Crysis Remastered Trilogy was undoubtedly a success, and it shows that remasters of older games don't always have to be a flop. The developers managed to squeeze about as much as they could out of CryEngine in this regard, and Saber Interactive deserves a hat tip for their work. It's just a shame about the bugs in the first game.

Creating an off-road racing simulator to differentiate yourself from the competition is undoubtedly a great idea. However, it also needs to be well crafted, which is definitely not the case with Overpass. Despite the fact that the title offers decent physics where you have to plan your every run, there are many aspects that bring Overpass down to a worse average. These are mainly the outdated graphics, uninteresting career and only two types of races without any sauce around. For the very die-hard fans of off-road racing, we can probably recommend the title with a nod of both eyes and ears even with the aforementioned shortcomings, but for the rest of us, we say hands off.

Riders Republic brings a unique experience that offers a large portion of all kinds of adrenaline activities. If you're looking for an open-ended title where you can go crazy and let loose, or if you've played the previous STEEP, Riders Republic is exactly the game you're looking for, and it definitely pushes the boundaries of its predecessor by a considerable length. We'll see what interest players show over time, but already Ubisoft's new sports title is well on its way to success.

GRID (2019) unfortunately didn't live up to what was expected of it as a reboot of the franchise. A great racing franchise, the new installment kills off a mostly boring and lengthy career with minimal content, where the truncation of the racing modes is a rather significant step backwards. Even the revolutionary Nemesis system and the great driving model can't make up for the shortcomings that the GRID series reboot has brought.

RiMS Racing is an absolutely unique affair, which will suit especially fans of racing simulators, who are not afraid of new challenges. Realistic physics combining repair and tuning of your machine has succeeded to the first place, and if it weren't for a few unnecessary fouls, I could describe RiMS Racing as a really great game. However, the aforementioned flaws bring the title to its knees, especially the AI and the ever-repetitive circuits. If you happen to be a newcomer to the genre and would like to get RiMS Racing, prepare yourself for long hours of nerves and the fact that the game won't give you anything for free. It makes every success you achieve all the more delicious. For me, seven out of ten.

Indie rogue-lite shooter Roboquest is a real surprise for me in all respects, as I didn't expect this title to make such a pleasant impression on me. So if you are an avid fan of fast-paced shooters and you can get over the fact that you have to finish the game in one go, we can definitely recommend Roboquest on behalf of our editorial team. However, if you are not a patient person and want to relax with the game, you should consider the purchase carefully.

The Tetris Effect: Connected is undoubtedly a great successor to the more than 35-year-old classic, and if you're a Tetris fan or just want to reminisce about your childhood, there's no reason not to get the latest addition to the family. However, you have to swallow the slightly higher price tag than would probably be worthy of a game of this type.

Bus Simulator 21 is undoubtedly a solid sequel that takes some aspects to a better level. Whether you're a die-hard bus fan and have played the previous installments, or a complete newcomer and don't mind some of the bigger or smaller flaws and bugs, there's no reason not to recommend the new installment. However, if you're not in a hurry to play Bus Simulator 21, you should wait a few weeks until the developers tweak the title at least a little.

Fernbus Simulator is also a decent title that will please especially die-hard fans of bus simulators. The game boasts an extensive map, which even in its basic form offers several dozen hours of gameplay. We must also highlight the presence of a real bus company and the above-average interiors of the buses. The overall impression, on the other hand, is spoiled by the below-average artificial intelligence, optimization and slightly worse controls.

Observer: System Redux from Polish studio Bloober Team is undoubtedly a great psychological horror game from the future. It offers you a good story, nice visuals and a nerve-wracking dark atmosphere, which may not quite reach the more experienced horror gamers. Despite the overall quality, we have to mention a few flaws, which include the same old gameplay, repetitive quests and various overdone effects that may not impress some players. All in all, however, we can definitely recommend Observer: System Redux!

