IOI has done a fabulous job at making a great action-adventure game that just so happens to be wrapped up in James Bond clothing, and all that is expected of it.
Thank You For Your Application has something worthwhile to say, but says it in the least engaging way possible.
Beneath Zero Parades' conspiracies, conditionings, and intelligence networks lies a deeply human story about regret, identity, and the cost of living with your mistakes.
Mina the Hollower is a brilliant example of modern retro design, combining exceptional exploration, satisfying combat, and a wonderfully strange gothic world into one of the year's most memorable adventures.
Life Below lacks the depth of the genre's best, but few strategy games are this calming, beautiful, or thoughtful.
A clever and emotionally sincere puzzle game whose gorgeous clockwork presentation and inventive musical mechanics carry it through occasional stretches of repetition and restraint.
Outbound offers plenty of pretty vistas to virtually photograph, but very little in the way of meaningful gameplay.
Wardrum's literal and figurative beats don't always land, but its unusual blend of genres makes for an experience that's consistently engaging and unlike almost anything else on the market.
Whirlight, while a competent point-and-click, offers little beyond nostalgia for players already devoted to the genre.
A strikingly moody adventure that knows exactly what it wants to feel like, but never fully works as either a game or a story in the way it needs to.
A beautifully staged sci-fi survival story weighed down by repetitive, sometimes awkward gameplay.
A clever idea let down by inconsistent design and a punishing difficulty curve, Beyond Words struggles to capture the "one more go" magic it so clearly aims for.
A technical achievement that proves you can build everything - and still have nothing to say.
Docked is a fairly decent simulator, but it ultimately lacks anything to make it interesting for those outside its niche.
Galactic Vault is simple by design, but in a world of bloated titles that simplicity works to its benefit - making it the perfect after-work game.
Aether & Iron may be blunt and occasionally cliché, but its phenomenal writing makes it one of the strongest Disco-likes yet.
Within a formulaic genre, Dragonkin manages to carve out enough depth and variety to keep its claws in you.
Esoteric Ebb borrows liberally from Disco Elysium, and both because of and in spite of that, it's one of the finest CRPGs ever made.
Nioh 3 is a must-have for all fans of Team Ninja and previous Nioh games. However, if you're not yet a fan nothing here will change that.
Inventive, satisfying, and occasionally clunky, Styx: Blades of Greed scratches that stealthing itch better than most.
