Apr 18, 2025

Blue Prince offers a captivating blend of strategic gameplay and ever-evolving challenges, keeping you on your toes as you constantly question your next move. With its unique gameplay concept, no two runs are ever the same and every decision you make can lead to a completely different outcome.

The fusion of soulslike action and metroidvania-style exploration isn’t really a new thing, but every aspect around the core gameplay helps Mandragora to stand out as something truly special. Great visuals and audio, a very polished technical state, and a reasonable price make this a game you won’t want to miss.

74 / 100 - Atomfall
Mar 29, 2025

Freedom in problem-solving is the main feature of Atomfall, which nonetheless lacks a bit more originality and risk. Despite an interesting world and engaging story, the other elements of the game are not something that will be remembered for long.

The Karma Dark World is a well-optimized and visually stunning horror game that still fails to sufficiently distance itself from its influences.

Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii pushes the boundaries of the term "quirky", even for its own standards. It's just a shame it doesn't make better use of the entire pirate setting for an unforgettable sea experience.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows doesn’t change the rules of the game, but it showcases the series in its best form yet. Feudal Japan fits it like a glove, and the balance between stealth and action has never felt more natural. With a carefully crafted world and thoughtful mechanics, the blade of this series is sharp once again.

83 / 100 - Two Point Museum
Mar 12, 2025

Two Point Museum successfully places us in the role of a museum curator, and a pretty wacky museum at that. It is sure to bring you a lot of hours of carefully filling it with very imaginative exhibits.

It's an metroidvania game alright. Not a bad one, but not a great one either.

Civilization 7 feels like a new beginning for a beloved series. Although it simplifies a lot of its mechanics, which may not be of liking to old players, it still has that unique and fun addictive gameplay loop.

Eternal Strands won't set the world on fire, but you'll have fun doing it yourself while using your magic powers.

Sniper Elite Resistance carries over the fine qualities of its predecessor, but fails to provide a reason why you should play it over Sniper Elite 5. The franchise’s cracks are beginning to show, and innovations are necessary in order for the series to stay afloat.
