If you enjoy games like Human: Fall Flat and Goat Simulator and are looking for a casual game to play with friends and family, Totally Reliable Delivery Service will be a great fit for you.
There are certainly worse roguelike shooters on the market, but HyperParasite still needs some polish.
"Resident Evil 3 is, unsurprisingly, a high-quality remake that is still a must-play for horror fans everywhere."
If you are a returning fan than I can also wholeheartedly recommend getting this version, there is enough new content and improvements to warrant revisiting, especially if it has been a while since you last played it.
You’ll likely be too busy kicking butt to notice every visual discrepancy, and at the end of the day it’s most important that a game is fun, not pretty.
Half-Life: Alyx is the perfect example of the best Virtual Reality can be. After years of what felt like nothing more than tech demos or ports, this game has arrived to show everyone how it’s done.
One Step from Eden is enjoyable. It’s also one of the most challenging games I’ve played in a while.
Avoid if you’re looking for a deep and engaging story, but definitely check it out if you’re starved for that old-fashioned grid RPG action.
To some “best sports game” may seem oxymoronic. In truth, within the first hour I had been about as impressed as this game could make me.
"... if you want a relaxing lifestyle experience that’ll last you years, I can’t recommend this enough."
Very few games are able to make me feel as powerful as this one does. So bust out you gun, sharpen your blade, and get ready to wipe demon juice off the soles of your feet.
It’s the whole package, pressed up against skin-tight spandex. Suit yourself up and hold on, because this game gets an A+ (ULTRAAAAAAA)!
If you enjoy games set in a layered universe and with an emotional story, Ori and the Will of the Wisps is not to be missed. With a gorgeous soundtrack and setting, this game is sure to sweep you off your feet.
While newcomers may certainly find it intimidating, Nioh 2 is a confident sequel that, in a year full of exciting game releases, commands your attention and won’t let it go easily.
Whether you want to learn Japanese or not, I would recommend Kana Quest. Just make sure you play with earphones for a taste of those chilled out jams.
...for those like myself who don’t know much about this world, I’d say it won’t pack enough punch for you to commit.
...somewhat tedious endgame dungeons and overall repetitive dungeon-crawling probably won’t win over anyone who has previously not found the spin-off series compelling.
...while I like it at times, I’m left feeling unsatisfied. More unsatisfied than a game has made me feel for quite some time.
Bloodroots isn’t overly long but the game length was more than satisfying. There’s a story that will carry you through the game but it certainly isn’t the most important or noteworthy element of the experience. Impressively, Bloodroots mixes things up as you play with boss fights or sections of game that differ from what came before it. I particularly enjoyed the moments where the game would spice things up, alter the perspective, or change up the playing field to keep things fresh and stylishly new.
The game is gorgeous to look at with wonderful pre-rendered backgrounds and character portraits, and the story kept me wanting to play so I could learn more. The farming feels a little bare-bones, although the time you spend out exploring dungeons makes the game still very engaging.
