With major improvements over its predecessor, Anno 117: Pax Romana makes use of ray tracing technology for global illumination and reflections, creating a beautiful and immersive atmosphere. The gameplay has been refined, with the addition of new mechanics that add greater depth to the experience. However, not everything is perfect as the time required to complete each research task is quite long, which can lead to some fatigue due to the duration and the large number of points to unlock. Still, the game offers great rewards to the player.

Pokémon Legends: Z-A is the best game in the franchise in many years, but it still doesn’t update the formula enough for you to feel like you’re playing a truly modern version of what Pokémon should be in 2025. With its highs and lows, we hope that Game Freak has learned its lesson and will continue moving in the right direction from here on out.

Oct 24, 2025

Tormented Souls 2 delivers a survival horror experience focused on exploration, puzzle-solving, and an oppressive atmosphere.
