The Plucky Squire is one of the best games of this year. The highly varied gameplay perfectly combines with a creative approach to building the game world in both 2D and 3D sequences. The above elements, combined with near-perfect technical condition and very good sound design, put this production next to the best games of the year.

Neva is an extremely emotional journey that catches your heart and makes you cry. It is probably my favorite game of the year at the moment, due to the fact that it provided me with everything I need in a video game. Very good gameplay, beautiful graphics and an emotional soundtrack complementing it all, gives one of the best gaming blends this year.

Split Fiction is one of the top candidates for Game of the Year 2025, I have no doubt about that. It is a great blend of genres that surprises you with something new and innovative at every turn. Josef Fares, after the great It Takes Two, has done it again and delivered one of the best experiences of the year.

VIDEOVERSE surprised me tremendously. It is a great story that hit me with strong nostalgia and emotions I felt years ago. Players will find a lot of things to identify with here and it carries an important message that everyone should know. This is the perfect late night adventure that will take you back to the past of the Internet.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is, for me, the best two-dimensional Mario game ever. Incredibly creative in all possible aspects of gameplay, and a ton of fun for a player of any age. There's something for everyone, whether it's fully casual gameplay or more challenging levels.

Alan Wake II is an outstanding piece of work. An amazing combination of a game with live-action elements that presents a brilliantly written story and characters with engaging and innovative gameplay, which is accented by a phenomenal audio system and a beautifully composed soundtrack. The new game from Remedy is a strong contender in the race for Game of the Year.

The Crew Motorfest finally brings The Crew series to the top. It's been a long time since I've had this kind of pleasure while playing a racing game. I'm very happy that Ubisoft Ivory Tower has finally found a style they feel great about and are delivering great gameplay and atmosphere. I hope that Motorfest will be expanded over the years and provide us with many great racing adventures in the future.

Phantom Liberty pushes Cyberpunk 2077 to a complete experience. It is a phenomenal story that appealed to me more than what the base version of the game offered. A new map section, a graphical upgrade, an improvement in gameplay systems. There is no better time to check out this game than now.

World of Horror successfully blends retro aesthetics, roguelike gameplay and Lovecraft's horror to create a game that is both nostalgic and uniquely modern. The game's commitment to its theme, combined with striking visuals and immersive sound, sets it apart in the indie horror genre.

Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is one of the best metroidvanias on the market. The Prince has returned in beautiful style, and I hope it reaches the tastes of other gamers so that we get more of it, not another almost 14-year hiatus.

Stellar Blade is a huge surprise that impressed me quite a bit. The game is a great hybrid of a slasher with light souls-like game elements, which offers brilliant world and level design, a phenomenal combat system and boss skirmishes. When you add to this a perfectly created soundtrack, then you have a recipe for success for now and for the future, as I hope this is not the last time we see the Stellar Blade.

V Rising is one of the best, most polished and also very unique survival games currently on the market. If you have been looking for something that has an extensive progression system, grueling boss fights or interesting exploration, this is the game for you!

Night Springs is a great yet absurd look at Remedy's connected universe. The expansion allows us to experience a whole range of different emotions and delivers it in the best possible style. I really regret that we only got three episodes, because they were conducted so brilliantly that I just need more!

Silent Hill 2 from Bloober Team is a phenomenal revamp of the legendary game from Konami. The changes in the presentation of the story, the changes in the gameplay and the entire audio-visual setting blend together perfectly, presenting the definitive version of the foggy city. I hope that the collaboration between Konami and Bloober Team will not end with just this production, because it is clear that Bloober knows what it is doing and understands the brand.

ANTONBLAST jumped out of the blue two years after its kickstarter campaign and definitely showed what it was capable of. It is a great platformer game in the style of the Wario Land series, which presents this gameplay model in its own style, while not being afraid to take risky directions. Without a doubt, this is one of the best platformer games of this year.

All in all, Marvel Rivals is a massive success. Already at this stage the game is very enjoyable to play and after each completed match you want to click again to search for the next one. The full transparency of the developers and the presentation of plans for the future definitely fuels players with optimism, and may it stay that way forever.

Penitent One is back, and he's back in a big way in the sequel to one of the most interesting indie titles of recent years. Blasphemous 2 was quite a surprise when the game was announced earlier this year, as it seemed its predecessor wasn't that long ago. The sequel, however, does everything better than its predecessor, artistically, gameplay-wise and also in terms of overall atmosphere.

Fort Solis presented itself very well for a debut game from a new studio. This game is something I would love to play on a cinema screen, because lately, no other game has given me such a cinematic experience.
