When The Waylanders succeeds, the game is one of the most solid experiences I've had all year. But those successes are few and far between, while the rest of the title fails to keep itself afloat among a sea of bugs and poorly thought out gameplay decisions.
An interesting romp through a fun storyline with charismatic characters. However, the rest of the product can't help but drag it down with unnecessary and boring gameplay.
A solid experience worthy of some small praise when it works, but Alder's Blood: Definitive Edition is so marred by bugs that I cannot in good conscience recommend the game. God is dead and, so long as the game remains unpatched, God will remain dead.
Amazing character relationships and a bombastic plot make this a must-play for fans of Robotics;Notes. However, it's just not for those left uncomfortable by excessive perversion. Add in how often the game crashes and its awkward pacing and DaSH becomes very hard to get through.
From its expansive lore to its varied play styles, it is clear that Last Regiment has a lot of heart behind it, but the game breaks too easily, both in terms of game balance and bugs.
Playing as the Kandarian Demon isn't as fun as it should be and the single-player experience is somewhat lacking, but if you want to team up with three friends and show a bunch'a deadites just how deadly a prosthetic chainsaw can be, this is the game for you.
Cottage Living has room to improve, but it delivers on the simple joy of taking care of cute animals in a farm-like setting and shows that The Sims 4 still has much to offer.
While it certainly isn't a feast for the eyes, The Council exceeds expectations in all other regards, delivering a thoroughly enjoyable and occasionally thought-provoking experience.
An engaging experience to sink one's teeth into, Swansong may have its faults, but it offers a blood-curdling plot and amazing characters that simply can't be found anywhere else.
With twists that coil around the player, solid puzzles, and shockingly-good characters, Deadly Device sparks another electrifyingly good outing for Nancy Drew. While there are a few negatives in how the environment is constructed, the positives overtake them to deliver a truly magnetic experience.
With impeccable detail and character work, this twisty tale manages to combine heartfelt down-to-earth character relationships and truly fascinating science fiction conspiracies without dropping the ball on either count.
The Winters' Expansion is a beautiful extension of what Village already has, offering plenty of new ways to have fun, whether that means making the base game easier or getting to punch everyone in the face as Chris Redfield. But the real tour de force here is Shadows of Rose, a storyline that offers a more psychological style of horror than the franchise usually plays in and is worth every penny.
The Quarry's charming cast and eye-watering visual splendour are worth the price of entry alone, but its strong, varying plot is where it truly pops.
