Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden explores profound themes through the well-written and acted story of Antei and Red. The game presents morally complex choices without clear-cut good or evil. While the combat becomes repetitive and the music and graphics are unremarkable, the story stands out as original and entertaining in today's gaming landscape.

The Gangs of Sherwood had a lot of potential, whether because of the cooperation, the alternate world, or simply because of Robin Hood's big name. But it failed. Not significantly, but it failed. The title's main flaw is its very little content with semi-repetitive gameplay. Gangs of Sherwood doesn't do anything downright wrong, but it also fails to do anything right, making it just another mediocre title that will soon fade into the annals of history.

6 / 10 - PAYDAY 3
Oct 12, 2023

Payday 3 has a big future ahead of it, and we haven't heard the last of it yet. But now? It's off to a dismal start, with woefully little content. But if you focus on the gameplay, it's fresh, and the improved stealth is a big step forward. Payday 3 is a pretty good title that plays well, but it's just a skeleton that needs to be built upon.

Immortals of Aveum had more than that, but it is still an OK title; it is not extraordinary, but it doesn't offend, and on the other hand, the humor and audio side of things are good. It's a shame about the appalling technical state on PC, where the title has problems even on a more robust build, but when the developers fix it? It'll be an acceptable title to unwind with.

6 / 10 - Atlas Fallen
Aug 9, 2023

Atlas Fallen had great potential, thanks to its exciting dune setting and magical fantasy world. However, this world, story, and characters make Atlas Fallen a mediocre title. Still, the gameplay is fun, the combat is fresh, and moving around the map thanks to the exciting sand surfing will keep you entertained, but you probably won't remember the game when you're done.

Aliens: Dark Descent is a more than exciting title with much to offer, especially in terms of gameplay, thanks to an exciting mix of game genres. The developers have managed to capture the Alien atmosphere perfectly, and this could be a dream come true for fans of the movie prequel. I would love to see a second installment allowing players more tactical options. Additionally, it's a shame that the game didn't avoid annoying bugs that spoil the overall impression of an otherwise great game.

Street Fighter 6 is a step forward in the fighting games genre—new mechanics, heroes, and accessibility for complete newcomers to the series. However, the novelty in the form of the World Tour turned out to be terrible. Outdated game design, uninteresting world, and quests. Although it could have been a significant part of the game that could have shot the genre to a new level, it's just a dud mode that feels like a completely different studio working on it.

The Last Spell is an excellent title for long evenings. It's frustrating in places, but it's also fair and can be rewarding. The great rock music and the pixelated graphics help make this one of the best indie efforts of the year, at least for now.

8 / 10 - Backfirewall
Feb 27, 2023

Backfirewall_ is an enjoyable comedic romp that gives us a glimpse into the corners of the telephone realm as we've never had the chance to see it before. The great audiovisual design and humor of OS9's narrator is something the developers have done well. It's a shame that the logic puzzles are a bit easier, but that doesn't matter in the end.

Goat Simulator 3 is a truly remarkable experience, and you have to admit that the developers have a great imagination because creating something like this must have been an experience too. Despite how crazy it is, it's not that bad, as doing all sorts of crazy things is fun, and the heaps of innuendo make it a funny game sometimes.

We Were Here Forever is an excellent example of how cooperative two-player games should be made. Great puzzles combined with an exciting environment that won't get tired, amazing graphics, and a significant audio component. More of a shame is the terrible optimization and weaker story, which this time the authors try to push more to the forefront than in previous installments.

MLB The Show is still one of the best sports games, but that doesn't change the fact that this year's installment isn't a step forward. On the contrary, there are so few changes to the gameplay that it's ultimately a shame. Road to the Show, for example, would have deserved some changes by now.

Disciples: Liberation is not a coup or a revolution, but it tries to do everything right. Yes, it has flaws, but the developers did an excellent job for the first big game.

The Last Campfire is a short experience, but it's all the more beautiful. Great music, excellent graphics, and fun playability are handled great. This title deserves your attention even more than a year after its release.

3 / 10 - ICARUS
Dec 20, 2021

Icarus has an interesting concept that could work in the future, but now? At the stage the game is at, there is nothing more to talk about than the early beta phase of an interesting project that may one day be more than just a survival title.

Hood: Outlaws & Legends could have been good game. You can see a lot of good ideas here and games with good coop is alway lack. Developers tried to make the best they could, but they messed up everything they could and that's a shame.

MLB the Show is an excellent title that'll be enjoyed by all fans of the sport and even those who are unexperienced in it. It's a beautiful example of how sports simulations should be made. However, this year's only a small step forward and unfortunately it won't bring much new content compared to last games.

7 / 10 - Outriders
Apr 12, 2021

Outriders isn't good, but isn't bad either. It has its strong sides, such as duels, which keep a number of negatives at bay; for example in the presentation of a mediocre story. Still, you can enjoy the game and make more out of it if you play with your friends. But it's definitely not for everyone.

If you've ever played a Stronghold series in the past, you'll feel at home again. And that is perhaps the greatest weakness of the game. Developers were afraid of innovation, so we have a title that overslept that it's 2021. Instead, it's just a mediocre game that will soon be forgotten again.

5 / 10 - Empire of Sin
Feb 10, 2021

The first hours of the game had a lot to offer, but the gameplay quickly became repetitive, and all the smaller and larger mistakes began to surface, which in the end hurt the Empire of Sin more than it should.
