Though I adored all the little time-wasters in the game and flying through space, it just wouldn’t be what it is without that carefully crafted country rock music in the background,
...offers new and seasoned players a vast universe full of challenges to sink their teeth into.
DARQ certainly doesn't overstay its welcome, presenting a short and concise experience. But when is short too short?
...a celebration of 80's horror nostalgia and has enough intriguing elements to make it worthwhile.
...interesting maps and epic military adventures from older titles, while building on the newer aspects we’ve come to expect from the 3DS games.
...a game free of pretence, it just wants to take your favourite characters and smash them all together like a joyful child.
...a charming and enjoyable open-world creation game that is enjoyable for RPG and crafting fans alike.
...see yourself falling in love with a strange, charming, colour-filled roller-coaster of a game...
The Sinking City doesn't quite hit any of the marks it tried for, but fans of the Eldritch might still find a lot to love here.
Super Mario Maker 2 lets you create almost anything you can imagine, and looks great doing it too. Every level is a chance to challenge yourself and learn something new!
Samurai Shodown doesn't try to appeal to everyone, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing.
...a modern game in the spirit of the post-Symphony of the Night Castlevania titles, you can't do much better than this.
...doesn't really bring anything new to the table. It's enjoyable enough, but is mostly uninspired.
PixARK is a very complicated game that allows almost complete freedom, but at a cost.
...With some fixes the game’s aspirations may yet shine through and make this at least a decent campy exploration in the horror genre some time in the future. For now at least, players can only help but wonder what could’ve been.
With interesting mechanics and ruthless enemies, Unconquered will be a great experience for strategy game fiends and Conan fans alike.
Pathologic 2’s outstanding story and thought-provoking journey suffer from outdated execution.
...complex boss fights, a quirky story to uncover and lots of secrets to find.
It’s written extremely well, but I’m sure some players will be frustrated when the game doesn’t answer some of the questions that it raises.
...after such a long wait between episode 2 and 3 it feels like there should have been more on offer here
