VGChartz's Reviews
Aspiring game makers will spend hours at a time designing the perfect levels, and those kids-at-heart who grew up with Super Mario will get the chance to live out a fantasy 30 years in the making.
With its cutesy story, significant customization options, and rock-solid co-op gameplay, Lovers is absolutely worth playing.
Zombie Vikings' vast array of unique weapons and different playable characters combines to create an enjoyable old-school romp through a twisted Viking epic.
In the end, in spite of some control and gameplay issues, it's easy to see why Ubisoft developers fell under the spell of Grow Home. The alien world is verdant and alive, the sense of progress and discovery intoxicating, and the hero B.U.D. truly lovable.
Regardless of some pacing problems and uneven gameplay, Super Time Force Ultra has a lot to offer, including interesting level design, a silly sense of humor, and plenty of secret characters.
Despite limited game modes, it is easy to learn while at the same time offers a deep, strategic, and satisfying experience.
On a console known for its platformers and local multiplayer options, it's genuinely impressive how Runbow manages to stand out among the crowd.
The multi-character adventure style of gaming that was spearheaded by Heavy Rain is a perfect fit for the slasher/horror genre, and few games, or media experiences in general, are as intense.
In some respects Volume is a refreshingly simple take on a pure stealth title. It really does nail the stealth mechanics, and although short it offers a wealth of replayability thanks to an extensive level editor and community-made levels.
Gears of War: Ultimate Edition is a pleasant throwback but the experience feels a bit hollow.
Hopefully the highly hinted at sequel will shore up some of GALAK-Z's weaknesses - namely lack of narrative closure and an unrefined difficulty curve - and I'll be able to more wholeheartedly recommended it.
Everybody's Gone to the Rapture is an absolutely stunning game, but once your initial awe for the visuals begins to fade all you're left with is a drawn-out narrative that has you wandering from one story set-piece to another.
While Legend of Kay is improved technically, its production values, mechanics, and camera are still stuck in an uncomfortable past.
Character inconsistencies and story dead-ends mar an otherwise superb narrative series that is starting to really pay off.
Its value proposition is almost unrivalled and the extra features add a twist of modernity to what could have easily been a quick cash grab collection.
Beyond Eyes is a great learning tool, but don't expect to be entertained.
Anyone looking for a comprehensive and complex RPG or strategy game might end up disappointed with Eisenwald. Those in the mood for a medieval adventure with a smart dose of tactical battles, morality choices, and RPG elements, however, will find a lot to like.
Those who need a strong narrative or a lengthy, replayable experience will end up being disappointed, but as a platformer with powerful music and unique visuals it's well worth adding to your wishlist.
For as fantastic as Rocket League can be, it's a tough road to tread, and the higher-than-standard price could be all for naught if you don't tough it out and eventually come to appreciate it in all its glory.
Tachyon Project is a great arcade twin-stick shooter that feels like a natural evolution of the genre. The game handles well and features some nicely varied enemy types, but it's also far from flawless.
