Mick Fraser's Reviews
Despite some iffy performance and a lot of proper nouns that I just couldn't track properly, I enjoyed my time with Mechwarrior 5: Clans.
Throne and Liberty has some solid ideas, but it's mostly held up by the combat and exploration, rather than the actual MMO elements.
Dead Season is a decent game for fans of the turn-based genre who like to feel that everything is a little bit hopeless.
Diablo 4: Vessel of Hatred is a worthy adventure and a great reason to head back to Sanctuary - if you ever left in the first place.
Halls of Torment offers tons of replayability with minimal fuss, and is just challenging enough to keep you engaged for every moment.
Ravenswatch is an absolute blast. Gorgeous to look at, smooth and responsive to play, and peppered with the kind of variety that encourages you to keep going back
Filled with secrets and dangers, Remnant 2: The Dark Horizon is a solid final offering for the three promised expansions.
Reynatis isn't an awful game to play, but it remains a pretty average experience throughout.
If you're craving a new Metroidvania adventure then Marko: Beyond Brave will certainly kill a few hours.
Despite having a siilly name and a pretty well-worn premise, Evotinction is a solid debut from Spikewave.
Despite some glitches here and there, which are likely a by-product of the speed, DeathSprint 66 is a lot of fun.
Yars Rising is a decent enough adventure, but it feels like a very odd way to revive Atari's legendary franchise.
I Am Your Beast wastes no time in establishing your character, Harding, as a John Wick-style badass, and keeps you there for the whole game.
Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 is a superb foray into the universe and a more-than-worthy successor to the original.
Star Trucker is either wildly infuriating or incredibly relaxing, depending on how you approach it on a given day.
Sadly, Concord struggles to find its own identity given the overused sci-fi setting and the overdone gameplay structure.
My ultimate takeaway from Tactical Breach Wizards is that I simply didn't expect it be so refreshing.
Hands down, one of this year's best action games - Black Myth: Wukong is a flurry of sublime combat and expert boss design.
By modern standards Phantom Spark may even be considered a little barebones, but it's also a relaxing, chilled out experience.
Hidden Through Time 2: Discovery is exactly what it needs to be, and a great option for anyone looking for a different kind of cozy puzzle game.
