VGChartz's Reviews
There are some small problems — overlong stages, tedious twin-stick segments, a late-game difficulty spike, and a couple of missed narrative opportunities — but overall this is an enjoyable homage to classics like ActRaiser and Mega Man X.
Between its endlessly creative co-op gameplay and genuine story, It Takes Two is a one-of-a-kind experience.
It wants to be a choose-your-own-adventure movie template while consistently disrespecting player choice. This poisons player investment in a story that rarely elevates to fun B-movie shlock, despite some acting & musical talent.
Lost Words is a heartfelt adventure that’s more interactive storybook than standard game.
Due to the short running time the game never satisfactorily unpacks its story, mechanics, puzzles, or gameplay systems. This is one turnip harvested just a little too soon.
Evil Inside resigns itself to being a cliché-laden homage of P.T.
Somehow, Obsidian managed to create DLC for its decision-based RPG that contains only one meaningful decision and virtually no character specialization, so what we're left with is a watered-down first person shooter add-on that's a letdown on every front.
This humble farmer – for all his faults – deserved a better goodbye.
It's a punishing game with lots of stops and starts, but its production design, world-building, platform-puzzle mechanics, and replay value make it worth playing.
I can’t say that I personally view Rise as the ultimate culmination of years of Monster Hunting progress as some reviewers seem to, but if you’ve enjoyed previous hunting outings then you'll absolutely feel right at home here.
An impressive visual novel with stellar audiovisual design.
In almost every respect, Marvel's Avengers is a confused title with a grinding structure that takes an Infinity War to reach its true Endgame.
Say No! More is one of a kind. It's imaginative, inspiring, and very, very funny. It's also a short, mechanically shallow experience.
If you're looking only for the original Republic Commando campaign, in all its glory, with some enhanced visuals, then go for it... if you're looking for a true remaster or something that might justify double dipping on Switch, you may wish to pass.
Battle Brothers isn't for everyone, but those willing to take the beating will have access to a rewarding game with tons of replay value.
Ancient Gods - Part Two is a step in the right direction, even if id Software did somewhat throw the baby out with the bathwater when it came to balancing.
If you like peaceful, low-stakes simulation gameplay and have a few months to spare, consider relocating to Olive Town.
3 out of 10 surmounts the low bar set by its self-aware title, but this first season may prove too uneven for some ardent adventure fans.
Between the scant content, absent personality, and dry gameplay loop, it's not worth the outrageous fare.
Chris Nordgren and Jordi Roca have captured lightning in a bottle with a highly original game that has the potential to become the next Undertale.
