Almost perfect if not for the nitty-gritty. If it’s quite there but not enough to push the boundaries, it’s still an awesome game.

Super fast gameplay that translated pretty well in an open-zone environment.
You better have to choose if it’s worth spending your spare cash, because it might not be the game for you and it might be for others.
Kerbal Space Program’s selling price is moderately steep even during sale events, but the sheer amount of gameplay hours you can get from it is all worth it. The mere fact that there’s some real science going on behind the game is telling us that this game is no joke. It is frustratingly fun and it does make our inner rocketeers go all giddy every time we reach a new milestone in our space journey. It also gets updates regularly, just like with the addition of asteroid mining in the recent build of the game. We definitely mark Kerbal Space Program as a highly recommended game.
Overall, Enter the Gungeon may seem too hard of a game to enjoy and may drive off a lot of gamers, but it’s definitely on the top list for us. For one, the level of challenge it poses might be too high but the players are rewarded accordingly. It is a good time-killer because every run is just as fast-paced and action-packed as the last one, be it just a few minutes short or a full run of around an hour. Also, the amount of content alone provides hours of play and provides reasons to play it over and over again. The multiplayer adds in a twist in the gameplay that may or may not be beneficial, depending on the skill of your co-player. Enter the Gungeon is one polished game that we truly recommend.
Overall, Stellaris is pretty much a well-polished game even in its early-access period. For one, its developer has worked on several strategy titles such as Europa Universalis and Crusader Kings. It’s a great game for starters since even though its tutorial just touches the very basic aspects of its gameplay, players will learn the other aspects with relative ease by playing the game through and it does not bombard a newbie with a lot of information; so much so that it forces them away from playing. Stellaris is a good looking game with a lot of immersive content which would surely provide hours upon hours of gameplay. Basically, Stellaris easily gets the “Must Play” seal from us.
Overall, I Am Bread is a fun and truly challenging game if you don’t mind the amount of frustration it brings. Simple yet it can definitely give out hours of gameplay, depending on how much it would take before you reach your ragequit threshold. I Am Bread is highly recommended for anyone to give it a try, especially those gaming masochists who are into these kinds of will-crumblingly hard games.
Overall, I’m placing Lego Dimensions on my great games list. I’ve adored Lego ever since despite being just fairly new to the collecting part of it and I’m also fond of the humor that Traveller’s Tales placed into their Lego games even way back when the characters didn’t have full voice acting. So if you liked the previous Lego games, you would also like Lego Dimensions. Yeah, there’s the fairly high price tag on its packs but even after you finish the whole game, you still have the minifigs and bricks you can play with. And the minibuilds are so cute and so fun to build and you’re never really limited with what the instructions manual gives you. Also, new packs are still being released in waves and there are rumors that additional franchises might soon be included in the roster. I highly recommend it to young fans and AFOLs as well. Paraphrasing The Man Upstairs, the age range on the boxes is just a suggestion anyway.
The visuals are really simple which gives more focus on the gameplay. It’s quite essential for physics games to have graphics that compliment its game well and that it should avoid going over the top that it affects the game negatively, especially for not-do-high end rigs. Figuratively speaking, 0rbitalis‘ visuals is just the icing on the top of an already good cake.
