Madshot is a 2D action platformer with rogue-like elements that draws you into a dark world inspired by the Lovecraftian universe. Although it suffers from somewhat repetitive enemies and a simpler story, it offers thrilling combat accompanied by energetic metal and rock music. Fans of titles like Hades, Cult of the Lamb, or Dead Cells are sure to love Madshot. Compatibility with the Steam Deck is a nice bonus that lets you enjoy the game on the go.

Myth of Empires is an enjoyable third-person MMORPG with survival elements that takes you back to the era of ancient feudal China. You can choose whether to play on PvP or PvE servers, or even solo. It’s a solid title from the East that features a vast world where there’s always something to do. However, you’ll need to set aside plenty of time for the game, because even with a group of friends, everything takes an incredibly long time here.

Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty features an engaging story set in a historical setting and an entertaining combat system. Dynamic battles and the ability to choose your playstyle create a solid foundation for an action RPG. However, technical issues—particularly in the expansions—and its high price compared to the competition prevent it from reaching the same heights.

If you’re a fan of boomer shooters and already own Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun, there’s practically no logically defensible reason why you shouldn’t also pick up the Forges of Corruption DLC. It expands this excellent game even further and, on top of that, introduces two of the most destructive and spectacular weapons in gaming history. To ignore such an offer would be heresy.

Mullet MadJack is proof that this as-yet-unnamed subgenre—which emerged from the somewhat niche Post Void—has now reached a stage where it can appeal to a broad gaming audience. Shooting robot billionaires at a frantic pace is incredibly fun and almost addictive. Moreover, the Brazilian developers have managed to come up with a distinctive art style that draws on the often-exploited Japanese and ’80s cultures, yet avoids the common fetishizing stereotypes.

Drug Dealer Simulator 2 is a very well-made simulation game where you build a drug empire in a region reminiscent of a Caribbean paradise. Everyone can enjoy the game either alone or with friends. A perfect game from Byterunners.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine remains one of the best action games that fans of the famous gothic-space franchise can play. It clearly draws inspiration from contemporary trends, but at the same time successfully finds a way to set itself apart from other games and establish its own identity. Sure, you could criticize it for being a bit too monotonous, linear, and brown, but these are all minor flaws that are easily lost in the heat of battle.

Detroit: Become Human is a uniquely complex game that will appeal to different people in different ways—and may not appeal to some at all. I therefore recommend that you download the demo to see if it’s right for you and if it captures your interest.

All in all, though, Maid of Sker is a very enjoyable gaming experience that I recommend to all fans of story-driven horror games.

The Solus Project is an enjoyable exploration-based walking simulator that aims to compellingly blend story and survival elements. Unfortunately, it falls short in this regard and doesn’t offer what other similar titles in its category do. The story and its narrative do offer some interesting moments, even though they’re scattered throughout what is mostly a monotonous journey from point A to point B. This is clearly a case of wasted potential, and it is definitely not a full-fledged survival horror game.

ELDEN RING: Shadow of the Erdtree is an absolutely fantastic expansion to the already phenomenal ELDEN RING. The DLC fits perfectly into the ELDEN RING universe and brilliantly expands the lore. It also introduces breathtaking new locations, epic battles against new bosses, and a wide variety of new weapons and gear. In terms of content, ELDEN RING: Shadow of the Erdtree clearly surpasses some full-fledged games and is an absolute must-have for every ELDEN RING player.

Kerbal Space Program 2 was supposed to be a worthy successor to the first game, a fantastic space sandbox simulator. However, the title was marred by numerous early development errors that continue to cause problems to this day. Kerbal Space Program 2 definitely has a lot to offer, but because many known bugs remain unresolved even a year after its release into Early Access, and according to the latest information, the future of the development studio (and the development process) is still uncertain, I cannot recommend the game at this stage. I would rather opt for Kerbal Space Program 1 or wait until the full version of the game is released.

Gray Zone Warfare has its own charm, and its beautiful Laos-inspired setting will appeal to many players despite the issues with early access. Those who accept the game’s current state and view their purchase as a way to support the Czech studio can already find a decent amount of tactical fun right now.

Samurai Warriors 4 DX was a phenomenal experience for me, combining historical accuracy with thrilling gameplay and a wealth of content to boot. Whether you’re a seasoned samurai veteran or a complete newcomer to the world of musou action, this title is definitely not to be missed. The game offers a captivating story and a diverse roster of male and female commanders, making this title an unforgettable journey through the fascinating Sengoku period. A big thumbs-up from me.

Sociable Soccer 24 is an arcade sports game that focuses primarily on simple controls and smooth, fast-paced matches, and doesn’t require players to perform any complex actions or go through a learning curve. Thanks to these features, the game will be especially appreciated by those who just want some casual fun without having to think too much. However, it can also be a great family game for long winter evenings when you just want to kill some time with a friend or your kids. It’s a bit of a shame that there aren’t any customization options—especially for match length—or user-configurable controls. Even so, it’s a well-made game that we can recommend to all fans of casual games. Seven out of ten.

It's a great game. The campaign is short, but enjoyable. It's unnecessarily challenging in places, but it's a turn-based strategy game, so what else would I expect? The interesting race of frogs is sure to win everyone’s heart. A high-quality combat system, simple controls, and above all, those skits between missions—that’s something amazing. Unfortunately, the game is still let down by the unfinished wait times between turns and minor details on the map. At first, you tell yourself it doesn’t matter, but it’s something that never stops bothering you.

Jack Holmes: Master of Puppet may not be a AAA title, but it offers a gripping and compelling story that you certainly won’t forget anytime soon. The game delivers a visually stunning and emotional experience that immerses you in this vibrant world. In addition to enjoyable gameplay and a great soundtrack, you’ll find unique entertainment in the form of trying out all sorts of attractions—something you won’t find in other horror titles. Plus, the game offers plenty of references to other games, movies, and popular TV shows. It was definitely a big surprise for me, and I’d gladly recommend it to everyone to give it a try.

Men of War II played at being Princess Scooter and arrived in the world half-baked. It’s not a completely bad game, but even after fixing the flaws of the initial release, it’s unlikely it will ever be a great game. However, if it’s really piqued your interest, wait at least a few months for the developers to smooth out the rough edges.

Disco Simulator is a game that will keep you entertained for a few hours, but unfortunately, I was expecting a little more. Yes, decorating and managing the club are fun, but the game doesn’t offer enough content, so it gets repetitive faster than I expected. The constant resetting of progress was the biggest drawback for me. However, if you just want to relax with a game, Disco Simulator might be the right choice for you.

Backpack Hero is a game full of strategic planning and suspense. Whether you choose Story Mode or a quick game, you’ll find plenty of challenges and tactical fun. Although it has its flaws, it offers a unique experience thanks to its innovative use of the backpack as a central gameplay element. Plus, the developers promise to add more content in the future.
