Redeemer is a great example of a beat 'em up game that doesn't try to be anything it's not, offering a rich, action-packed atmosphere and plenty of dynamic combat. Although the game’s story isn’t particularly deep, the dynamic combat—with its brutal combos and gory scenes—makes for a first-rate experience that will be appreciated not only by fans of the genre but by all players who want to kick some serious ass.

Crown Wars: The Black Prince, a turn-based RPG set during the Hundred Years' War, offers a fairly satisfying dose of fun for players who enjoy this genre. The core of the game—including its mechanics, combat, and castle management—works well. Unfortunately, the title is let down by technical shortcomings that disrupt the smooth gameplay and can sometimes be truly frustrating.

SYNDUALITY Echo of Ada is an impressive action game set in the SYNDUALITY: Noir anime universe. It’s a third-person extraction PvPvE game that boasts an excellent, dynamic combat system. Unfortunately, SYNDUALITY’s mechanics are hampered by subpar optimization, limited enemy variety, and a sense of repetition that sets in over time. However, if you enjoy action-packed PvPvE extraction games and mechs, this is the game for you.

Sins of a Solar Empire II is a superbly crafted, challenging strategy game that, thanks to its combination of 4X and RTS elements, offers a unique experience for all fans of the genre and space. The unique races and factions, distinctive spaceships, and combat system—along with stunning graphics and sound—come together brilliantly. However, due to its complexity and challenge, it’s also a game that takes some time to learn. The game mechanics are demanding, and the initial learning curve may deter some potential players. If you’re willing to take the time to gradually master it, it will become a real time-sink. This sequel to the franchise is a clear success.

No More Room in Hell 2 builds on the foundation of its successful predecessor. Setting this eight-player cooperative extraction FPS in the midst of a zombie apocalypse was a great move, and in some situations, the game manages to create just the right kind of intense atmosphere. It therefore has great potential, and the concepts—combined with the gameplay—can keep you entertained for many hours. Unfortunately, the game is severely hampered by technical issues and bugs, which are literally rife at this stage. But when everything works as it should, it’s a fantastic co-op experience.

The Spirit of the Samurai is a well-crafted action platformer set in the Sengoku period, with a story based on Japanese mythology and folklore. The stop-motion animation, in keeping with the game’s style, is truly impressive and, together with the soundtrack, successfully evokes the right atmosphere. Unfortunately, the game is let down by various rough edges and the fact that some elements weren’t fully realized as originally intended. Even so, it’s a great game that clearly reflects the developer’s effort and passion, and it will undoubtedly appeal to fans of the genre as well as enthusiasts of Japanese mythology and folklore.

Soulmask offers a very well-executed blend of survival elements in a sandbox game set in a captivating, magical world full of primitive tribes. The option to choose between PvP and PvE servers can enhance your gaming experience just as much as the well-designed leveling system, including skill trees. The use of tribal companions—who can truly help you and even join you in battle—gives the impression that you’re just one of many and that the community comes first. However, the game clearly emphasizes online play with other players, with whom you’ll enjoy it the most.

1428: Shadows over Silesia - Tourney at the Bear Rock is a well-crafted DLC that perfectly complements the main game and offers a behind-the-scenes look at the events that shaped its story. All of the main game’s favorite mechanics have been elegantly carried over and woven into a story lasting roughly four hours, in which you can follow the early days of one of the original game’s protagonists.

Undisputed aimed to become the best boxing game in over a decade. The game features more than seventy licensed boxing celebrities, an entertaining career mode, and matches that are spiced up by various boxing styles. Unfortunately, the game is severely hampered by technical issues and various bugs. As it stands, I can’t recommend it (even though, as a boxing fan, I’d really like to), and instead I’d wait for possible future updates.

BROK the InvestiGator is a fantastic animated detective adventure game that masterfully combines point-and-click and beat ’em up elements. The game also successfully sets its deep story in a dystopian world, featuring well-written characters. The game offers over ten different endings that aren’t just about good versus evil; each one reflects the consequences of your actions throughout the entire gameplay. Plus, it’s entirely up to you whether you play through the entire game without resorting to violence or use your fists to get information. The graphics, reminiscent of animated works from the late ’90s, along with the smooth controls, are also a highlight. The only thing that slightly detracts from the game is the dialogue, which can sometimes feel a bit stilted.

