Hyper Light Drifter

"It wears its retro influences proudly on its sleeve, whilst also implementing its own character and flair."

Lovely Planet Arcade

"Although it's certainly challenging, the variety offered isn't huge."

Total War: Warhammer - Call of the Beastmen

"The race is just about different enough to warrant the opening of your wallet, especially if you're into hyper-aggressive tactics."

This is the Police

"We felt punished for our decisions throughout, and after a while, destined to fail."

Necropolis

"Necropolis is designed to be played with friends; playing alone can be frustratingly difficult."

Adrift

"Overall, in spite of some enjoyable moments and some sights to marvel at, Adrift felt a bit too much like the wrecked space station itself."

Democracy 3: Electioneering

"This isn't going to revolutionise the world but it certainly provides some food for thought despite its limitations."

10 Second Ninja X

"The ninja's nimble movements required a lot of patience and persistence to master, this despite having a simplistic control scheme."

Grand Kingdom

"This game may appeal to those who don't normally appreciate JRPGs, and its particular strategy is easy to get into, yet provides depth."

Zombie Night Terror

"Lead the zombies you create throughout various multi-tiered levels by clicking and pointing your army of undead towards tasty brains."

Ghostbusters

"Ghostbusters is a terrible game without depth and meaning, with mechanical flaws everywhere you look."

The Assembly

"This is a decent VR title, but it also stands up as a traditional adventure in its own right."

I am Setsuna

"Toyko RPG Studio has managed to craft an experience that feels like a lost JRPG classic rather than a modern day re-imagining."

Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book

"We'd like to think of this as an evolution, an alchemy experiment that mixes the old with the new."

Brigador

"You blow stuff up with a big gun, and really, when it comes to mech games, what more could you ask for!?"

Hawken

"If you're after a mech shooter to while away a few hours, look no further."

Pokémon Go

"It isn't without its flaws, but what's there is engaging, innovative, and most importantly, fun."

MilitAnt

"Being pretty much forced to auto aim removes a lot of the fun from what are otherwise good ideas."

Monster Hunter Generations

"Monster Hunter Generations builds upon its illustrious predecessor and refines the concept even further."

Song of the Deep

"You'll be instantly hooked by the game's alluring visuals and skillfully-crafted environments."

Dead by Daylight

"It's an atmospheric and frightening experience, one that has the ability to thrill and delight in equal measure."

Furi

"If you seek a true challenge with great design and gameplay, this game is for you."

Carmageddon: Max Damage

"It's the sub-par handling and non-existant car physics that cause the most damage."

Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII

"Ultimately it's a decent all round experience capable of satisfying genre newcomers and veterans alike."

Xcom 2 - Shen's Last Gift

"The story mission is fleeting but decent, and the new soldier class will change the dynamic of any mission."

7 Days to Die

"It would have been quite entertaining if it hadn't been for the technical side of things letting the team down."

Valentino Rossi: The Game

"It has enjoyable physics, and a whole lot of content. Milestone has clearly turned a corner."

Guilty Gear Xrd: Revelator

"It's the gem your fighter collection is missing. It's close to perfect and comes highly recommended."

Umbrella Corps

"Yet another watered down multiplayer game that doesn't quite seem to grasp what genre it belongs to, and which disappoints on all fronts."

Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens

"If you're not already tired of the concept you're practically guaranteed to have a good time."

The Technomancer

"It's a diamond in the rough that will be appreciated by fans of the genre."

Inside

"It's about the experience itself, the composition of exquisite ingredients which combined makes for one harmonious whole."

Kick Off Revival

"With the launch version feeling distinctly incomplete, at this stage it's hard to recommend."

The Solus Project

"You find yourself lost in the experience, and as tension builds a primal urge to keep going overtakes any frustrations regarding the pacing."

Trials of the Blood Dragon

"You get a handful of decent Trials tracks, and some amusing jokes, but the rest of the game is a mess."

Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games

"It's a combination of good and bad decisions where the good ones tip the scales in their favour by the skin of their teeth."

Salt and Sanctuary

"It's a singularly interesting experience that loses little for treading on some familiar ground."

Dangerous Golf

"We were left frustrated by the loading times in the solo mode, and given the nature of the gameplay loop, we think more work should have been done to optimise."

Mighty No. 9

"While it may lack the charm and originality of the platformers of yesteryear, Beck's first full length adventure is still an enjoyable one."

Chronicle: Runescape Legends

"The spontaneous interactions between your deck and your opponent's ensures that matches are tense and each one feels unique."

Dungeons 2

"Although its overall structure and quests may start to feel repetitive in its later stages, there is still much to be enjoyed."

Hearts of Iron IV

"For armchair generals looking to manage every facet of the war machine, there's enough depth here to keep you busy for months and months."

Dead Island Definitive Collection

"After playing more recent zombie games, especially Dying Light, it feels old and outdated."

One Piece: Burning Blood

"It takes some important steps away from Pirate Warriors and give players a more classic fighting game with some new ideas."

Sherlock Holmes: The Devil's Daughter

"In terms of what really matters - the cases, the narrative, the research - it keeps its promises."

Mirror's Edge Catalyst

"If you loved the original and just want more of the same, this will definitely keep you entertained."

Valkyria Chronicles Remastered

"Nitpicking aside, this is an updated version of a seriously under-appreciated game."

Anima: Gate of Memories

"...an entertaining title that caught our attention early on with its gameplay, and convinced us with its storyline before the end."

Hitman: Marrakesh

"There's two great story assassinations to play through in A Gilded Cage, and both offer up plenty of interesting opportunities."

Warden: Melody of the Undergrowth

"It works, and is worth spending an afternoon getting lost in, and that's exactly why we enjoyed being a Warden for a while."
