8 / 10.0 - Quadroids
Feb 21, 2024

It's been a while since I played a puzzle game to my heart. Quadroids is one of those games where the level design is well thought out, the gameplay is nice and simple, but the game is more than challenging enough for both novice and experienced players. Quadroids is a game that will certainly be worth the money, also considering the content you get. After about 4 hours I was halfway through the game and after about 10 hours I was at the end. One level takes you 30 seconds of work, the other level takes some thinking time and research and can easily cost you minutes. In addition, it is also a game that you can enjoy together on the couch, without too much stress, but with a lot of relaxed cooperation. And does something go wrong? No problem, just try again. In conclusion, I can say that Quadroids is a game with which I had a great time.

Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty Complete Edition is a complete package and a particularly good introduction to the soulslike genre. Unfortunately, the game feels a bit outdated here and there with the individual levels. Fortunately, the game plays well, the bosses look very cool and the game gives the player a lot of extra options to defeat the challenging bosses. You will encounter few surprises here, especially in the level design, and with the expansions you will have to put in quite a few hours to complete the game. Team Ninja will release Rise of the Ronin at the beginning of this year and this is a nice game in the same style to pick up in the meantime.

8 / 10.0 - Helldivers II
Feb 14, 2024

It's clear, Helldivers 2 is fun. Very nice indeed. It is not without reason that this became the best-selling Playstation game on PC within a few days. The wonderful shooting, the spectacular Stratagems and the teamwork while playing makes Helldivers 2 one big party. There are few games that can give you so much fun and chaos, combined with perhaps not the very best graphics, but one of the most atmospheric. You often imagine yourself in a Starship Troopers or Terminator movie with all the explosions and bullets around you. It's a shame that the game was plagued by so many technical issues in the first few days, but the developer has done everything they can to resolve this and has already largely succeeded. The problems must of course be taken into account in the assessment, but make no mistake, Helldivers 2 is already one of the best games of 2024 and will only get better in the future with all the new free content. And for only €40 this is a no-brainer, get that trade!

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is a difficult game to judge. The world of Pandora is ideal for an open world game and the conflict between the Na'vi and the RDA ensures that there is plenty to do for the player. The game looks great and the soundtrack from the film is also present here. The moments where all elements click together perfectly give the player an extremely rich gaming experience. Unfortunately, the game contains a lot of different elements that you as a player have to discover with a lot of frustration. The first ten hours are therefore more complicated than necessary. Even the menu to view your current collection of materials looks complicated. But the moment you have seen the many elements and know where everything is, you start to understand the game better. That's when you really start to enjoy this game. It is such a shame that you first have to work hard in this game.

8 / 10.0 - EA Sports WRC
Nov 2, 2023

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.

My Little Universe is a game that you can put a lot of hours into. After dozens of hours, I'm not even halfway through. It's a game where you don't have to do or think much. You are constantly collecting materials and the makers have managed to make collecting and returning these materials a very enjoyable experience. It's not a game about fighting or building a settlement. You unlock a new hexagonal box every time. If you are looking for a game where you can spend some (or a lot) of time on the go without any difficulties, then My Little Universe is highly recommended.

Is Mirage worth it? Of course. Although it is again a typical Assassin's Creed and clearly an oversized DLC from Valhalla, it is a relief to really have to sneak around with Basim again. This is what made the series so popular and Mirage shows that it is still a lot of fun. With about 30 hours of gameplay, the game is a lot more manageable than the gigantic previous parts, but certainly no less. Moreover, you only pay €45 for Mirage instead of the full €70, for which we have to compliment the developer. The game starts off quite weak with an introduction that is far too long, but once you get past that you can really get on with it. Assassins's Creed Mirage is an excellent "snack" where stealth is back and you don't have to spend 150 hours to see everything. More is not always better, and that proof is provided here.

8 / 10.0 - Days of Doom
Sep 21, 2023

Days of Doom is an excellent example of a good turn-based game that is both accessible, but offers enough challenge. The events on the map are interesting to read and the choices you make remain risky. Additionally, you need to make sure you don't take too many detours because you can run out of gas if you don't collect enough. There is also a merchant where you can purchase resources and purchase inventory. The most important thing is learning the characters, which in itself happens fairly automatically. Based on that you can make a plan on the battlefield. Completing Days of Doom is quite a challenge, especially as the game only seems to get more difficult with each walkthrough.

You will often see that the lesser-known titles often score the best. Earlier we saw how cool the game Children of Silentown was, and this is just such a title. With a big crash in the middle part, I could enjoy myself for hours with this game. There isn't a lot of challenge in the puzzles, but I had a great time with the light platform elements in combination with the daily activities and adventures you experience. The animals that serve as NPCs are attractively designed and the game's graphics are beautifully put together. The fact that there is still some atmosphere missing in terms of audio should not be such a disaster. The many loading times that pass you by are a blemish on the high quality that they try to bring. The game mainly brings relaxation and will never put the pressure too high. Restful enjoyment is perhaps the most important thing here and it certainly succeeds.

Toodee and Topdee is a unique game that actually does almost everything right in its simplicity. It's nice that you can go both co-op and alone in the many levels of the game. In terms of replay value, you may not be able to finish the game again, but if you want you can also try to collect all the ladybugs that walk through the levels. Each chapter brings its new features, including blocks that fall down, or buttons that bring up or remove certain platforms. The bosses are also quite challenging, but by adjusting the difficulty you can still overcome each level quite easily. It is therefore up to the player to determine the balance, although the contrast between those difficulties is quite large.

