A charming homage to Streets Of Rage and other scrolling beat 'em-ups, but it doesn't overcome the genre's limitations and manages to add a few of its own.
An amiable but underwhelming homage to the forgotten majesty of Uridium, that adds some welcome new ideas but removes too many of the old ones.
A novel setting and concept can't hide the game's technical limitations, but this is still an entertaining first person roguelike that does try to do things differently.
Another failed attempt to get a traditional first person shooter working in VR, although the online co-op option keeps the novelty going for longer than it should.
A fun, if slightly limited, retro reboot, that works very well as an arcade shooter even without the novelty of VR.
An understandable attempt to create a more accessible Total War experience, but it's been streamlined so much it offers only a small taste of the series' full potential.
A mixture of roguelike and Zelda: A Link To The Past that looks and plays extremely well, but has its potential cut short by an unwelcome time limit.
It may have the framework of an ordinary city builder but there's an insightful, and frequently disturbing, philosophical message at the heart of this cross-genre classic.
An excellent turn-based strategy that mixes tense battlefield tactics with an engrossing meta game of money-grabbing mercs and expensive-to-maintain mechs.
The potential seems limitless and while Labo may not be a video game – and in that sense will provide little relief to Switch owners looking for something new to play – it could well be the next big thing. For big kids as well as little ones.
A revamped progression system and the demotion of loot boxes to a purely cosmetic role finally gives this ambitious Star Wars game the redemption it deserves.
A fun and funny 2D platformer whose infectious sense of humour comes through clearly in the visuals, the script, and the gameplay.
A fine idea in theory but while designing your own robots does have some unwanted limitations it's the dull multiplayer that really shorts its circuits.
Half a decade's worth of expansions deliver a dizzying array of features but this stylish survival game still frustrates as much as it entertains.
A top-to-bottom revamp of the whole God Of War franchise that matches thrilling, if slightly shallow, combat and exploration with some impressively trenchant storytelling.
Fighting giant monsters should never be as dull and formulaic as this cheap and nasty attempt to remind you other better games… and anime.
A superbly crafted 2D adventure that is a near perfect blend of new and old influences, in terms of both gameplay and the stunning visuals and music.
A great high-concept adventure that borrows liberally from old school Zeldas but has plenty of unique ideas of its own.
Probably the best single-player experience ever in a fighting game, on top of being an extremely accessible and highly technical multiplayer brawler.
How anyone came up with the idea, let alone made it work, is baffling but this charming little mystery game is the most entertaining Pokémon spin-off in a long time.
