Armikrog is a missed opportunity, but despite its design flaws and technical issues, it's worth playing even if just for the unique visual experience.
I'm glad to see the DOA series come to PC, but this port is a bit shaky at launch. The core gameplay is good, but no online play (for about three months when a patch comes out), a mixed graphical presentation, and other oddities make this hard to recommend right now -- might be best to give it some time to simmer.
Playgrounds does alright for itself coming off the bench, hopefully we see Saber continue to refine this and perhaps we'll see some kind of semi-annualized franchise here that gets progressively better.
For die-hard Wasteland 3 fans, this expansion offers a compelling reason to return, but at a price that’s a little bit proud. For more casual players, or those who have yet to dive into Colorado, you may be well advised to wait for the inevitable complete edition that will probably release next year.
A strange, compelling game that the more you read about the more you're going to want to play it -- and there's no better way currently to do so than this HD version.
A great 2D platforming party game best played locally, Runbow is a good buy for your multiplayer playlist.
The Executioner is short, but enjoyable. And at $5, it's worth playing on its own or as a fun way to wrap up your time The Evil Within.
Even if ROTT does not stand the test of time as well as other classics of its day, I’m still happy that Nightdive and New Blood released the Ludicrous Edition. While not without its shortcomings, and honestly these are the same shortcomings its always had, the game remains pretty unique, challenging, and fun more often than not. I love that all three original Campaigns are included, as well as a big brand new one, and that several nice options are included as well that give players a more customized and slightly modernized experience. All of this for a very reasonable MSRP of $20 make ROTT: Ludicrous Edition an easy recommend for anyone that enjoyed it some thirty years ago or those that want to take on an old school, hyper-violent, and challenging FPS.
Overall, Lacuna is an interesting adaptation on the traditional point-and-click gameplay design. Though my interest in the characters and story plateaued around the halfway point of the game, they are both pretty well thought out and your mileage/interest in them may fair better than mine. At $20, it’s worth a look for fans of sci-fi noir adventure games.
Recalling fun times playng The Typing of the Dead on Dreamcast many years ago, I decided to give Type Knight a run. I’m pleased to say it’s been enjoyable.
Nupixo has done a fine job with Detective Di, all things considered. Anyone that enjoys a good mystery story or point and click games would do well to make time for this one and hopefully we’ll see Nupixo continue to invest in the genre.
Compared to the first DLC, Turf Wars is much more combat focused. Overall, I didn’t like it as much as the first DLC, not because combat isn’t fun, but it’s gotten quite repetitive and tedious. Still, I suspect part three, arriving next month, will strike a better balance overall, as it completes the City That Never Sleeps story arc.
Clearly, fans of the genre, especially those that prefer to play on console as opposed to PC, should give PD a serious look. If you're on the fence about diving into the genre, and your committed, this is also a great way to jump in, just expect some frustrations along the way.available
It was never a ground-breaking game per se, but it is well put together and worth checking out.
Ragnarok is a beast of an expansion pack, and it gets more right than wrong. It's not quite as polished or as impressive as the original and its expansion from so many years ago, but it's still a valiant effort and a solid expansion to a great game.
While MSH2 does not innovate, it does, other than some glitching and sketchy design decisions, provide another fun LEGO romp that's best enjoyed in local co-op.
This article would be a lot more interesting if I knew how to play chess and could better speak to the quality of the AI, but, unfortunately I'm not in that position. That said, given the price and what Dungeon Chess brings to the table, no pun intended, this seems like a something chess players should check out.
Bottomline, if you're into the first person exploration and horror genre and can handle some spooks in VR, AFFECTED is definitely worth checking out.
For a simple, short, and mostly fun game, you can do a lot worse than Tank Troopers.
On the whole, though, Ghostrunner 2 is a good game. It’s not my preferred type of first person action, but what it does is unique, cool, and rather well done. As mentioned out the outset, if you liked the first game and want to see a modest, but confident, evolution of that, GR2 is for you. It successfully makes the GR experience more robust without taking away from the unique action the first game offered.
