Mar 29, 2019

A beautiful, hand-crafted action-adventure experience with challenging combat, rewarding exploration and an intriguing story.

Apart from some minor repetitive issues throughout the game, including endgame content of which I haven’t managed to explore it all, it seems that Ubisoft has learned a number of important lessons from the first game

Yoshi's Crafted World is a terrifically simple platformer with a gorgeous art style and a focus on exploration over challenging gameplay

A beautiful game marred by repetition yet incredibly playable.

4.5 / 5.0 - APE OUT
Mar 20, 2019

Still, if you are a fan of puzzlers and want something different, Ape Out is a terrific diversion. While you may only play it for a few weeks (it's not a very long game), you're going to have a blast doing it.

Beat Cop is a game that still works and it works well!

1.8 / 5.0 - Crimson Keep
Mar 14, 2019

I generally try to give every game, the benefit of the doubt, firmly believing that not every game, is going to be for everyone, others may thrive on this sort of hardcore difficulty, I do not.

3.5 / 5.0 - Dead or Alive 6
Mar 14, 2019

DoA 6 offers fast and frantic fighting gameplay wrapped up in its signature sex appeal to deliver a solid entry in the series - but it lacks single-player and online content to match its contemporaries in the genre and truly shine.

5 / 5.0 - Truberbrook
Mar 14, 2019

If you enjoyed the Kings Quest games and similar titles, you will enjoy Trüberbrook. Hands down, this is a surprising slam dunk. It's a great story, with twists, humour, problem solving, adventure and mystery. There is also a choice you make at the end, which I suspect provides two endings, so it's likely to warrant a second play through for this, but you would want to wait a bit between, to appreciate it again.

4.4 / 5.0 - Devil May Cry 5
Mar 11, 2019

If badass characters dishing out stylish beatings on demonic baddies are your thing, then Devil May Cry is for you. So dive into hell with me and together lets earn some sweet ranks while we finesse some demons back into the underworld.

Final Fantasy IX is a fantastic game with an average port. The price is steep for a 20 year old game with no major upgrades. But once you start playing you won't be able to put it down.

3.5 / 5.0 - Dirt Rally 2.0
Mar 5, 2019

Although it may be enjoyable for the dedicated rally fan, the current lack of content may not be enough to keep the casual racer playing for more than several hours.

3 / 5.0 - Anthem
Mar 4, 2019

Anthem offers a solid multiplayer PvE action-shooter experience and exo suit power fantasy dampened by fundamental design problems and loot system inconsistencies.

Civilization VI: Gathering Storm is a great expansion that adds a number of interesting new world-affecting gameplay mechanics.

2.5 / 5.0 - JUMP FORCE
Feb 24, 2019

Jump Force is the perfect example of good intentions with poor execution. I personally feel sorry for diehard fans who were really looking forward to a game that had so much potential. Unfortunately, all anyone got was a box of disappointment and relentless loading times. As a whole, Jump Force comes off half baked and unfulfilling. I honestly wish I had more good things to say about this game but even now I'm hard pressed. The most positive thing I can say about this game is that it could be a starting point for a brand new series of games. Even though this game is in dire need of fixing, I have hopes that redemption can be made with a solid sequel if done right.

My Time At Portia is a decent farming/life sim game with great crafting mechanics and painfully dull characters.

3.5 / 5.0 - ChromaGun VR
Feb 24, 2019

All things said and done, ChromaGun is a solid game with decent puzzle elements. It has it’s flaws but all things said and done is nicely enough executed. It certainly is worth the play for the puzzles alone.

‘Crackdown 3' is everything you'd expect in a sequel. New location, new guns, new abilities, and a few hidden surprises along the way to keep you on your toes.
