45 / 100 - Rusty Rabbit
Apr 18, 2025

Rusty Rabbit is a 2D platformer with a very strange concept, bad implementation of ideas, and a very good main character, whose charisma and bad-ass appearance are simply not enough to carry the entire game on his back.

The Spirit of the Samurai is a game full of great ideas that, unfortunately, fail to shine due to poor execution. The game is held back by terribly unresponsive controls, poorly implemented enemy AI, and developer promises that fall far short of expectations. These shortcomings, among others, ultimately make it difficult for me to recommend this game.

50 / 100 - Gungrave G.O.R.E
Nov 22, 2022

Gungrave G.O.R.E should've stayed in the 2000s. Its simplistic design doesn't work in the modern day of video games where similar action titles offer much more than just brutal combat. G.O.R.E lacks depth in almost every single way. Its level design is stuck in the past, visuals are outdated and gameplay just doesn't do enough to make this a title worth your time.

55 / 100 - Skye Tales
Aug 17, 2023

Speaking honestly, I tend to be the kind of individual who views the glass as half full and strives to unearth the positives in any situation. However, even with my sincere efforts to identify merits within Skye Tales, I find myself facing significant challenges.

55 / 100 - Gord
Aug 15, 2023

I really wanted to like Gord but sadly, despite an interesting concept and ideas, the execution comes off frustratingly disappointing and shallow.

60 / 100 - The Thaumaturge
Mar 4, 2024

The Thaumaturge was one of the games that I was really looking forward to but ultimately, it failed to meet my expectations. Despite an interesting demon-taming concept, nice-looking visuals and an atmospheric setting, I found the story to be lacking with a very slow and dull presentation that made the game feel more like a chore than something enjoyable.

60 / 100 - Scars Above
Feb 28, 2023

Scars Above is an average third-person action-adventure shooter that doesn't try anything new, despite being set in such an interesting sci-fi world, that invites unique ideas and concepts.

Bright Memory Infinite turned out to be a game that can go either way on the scale for the average player but nonetheless impressive work for what is essentially a one-man studio.

In its current state, Battlefield 2042 is not worth your money but there is hope that later in 2022, this can become a shooter that fans of the series were hoping for.

JDM: Japanese Drift Master is a new drift simulation racing game with eye candy visuals and unique car control mechanics. While the game manages to hit the spot for most drifting aficionados, it falls behind when compared to other simulation titles out there.

Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered keeps its original appeal, but the dated mechanics may struggle to resonate with a newer generation of players.

Perhaps if the sports were more varied and additional content was included to make things more engaging, the experience would be better. As it stands, everything looks great at first, but sadly, the appeal fades quickly once the repetitiveness sets in.

Caravan SandWitch is a game with a therapeutic effect that truly relaxes you as you play, as everything in it is designed with that goal in mind. However, it falls short in many other aspects, with several questionable design choices, such as the absence of voice acting, which feels like a crucial missing element for this type of game.

65 / 100 - Skull and Bones
Feb 21, 2024

When a ten-year-old Assassin's Creed game proves to be a superior pirate experience compared to an actual pirate game which Skull and Bones is on paper, that only raises questions about the true nature of the latter.

Super Crazy Rhythm Castle serves as an ideal game for spending a few enjoyable hours with friends and family or as a diversion from more serious and demanding gaming experiences. However, its repetitive gameplay can lead to frequent bouts of boredom, as it doesn't introduce many innovative ideas beyond the frantic key-hitting and rhythmic challenges across various tracks.

The Callisto Protocol simply isn't scary, doesn't play well and has nothing to hook you into its world. It's a poor excuse for a horror game and you're better off waiting for Dead Space Remake than spending $70 on this one.

I don't think Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 is a bad game, it's just incredibly boring for a Call of Duty campaign. It's just not as memorable and won't stick with me for years as some other Call of Duty campaigns did. Perhaps I should learn to keep my expectations in check from now on but even if I went in expecting nothing, I'd say Call of Duty is just an okay game that could be worth your time if you're a die-hard fan.

On paper, Star Wars Outlaws has all the necessary elements to be a great open-world action-adventure but sadly, these elements never come together in a way that would create an engaging gameplay experience.

In essence, Outcast: A New Beginning can be characterized as a game brimming with exceptionally promising ideas yet suffering from dismal execution.

68 / 100 - Atomic Heart
Feb 20, 2023

Atomic Heart may be summarised in a single statement as a game with amazing ideas but lousy execution. I cannot say that Atomic Heart is a bad game, it's just that I expected a lot more from it, and as a result, I got disappointed.
