Kingpin: Reloaded is about 4 hours long with about an hour per chapter. You can also get quite lost in the levels where everything looks a bit the same. However, the game itself plays quite well, although the performance of the game is very disappointing. The game itself is reasonably playable, but noticing glitches during the action in a game that is almost 25 years old is simply not possible. It makes the game tough to digest. The quality of the game is therefore quite poor.

Dredge itself is a great game that will give you at least ten hours of delicious H.P. Lovecraft gives horror. The life of a sailor and the dangers at sea in your small fishing boat fit perfectly with a horror theme. The gameplay is simple, so you can take your time. The atmosphere, the story and the presentation are rock solid. You really can't go wrong here. The expansion will merge invisibly with the rest of the game for new players. This will not be the case for players who have already completed the game. The best experience will be when you restart the game and Dredge is definitely worth going through in full again.

There's something here that could have been brilliant. With just a little more time in the oven to give more variety in missions, a more interesting skill set and more different enemies, this could have been a fun game to play with three friends. Now it is a game that is fun for one mission and then quickly forgotten.

The expansion is therefore not the right start for a new player. As a new player, it is best to just start with the basic game. This is an expansion aimed at players who have completed the basic game completely. This way you can take all your characters with you and it feels less like you're getting a generic start. You understand how all the systems work and the main story of Tales of Arise is wonderfully epic. Beyond the Dawn has little added value, except to extend the playing time a little more.

The single player is extremely lousy, with the terrible open combat missions, and few fans will be really happy with the new zombie mode. Although the multiplayer plays wonderfully, it consists solely of old maps with a slightly modernized look. You can definitely have fun in the online part, it even plays better than the previous part. But in terms of content, Modern Warfare 3 is the absolute low point of the series in recent years and certainly not worth the full price.

After about 7 hours of playing you will have reached the end of the game and actually after about 2 hours you will notice that the monotony and flat gameplay starts to seem quite the same. The level design is quite nice here and there, but you are actually constantly jumping, dashing and shooting. The latter in particular starts to get really annoying at a certain point. Do not get me wrong; The Smurfs 2 is certainly not a bad game, and may be quite challenging for real young people to master, but otherwise it plays well and doesn't do anything terribly wrong.

Kill It With Fire VR tries to make a full game out of a simple idea: crushing spiders. Unfortunately, after a few levels you'll find yourself losing interest due to the repetitive gameplay. The extra assignments are fun, but do not mean that you have to do the same thing several times. The mediocre graphics, physics and controls work against this game and the new PSVR2 hardware unfortunately cannot disguise this. This is a VR game that was fun as one of the first VR games, but now it's disappointing when you compare it to the newer VR titles on the market.

The longer I played this game the more frustrated I became. For the first hour I was still smiling through the presentation. However, it ended with swearing. The game is not completely unplayable, but it would have been better if a number of problems were resolved and the game had a release around Christmas. A shame, because at this time when it gets dark early, a good Christmas game would have been a lot of fun.

The quality, love and finish radiates from the Endless Dungeon game. The makers have tried to get the most out of it in every area. Combining three different genres can be risky, but it manages to find a nice balance here. Graphically, this game looks very cool and every hero is a blast. Building turrets is sometimes disappointing because you cannot collect enough resources due to the randomly generated levels. But if you manage to collect enough raw materials, all the puzzle pieces will fit together perfectly. Highly recommended!

It is nice that EA is also venturing into unknown territory for once, because the WRC is not something the company has ventured into so far. With Codemasters that step has finally been taken and that is to be commended. For a first game, we certainly cannot complain in terms of content and gameplay. The racing takes some getting used to, but once you get the hang of it, the game plays well. However, the game doesn't really excel in anything. In terms of audio and visuals, nothing is really special and in terms of game modes, nothing is really convincing or addictive. The game plays just fine and scores more than adequately everywhere. The first introduction to this racing genre is not yet completely convincing, but it is more than sufficient. It seems to be the prelude to more games, although it remains to be seen how successful this first game will be with the public.

Explaining everything that is in Star Ocean: The Second R is a task in itself. It is a huge game with a lot of replay value, great options to customize your characters to your own wishes and a fantastic battle system. The only downside is the somewhat simplistic main story. This remake takes the original to new heights and modernizes sufficiently while keeping the charm of the original intact.

