Colony Ship: A Post-Earth Role Playing Game is already at this stage a very good game that makes you think and rethink your every move. The game features a very elaborate character system, many items and a game world set on an interplanetary ship. Difficult battles and tactical AI additionally ensure that you feel good about every win, at least until you look at the loot or go for the reward for completing a task, when you're more likely to pull a sad face. Your actions have consequences and a tarnished reputation is hard to repair. If you work for one faction, the other factions will react strongly to it. The game still has a long way to go, but it is already a hilarious RPG at this stage.

TheHunter: Call of the Wild is clearly one of the very good hunting simulators. The behaviour of the animals is absolutely logical and corresponds to reality. Graphically, it is a gem that is pleasing to the eye, and if you have the opportunity to play on a powerful machine, you will really enjoy this pleasure to the fullest. Thanks to a large variety of DLC, you can venture to virtually every known corner of the world. Unfortunately, the game also has a few lingering bugs in the form of game getting stuck on rocks. If you're also one of the achievement hunters on Steam, you're going to cry here. There are several achievements in the game that are buggy. You'll never get the two extra achievements because it was just a seasonal Halloween event from 2018.

The Riftbreaker is a great combination of real-time strategy, tower defence and bullet hell combat. Thanks to its hilarious RPG elements, large amount of equipment and extensive tech tree, it is a very sophisticated work. The Riftbreaker will clearly become a time guzzler as you will want more and more. The game also has very intuitive gameplay, great graphics, sound effects and soundtrack. Fans of Factorio, who missed the proper action in the aforementioned title, will also find satisfaction here.

The Friends of Ringo Ishikawa is a very hilarious open world beat'em up game that offers a lot of fun and different things to do. The story will show you what true friendship is, but also where the limits are, where even friends won't go. The question of what all has to happen to turn friends into strangers and strangers into true friends is equally addressed, and last but not least you will see how fragile student love can be. The play is definitely not for everyone. Its loose structure won't appeal to players who want specific goals, and its refusal to explain anything can feel clunky. This is an open-world game where you can do whatever you want, but unfortunately there is no map and sometimes the interaction is a bit of a drag. You do get a great feel for the life of a teenage high school gang leader, though, who has to contend not only with a rival gang, but with his own life.

Daymare 1998 is a hilarious horror game, which manages to captivate especially with its storytelling divided between the three main protagonists. The story and the horror atmosphere manage to captivate, and together with the hilarious sound effects and soundtrack make for a really good combination of fun with the need to think, even with the more challenging puzzles. It is thus a good horror game, although unfortunately it has some graphical imperfections that bring it down for today, and rather clunky inventory management.

ELEX is a hilarious RPG game that announced a great comeback of Piranha Bytes developers. It is a classic honest-to-goodness RPG that offers well-functioning gameplay mechanics along with a diverse array of enemies, items and a world to explore. The side quests are also very well thought out and are not just an annoying element in the game, as with some competing titles in this genre. Unfortunately, the game still suffers from some ailments, but despite this, it is still a quality RPG that will definitely entertain, repeatedly, as the replayability is very decent for this title.

Lucius really isn't for everyone. However, if you're tired of always playing as a positive character and saving the world, or if you want revenge on your maid who wouldn't let you watch Tom and Jerry when you were little, then this game is for you. The game concept, effects and elements may be dated, but the game still has something to offer after all these years.

Sheltered 2 offers many hilarious mechanisms that nicely combine combat, item acquisition, building and crafting with survival elements. In addition, you'll also see bunker building and dealing with other factions that react to your behaviour. Unfortunately, the game is dragged down heavily by the strong bugginess and the presence of various absurdities and paradoxes. In this state, unfortunately, a game with good mechanisms and elements cannot be recommended due to the presence of bugs that noticeably affect gameplay.

Graphically, the game Bud Spencer & Terence Hill - Slaps And Beans is set in a classic and attractive pixel retro style in the concept of a platformer, which looks very pleasant and playful. Of course, you can't expect a big graphical marvel that will leave you open-mouthed, but it fits the concept of the game perfectly. Moreover, if you are a fan of B&T, you will be able to recognize the individual characters from their films. Sound-wise, the game is more than good. The original music from the films accompanies us throughout the game, and if you just want to listen to the music, there is a jukebox in the menu. The sound effects are appropriate to the game, and the developers haven't forgotten the sounds from the movies when Bud gives someone a "hammer blow" to the head or Terrence his legendary "ping pong". Those who were looking forward to the dubbing are unfortunately out of luck. The game contains no dubbing, the conversations are within the text. Fortunately, the developers have thought about the Czech Republic, so there is complete Czech in the game.

