Prey's level design is one of the best I have ever experienced, and it is a result of the overall gameplay, physical level design, atmosphere, and sound that make it extraordinary
Super Rude Bear Resurrection doesn't treat death as a punishment, but rather as an equalizer to the harsh difficulty.
I'm sure some might be a bit offended by what's on display, but this game is rated M for some very good reasons.
Dawn of Andromeda, however, makes you play the long game: enemies are virtually unable to rush you in combat as they are hindered by the same tech tree you are and this means the biggest rewards come later in the game.
The Butcher is Transhuman Design's grimy homage to the hardcore metal-shooters of the 90's
Moonfall does a lot of things not necessarily wrong, but to a lower quality than you might hope for in a purchased product. It's Fishcow Studios' second published title, so there's hope for improvement in the future.
The Caligula Effect has a turn-based battle system that is refreshingly fun.
The beautiful, hand-crafted game worlds are a single error away from being awash with your blood.
Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War III is an enjoyable, challenging and rewarding RTS experience. Not everyone will be enamoured with its MOBA-flavoured gameplay, but there is no denying it makes for some frenetic and action-packed battle goodness much of the time.
________________________ “It's a simple premise that's executed using straightforward mechanics.
The various modes in the arcade truly flesh out the game allowing players to enjoy Tetris, Puyo Puyo, or both at the same time in an enjoyable and well thought-out manner.
There is a fantastic game buried in there somewhere and one good patch and a price drop are all it needs to be worthwhile.
It's not so much that I was left wanting more, but rather that I wasn't fully satiated with what I had.
Outlast 2 features audio that is constantly slithering up your spine and teasing you with a fright that may or may not pop out at any moment.
The experience is short, but ultimately well constructed. The ending has a very M. Night Shyamalan feel to it – you'll get some closure, but you'll also want more! Yes, What Remains of Edith Finch is essentially a walking simulator – but with a unique story, some very interesting sequences and some fun "game" moments, it's the best one I personally have had the pleasure of playing.
There's a greater depth to the level design than you get with most other shooters of this quality.
I commend the developer for taking on such an odd corner of literature and creating a unique story inspired by a Bohemian author.
Little Nightmares takes the budding “hide-and-seek-horror” genre to another level by implementing a visual style that is both grotesque and inescapable.
Making me wander over to the shop to purchase a stat upgrade already behind a progression gate is so pointless.
Short, contrived, and occasionally frustrating; Episode 4 of New Frontier is so far the weakest of the bunch, and it's up to the game's finale to bring this entry back to the top of its game.
