Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is a natural evolution of the first game, which now fully develops its original vision. It brings a deeper story, historical fidelity, and dramatization of the action. The beautiful backdrops of Bohemian Paradise and Guttenberg complement improved combat, creative quests, and sophisticated dialogue choices. While the game maintains its authentic RPG style, it also pushes the boundaries of the genre and shows how Warhorse continues to improve in narrative and game design.

Citizen Sleeper 2 builds on a strong story, well-written characters and a unique dice mechanic that delivers tension and strategy. The open world and deep themes give the game an unforgettable atmosphere. If you like text-based RPGs with an emphasis on decision-making and survival in an inhospitable universe, this game will suck you in.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 restores hope in the franchise. Game studios Treyarch and Raven Software continue what the 2020 title Cold War started. With a story campaign that offers an absolutely brilliant level composition, while enriching it with excellent shooting dynamics and a new motion omnimovement system. The latter translates beautifully to the multiplayer, which of course could have done with some work on the new game modes, as well as the Zombies mode, which is repairing its reputation. This is simply good Call of Duty.

Tribe Nation is a military strategy game with rogue-like mechanics, from the Czech studio Random Worlds. Players take on the role of a warlord fleeing from Caesar's army. The game combines movement on hexagonal fields, strategy and elements of chance, which should make each battle unique. Battles are divided into phases where you fight in real time, and phases where you manage your upgrades and equipment. While the visuals are simple, Tribe Nation is fun to play with, but some mechanics, such as inaccuracies in moving units, can be frustrating. The game could be enhanced with more content and tweaks to increase replayability and player motivation.

Donkey Kong Country Returns HD is a fun and difficult platformer, which impresses players mainly with great level design. The wobbly controls do spoil the experience and make the game unnecessarily difficult, but if you can get past that, this is a well made remaster.

Metro Awakening represents not only a return to the Moscow metro after a relatively long time, but also the first opportunity to experience this post-apocalyptic world literally from the perspective of your own eyes in virtual reality. Vertigo Games managed to do it incredibly succesfully. It is, simply put, a full-fledged Metro that no fan should miss. This is despite its flaws, for example with the abrupt change of narrative style midway through or the repetition of locations.

Forgotten but Unbroken comes with an interesting setting and an ambitious concept that promises a combination of turn-based action and strategy building. Unfortunately, it suffers from a lack of variety, a weaker story and dated graphics. Stable optimization and quality audio do lift the game, but they are not enough to overcome its repetitive gameplay and other shortcomings.

Mario & Luigi: Brothership succesfully brings back the charm of this good old RPG series after whopping 11 years. And they did it with grace, especially for a new studio that replaced the original AlphaDream.

Fitness Boxing 3 won't turn you into the next Rocky Balboa, but it's sure to give you the motivation you need for a fun every day workout. If you like to excercise from the comfort of your home and don't mind the occasional motion detection bug, you'll really appreciate this glorified fitness app.

At its core, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is an awfully good game with a solid story, an awesome atmosphere of the Zone, and generally great gameplay. Audiovisually, it's a beautiful game, and its gameplay mechanics, along with its higher difficulty, won't give you anything for free. Excellent! If only it weren't knocked off its imaginary pedestal by some pretty serious technical issues, ranging from not-so-good optimization to pretty major bugs, game crashes, inability to complete quests and other flaws that simply ruin this otherwise great experience.

The Sims 4 Life and Death add-on introduces engaging mechanics like ghost afterlife, reincarnation, and realistic features like inheritance and funerals. Romanian-inspired buildings add charm to the expansion. However, the reaper career feels repetitive and suffers from a bug hindering progression.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard is not aimed at loyal fans of the series but rather at younger gamers or those playing their first RPG. The game is crafted very solidly but uses many RPG elements very superficially.

Although I was expecting more emphasis on physics in this title, and I only got a fraction of it, I can't say that Farming Simulator 25 is a lousy title. I was most pleased with the new GPS and animal innovations. And I don't think I'll be the only one. We were all definitely expecting a more significant step forward. I believe there is still a lot to improve, and I really hope that in the next version, we will see some new features that will make us all sit on our asses. If the modders can do it, why can't the developers do it?

LEGO Horizon Adventures is a faithful adaptation of the 2017 Horizon Zero Dawn game. The title perfectly and humorously translates the story of a serious adventure game into a blocky adventure that engages with entertaining dialogue. The gameplay also attempts to be close to the original title. While it succeeds in many areas, more experienced players may find some frustrating mechanics in the combat, especially if they choose to play them on the harder difficulty. In any case, LEGO Horizon Adventures is an excellent gateway for young players into the immersive world of Horizon and a fairly enjoyable one-piece game for adult players.

Atlus presents Metaphor: ReFantazio, a JRPG with a captivating story, great music, and appeal for both seasoned and new players. While its aging engine and slow narrative pacing may deter some, the game offers a rich experience for those ready to invest many hours.

Factorio: Space Age is in a complicated segment. On the one hand, it's more of that Factorio we love so much. More of what we all wanted. On the other, there's untapped potential that could have really pushed the game the step forward it deserves. And unfortunately, that's not happening. There's nothing wrong with what the DLC offers. We find fault more in what's missing...

Life is Strange: Double Exposure seeks to follow in the footsteps of 2015's successful first installment. But rather than a glorious sequel, it's like a cheap copy of it. The story draws the player in with a very intriguing plot, but it doesn't have a satisfying or meaningful ending or a "proper version" of Maxine Caulfield. The protagonist resembles herself, but is a mere bystander rather than an actor. And that's not something we want from a continuation of her story. Double Exposure does come up with interesting gameplay mechanics and takes the graphics to a new level, but what good is a title when it fails in the two most important aspects that make Life is Strange Life is Strange: story and decisions?

Enotria: The Last Song is an enjoyable soulslike game with a beautiful world to explore, but poorly readable enemy animations will probably put many players off. If you're a die-hard soulslike game lover, you probably won't be impressed by this game. However, you won't be disappointed if you're happy with a mediocre experience.

In recent years, remakes have been held to significantly higher standards, and remaking something like Silent Hill 2 is a thankless job that could never satisfy everyone. And somehow, the Bloober Team managed to do precisely that. The game retains, almost word for word and room for room, everything that made the original so timeless and legendary and promises precisely the same experience it did all those years ago. At the same time, though, it's expanded to include entirely new locations or altered puzzles. Everything, however, completely respects the original, and I'm not afraid to say that when it comes to remaking an old game into a new one, Silent Hill 2 from Bloober Team sets a new bar.
