A must-play DLC expansion with an impressively hand-crafted new region filled with fun new quests, characters, and lore.
If your kids loved the previous game, My Little Pony: A Zephyr Heights Mystery is an updated and dare I say more enjoyable version that will allow children to become fully immersed in this enjoyable game from start to finish. Controls are well mapped and for the most part, the gaming mechanics are sturdy and require limited parental input. It's a kid game made with respect for the characters and the younger gamer.
On the surface, F1 24 doesn't seem to be all that different from last year's game.
If you can work around the resource supply issue… this is indeed a nice chill little game. It's not overly deep or taxing… but it's kind of nice watching your little town grow into a thriving city and the little fairy tale elements here or there just add another bit of charm to it all. It's not terribly expensive but it's not a huge game either so it's about the right point (but if you're not sure, just wait for a sale). Certainly worth a look if you want a city builder that's a bit less stressful and has some mild fantasy elements.
For the most part, Crown Wars: The Black Knight is a disappointing addition for a genre crying out for quality entries.
Wizardry Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlock is a fun walk down memory lane which successfully brings the original game in its entirety with updated graphics and slightly tweaked gameplay. Given that, this is not a remake of Wizardry but rather a remaster. Definitely for the gamer who is seeking that old school atmosphere without the old school graphics.
One Rabbit hole you'll want to take a trip down.
A brilliant sequel that's bound to be doing the rounds come awards season.
A solid console port for an absolute masterclass in how to remake a classic.
This all probably sounds a lot like Two Point at this point, and while I don't think it's entirely fair to say that Galacticare is just Two Point Hospital in space, it isn't that far from the truth. I don't think that's a bad thing either.
A creative merge of survival simulation, turn-based combat and tactical RPG.
Ultimately, if you’re a fan of the management simulation aspects of Wartales or like the mercantile lifestyle path especially, the tavern management gameplay systems that this expansion introduces may be for you. Highly recommended.
Masters of Light is definitely entertaining and uses its VR functions in creative ways. Fast thinking on your toes gameplay and combat encounters with continuously moving enemies makes you use your powers in a calculated and deliberate fashion. You never feel like you are in danger with unimposing opponents, but that mixed with the fun gameplay make it that much easier to dive back into the light if you ever get a game over. The frail story leaves you unsatisfied and jittery controls can cause some immediate issues with how well you are performing in a level, but the feedback of the tacit sounds and flow of the music keeps you moving and grooving throughout your galaxy hopping adventure. Given the subject manner, I wish Masters of Light was able to deliver another layer of tenacity. Even so, Masters of Light displays an exciting way to enter the VR space by giving you fun to use light powers that let you liberate the stars from the clutches of darkness.
A great one day player for the busy gamer. A story that is captivating and enthralling with a unique ending.
If you're undecided, go out and check the demo out for Stellar Blade but if you're seeking a challenging yet rewarding third person action game, this title hits the mark and more than likely Game of the Year!
A fantastic combination of horror, combat and puzzle solving elements, Withering Rooms is one nightmare that you may not wish to wake from!
The Developers definitely succeed at creating a fun game for younger gamers, especially if they are fans of PJ Masks because everything is there. Additionally the control mechanics are well mapped on the Xbox Series controller that immediately had our younger player picking up the controller and start playing. In the end, PJ Masks Power Heroes Mighty Alliance is a sturdy platformer with a few different gaming genres thrown into the 2D platformer mix that offers gameplay targetted for kids, unlike some crash grabs out there.
Alan Wake II is the reincarnation of art in video games.
Minishoot' Adventures is a standout that combines the best elements of two beloved genres into a cohesive and engaging experience. With its dynamic gameplay, stunning visuals, and wealth of content, it's no surprise that Minishoot' has the potential to be one of the top games of the year in 2024. Whether you're a fan of Bullet Hell shooters, The Legend of Zelda, or simply enjoy well-crafted games, Minishoot' Adventures is a must-play experience that shouldn't be missed.
Children of the Sun is a dark, wonderfully innovative take on the now-cliched outpost clearing of many open-world games. It's incredibly satisfying when a plan all comes together and cultist after cultist falls to a perfectly executed series of meticulously aimed shots.
