Alien: Rogue Incursion on the Meta Quest 3 is a fine game. Although the graphical compromises compared to other platforms are significant, I still had quite a good time playing this title. Unfortunately, the ending of the game really bored me, and running around the map just to extend the gameplay time is something I always consider a big downside in any title. Despite these flaws, I can recommend this game and I suggest reserving multiple shorter play sessions instead of one long to avoid falling victim to tedious backtracking.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is undoubtedly a game of its own kind. On one hand, it maintains the complexity expected from simulators, while on the other, it offers many solutions found in games of other genres. This makes it a title not only for hardcore gamers seeking the utmost realism, but also one worth considering for more casual players, regardless of the type of experience they seek.

Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter is truly a successful sequel. If you liked the first part, you'll get an experience here enriched with elements that players have been waiting for. This title is bigger and more advanced than the original, yet it still adheres to the mechanics that were loved. However, the experience might be slightly cumbersome for players unfamiliar with the series. The artistic style might suggest a game aimed at a younger audience, but the high difficulty level on default settings will quickly test the player's skills.

Every encounter raised my adrenaline, and while hearing the roar of approaching monsters, my hair stood on end more than once. Metro Awakening is not one of the best game on VR hardware, but also one of the best titles I've played in recent years.

Most players expected Dynasty Warriors: Origins to be another action slasher based on a well-established formula. However, the developers decided to diversify the game by adding several fascinating innovations and improvements, which gave the series a second wind. This ensures that the game will not only reach the old fans tired of its repetitiveness but will also attract a significant number of new followers. It's definitely a game worth playing.

I am disappointed with Boti: Byteland Overclocked. Initially, I was genuinely interested in it and was hoping for a strong platformer title. I got that to some extent. The colorful, eye-catching art style is, however, overshadowed by a plethora of frustrating bugs. The short gameplay time doesn't allow you to fully enjoy the world, which actually holds quite a bit of potential.

Eternal Strands is a wonderful game. There are numerous physical interactions between objects, which means that even when tackling the same task, you can complete it in many different ways. Although there are some signs of budget constraints, the quality of execution surpasses many AAA games that proudly wield that label. It's not perfect, as the backtracking really got to me. However, considering all the feelings derived from the gameplay, I had an excellent time. I can only congratulate Yellow Brick Games on their fantastic debut. I hope we will see a sequel.

BattleTanks AnimalWars, in my opinion, is a good game focused on local multiplayer gameplay on a single screen. The title is excellent for parties with friends or family, providing a full range of emotions that come with competing against people next to you. Unique camera mechanics allowing to create a different gameplay experience should be praised, as well as the unusual game modes which are very exciting.

Nine Sols is one of the best indie games of 2024! The title excellently blends mechanics from Hollow Knight and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Warning! It's very demanding, so expect sweat and tears...

Marvel Rivals, despite accusations of being an Overwatch clone, defends itself very well. The frustration with bugs and the frequent disorganization of my team are just minor issues that can be fixed. I want to keep playing and come back for more!

I am delighted that during my adult life, I was able to return to Nosgoth once again. However, this nostalgic journey wasn't perfect due to the presence of both technical and visual bugs in the game. Nevertheless, one can overlook these issues because the game's atmosphere, world-building, and story more than make up for it.

During the game, I had a really good moments, as the battles with bosses can be very satisfying. The interesting combat system and well-designed characters and bosses are unfortunately not enough. A good RPG should also have an interesting world, engaging side quests, and diverse locations. Unfortunately, Fairy Tail 2 lacks all of this, appearing as if it was made in a haste. It's a pity because the game had a lot of potential that was not properly utilized by its creators.

Besiege Console Edition, although not outstanding, is a very enjoyable title, perfect for quiet winter evenings. The game works well both in short sessions and during longer ones. The only thing left to complete the experience is hope that the mentioned technical issues will be fixed in the future. I wholeheartedly recommend Besiege to fans of construction, destruction, and those who love to tinker!

Songs of Silence is a bold attempt to refresh the somewhat stiff genre of turn-based strategy games. It shines bright at the start, but unfortunately, the title loses appeal eventually due to the shallowness of its systems.

The Thaumaturge blew my mind. Since Vampyr, I've missed a dark tale that captivates with its sad and gloomy city atmosphere. This time, we're dealing with Warsaw, which makes this title even more appealing to explore. The biggest flaw of it seems to be the combat system, which requires significant refinement. Despite that, I still had a lot of fun.

Songs of Conquest, contrary to first impressions, is not a modernized version of Heroes, despite many similarities. This game aims to carve out its own path and isn't afraid of innovative solutions. It's one of the few titles from this year that I will continue playing even after writing this review, as the game is incredibly engaging. Even when your eyelids are closing because of fatigue, the syndrome of "just one more turn" keeps circling in your head, asking you sneakily to play even more.