Railway Empire is a very hilarious and interesting work that shows the development of railways throughout history in a great way. The game stands out especially for its honestly crafted campaign, historical accuracy and also for its very attractive graphics and sound system of individual machines. The presence of the competition, which is not afraid to take unfair actions against you, and the extensive technology tree further strengthen the pleasant gaming experience. However, everything takes its toll, and there are a moderate number of minor, rather isolated bugs in the game. What's really annoying, however, is the cheating AI that bends certain gameplay mechanics to its advantage in certain situations, or outright ignores them. Still, this is a very accomplished game that will keep fans of the genre, and especially train lovers, happy and entertained for hours.

Dex is an awesome Czech platformer from cyberpunk environment with a touch of Deus Ex. In the beginning the game had a few bugs, but these have long since been fixed, and thanks to the Czech dubbing it is a really good choice for all lovers of the genre. This is a hilarious old-school RPG that immerses you with its non-linear story and a variety of side quests.

Grand Tactician: The Civil War (1861-1865) is a very good strategy game that offers a unique insight into the war of the North against the South. The game has many great strategic elements, both in terms of the battle interface, as well as logistics and economics. In addition, it includes politics and the subsequent impact on overall morale. However, it is a rather difficult strategy, not so much because of the tactical and battle circumstances, but rather because of the need to learn and master the game mechanisms and elements. The user interface could definitely be friendlier and more intuitive. If you are a strategy lover, GCTW is the obvious choice for you. However, if you're just starting out with strategy or are a casual RTS player, you'd better reach for another, lighter game, because at least at first you'll be rather unhappy with GTCW.

Monster Sanctuary falls into the category of games that take inspiration from the world of Pokémon. In this case, however, inspiration has succeeded where others have failed. The game offers honestly crafted mechanics and skills of various monsters that you can really win with. You just have to be patient, learn the game mechanics and figure out what to expect from which monster.

Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is clearly one of the best RPGs in its category. The game offers an engaging story, a large and elaborate game world with a wide variety of playable classes, interesting NPC characters and monsters, all in a beautiful graphic design. Most of the initial bugs have already been successfully fixed or are being worked on. If you can get over the sometimes weaker AI of your companions (which you can nevertheless control yourself), there's nothing stopping you from embarking on a grand adventure and enjoying the world and the entire Pathfinder universe in all its glory.

Tennis Manager 2021 is a very hilarious and sophisticated sports management simulator that shows the behind-the-scenes world of tennis legends and their managers. The game definitely has a lot to offer, and if you are a tennis lover, this is a clear choice for you. However, the overall impression is brought down by the weaker audio and overall sound system. The graphics of the matches could also be a bit better.

Song of Iron is a very successful one-man effort that delivers an impressive action-platformer with a combination of exploration, combat and obstacle overcoming. The game has a great atmosphere and a very hilarious soundtrack which, if you're a fan and liked the soundtrack of the Vikings series for example, you'll be thrilled to hear. Unfortunately the game is quite short and the combat could use a bit more depth or variety. If you like platformers with obstacle climbing and are tempted to wander through the very well crafted Nordic world, then you will not go wrong with this game.

HighFleet is really a very successful game that combines several gameplay elements together and greatly revitalizes the shoot 'em up genre with new elements. In terms of sophistication and the combination of several gameplay elements, this is a brilliant title that definitely impresses. However, there are flaws, especially within the chaos that immediately falls upon the player in the first few hours before they become more familiar with everything. However, if you give this game a chance and spend a few hours getting to grips with the game's principles, controls and mechanisms, it becomes a definite time guzzler.

Layers of Fear is a very good horror adventure game with an original story, a great atmosphere and a compulsion that will pull you further and further. However, the game is quite short and can be run through in nearly an hour and a half of gameplay. If you put in a little effort and focus on exploring the various documents that lead more towards explaining the story and your character, you'll get to two hours of pure game time. It should be added, however, that this is only one playthrough. The game offers three different final endings, and therefore different renditions of the final image. So if you want to see all the available endings, then the game will keep you entertained for seven hours of your time.

Crysis Remastered is hard to rate because it is a great game in a new graphical coat. Thus, it is a quality FPS that offers a first-class gaming experience, an interesting story and a lot of gaming fun. The game is mainly brought down by the fps drop and optimization in some situations, the lack of the Warhead datadisc and the weaker AI in places. However, if you want to reminisce about a title that broke gaming and technical benchmarks, or if you want to play an honest FPS and are playing Crysis for the first time, you'll get a great serving of fun in a beautiful graphical coat.

Strategic Mind: The Pacific is a hilarious turn-based strategy game that relies on historically accurate aspects and units, which is definitely one of the game's biggest draws. However, it certainly won't be for everyone and may be rather frustrating for the casual gamer. However, if you like turn-based strategies where you have to really think and take care of your army and units, this is a very good game.
