Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection is a rather underwhelming package. It adds little to two already fantastic games, but what little improvements it does add (like upscaled textures and support for modern hardware) are nice to have.
While the investigation aspect may fall a little short, The Thaumaturge is saved by excellent writing and characters. Not to mention a deeply involved combat and upgrade system. (Review Policy)
Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley is a cozy game that brings something new to the table, but leaves you wanting more once the journey ends. (Review Policy)
Another installment of a satisfying yearly franchise fails to be beset by fatigue, but instead, the greed that tries to make everything else suffer alongside it.
Nightdive has put considerable effort into making Star Wars: Dark Forces Remaster a smooth and playable experience. With enhanced visuals and more, Dark Forces' level design and gunplay from 1995 holds up surprisingly well.
Wrath: Aeon of Ruin's gunplay is tight and fast-paced, but it doesn't stand out with mediocre level design, low enemy variety, and overall aesthetic.
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth carries on the torch from Remake and delivers another incredible experience. The world of FFVII comes alive as you venture across it with Cloud and his party. Watching the story play out with gorgeous graphics and fantastic acting elevates the entire experience. This is a must play for Final Fantasy fans.
Bandle Tale offers a unique cozy experience that anyone can enjoy, League of Legends fan or not. It's got a great story and fun dialogue that breathes life into Bandle City, and it's easy to pick up and play for anyone. (Review Policy)
Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is underwhelming as an action RPG, but is a must-play thanks to solid character drama and challenging moral decisions.
Lysfanga: The Time Shift Warrior blends together the puzzle and action genres, creating something that feels fun, fresh, and unique. Unfortunately, it's a little let down by aimless moments of meandering and a weak story.
Granblue Fantasy: Relink is an exceptional game that captures the essence of the series wonderfully. With tons of characters to play and a hearty endgame to dive into, Granblue Fantasy: Relink will have you coming back for more.
Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy is here for the modern age, and although not perfect, it’s an accessible way to experience the series for years to come.
Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is a competent, action-packed metroidvania that mostly balances the rule of cool with exciting combat and responsive platforming. If you like over-the-top shonen anime, it’s worth checking out for the boss fights alone.
Kingpin: Reloaded is a remaster gone wrong. With unpredictable performance issues, terrible AI, and barely improved visuals, it's hard to suggest this game for anyone at the moment. (Review Policy)
House Flipper 2 keeps a similar formula to the first game, but with upgraded graphics, frame story, and voice acting, keeps it feeling fresh (Review Policy)
With a story that follows predictable beats, mechanics that provide zero gameplay benefit, and murky visuals, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora delivers an extremely underwhelming experience. PC players be warned of many technical issues.
Arizona Sunshine 2 is an A-grade VR shooter with a B-movie plot. The main character isn’t that loveable, but the gunplay sure is. It’s worth playing for the action alone—you just might cringe every now and then.
Against the Storm is a rich and immersive roguelite city builder that's chock full of quality content.
Great for both Citybuilder Noobs and Experts, SteamWorld Build offers a highly-replayable game with multiple maps and difficulties for players to take on.
