Escape Simulator 2 is the perfect sequel: it feels familiar yet very ambitious. It improves on the original's formula, makes it bigger, and adds more depth to the puzzles without making them harder to solve. The game is now a full package for both puzzle fans and casual explorers. It has larger maps, cooperative play for up to 8 players, and a better level editor.
Slots & Daggers is a deceptively simple but deeply engaging slot machine roguelite that succeeds by blending chance-driven gameplay with strategic depth and satisfying progression.
Painkiller's reimagining is a complicated beast. It's not a perfect homage to the original, nor is it meant to be. Painkiller is still worth checking out if you take nostalgia out of the equation, and I will recommend it even if I can't particularly say it with a clear conscience.
In Jurassic World Evolution 3, a park management simulation is transformed into a living, breathing ecosystem—something its predecessors only alluded to. A genuinely personalized Jurassic Park is finally a reality because of the addition of baby dinosaurs, realistic behavior, and modular construction tools.
Farthest Frontier is great for everyone, whether you've played Banished and Anno before or are just looking for the fantasy Manor Lords alluded to. It's hard, demanding, and often irritating, but it's also generous, engaging, and worth every hour you spend getting your small community through another harsh winter. This city-builder has compassion, unlike so many others.
Once Upon A KATAMARI's general strengths make up for small problems like sometimes wonky camera angles or short sections that repeat themselves. The music is lovely, the graphics are bright and fun, and the gameplay is easy enough for newcomers to understand but complex enough to test longtime fans. Even after many years, One Thousand and One Nights illustrates that the series can still be fun, interesting, and inspire innovation.
Onirism is a must-play for fans of imaginative indie shooters or vintage 3D platformers. It provides a sense of exploration that is becoming increasingly rare in today's glossy, formulaic gaming world. Players are enticed to explore Crearia's next gateway because, despite its occasional blunders, it does so with charm and zeal.
Hot Wheels Let's Race: Ultimate Speed isn't a complex or difficult racing simulation, but it doesn't have to be. Its accessibility and outrageous songs are what make it so appealing. It is a lighthearted homage to the Netflix series and the Hot Wheels brand.
Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted doesn't change anything, and it doesn't have to. It's a love letter to one of the best strategy games ever made, remade with care and just enough newness to make it feel like it matters again. It's not perfect; the graphics aren't consistent, and the remake isn't quite right.
Tormented Souls 2 doesn't follow the latest fads. It doesn't want to be a horror movie or a "streamer jump-scare" machine. It's a love letter to a time long forgotten. The game respects you enough to let you try, fail, and finally win.
Double Dragon Revive is a good beat 'em up that lets you try new things and brings back memories. There are some problems with the revival, but fans of the type should still go. It fits well with newer games like Absolum and Marvel Cosmic Invasion, offering an old-school yet updated take on a famous series.
Dispatch is ambitious without going too far, polished without seeming dull, and most importantly, it's a "dispatch" that's worth every cent you spend on it (sorry for making that pun again). AdHoc has created something that pays tribute to Telltale while still making its own way. The game is both fun and emotionally moving.
Éalú is an amazing first game. It's a handmade stop-motion game that blends beauty with an emotional storyline. It goes against the grain of traditional game design by prioritizing texture, movement, and visual narrative over dialogue or digital perfection.
Ninja Gaiden 4 is the game that fans have been waiting for over ten years. It remembers what made the series great: the never-ending difficulty, the graceful violence, and the need to be perfect. Then it adds a modern touch.
Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 is a contradiction: it's a game with a lot of power but no purpose, a lot of style but not enough substance. It's not a disaster, but it's not the great return that fans were hoping for either.
Keeper isn't just another independent experiment; it's a "meditation on existence." It's about what's left over when everything else is gone. The lighthouse and the bird's journey show how we long for meaning and fight to move forward even when things are unstable.
Fellowship is a game that feels like the next step in the growth of the MMO dungeon. It's based on the best parts of the genre. It's quick, easy to use, and made so that people can work together. Every run feels like a small raid; it requires attention and rewards mastery. But it's also a game that sometimes feels unfinished. The combat could use more impact, the loot needs more interesting items, and there should be more long-term hooks for growth.
Yooka-Replaylee is the game that Playtonic always wanted to make. It takes the heart and soul of the first Yooka-Laylee and builds on it with what we know now. The controls are sharper, the exploration is smoother, the worlds are denser, and the progression is more satisfying.
Ys vs. Trails in the Sky: Alternative Saga isn't a big-budget remake or a complicated fighting system for esports. It's a party. A time capsule from 2010 that fans who grew up with Adol's adventures and Estelle's journeys through Liberl will love.
Pokémon Legends: Z-A is more than just a book in the series. It is a complete transformation. It demonstrates how, even after thirty years, Pokémon can still astound you.