8 / 10.0 - REPLIKATOR
Jul 17, 2023

After spending many hours on REPLIKATOR I personally notice that the game has 2 sides; One side is very positive. I'm mainly talking about the gameplay, which is accessible, yet challenging, and the other side is the light repetition that quickly plays up. At some point you will have seen the boarding of the rooms and the emptying of them. It is also a pity that you have to start the game over and over again when you die. It would have been more fun if the roguelike gameplay had an alternative option to just be able to replay the levels until the final boss. You do notice that you are getting further and further, but that sometimes takes too long to remain really interesting. However, REPLIKATOR is a unique title that can certainly be an excellent filler for the empty hours.

Hidden Through Time 2 is the perfect relaxation game. There are no time limits, scores, penalties or major mistakes you can make. You can also play the game nicely together, an extra pair of eyes certainly helps and makes the game even more fun. It looks very colorful and with editor and hopefully an active community you can expect many more levels. The only frustration here is when you can't find the item. I must have spent tens of minutes looking for a spoon before finally finding it in a very logical place. The feeling of victory was great after finally finding that spoon and that is why these types of books and games have been popular for years.

8.2 / 10.0 - Let's! Revolution!
Apr 10, 2024

Theoretically, Let's! Revolution! very little content. You play 10 levels and defeat the King who keeps tracking you down the levels before, and that's it. However, the characters and skills you unlock provide the challenge. In addition, you can increase the difficulty level to give you a little more challenge, without making the game really difficult. The visual representation of the game and the gameplay options and tactics you use take this game to a high level. Although a run feels conceptually the same, the skills still give the game an extra dimension, so you will soon be playing for dozens of hours. Let's! Revolution! This makes it a surprising game in my portfolio, which I really enjoyed and which also manages to live up to expectations on the console.

8.2 / 10.0 - Project Blue
Oct 19, 2023

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.

8.2 / 10.0 - Mortal Kombat 1
Sep 17, 2023

The gameplay of Mortal Kombat 1 is excellent and it is old-fashioned coarse. Blood, sweat and broken bones will dominate your screen for hours. This is also helped by the fact that the game looks more than fine graphically. The characters look detailed, just like the environments. The running of the characters in the cutscenes sometimes looks a bit crazy, but otherwise the game jumps off your screen. The story, especially for a fighting game, is also very rewarding and an excellent introduction to future games in this series. Invasion mode is nice for variety but not good enough to keep players busy for long.

Do My Best knows how to create a great game with The Bookwalker: Thief of Tales with a lot of original ideas and combinations of elements. The world and story is super interesting. You read all the dialogues here and you want to skip as little as possible here. The puzzles and gameplay is not super complicated, but this keeps the pace of the story nice. Each of the six books is about an hour of fun and this takes a little longer if you really try to check everything. A great game, especially when you consider that the studio is only two strong. Highly recommended and I'm really looking forward to the next game from this studio.

8.5 / 10.0 - Cat Quest III
Aug 6, 2024

It's refreshing to play a game where all the unnecessary padding has been stripped away. Cat Quest III by The Gentlebros is highly recommended and it even prompted me to look up the earlier parts. The game is an old-fashioned Zelda with a pirate and cat theme. The game looks nice and colorful and has its own style. The fights, the weapons, the wild extras and characters provide a great gaming experience. The fact that the game even becomes too easy at a certain point does not spoil the fun. Cat Quest 3 is a fun and light-hearted sequel that you should play alone or as a couple.

8.5 / 10.0 - BIT.TRIP RERUNNER
May 28, 2024

Bit.Trip Rerunner not only gives the original a major makeover, but turns it into a big party. It celebrates the history of the series with a lot of fun extras, 150 different levels with music from previous games and a very extensive level editor. This is not a simple remake, this is a game that the makers have put a lot of effort and love into. This makes it interesting for both fans of the original and new players who have never touched the series before. It even gives more insight into how the game was made. This is how a remake should be made!

8.5 / 10.0 - Baladins
May 14, 2024

Baladins is a very fun new twist on the choose your own adventure genre. The game looks very fun and cute and the many stories you can discover each have their own challenges. As a player you are really rewarded here for reading, discovering, talking and looking around. It also certainly helps that the story with the dragon is full of surprises and a round does not take too long. This way you can quickly play the game for fifteen minutes to see if you can make any progress. The finish is very neat and with a few small missing details here and there, there is little to complain about. I hope that we see this concept in many other themes and topics. If you like role-playing games, stories or puzzles then this is definitely a game you should play.

8.5 / 10.0 - The Land Beneath Us
May 12, 2024

The depth of this modest game that not many people will probably know, ensures that The Land Beneath Us will take many hours to complete. The Relics, the weapons, the upgrades that you can then make on both, the perma-upgrades in the Lab that you can purchase and the versatility of the gameplay and platforms on which you play ensure that you can have a lot of fun with this game . After about 5 hours of playing I was only through 4 levels and then I was only halfway through. After that it becomes a bit more challenging and you will have to spend many hours again. The small details, including the chips, the quests that you can complete separately, the teleporting and the ability to even skip turns, also make the game feel very versatile.
