with its unique setting and premise, but its completely let down by dated design, unengaging combat, a boring story, and performance problems to boot.

With its laid-back approach to platforming, and excellent use of color and sound, you'd be hard pressed to find a game as charming and endearing as TurnOn.
