What Grim Dawn does is make us focus on how ARPGs once were. It is not the fast-paced click-fest leaning towards accessibility that Diablo 3 is and neither is it the complex behemoth that Path of Exile has evolved into.
Firewatch is a good debut that shines in some places and doesn’t in others. It definitely has a charm of its own, however it leaves the feeling that it’s not quite as refined as it could be. Going through it once will prove a pleasant trek through a beautiful patch of Wyoming wilderness with relatable characters who have great chemistry between them.
A gripping, unforgiving, complex dungeon crawler that translates lovecraftian themes excellently into its world. There are few indies out there that do everything as well as Darkest Dungeon. From art style to gameplay, from sound design and narrator, which is truly exceptional, and the writing Darkest Dungeon oozes quality.
In spite of the gameplay’s apparent limitations and the lack of excitement of reading the story when you could hear it or live it, the game is a must-play for any fans of the genre, the Norse mythology, compelling and mature narratives, and videogames in general.
Valhalla Hills pulls at one's nostalgia strings in a sweet way but a couple of issues alongside an honor system that's more of an afterthought than central mechanic it wants to be makes it hard to recommend straight away.
Darksiders 2: Deathinitive Edition works as a hybrid of multiple games, but if you've played the original Darksiders 2, playing this game won't be all that different.
It may not excel in anything, but the combination of atmosphere, tactical combat and character customization were enough to help with overlooking the unimpressive, muddy visuals, the unfairness which, at times, made me feel helpless and its limited save system.
The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing Final Cut still lacks the polish of other titles like Diablo 3 and Path of Exile, but it does provide a way to play through the entire story while holding onto your characters.
Secret Ponchos is a rather unique game with intense fights and a high skill ceiling but in need of more players. There’s E-Sports potential in Secret Ponchos and that comes from its gameplay that’s based around quick matches and lots of skill. Every mistake you make is your fault.
PES 16 may not be the greatest soccer game of all time, but it’s definitively worth your time and money. It’s a game that delivers a very satisfactory sports experience both to fans and newcomers.
Life Is Strange: Episode 5 - Polarized is an amazing final entry to the game as a whole making the entire game more than worth the price of admission.
Armello is a tabletop-style computer game that blends the two genres together in a near perfect mix.
Grow Home is a fantastically creative game that needs to be lauded as one of the best things that has come out of Ubisoft in years. It's warm, it's fun, it has some dark humor and it's just a wonderful ride for everyone.
DiscStorm is a fun arena-based game but it doesn't seem like a finished product. There are a lot of elements to it that can keep people playing for hours, but after a while when the “new toy” feeling fades away you may just find yourself wondering what can you do now.
Unless you were expecting something entirely different from the series, it’s irrelevant whether you’re a new or an old player. Shadowrun: Hong Kong is definitely worth grabbing and playing through at least once as it lies on the higher spectrum of available cyberpunk RPGs.
PixelJunk™ Nom Nom Galaxy is an addictive game with a lot of great mechanics, but those mechanics don't translate over to the controls.
Life Is Strange: Episode 4 - Dark Room is a great penultimate episode for this bestselling series, following up on a lot of questions we had from previous episodes, while giving us a bunch of new questions as well.
Way of the Samurai 4 certainly is a unique take on the open world mechanism of ultimate freedom. There’s a lot to see and a lot to experience, but in a small yet versatile package that contains tons of little things.
Spectra is a bright, colorful nostalgia-driven game that fully embraces its genre and the music spectacularly well. If you like Chipzel and you want to play another fun, yet difficult game that has her music, give Spectra a try.
Vector Thrust has a good view on what the arcade flight simulator genre is, even if it’s just pretty much Ace Combat in another package. The game’s strong core, however, does surround itself with multiple obstacles that make its smooth gameplay tougher to swallow.
