Postal 4: No Regerts failed. The game came out of Early Access too early and is completely broken. It tries to ride on the nostalgia of the second installment, but it doesn't work.

Good intentions for creating great games may not be enough, and Vivat Slovakia is a shining example of this. The team took on such an ambitious task that it was practically impossible to accomplish. The game's setting is great, but it still needs another year or two of development.

5 / 10 - Scars Above
Feb 28, 2023

Scars Above comes across as an average title. The developers had a lot of good ideas that fell flat due to mediocre execution. The game can be recommended to fans of the Alien movie franchise, but we recommend not to have too high expectations.

5 / 10 - Forspoken
Feb 5, 2023

Forspoken is a game with fantastic potential, but it suffers from many problems. To unlock its full potential, you need to get used to the game's pace and start enjoying the great feeling of speed, but if you play slowly, you'll soon break the game.

5 / 10 - Serious Sam 4
Oct 18, 2020

Serious Sam 4 takes a good care of the series' legacy and fans will be happy. But the visual style hardly meets modern standards and level-design is also a bit boring.

Assassin's Creed: Shadows is technically a very well-done installment in the series. The Japanese setting is beautiful, the graphics are breathtaking, and the optimization is very decent. The game's main failings are the need for constant grinding and a relatively uninteresting main story.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard is not aimed at loyal fans of the series but rather at younger gamers or those playing their first RPG. The game is crafted very solidly but uses many RPG elements very superficially.

The developers made some severe mistakes in the game's design. Maybe they cut too big a bite, or perhaps they didn't have enough funding to tweak the game. Outcast: A New Beginning is at its most entertaining at the very end, which probably, due to a lack of patience, will be seen by a minimum of players.

The return to the franchise's roots has been a success for the developers. They returned the old mechanics, which is insufficient for a perfect game. Unfortunately, Assassin's Creed Mirage lacks coherent direction and a quality script. After the previous long episodes, however, this is a pretty enjoyable game for a weekend.

6 / 10 - Starfield
Sep 9, 2023

In general, Starfield delivers an above-average combination of mediocre mechanics. There's no denying that Bethesda has created a strong core on which they can build content for months, maybe years to come, through updates and mods. And while Starfield isn't as bad off technologically as it was at the launch of No Man's Sky, it's the vision of future updates that can turn Starfield into something better. To be a game that doesn't just target Bethesda fans but brings a better experience to fans of all space games.

1428: Shadows over Silesia is a game with a unique setting that can thrill you. The game suffers in many places from unfinished design decisions, but once you stop struggling with it, you'll enjoy it to the fullest.

6 / 10 - Polda 7
Apr 16, 2022

Polda 7 is a classic Czech point & click adventure game that doesn't push the genre in any way but offers a solid portion of wacky humor that has something to it.

Serious Sam: Siberian Mayhem delivers what you'd expect from a quality DLC. It offers plenty of content and fun and addresses some of the original's shortcomings. As a result, we can recommend it to all fans of retro shooters. However, younger and more demanding players will hardly be interested.

Sid Meier's Civilization VII brings a fresh perspective to the series and attempts to overcome many of the shortcomings of the previous installments. The game is more nimble, clearer, and more complex than ever before. Still, it's not exactly welcoming to new players.

Last Train Home is an exciting combination of genres, reminiscent of the Commandos or Frostpunk series. Still, the game goes its way and is worth playing. The UI design slightly throws a spanner in the works, and the stealth could be more elaborate. However, the game makes up for these flaws with its originality and connection to actual historical events.

The Last Case of Benedict Fox is an enjoyable detective metroidvania that impresses with its story and many exciting puzzles. However, the game suffers from minor bugs and overly excessive pathfinding.

7 / 10 - The Gunk
Feb 12, 2022

The Gunk is an excellent relaxing game without any innovations, but it has a charming, comfortable pace and offers a satisfying cleaning feeling.

Mortal Kombat 11 is the perfect next entry to the series, which raises the classic elements of the fighting game to a higher level. You can blame title that it feels less brutal than the previous iterations, or that on some points it resembles a bit of mechanics from mobile games. But its foundation is clean, polished and fun. For fans of the series, this is a "must have" title. On the other hand it's a shame to see usage of grindwall mechanism in a 60$ game.

8 / 10 - Evil West
Nov 30, 2022

Evil West offers an unconventional combination of Wild West and vampire themes and does it ideally in every way. The game provides an enjoyable combat system combining close and ranged combat. It's a ride you'll enjoy from start to finish, and a similar pace would be the envy of many AAA titles.

Most recent installment of the Assassin's Creed series do not even tries to be like the original trilogy, but if you have liked last two games, you will also love this one.
