The Blind Prophet manages to create a thrilling and unique experience with the idea of using comic book imagery in a story that one might not find in other titles. Undoubtedly, choosing a stronger storyline along with enhancing the quality of the puzzles would lead to a much better game.

Journey To The Savage Planet is undoubtedly one of the highlights of this year's adventure that manages to create a fun and memorable experience with its superb artistic design and entertaining gameplay. If surfing the amazing planet was accompanied by a more captivating story, the end result could have been even better.

Rain of Reflections: Chapter 1 engages us in successful gameplay by mixing up adventure and turn-based strategy genres. However, the vague story and the poor characterization prevent it from being a quite memorable experience

5 / 10.0 - The Executioner
Oct 2, 2019

The Executioner tries to engage you in a shocking story but the final product can be barely called a game. The time spent on reading an endless text is much more than the time you really play the game. Besides, the few gameplay elements are shallow and buggy.

6 / 10.0 - Telling Lies
Sep 6, 2019

There are two things in Telling Lies encouraging you to continue searching and watching all videos: great performance of actors and finding the truth. However, some weird gameplay mechanisms and story's plot holes keep annoying you from start to finish. And when the game finally ends, you probably start asking some serious questions about the whole story and the logic behind it

7 / 10.0 - Dry Drowning
Aug 14, 2019

Dry Drowning offers an engaging story that keeps its quality in almost every game moments. The hard decisions and dilemmas also add more spice to the experience. However, when it comes to some of the gameplay mechanisms such as the Living Nightmare system, the game is not quite satisfying.

5.5 / 10.0 - Steel Division 2
Jul 7, 2019

Steel Division II comes up with some great ideas like Army General and tries to keep you amused with massive tactical battles. However, the lack of a comprehensive tutorial, some annoying gameplay mechanisms, and technical issues ruin most of the good ideas in practice.

6 / 10.0 - Rainswept
Mar 10, 2019

Rainswept has a good beginning, and is successful in introducing it characters and their stories. However, the flaws in storytelling and gameplay waste this beginning and prevent the game from reaching an acceptable level.

7 / 10.0 - Bury me, my Love
Jan 27, 2019

Bury me, my Love has to sides. One side is an amazing story with lovely characters and many possible choices leading to different chains of events and different endings. The other side is a boring gameplay that just allows gamers to choose the text messages and see the consequences.

Return of the Obra Dinn proves that there are still untouched ideas in the gaming world, and it is possible to create a game that is completely new. The game combines the power of its 1-bit graphic, impressive storytelling, and unique gameplay to make on the best detective and puzzle solving experiences for the gamers. I only hope to see the next Lucas Pope's game soon.

8 / 10.0 - Battlefield V
Dec 6, 2018

Battlefield V presents one of the most engaging multiplier experiences of the year. The battles are insane and the game world is dynamic. Everything in the game including destructions, fortifications, playable modes, and classes works perfectly. However, some of the major problems such as bad Story mode and huge number of bugs prevent BFV from becoming a masterpiece.

5 / 10.0 - Transference
Oct 9, 2018

Transference fails in both storytelling and creating an engaging gameplay. The story is extremely vague and unclear, and the ending is confusing. On the other hand, the puzzles are easy and not that much fun. I can only hope the next cooperation between Ubisoft and a film production company leads to a much better game.

Warhammer 40,000: Gladius – Relics of War tries to be an entertaining, challenging, and different 4X strategy. It has almost achieved this goal. Nevertheless, the lack of politics, economics, alliance, and other 4X features are some drawbacks causing the game to become repetitive after a while

8 / 10.0 - Surviving Mars
May 5, 2018

Surviving Mars is one of that games which can entertain you for weeks and even months. Even though it suffers from some serious problems like lack of a training section, nobody can deny the pleasure of making an advanced colony on the surface of the red planet during experiencing the game.

The Raven Remastered is successful in telling a strong story with a lot of surprises. It raises many questions in your mind, and keeps you playing until finding all the answers. However, the bugs and some other problems prevent us calling it a great game.

It is clear that after Rise and Fall expansion, Civilization VI is now a better game. Most of the new introduced mechanisms are interesting and potentially revolutionary. However, in the existing implementation, their influence on gameplay is limited and insufficient. I hope that developers finally have success in conveying the real feeling of civilization's rise and fall in upcoming expansions or versions

5 / 10.0 - The Station
Mar 3, 2018

The Station is disappointing. It is not successful in storytelling, creating an engaging atmosphere, and even introducing the characters. Maybe the puzzles are only enjoyable parts but unfortunately you cannot find many of them in the game. The Station is not one of that games that many gamers will remember at the end of the year.

The Fall Part 2: Unbound takes advantage of a strong and engaging story with some lovely characters. However, it inherits most of the disadvantages of the first part. Solving puzzles are still frustrating and combats are mostly repetitive. Despite these major problems, I am still eager to follow Arid's story in the final part.

9 / 10.0 - Subnautica
Feb 5, 2018

Without any doubt, Subnautica is one the best existing games in survival genre; a game whose developers leave you alone in the center of an endless ocean to struggle for surviving, uncovering secrets, and finally finding a way to escape. After releasing of Subnautica, the survival genre lovers do not need any other game for a long time.
