Reviews

The final season's opener starts with a whimper but we're hoping it picks up speed.

While We Happy Few is dragged down by irritating missions, scarce-but-necessary resources, and technical blips from time to time, it’s a fun adventure that combines an eerie atmosphere and a gripping narrative to great effect.

The PC version of one of 2018's best games delivers the same thrilling hunts with some performance bumps and a few caveats.

Madness in the kitchen returns, but is made less frustrating with more forgiving gating and scoring systems.

Dying is never fun in games of this ilk, but Dead Cells' well-designed reward loop softens that blow and bolsters all subsequent runs.

The series' gameplay and selection of modes overcomes some of this year's less-than-stellar additions.

The Banner Saga 3 wraps up this bleak oddysey in a satisfying manner.

The title, inspired by Burnout's Crash mode, takes limited steps beyond the first Danger Zone.

A frenzy of fresh, fantastical fun.

Pirates of the Enchiridion comes up short in many ways, but I still did get to have an adventure in Ooo, even if it was flooded with both water and technical issues.

Earthfall is a pale imitation of its co-op action influences.

The Switch port of Wolfenstein II retains all the zany action and heartbreak of its console predecessor.

Far from the land of opportunity.

Mooncrash is Prey at its best.

This sad and powerful story is partially about the places we escape to, but even more about the situations we escape from.

Whether you want a unique side-scroller to play alone or a teamwork-emphasizing experience to play with a friend, this is worth a look.

This gothic action/RPG has plenty of ambition, but it doesn't have the polish to bring its big ideas together.

In this park, dinosaurs do eat the guests.

This game makes an early exit out of center court.

A slow, story-driven experience that offers meaningful player choice, and succeeds with its world building and plot twists.
