Endless Space 2 takes elements from both the first game in the series and its planet-bound cousin, mixing them together into a great package. It has its flaws, as I mentioned when discussing heroes, diplomacy and the bugs that gravitate around quests.
NetherRealm probably stumbled a bit implementing the newly introduced gear management feature, but everything else in Injustice 2 is flawless. It’s hard not to call Injustice 2 a benchmark of this genre, and a masterpiece that truly delivers good quality entertainment.
Even with the glaring issues, Trails in the Sky the 3rd is a charming videogame that has a lot of dedication and love put into it. The story of the game is certainly interesting for being an epilogue/spin-off.
Even with its heartfelt tale, Old Man’s Journey felt less like a game one can get invested in and more like something to be played, say, on a long bus trip. It does come with beautiful levels that feel like large paintings which, coupled with the soundtrack, have the ability to draw you in their world.
Routine or not, Cooking Mama: Sweet Shop is a delight to go to and make a few dishes, opening up the appetite. The game may even serve the most adventurous among us to go forth and make some elaborate treats for themselves.
The Surge is an excellent and challenging action-adventure RPG that will test even the most hardened gamer. The insanely fun combat system and deep customization system kept me dismembering enemies and collecting loot for hours.
A very particular story driven game stood out from many others during this year, is Night in the Woods worth your time and money or is it another game of the bunch?
Snow Moto Racing Freedom is pretty mediocre. This isn’t an arcade game like back in the day that you would remember, but seems lack identity and exhilaration.
On its own, Dawn Of War III is a good strategy game that, while lacking in certain areas, can provide epic battles. As a continuation of the series, however, it's easily overshadowed by past iterations as it fails to find enough strengths of its own.
It’s hard to really place Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 in the category of a “bad” game because it wasn’t. It just wasn’t a completed product and that’s a travesty considering how much potential the game truly had.
Even with its technical and gameplay hiccups, Filthy Lucre is a great example of how a game can be challenging and teach players the ropes of the game with its level design. The AI certainly won’t slack off and it’s going to keep any gamer considering their strategies the whole way through.
The best thing about Little Nightmares is the disturbing, terrifying aesthetic it masterfully presents and uses to unsettle the player. It never feels like it’s overused, either. You get just the right amount, so that the idea that you’re part of a little girl’s nightmare is maintained until the end.
As fun as it was to play this game, it didn’t come without a few annoying elements here and there. Darkness in the game acts as its own entity and often times will frustrate the hell out of you, but the urge to dredge on will captivate you.
In the end, Fallout: Shelter is good for what it sets out to do. It’s a great time waster and it certainly will hook you with its visuals and presentation.
Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap is by far the best representation to why certain retro games deserve a makeover. Not just because they can, but developers such as Lizardcube have taken careful thought and conducted lots of research, love and time into this game.
The Signal From Tölva will find its crowd in those patient enough to sink into the planet’s atmosphere, into its silence and barrenness while engaging in the occasional firefight and lore reveal hidden inside objects that aren’t always in sight.
It’s as if building just one tight game wasn’t enough, Slime-san goes above and beyond in its cute platform game and gives its audience a completely new world on top of that.
The moment you accept that you’re just another critter trying to survive and hopefully reunite with its family, is the moment you’ll be able to enjoy the title properly. As long as you can push through the frequent setbacks that death brings with it, Rain World will be a great experience of survival and discovery in a world that’s quite unique.
Mass Effect: Andromeda attempts to build upon the foundation of the previous games. We see that in the presence of all the weapon ammo patterns and the Nomad. In some ways, like the large explorable areas and the cover-based combat system that’s been infused, and subsequently refreshed, with a good bit of movement and versatility on the skill front, it succeeds.
Super Bomberman R is easily one of the most addicting games on the Nintendo Switch, especially considering its versatility, but it’s hard to justify its price.
