For a VR title, Tentacular has the right length of gameplay and is a heartfelt, lovingly designed indie project that I had a lot of fun with in the seven hours of play. If you want to blow stuff up, fire rockets, or just stack blocks, you'll definitely get your money's worth. Tentacular remains varied and always provides new challenges.

Flying Wild Hog has gone overboard with complexity reduction - and sacrificed a great deal of Shadow Warrior's mojo in its return to the series' roots. Although the game isn't even half as long as its predecessors, it wears out noticeably after just three hours, having lost the originality of its brand mark katana, chi powers and weapon variety.

I liked Wanderer a lot. It mixes many strengths of other VR games with many ideas of its own. An interesting pastime with challenges as well as action elements.

Chorus can be a lot of fun, but too often gets in its own way. When I sweep through huge frigates with precise drifts while simultaneously shooting power relays and turrets, it holds a sense of absolute superiority and skill. Unfortunately, this freedom is too often taken away from me and replaced with boring dialogue. Essential features like moving my ship horizontally and vertically or selling old equipment at the merchant are completely missing. In addition, there are sections of uninteresting story that can't be skipped. So I'm kept in an empty room even longer, although I just want to fly, explore the great environments and go hunting. The numerous, diverse enemies and the fabulous drift system keep the combat fresh and crisp, even towards the end of the 14-hour campaign.

Far Cry 6 can be saved under familiar fare throughout. Those who like the series and have already been to Far Cry 3, Kyrat in the Himalayas (FC4) or the fictional Hope County (FC5) will immediately feel at home with everything the developers throw at you. Far Cry 6 is a good open-world shooter with a massive, coherent arsenal and a pleasantly familiar gameplay loop - but nothing more. The entertainment is certain, but you shouldn't expect any flights of fancy.

On the one hand, there are the very handsome graphics with great animations and a great voice acting. But then there are the repetitive passages and the problems with "finding your way", even though there are fortunately no dead ends. The decision will probably come down to gameplay and story. Those looking for fast-paced gameplay and unprecedented story will probably not be happy with Famicom Detective Club. However, if you're not averse to visual novels in general and can relate to scary stories from the 80s and 90s, you should definitely give the game bundle a chance.

NEO: The World Ends With You is both a sequel and a "reset", a worthy comeback of one of the most offbeat JRPGs and a game that keeps you hooked to the screen for a long time with its eccentric style, rhythmic battles, motivating "gotta catch 'em all" flair and great soundtrack - even if it can't shake off some long known problems.

Another day, another loop, and with each new timeloop, Deathloop has me even more impressed. This Murder Puzzle on Blackreef is a highly engaging sandbox for experimental players, and a surprisingly complex detective game with its heart in the right place and the loop in every last detail of its DNA.

Biomutant certainly has its moments. Unfortunately, many bugs, unbalanced fights, and the sheer abundance of systems always give the little rodent a leg up. Many things seem monotonous, the tribal fights get boring after the second round and those who always keep their distance can even defeat the strongest "Lupa Lupin". In addition, there is the storyteller, who has too little to say on the one hand and far too much to say on the other. Biomutant definitely has potential to be much more entertaining. It seems as if the developers simply put more on the plate than they could actually squeeze out. It's a shame, because the little ball of yarn has grown on me a bit, despite a few quirks.

The wild mix from the previous games and the more action-packed approach make for a high replay value, which is why the game can be recommended almost without reservation.

If you like calm management simulations and don't need enemy units that shoot up your laboriously built settlements, you'll certainly be in good hands here.

The dull gameplay, the same old fights, and the absolute overabundance of enemy waves took the fun out of Necromunda: Hired Gun for me relatively early on. The premise looked good, the inspiration of the developers is clear, but the execution leaves obvious flaws. Even though the arenas and levels are beautifully designed and could vary so much despite being permanently underground, it's the gameplay in particular that makes the agile shooter and thus breaks its neck.

Light and shadow are close together in Lost Words: it tells a touching and tangible story of a young girl's life and embeds it in a gorgeous diary style - but then gets lost in a superfluous and boring sub-story that makes half of the game seem like filler.
