VGChartz's Reviews
Shiftlings succeeds more often than it fails at what it sets out to do, which is be a simple, relaxing, and funny game that one can pick up and enjoy.
Dragon Ball FighterZ feels like a solid first draft ripe for expansion and refinement.
It's packed with content and fun to play, just weighed down by the process of farming stars.
Gifted with an unforgettable atmosphere, Death Mark has all the qualities to be a champion of fear on both the PSVita and PS4.
The Mind's Eclipse is a fantastic visual novel but a weak adventure game.
There is an abundance of pixel-art platformers on the market today, many of them indistinguishable from one another, but Sandberg's game stands out.
Sits in a weird middle-ground between lazy exploration and objective-based flying, without fulfilling the accessibility of the former or the difficulty of the latter.

The heart and soul of the original Tokyo Xanadu is alive and well, buttressed with new characters, dungeons, monsters, features, and technology.

There are hundreds of stages, scores of collectibles, and over a dozen uniquely-themed levels in this game. But will you survive long enough to see them all?
While it doesn't bear the Trine name, Nine Parchments represents the best of that series: fun co-op action and high production values.
Bring your creativity, your imagination, and a friend if you can. Then prepare yourself for a lot of fun, a lot of freedom, and, due to some wobbly controls, a fair dose of frustration.
Ultimately, Super Lucky’s Tale is too conservative to be much more than good, especially when combined with some of its more questionable design choices.
Ultimately, it's a grab bag of gameplay conceits never fully fleshed out. There are high points — boss battles and secret levels among them — but not enough to elevate it above others in the genre.
It's a welcome, unexpected addition to an already substantial experience, and represents a refreshing change of scenery.
Call of Duty: WWII feels like the mass market play-it-safe product that it is rather than a sincere attempt to revitalize the franchise.
Mantis Burn Racing is the latest member of the "don't judge a book by its cover" club.
