A pretty but average experience, Summer in Mara fails to set the world on fire due to some major gameplay flaws that fail to guide the player in even the most basic ways.
Writing that's worth wincing at does little to drag down a hyper-relaxing and educational diving game. Beyond Blue lets you take a breath in a medium packed with games that try their hardest to make your blood pressure skyrocket.
The Last Of Us Part II is a brutal, purposeful sequel designed to defy popular appeal. Instead it walks a thornier narrative path, even if the gameplay feels largely unchanged from its predecessor.
Fans of point and click adventures may enjoy Possession 1881, but like a talking doll sitting on the floor of an empty room, the average gamer will likely prefer to keep their distance.
Total Tank Simulator could've been something great, but because it lacks the depth of strategy games and the charm of parody battle simulators, it offers little more than whatever enjoyment can be found in sending fifty Soviet war bears into battle against a hoard of German conscripts.
Maneater may delight some with its appeal to the player's schadenfreude and the quirkiness of playing as a shark, but its simplicity and antiquated nature will leave many wishing for a game that was more evolved.
A Fold Apart is a short, touching puzzler with a timely message at its heart.
A few frustrating puzzles aren't enough to drag down a fantastic puzzler buoyed by lovely graphics and near flawless gameplay.
If Found... is a brief, distinctive, and deeply effective tale that will make you nostalgic for and reflect on some of the more troubling times of your youth. While its lack of interactivity may make it too niche for some, it is the perfect story for an afternoon in quarantine.
It definitely has its moments, but Someday You'll Return hides its charms behind hours of mindless puzzles and unnecessary filler.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons provides a level of freedom unheard of in most titles, leaving players the opportunity to do whatever they want in any given day, and despite a few bumps they succeed spectacularly in letting you create your own experience.
SnowRunner's core gameplay is unique and satisfying, but there are too many simple design flaws to make the game anything more than Death Stranding without the intrigue.
As this sort of game always did, it remains a fairly pointless one-player experience that comes alive when playing with a friend or two. For nostalgic fans of the genre, it will serve up a treat, albeit one that doesn't last all that long.
Ash of Gods: Redemption's visual flair and varied narrative choices aren't enough to keep a keep its tedious battle system and baffling writing afloat.
A fun family game, or something to play post-pub with your mates (ah, those were the pre-lockdown days), this might put an end to friends suddenly being busy if you ask them to help you move house.
ITTA feels like a game made for the hardcore, bullet-hell obsessives out there that's friendly for less hardcore players who want to experience the story. It's short, and not quite perfect on Switch, but it's a strong game nonetheless.
Receiver 2 is the only game that properly simulates how firearms work while also offering a campy story and nice-looking visuals.
Help Will Come Tomorrow is a video game instead of a survival experience, which is fine provided that players aren't looking for anything deeper than something to kill a bit of time.
Although marred by poor acting and inconsistent writing, Cloudpunk is visually and audibly impressive. Take things slow and you'll get the best experience out of it.
MotoGP 20 is a top notch recreation of one of the fastest series on two wheels. The career mode is entertaining, especially if you decide to take on being a new team. Visually stunning, audibly arresting and just downright fun to play when you get the hang of it, MotoGP 20 is a must for any serious fan of the sport.
