Agents of Mayhem can be a fun experience if you ignore some of the repetition it carries and embrace its silliness.
One of the best formula one racing simulator that is currently available on the market. Codemasters have managed to outdo their own work.
Some interesting story moments and a fantastic performance by Rutger Haur manages to elevate Observer from a medicore to decent experience.
The story is addictive and keeps you at the edge of the seat. The general exploration and content is a step back from Yakuza 0 but the game is still a blast to play if you interested in more Yakuza games.
Sonia Mania is a refreshing attempt to bring the spotlight back on 2D Sonic games. It easily rivals the original Sonic trilogy in term of the level design and boss fights.
Zero Time Dilemma is a fairly decent port for the PS4. It features slightly revamped visuals but still suffers from the same awkward animation and a slow paced story that will take a while to properly set up.
Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice is an extremely well written game with a great story lore and challenging combat system. The only thing that it lacks is a good puzzle design otherwise Hellblade offers an experience that should easily rival a big blockbuster game.
Despite carrying a steep difficulty curve, LawBreakers is a blast to play once you manage to master the gameplay. The net code is also excellent for a multiplayer shooter resulting in a smooth experience overall.
There is a certain charm in attempting stealth in Shadow Tactics and with its focus on tactical aspects of combat, the story unforuately takes a backseat to the gameplay.
This is the second collection of Mega Man games so it doesn't really manage to look as appealing as the first time, but the games that are included in this Legacy Collection are still extremely fun on their own.
Overcooked: Special Edition is a challenging but extremely fun game that gets better as you add more people to the mix. It holds a certain charm that is hard to find in other co-op games with focus on team-based gameplay.
Cave Story+ is arguably one of the best metroidvania game and despite having released years ago, it still holds up very well even today.
Bulb Boy manages to surprise and even terrify with its gorgeous visual style that presents a world full of horror and terrible creatures.
There is a lot to explore in Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles and the game is aesthetically pleasing to look at, but despite this, it suffers from a lack of sense of progression and repetitive gameplay which ultimately hurts the overall appeal of the game.
Despite having a charming art style, the combat can feel underwhelming. Still as the first effort by a small independent team, the game is highly polished and offers an enjoyable experience on the Nintendo Switch.
It is rare to see co-op games these days especially one which also fully integrates puzzle aspects into the mix, thankfully Death Squared is aiming to be one of these, and it feels fresh and innovative in the current gaming landscape.
An intriguing story premise and refreshing fast paced combat keeps Accel World vs. Sword Art Online from becoming another dull action RPG.
The Zodiac Age basically takes many of the issues with the original Final Fantasy XII and presents a polished perfect version of them. It is also the first time we can play the International Zodiac Job System version of Final Fantasy XII.
While not offering the same thrilling story and memorable cast of characters, Ultra Despair Girls is a fun spin-off based on the popular Danganronpa series that is somewhat held back by its gameplay.
Final Fantasy XIV: Stormblood is one of the best expansion for an MMO RPG. It already builds on a fantastic base game to continue the journey with it narrative while introducing new gameplay features and playable classes.