Cossacks 3 is definitely not for everyone, and it certainly doesn't fit the modern concept of RTS and strategy games. However, if you're looking for laid-back gameplay, massive battles involving thousands of units, or if you're a die-hard fan, you'll enjoy the game and be willing to overlook some of its shortcomings.

DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO is an enjoyable arena fighter that pays homage to the legendary manga and, by extension, the game series. The dynamic battles, presented in a well-designed visual style, are engaging and, above all, entertaining. Playing with a keyboard, however, is a nightmare, so I recommend using a controller.

TIEBREAK: Official Game of the ATP and WTA is one of those titles that perhaps should have remained in early access for a while longer so that all its flaws could be ironed out. Issues with movement and gameplay, responsiveness, and a career mode that doesn’t allow you to develop your player or improve and boost their attributes—none of this is particularly exciting. On top of that, this is a PC game that doesn’t support a mouse or keyboard at all. I can only wholeheartedly recommend this title to true enthusiasts or players who are willing to wait until the developers get it together, as they’ve promised.

Iratus: Lord of the Dead is a traditional yet well-crafted turn-based dungeon crawler RPG. With its setting, diverse range of monsters and units, and skill system, it’s a well-made game that will keep you entertained. However, after playing for a while, the gameplay can start to feel repetitive—a feeling exacerbated by the fact that once you understand the game, you’ll be able to clear all levels using combinations of 3–5 minions.

Zero Sievert is an excellent game that will draw you in and get your heart racing with excitement and adrenaline. The setting in post-apocalyptic Eastern Europe following a nuclear power plant explosion is put to good use, and the pixel art style gives this top-down RPG shooter a unique flair. It’s truly an impressive title that will keep you hooked. With a wide variety of real-world weapons that you can customize, plus a vast array of resources, materials, and gear, you’re guaranteed never to get bored. Enemies won’t give you anything for free, and every time you survive a hunting trip, it’s an achievement in itself. Zero Sievert definitely has great potential, and if you enjoy this style, love the atmosphere of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series, and appreciate the gritty mechanics of Escape from Tarkov in a 2D pixel art style, this game will undoubtedly become a major time sink for you.

Satisfactory is definitely a great game that will entertain any fan of the genre. If you enjoy resource management, building automated factories, and exploring the world, you’ll be absolutely thrilled. The game’s sophistication and the logical interdependence of certain machines on raw materials, energy, and various devices are fantastic. Likewise, the emphasis on efficiency and the need to carefully plan logistics routes is something that can keep you entertained for a very long time.

Nobody Wants to Die is a captivating detective adventure game set in a dystopian New York in the year 2329, where the right to life depends on how much money you have. The game offers a great detective story that presents you with moral dilemmas exploring the questions of immortality and the right to life. Unfortunately, the game holds your hand a bit too much, leaving little room for the kind of in-depth investigation you might expect. Even so, thanks to its story and visuals, it’s a well-crafted game that’s sure to captivate you.

Diplomacy is Not an Option from the development studio Door 407 is undoubtedly a very ambitious project that is poised to become a great game in its category. However, it’s also a game with monotonous—albeit excellent—gameplay that will appeal primarily to fans of the genre and lovers of the combination of tower defense, base builder, and RTS. Defending your base will eventually become a real challenge, and you’ll be running around trying to handle everything at once, but the user-friendly interface does its job well. At this stage, there are still some bugs in the game that need to be fixed, and it’s clear that the developers still have a lot of work ahead of them to bring their creation to perfection.

Destroyer: The U-Boat Hunter is a naval simulator featuring a Fletcher-class destroyer, in which your mission is to hunt down enemy submarines and protect Allied vessels. The game largely revolves around monitoring instruments, planning, and strategy, so it’s neither an easy nor an intuitive title. The developers’ pursuit of maximum realism is also one of the game’s weaknesses, but it will appeal to niche players who love planning, simulators, and naval themes.

Terminus: Zombie Survivors is a fun yet fairly challenging roguelike game where you try to survive in a world overrun by zombies. Due to the turn-based gameplay and AP consumption, you must carefully consider every move you make. With a diverse range of playable classes, randomly generated environments, multiple possible endings, and a wide variety of items, the game offers amazing replayability. However, some players may be put off by the difficulty until they’ve learned the game well, understood its mechanics, and are able to enjoy its full potential.