With RoboCop: Rogue City, does the developer know how to take the game to identical heights as the film series? Unfortunately not. It is clear that they are still on the upward trend. This is a first person shooter where you literally and figuratively go back in time. No understandable class structure, just shooting. It is of course possible to upgrade your gun and choose skills for RoboCop, but the essence is rough shooting and the game does that well. It is a shame that other elements are less well developed, such as the poor AI of the opponents. Major missed opportunities are also the detective work, which now only consists of scanning your environment, and the minimal consequences of your choices during the story.

The cool visual design can't stop Life of Delta from being a mediocre point and click adventure game. The interaction is very clumsy on the Playstation 5. Moving the cursor is normally too slow, but it is not precise enough for the many puzzles. The simple interactions and minimal choice of objects you have to use ensure that you don't have to think too long about the puzzles. The price of twenty euros is therefore on the high side and Life of Delta needs more than a nice presentation to make the purchase worthwhile.

Overpass 2 is a game that does no more than an average racing game. The different ways of riding over the different terrains are the most groundbreaking, unique factor. You don't have to expect much in terms of content. Besides the career mode, you have actually seen most of it quite quickly. And even the career mode is not very special and extensive. To be honest, Overpass 2 is still a fairly rough diamond that still needs some polishing, especially in terms of AI and perhaps also the number of tracks that are available. These become quite repetitive after a while. Overpass 2 is certainly not a bad game, but it doesn't really excel in anything either. The genre must really appeal to you if you want to get this game as quickly as possible.

Project Blue is really a game aimed at fans of the genre and enthusiasts of NES platformers. You don't get any help and the game can be frustratingly challenging. Visually, this is a game that really looks like a retro title. The makers do not push the hardware to its limits and do not do anything innovative that makes the game immediately visually striking. This is a positive point, because it conveys the Mega Man vibe very well. The first few minutes or images say it all, it's a NES platformer that does everything perfectly as they would have done in the eighties. It is a game that you can also purchase as a NES cartridge and this is the ultimate way to experience this game. The Nintendo Switch version is a nice alternative for players who cannot easily get the NES console from the attic.

The Haunted House remake is a true successor to the 1982 original. This roguelite replaces large battles with sneaking and puzzling and this works wonderfully well. The rooms are randomly generated each time, making each attempt different and surprising. The game starts very challenging, but as you earn more upgrades you will get through the game a little easier. The art style is nice and technically the game is well put together.

I personally had very different expectations of Infinity Strash. This title was announced as a kind of action RPG in the Dragon Quest world. In reality it has become more of an arena fighter with a story told at 8x speed. I wonder who this game is actually for. If you want an arena fighter, you better buy Dragon Quest: Heroes. Would you like to experience Dai's story? Then it is much better to watch the 2020 anime.

Spider-Man 2 does a lot right and it is therefore difficult to highlight the lesser points, which are also quite scarce. Spider-Man 2 simply builds on the previous parts, and therefore largely plays the same as what you are used to. You also notice that the citizens in the city often look the same and are considerably less detailed than main characters such as Peter, Miles and MJ. Is this disturbing? Absolutely not. Developer Insomniac would also be crazy to change the entire concept when it has worked so well in the past. This new installment does everything you expect and even more.

Borderlands 3 Ultimate Edition is not the game for players who have already played the game on another platform or would like to pick up the game for the PS5, Xbox or PC. The Ultimate Edition is available for the other platforms and is the ultimate version for four people. But the Switch version is a great game if you've never played the series before, you like to play the game on the go, or the Switch is the only console you own. This is one of the most impressive ports for the Nintendo Switch and many people thought that the third part would skip the Switch. We are happy that the game does not skip the platform, because Borderlands 3 is still a very cool game on the Switch.

The concept may be clear; That's too simple for words. Graphically and audio-wise, the game doesn't really know which direction it wants to go. Objects are sharp, yet angular. Bars, for example, is round, but you still see straight shapes, so it does not look round. Floors look blurry, but still quite superficial. Light should provide extra details, but the color transitions do not. The same can also be said in terms of audio. You hear sounds, but what is it actually? Music? Or simply some sound effects? The game lacks a bit of direction on every level. The depth could also have been better. This platformer just doesn't cut it in that regard. It is actually a great game offline and online, with which you can get quite a few hours of entertainment. However, it never really becomes very interesting, so the game does not score much more than adequate.
