Soul Hackers 2 takes some of the good parts of its parent series but makes it more forgiving for new comers, enough to give them a good foothold as they get introduced in this series of games. It follows a somewhat streamlined story that people might find cliched, but it has its own intrigue with its great characters that are lovable in design and personality.
The Saints Row reboot really brings the franchise back to when it was just a street gang trying to rise up the ranks. While the story does have its moments with a large variety of fun activities to do alone or with a friend, it’s unfortunately bogged down by outdated gameplay mechanics and technical issues.
Rollerdrome won't be for everyone given its devilish difficulty, but if you're a hardcore player who wants to test your skills, this new game from Roll7 is well worth checking out thanks to its fun-yet-challenging gameplay an great sense of style.
Digimon Survive felt like a game that wasn’t supposed to be one in the first place. The glimpses of brilliance being presented in the narrative are tainted by a tactics-based combat system that felt like it belonged to a forgettable mobile game rather than a release that was meant to celebrate 25 years of a long recognizable brand.
Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered is a solid PC port of a great game. While it may not be a groundbreaking open-world title, it still packs entertaining gameplay and a great story that will make for a fun experience. Plus, the PC version runs well on both high-end and low-end hardware that we tested.
Two Point Campus delivers the same quirkiness and gameplay as its predecessor, but it's more than just a reskinned version of Two Point Hospital. It has its own unique personality that will delight during hours of gameplay. Though the gameplay itself could be confusing for the uninitiated to the genre, the pacing is good enough to let you understand the mechanics so that you don't get flooded with too much information.
MADiSON is a great horror experience that will make your skin crawl, your heart pounding, and your eyes and ears begging to be covered. Developer Bloodious Games does an amazing job at building up tension through simple game mechanics and immersive environments. While some of the puzzles could use some tweaking, the game is still technically impressive and terrifying in all the right ways.
Stray is a surprisingly fun game with beautiful visuals and just the right amount of challenge. If you're a pet owner who's into puzzle platformers, you'll have a great time here.
MX vs. ATV Legends feels outdated, out-polished, and outran by some of its competitors in the motocross genre. There are tidbits of fun to be had in the experience but it feels more frustrating to play with the number of technical flaws present.
Sonic Origins is undeniably fun with faithful recreations of the original games that represented the peak of the franchise. It, however, loses its momentum with unnecessary DLC that taints an otherwise charming love letter that celebrates 30 years for everyone’s favorite blue hedgehog.
OlliOlli World: VOID Riders is a welcome addition to the base game as it features lots of fun levels. And while it's difficulty may be on the tougher side (especially if you haven't beat the main game yet), it's a fun challenge overall with lots of cool additions.
The Quarry's pacing can be a tad slow, but it is short enough not to overstay its welcome before getting to a more tense pace. But the tension was not transferred onto the gameplay where choices acted as more of a respite during these hectic scenarios. Still, despite some questionable moments, it is pretty engaging game with a high replay value.
If you like investigative dramas and are interested in something that's more interactive than your typical TV show, Centennial Case might be up your alley.
Despite its initial glitches and issues, Warhammer 40k Chaos Gate - Daemon Hunters is a challenging game with many unique mechanics that sets it apart from other turn based tactical RPGs, all while having a challenging yet compelling difficulty. This makes it a game that we recommend highly to big Warhammer 40k fans.
13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim is a must-play for players who want to experience an impressive story with memorable characters, as well as surprisingly compelling real-time strategy gameplay.
The Skywalker Saga not only features an improved version of the classic Lego Star Wars gameplay, it also lets players experience the Star Wars saga in a fun and joyful way, as well as allowing them to explore the series' iconic locations thanks to large, semi-open world levels.
Edge of Eternity is a passion project by those people who really love JRPGs putting together. While it is a bit rough around the edges, there are great ideas here and some things to love, including a fair battle system and beautiful crafted world.
The Hong Kong is a stylish top-down shooter that, while not being the most original game out there, is an enjoyable experience.
Ghostwire: Tokyo is a game with an excellent atmosphere and great visuals but is let down by average gameplay and a forgettable story.
Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin offers a counterintuitive experience that has terrible presentation and an unintentionally hilarious narrative. It’s slightly saved by a fairly enjoyable combat and job system. Take both of those away, and this game will feel more like a parody of the legendary franchise.
