7 / 10.0 - NBA 2K25
Oct 10, 2024

From 2K Games, we have a little better basketball here than last time. It brings smoother and more realistic gameplay, but don't expect miracles.

7.5 / 10.0 - Tiebreak
Sep 16, 2024

Top Spin from 2k is no longer the only representative of its kind, and the calm surface of tennis waters is about to be disturbed by Tiebreak produced by Big Ant Games. Despite some shortcomings, you will enjoy tennis in the game.

The authors of USC: Counterforce put so much on their shoulders that they visibly ran out of steam in the final sprint, which is why the game looks the way it does. It's a waste of time pretending to be an Aliens - Xcom when everything, including difficulty settings, campaign handling, base building and unit management, feels rushed and unfinished.

One of the best urban strategies comes from Slovakia, and in addition to its complexity, it also impresses with its setting in the period of socialism. This leitmotif will not bother you, even if this time does not mean anything to you, and when you have experienced it yourself for at least a moment, it will be all the more interesting for you.

8 / 10.0 - Unicorn Overlord
May 16, 2024

Although the non-standard strategy draws inspiration from Heroes Of Might and Magic, it does it in its own way. Despite the fact that the basic idea is very similar, the final product is different, but still entertaining.

In the case of Classified, we are not talking about a brilliant, innovative concept of the genre of turn-based strategies, but rather about a solid use of already used and well-known mechanics and tools. Overall, the word "solid" describes the game perfectly.

The successful Heroes of Might and Magic clone adds a hell of a lot of extra content in the new DLC for a good price. One more move and he's really going to sleep.

An unusual strategy with roguelike elements, excellent processing and addictive gameplay will definitely keep you entertained, and thanks to randomly generated content, it will definitely last a long time.

Form clearly outweighed content. The game is good to look at, but unfortunately that's about it. The shallow combat system, slow pace of battles, samey maps and overall flatness of the gameplay mean yet another addition to the family of failed RTS strategies.

8.5 / 10.0 - Endless Dungeon
Oct 31, 2023

A really excellent mix of different genres. It does not bring anything fundamentally innovative, but what it does, it does well. It borrows the best elements of roguelike top down actions, tower defense games and MOBA strategies and combines them into an excellent game, which you will enjoy best with live teammates in cooperation.

7.5 / 10.0 - Total War: PHARAOH
Oct 12, 2023

Placing the next Total War game in Egypt was probably not the best decision. The Bronze Age simply tied the creators' hands too much, and you can see it especially during the fights. A small variety of units and battles that lack real juice drag the rating down. On the contrary, dynasty management is fun and last a long time.

6.5 / 10.0 - NBA 2K24
Oct 3, 2023

After Michael Jordan, the main character of the current NBA season is Kobe Bryant. But if you want more changes in game, you will be disappointed. And the fun is still spoiled by microtransactions.

8 / 10.0 - Under the Waves
Sep 7, 2023

There are three types of people. The living, the dead, and those at sea. Under The Waves is a non-standard philosophical game where you think about this statement. It mainly focuses on the effect from the emotional experience.

8.5 / 10.0 - Dave the Diver
Jul 21, 2023

Games are often referred to as mixing the right ingredients and mixing the best recipe. But in the case of Dave the diver, the ingredients and recipes on the plate are the most important thing, not metaphorically, but completely practically. And the resulting food tastes so good that you will lick your fingers.

7.5 / 10.0 - NBA 2K23
Oct 4, 2022

When we throw all the listed elements into a pot and mix them, we get an excellent playable basketball, which is great to watch and you will enjoy every single virtual game. But we already feel the stagnation in the series and the technical shortcomings do not help either.

Next arcade basketball with crazy gameplay. Playgrounds 2 is more fun than first game and good choice for LAN party.

7.5 / 10.0 - NBA 2K19
Oct 19, 2018

NBA with LeBron James looks promising, but it is just another year without bigger inovations and with almost same gameplay as 2K17 and'2K18.
