Rock, Paper, Shotgun's Reviews
Even incomplete, this huge early access ARPG is a gem, with a unique and flexible skill system and compelling world.
A rich roguelike RPG so deep you will need to bring a thousand torches just to get to the bottom of it.
Perhaps one the slickest free to play PVP releases of recent times, allowing Marvelheads or laypeople to hero shoot with frightening levels of choice. Perhaps a bit too much choice, for those who take their competitive games seriously.
A thoughtfully adapted first-person adventure that sees Indy sticking his nose in every corner of its huge open levels, and getting into fist fights at the drop of a hat.
A visually astonishing simulation of real flight in all aspects, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 now accurately recreates the energy-sapping demands of an actual commercial pilot.
A self-described relaxing game about wild swimming, sunk by tedious and ill-explained busywork.
Lovely presentation and quirky emergent elements make this traditional roguelike a real charmer, but feeling at the mercy of fate makes the repetition wear thin a little too quickly.
A pleasant enough free gacha game about dressing up all nice, which will appeal to gacha fans only.
Nightdive have done a great job preserving and uplifting The Thing into a crisp and playable modern offering. It's still a fascinating game, but maybe not quite interesting enough to be worth revisiting.
It's incredibly buggy, but persevere and this survival FPS will reward you with intense shootouts and some wonderfully atmospheric free-roaming.
The side-scrolling shooter transforms from brainless barnstorming to thoughtful grenade tossing in a work of turn-based tactics - but its arcade soul remains intact.
A nostalgic survival horror that's well written and often clever, just bear with its awkward shooting.
A vast fantasy romp whose charming, breezy tone is occasionally threatened by little irritations and ugly stereotypes.
The promise of a wild and wacky water park is hampered by unintuitive menus and fiddly micromanagement in a sequel that removes almost as much as it adds.
Consistently building on a simple set of rules with progressively inventive twists, this detective puzzle game offers up tough but fair head scratchers you'll feel like a genius for solving.
Great God Grove is a weird, whacky and fiercely bold adventure, whose dialogue-vacuum puzzle-solving will suck you in.
A gripping design experiment, a brutal platformer and a calculating social commentary, all in one go.
A predictably masterful expansion which repeatedly reinvents Factorio with each leg of its interplanetary journey.
A single player campaign that offers the usual explosive set pieces, alongside undercover missions with countless tricks lifted from better games.
An action horror game I respect for trying many interesting things, but one I can't recommend by virtue of it sucking my patience dry.
