I would have liked Dogubomb to have made a touch more of this. When you end the day in Blue Prince, the game scores and categorises what you've created: a two or three rank affair with a lot of patios and greenhouses might get called a "Rustic Cottage", while a vast pile of Red Rooms including a Gym, Pool and Weights Room is a "Scarlet Athletics Center". It's the one aspect of Blue Prince I find humdrum: surely, Ros could have come up with more poetic descriptors than these, descriptors worth...
A well-wrought but draining and frustrating study of grief, recovery and rock music at the heart of Jakarta.
Warhorse's historical open world RPG makes Elder Scrolls feel shallow, but its deft feudal portrayal is checked by the routine boy's fable at its core.
A card game that manages the trick of feeling like a capital ship duel in Star Trek, hampered by some dull roguelite framing.
A smart, sporadically generic but on-the-whole exhilarating mixture of ideas from God Of War and Soulslikes.
A gorgeous and immensely absorbing metroidvania platformer that is both easy to get into and dense with secrets.
A short-lived yet slowburn sci-fi drama about two engineers exploring a spooky, beautifully designed Martian base that's let down by a general lack of inspiration and especially, a dissatisfying plot.
While crafted from familiar pieces, Capcom's latest shooter is an enjoyable combination of mechs, dinosaurs and general silliness.
A terrific Breath of the Wild follow-up with some brilliant new systems, amazing views and more dungeon-type spaces, plus a slightly deadening emphasis on gathering resources.
A miserable cocktail of ideas from other action-platformers and the worst parts of Rick and Morty.
