A strong identity, distinct classes and engaging turn-based fights make it easy to overlook Deep Sky Derelicts' endgame woes.
The Council has been establishing new standards for narrative-driven games by providing multiple paths linked together to an upgrade system. The previous episode, Ripples, ended with a massive cliffhanger depending on the player's final choice. Episode 4, Burning Bridges, not only reveals massive secrets but ends with a critical choice that will set the framework for the finale.
The Gardens Between is a well-needed bite of escapism, both for the two protagonists as for the player. With cute and, more importantly, uniquely clever diorama set pieces, this tiny adventure that spans just a few hours feels as innovative as it is refreshing and heartfelt.
Transference doesn't have intense combat or elaborate bosses. Instead, the adventure is about the experience of being in an unknown world that feels wrong. This uncomfortable tone of fragmented memories, environments, and many jump scares to create a surreal horror experience. For so much Transference does well it length and expensive price tag will bother a lot of gamers.
Door Kickers: Action Squad is a loud, violent spin-off.
Lara has survived unbelievable disasters and defeating supernatural and deadly enemies since her return in 2013. Shadow of the Tomb Raider ends this amazing trilogy with a bang. It doesn't try to revolutionize the formula that made the reboot such a hit or make the massive leap that Rise of the Tomb Raider did, but instead combines all the elements found in these 2 adventures while adding small touches to make it both distinct and familiar. Shadow of the Tomb Raider provides a combination of Lara's last 2 adventures for one outstanding finale.
PES 2019 is the next big thing in soccer simulation; possibly, the greatest way a soccer game is presented thus far.
Marvel's Spider-Man rarely has a disappointing moment. Right from the beginning a combination of high-speed action and outstanding writing creates a harmonious adventure that combines action, story-telling, and graphics for a near-perfect experience. The optional objectives can be a bit repetitive but Marvel's Spider-Man is a superhero game that rivals the excellency of the Batman: Arkham games.
Shadows: Awakening attempts to stray away from being a typical ARPG but lacks the juice to keep things interesting until its closing moments.
In between its tight mechanics and the possibility to play with others, Guns, Gore & Cannoli 2 is an excellent candidate to become a go-to party game.
Guacamelee! 2 is not only a blast to play through but also one of the most stylish and recognizable Metroidvanias to date.
Rare moments of intensity, mainly when dealing with bosses for the first few times, manage to turn Hypergun into a passable experience best approached in short bursts, but even so, there’s nothing particularly hyper about this gun.
Fighter EX Layer is a title fighting game enthusiasts will definitely enjoy.
Graveyard Keeper is an engaging sim that's a little too cheap with giving out information.
Since its debut, Telltale's The Walking Dead has captivated audiences with its incredible writing, consequential system, and complicated characters. The Walking Dead: The Final Season opens strong by providing a new set of characters and focusing on setting up a premise instead of providing polarizing choices. After a shocking finale Done Running has started off Clementine's final adventure with something that will delight newcomers and shock veterans.
We Happy Few hides nuggets of narrative gold at the end of tiring sequences of gameplay.
Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?! has plenty of humor and addicting gameplay, just don't in expecting anything different.
Dead Cells is a punishingly hard roguelike adventure that encourages agility, exactness and learning from your mistakes. You'll die, a lot, but that's the point. To keep trying and attempting to push further into the adventure with each failure. This is definitely not an adventure for those who hate dying. Dead Cells expects you to die, get better, and die again.
Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire - Beast of Winter is a more focused DLC that's at its best when it expands on key lore moments.
Much of Chasm's appeal comes from the random nature of the adventure. The procedurally generated Metroidvania world creates a dynamic situation where combat and exploration are always surprising. Twisted confinements in this underground lair littered with all matter of dangerous creatures and environmental hazards form a deadly dance of evading and slashing. Some of the random environments can link together for vexing platforming challenges and lopsided enemy variety but the tension created by Chasm's chance placement means that nothing you encounter is expected.
