Assassin's Creed Valhalla is finally what I've been waiting for from this series for years, and as a former fan who had given up on the Assassins due to certain shortcomings, I'm glad to be able to return to the Assassin's Creed series after several years—and perhaps even go back and play the previous two installments of this modern trilogy. A must-play for fans. For newcomers or former fans, a spectacular and high-quality return to the world of the Assassins. Eight and a half out of ten.

Time Loader is a fantastic puzzle game that, thanks to its simple gameplay and friendly style, will captivate even the youngest players. So if you want to keep your kids entertained at the computer with a lighthearted and educational game, Time Loader is exactly what you’re looking for. For about twelve and a half euros, you’ll get three to four hours of quality fun with your kids, and trust me, this game will truly entertain them while also training their logical thinking. I give it eight out of ten.

Overall, F1 2021 is just a minor evolution that doesn’t offer much value for owners of the previous F1 2020. Although the new features—such as the story mode and three new race tracks—are interesting, they aren’t enough to justify the €60 price tag for owners of last year’s edition. I would therefore recommend waiting for a sale. However, if you last played 2019 or one of the older installments, there’s no need to think twice about buying F1 2021. This game series has a lot to offer you, and you definitely won’t regret buying it even at full price. I give it eight and a half out of ten.

GRID Legends truly delivered on its promises, and compared to its predecessor, this new installment is a huge step forward. While I still can’t say it’s a perfect game that reaches the level of quality needed for me to consider it the best entry in the series, it’s a step in the right direction. If Codemasters puts in the work, in three years they could deliver a perfect sequel that could easily crush the competition. I give it seven and a half out of ten.

To wrap up this review, as is my custom, I’ll also touch on the game’s visuals and overall technical quality. The visuals themselves come across as thoroughly average, and I can’t say I have a negative impression of them. It’s true that these days you can find slightly better-looking titles for a similar price, but on the other hand, Fast & Furious: Spy Racers Rise of Sh1ft3r is aimed more at younger players who probably won’t care much about the graphics. And even if they did, they won’t be disappointed by them either. All of this is more than made up for by excellent optimization, which never once let me down during the entire playthrough, and in this regard, I can definitely give the developers credit.

Unfortunately, Truck Driver isn’t a good game, and the only way to change that is to completely overhaul it. In my opinion, however, that won’t happen—partly because the developers are already working on a map expansion, which I assume will be a paid download. If you’re looking for at least a somewhat decent truck simulator on console, go with On The Road: Truck Simulator instead, which I personally consider the lesser of two evils. Essentially, neither of them is any good. As for PC gamers, there’s no need to even consider buying it.

The action-packed space shooter Chorus is a high-quality, entertaining, and enjoyable game that left me with an overall positive impression. Were it not for a few minor shortcomings, such as the untapped potential of the open world or the repetitive side activities, Chorus could have ranked among the best games the gaming world has brought us this year. Even so, the game will appeal to all fans of action games, especially space shooters. On behalf of our editorial team, I’m giving the game seven out of ten points.

My final rating might surprise you, but personally, I have to say that despite the shortcomings I mentioned, I had fun playing it. Of course, if you’re looking for a reliable, high-quality bus simulator, Astragon’s Bus Simulator series will give you a much better sense of what it’s like to be a driver. However, if you just want to put your feet up and are looking for a casual, relaxing game, Bus Driver Simulator can keep you entertained for a while. Personally, though, I recommend waiting for a sale, as the price of €24.99 is simply too high given the quality of the game, and for the same or a similar price, the competition is several tiers above this title.

Playground Games has managed to create an incredible masterpiece that left me shaking my head in a good way. Forza Horizon 5 has surpassed itself in every way, as well as other similar racing games. The game offers players absolute freedom and an unforgettable experience. Without a second thought, I’m giving it nine and a half out of ten.

TT Isle of Man 2 is undoubtedly better than its predecessor in every way. The developers at KT Racing have significantly refined the driving model and improved the career mode in many respects. However, the series still has a few shortcomings that slightly detract from the overall experience. Despite this, it’s a great game that should be a staple in any racing simulator enthusiast’s library.

The first installment of TT Isle of Man from KT Racing is more of a technical demo that lays a solid foundation for a potentially successful series in the future. We’ll see how the next installment improves in terms of quality, but the first game reviewed here falls into the “above-average” category due to its mediocre graphics and a driving model that sometimes behaves oddly. However, I certainly wouldn’t write off this series just yet; I’d wait and see how the next installment improves in quality.

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.
