Guardian's Reviews
Lovingly remade, this game is no longer the trailblazer it once was, but there is an enduring majesty to the design of its space-station setting
A derivative, uninteresting and fundamentally broken stealth action adventure that fails to capture anything interesting about Tolkien's fiction
The open world racer where beautiful environments are crammed with delightfully destructible Lego goodies, will have kids smiling while they play
Occasionally a game comes along that makes you look at life in a whole new way. This glorious, hilarious, utterly absorbing Zelda instalment is one of them
Despite occasional flourishes, Arkane's latest game feels fundamentally at odds with itself
Respawn Entertainment's sequel is a huge improvement over Jedi: Fallen Order, and a virtual blockbuster without compromise
This visual novel spins a passable yarn in a noirish atmosphere, but would benefit from more space to explore it
Hacking at the undead in post-apocalyptic LA is a lot of fun, but the game's delayed release has made it sluggish and limited
The controls can be tough to get the hang of, but the visuals are stunning, the commentary impressive and the play itself gives you all the challenge and realism you could want
Set in an Amazon-like fulfilment centre, this satirical adventure has interesting ideas but fails to adequately explore them
You solve puzzles, then create the songs, in this tactile puzzle game spanning genres and instruments, from Ethiopian jazz to krautrock
The rewarding environmental restoration game plays like a puzzle and is satisfyingly simple
Plumbing the depths of our fear of the ocean, this clever and compelling video game will suck you in for hours at a time

This reimagining includes all the design knowledge of the whole series, from the awkward shuffling tension of the first version to the gory horror of Resident Evil 7
This cutesy origin tale replaces the guns and sex appeal of the original action series with fairies and cuddly toys
The original was originally launched on Wii 15 years ago and it still offers a highly atmospheric adventure with many moments of fear and dread
This colourful multiplayer platformer was largely ignored when it first came out in 2011 – is it worth a second look?
This could have been a great fish-out-of-water experience, but it's let down by patronising explanations and clunky gameplay.
This wonderfully weird creature-hunter has an unending supply of memorably unhinged, massive foes; it may not be an all-timer but it's fun while you're fighting
