Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes is a Hack 'n Slash in the same style as Dynasty Warriors. The big difference with other games in the genre comes from the influence of the Fire Emblem series. The fast-paced battle levels with hordes of enemies alternate quickly with quiet conversations to forge bonds or with a political undertone.

8 / 10.0 - F1 22
Jul 13, 2022

As a successor to F1 2021, F1 22 is able to bring a number of innovations that are not always successful. F1 Life as a replacement for Braking Point is quite a disappointment. Nevertheless, F1 22 does what it's supposed to do, which is to give you that thrill of overtaking at high speed from other drivers. The career mode remains a joy to play and online brings a fun challenge. For Formula 1 fans, F1 22 is really a joy to play again.

8 / 10.0 - Stray
Jul 28, 2022

In Stray you are not a human or a monster, but a cute cat. Move in a humanless world in which you as a cat have to find your way back to your friends. Stray is breathtakingly beautiful and you will be amazed at how cute this game is. There could have been just a little more in it, for example by being able to change the appearance of your cat itself to your own cat, for example. Nevertheless, Stray is a fantastic game and well worth playing. If only because of that magical feeling that you play as a cat.

8 / 10.0 - Cult of the Lamb
Sep 27, 2022

Devilishly cute and hilarious! That is the best description for Cult of the Lamb. This Roguelike uses several gameplay elements that also turned out great. Are you a good leader or do you sacrifice everyone for your sweet revenge?

Metal: Hellsinger is a rhythmic first person shooter set in hell. The game doesn't last long, but contains enough challenge to keep you entertained. It offers a unique gaming experience where you feel the music throughout your body.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection is a wonderful collection of video games from the late 80s and 90s. It is sure to evoke nostalgia. The extra additions such as online multiplayer, intermediate saving and being able to rewind provide a lot of convenience. If you have to whine, it is at most about the price. At forty euros, it is quite an expensive collection.

8 / 10.0 - F1 Manager 2022
Sep 24, 2022

Always wanted to be the new Max Verstappen, but you can't? Maybe managing a Formula 1 team is something for you. In F1 Manager 2022 you can work as a manager of an F1 team. The choices are endless and the influence you can exert as a manager feels realistic. However, you will sometimes drown in the choices you can and must make and it plays a little less pleasantly on the consoles than on the PC.

8 / 10.0 - Scorn
Nov 30, 2022

Scorn is a beautiful game that feels bad and at times even challenging. The philosophy of figure it out is clearly noticeable. This makes Scorn frustrating at times, despite the short running time of the game. Scorn is a fun game to pick up between all those AAA games.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II is an improvement over Call of Duty: Vanguard. The single player plays well, despite the fact that you buy this for the online multiplayer. Infinity Ward is certainly not finished with this part and there will also be a lot of new content such as new maps in the coming period. Infinity Ward is already busy with that and with the first season and Warzone 2.0, the fans will be sweet for a while. The only hope is that Infinity Ward will also give the necessary attention to Cooperative and what exactly they want to do with Raids. All in all, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II is another big blast, but a blast with a recognizable flavor.

8 / 10.0 - Harvestella
Dec 18, 2022

In a vibrant and colorful world, as a player you will grow your crops, befriend the townspeople, overcome threats, discover the origins of the world and the truth behind the Quietus disaster. This is a period of death that comes at the beginning of a new season. At first, Harvestella feels like all the other farm sims, but Haverstella has found a way to make the most simplicity work. The simple combat mechanics are nothing to rave about. Everything else, like agriculture, is excellent. As a player you can explore different cities and dungeons of the world. The length of the days feel perfect. You can do whatever you want and still have some wiggle room to run around and talk to townspeople, fish, explore, or even look for NPCs.

Season: A Letter to the Future is a game that is difficult to rate. It is a game that will definitely go too slow for some people, while other people really lick their fingers at this. When you make the decision, it is perhaps best to ask yourself whether you are waiting for a game where you can completely leave the pace and hectic for a while and immerse yourself in peace. If that's something that sounds good to you and you don't mind that this game isn't particularly long, then Season is definitely a great game for you.

Despite the steep learning curve, there's plenty to enjoy in Chef Life: A Restaurant Simulator. You will of course be held by the hand in the beginning and the game will give you enough tips to make everything succeed, but things will go wrong and trial and error will regularly come into play. Anyone who can look past this will be able to call themselves a cooking wonder in no time. For now Chef Life: A Restaurant Simulator is highly recommended and should be on the menu of every gamer who enjoys the simulator genre even a little.

Burning Shores perfectly picks up the story after the events of Horizon Forbidden West. At twenty euros, the expansion is not even that expensive and can be completed fairly quickly. Los Angeles looks beautiful and story-wise it's pretty solid too. Now waiting for the latest part to appear, although that will take a while. Until then, keep flying around Burning Shores.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is set five years after Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Cal Kestis is still trying to evade the Empire. Cal has now gained the necessary experience and you as a player can continue his adventure. New planets are visited that are also a lot bigger than in the previous part. Don't worry, you can now accelerate to certain places on those planets without having to go through everything. The necessary improvements have been made and the fact that you can now learn your own fighting style is a big plus. Unfortunately, the game sometimes drops some stitches in the technical field, but that does not make fighting with a lightsaber any less.

Final Fantasy XVI is a beautiful game that takes a slightly different approach than its predecessors. Brutal, tempo action with accessibility for everyone is what you can expect.

8 / 10.0 - Fort Solis
Aug 22, 2023

Fort Solis is the first project from Fallen Leaf Studio and takes you to the Fort Solis base on the planet Mars. Something is going on and it's up to you as a player to find out what. Fort Solis knows how to give you a very oppressive feeling while not much actually happens. The story is sometimes a bit muddled and the playing time is on the short side with about four to six hours. Nevertheless, Fort Solis does give you a good feeling afterwards and it tastes like more of Fallen Leaf Studio.