Lawn Mowing Simulator is an interesting title at first glance, which attracts players primarily by its focus, and after our review we have to say that we were pleasantly surprised in some ways. I can assure you that this is not just another bizarro game, and if some aspects were handled better, Lawn Mowing Simulator could be a good simulator as well. What we must clearly highlight are the licensed machines and their processing, especially in terms of sound, and the presence of some details, such as setting the mower to a certain type of vegetation. However, the same old gameplay and terrible optimization make the title just a mediocre piece that will probably stop being fun for most players after a few hours. We recommend the game only if you have a powerful enough machine and for some reason don't want to play Farming Simulator or some other, better title.

Cake Bash is another interesting party game, which you will enjoy especially with a bunch of good friends, where you can compare your reflexes against each other and compete in several undemanding disciplines. If you don't want to play any big titles and just want to have fun, this game is exactly what you're looking for.

Drone Swarm from Stillalive Studios is a good RTS, in which fast action and above all your nimble reflexes play the main role. Definitely don't expect any strategic planning or much logical thinking. The title boasts an idea that's a little different from most other RTSs, and undoubtedly a great visual component. What disappoints, on the other hand, is the worse optimization and weaker story, which doesn't play such a big role in this type of game.

Monster Energy Supercross - The Official Videogame 4 is undoubtedly an interesting racing title, which, however, in its focus and processing will fit rather die-hard fans of the genre, and thus racing games. The game's well-designed career mode is fun to play, and the constant upgrading and training of your driver works well. We also like the difficult gameplay, which as a player you have to adapt to, and in which any possibility of different driving assistants is eliminated. An equally good aspect is the detailed customisation of the rider, which you can customise to your liking and even use officially licensed clothing to do so. What hurts the game, on the other hand, is the poor AI, mediocre graphics and the unbalanced difficulty of your opponents.

Rail Route is a very addictive, but also quite complex game that in my opinion is not for everyone. When playing it, the player must arm himself with the necessary amount of patience, engage his imagination and also think a lot. What I clearly praise about the game is the idea itself, as there is no simulator of this kind on the gaming market. We must also mention the detailed management, where even a minor mistake can have fatal consequences for the player. It is also worth mentioning the very simple and great-looking visuals and pleasant music, which fits perfectly into the overall atmosphere.

Fishing: North Atlantic is certainly not a revolution, but it is a very good evolution of the first installment, offering new fishing options and old and improved aspects from the original Fishing: Barents Sea. For new players, this is definitely a feat that is unrivalled on the market today, and if you are still hesitant about buying a fishing simulator, we can definitely recommend this title. For die-hard fans of the first installment, this is a nice improvement, and if you liked the first installment, you'll have just as much fun here. Unfortunately, the title is not without its faults, which North Atlantic copied from its older brother. Don't expect any great challenge here either, as the second sequel focuses more on relaxation and recreation. Another big minus are the mediocre textures, which were also already present in the first installment. Despite all this, this is a very good game that no fan of virtual fishing should miss.

Tools Up! is simply another goof that makes fun of another activity in people's lives. After cooking in the form of Overcooked! and the house moving of Moving Out, you get to renovate a house, which again, you'll enjoy mostly with friends. The title offers a cool challenge, a well-crafted soundtrack and nice visuals that make the gameplay even more immersive. The final impression is spoiled by poorly optimised controls in some respects and a few bugs that can hurt you a lot during gameplay.

Fishing: Barents Sea is exactly the title you'll want to play after a long and tiring day, when you want to switch off and clear your head at all costs. The title offers a very simple gameplay without any complicated thinking and also a quick progression that will ensure that the game won't hold you up with anything. This, of course, removes any more complex challenge that die-hard and professional players of the genre will be looking for. Furthermore, the visuals are a little disappointing, as they are only mediocre for 2018. Despite this, Fishing: Barents Sea is a great game that we in our editorial team can unequivocally recommend.

Moving Out can be described as a kind of crazy shit that makes fun of the work of a mover. You'll especially enjoy the title with your friends in online co-op, thanks to which you can invite up to four players and kill several long evenings thanks to the thirty levels. If you can swallow a few bugs, such as the not-so-good controls or the occasional character getting stuck, you won't regret your money.

Drift 21 boasts a fun and very successful car building and modification simulation. It offers a fully licensed fleet of cars as well as parts for the cars themselves. What the developers could improve before the full release, on the other hand, is the handling of the car itself on the racetrack and, in some ways, the visuals of the game. More content would also be nice.
