It's hard to explain, but this ridiculous and technically backward game has something special, something that allows you to fall in love with a fictitious world. However, in order to make sure that you can enjoy this game, you should pass a simple love test for Risen. Are you ready to go to the past? Then at your own risk take a step forward.

Dragon Quest VIII is an amazing JRPG, which has become even better on 3DS thanks to great new features. As a result, we got one of the most beautiful and well-designed JRPGs on the platform, where all aspects work competently, allowing you to enjoy the atmosphere of a fabulous adventure with a company of bright and very memorable characters.

It seems that Batman: The Enemy Within was done by completely different people who returned to poorly written instructions for creating a blockbuster at home.

Despite fan fears, DiRT is still the best rally simulator on the market. The game in particular will appeal to those who waited for the continuation of the main series. We hope that project will be able to expand its userbase and in the future developers will please us with new licenses and really beautiful graphics.

SteamWorld Dig 2 is perfect fit for users of portable gaming devices, such as Nintendo Switch or PlayStation Vita. But game will look great on a big screen TV too.

Dreamfall Chapters on the PS4 can be called "Mighty No. 9 from the world of adventures", which stands in a row with Syberia III. As a result, the project can be recommended only to the largest fans of the original, who are ready to forgive the game for all its shortcomings. Console version of Dreamfall Chapters is one of the most unsuccessful ports and yet another Unity anti-advertising.

Turn10 continues to polish the concept of Forza Motorsport, improving all the elements and increasing the volume and variety of content. The seventh game pleased us with the improved weather, variety of tracks, great simulation and options for deep tuning of the rich car park. It also confidently enters into the new generation of 4K HDR screens, while demonstrating tremendous optimization. In the the next game we would like to see more significant changes in the career department, adequate implementation of Logitech G920 wheel, as well as some other changes, but even so now we have an excellent and - most importantly - addictive game.

Ruiner, despite some small problems, is incredibly addictive, and completely absorbing your attention. And that's a nice surprise.

Unfortunately, a small number of licenses prevent the game from becoming truly perfect, but Pro Evolution Soccer is primarily loved and appreciated for its deep gameplay. And this aspect in PES 2018 is great.

Many bugs in console version and shortcomings cause a slight disappointment. But at the same time Battle Chasers: Nightwar remains an enthralling and strong RPG, which can be even better after all the fixes. In the meantime, the console version is worth playing only if you really miss turn-based battles and fabulous adventures.

Echo is a mixed bag. On the one hand, there is an interesting and well-presented story with an unexpected ending, notable characters and unusual game mechanics. At the same time, all stages are visually similar to each other, mechanics are not deep enough and the set of possibilities is too limited. But still you can try it, if you love the genre.

Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite can be recommended to all fans of the genre, as well as users, who likes noisy gaming parties with friends. Despite the mediocre graphics and weak story campaign, this is an extremely fun game with an excellent combat system and legendary characters.

Codemasters once again tried to update F1, but every year, with new releases, base game becomes more boring, just like real "Formula 1", where one or two teams are fighting for titles. The game needs a fresh look. We hope to see a completely updated physics and more realism in the next one.

A simplified combat system, empty locations and a naive plot for the youngest ones can disappoint the fans of the series. However, less demanding players and beginners in the universe will be able to enjoy great cutscenes, a kind story, an exciting collection of monsters and non-stressing battles with beautiful special attacks.

Mario + Rabbids: The Battle of the Kingdom is one of the most unexpected and beautiful games of the year, which carries with it a deep tactical gameplay with the integration of role-playing and adventure elements. If you own a Nintendo Switch, you should buy this game.

White Day: A Labyrinth Named School is an interesting horror, which connects urban legends in the style of Korean horror movies with good puzzles. Annoying factors and some flaws seriously spoil the final impressions, but if you like exploration, reading notes and logical solutions in games, this project will give you a lot of fun.

Dishonored: Death of the Outsider is one of the most emotional and well-developed games of the year, which offers a huge number of opportunities for solving problems, and a really interesting exploration aspect.

Pokken Tournament DX definitely deserves attention. Strange choice of available pokemons, lack of clarity of the picture in TV-mode and forgettable music, of course, disappointed, but deep gameplay mechanics along with a beautiful special attacks can quite quickly grab you and make you return to the game again and again.

Destiny 2 fixes most problems of the first game and becomes number one project for fans of deep and complex cooperative experiences on modern consoles. The game largely met our expectations, and in some aspects even surpassed them. And although developers promised more drama and epic in the main story, campaign satisfied us rather than disappointed. In many respects due to great work with locations and game mechanics, diversity and amazing alien worlds' vistas.
