Vikings: Wolves of Midgard struggled hard for this score. On top of a lack of clarity in the puzzle elements (which, we admit, might be on us), the game has some more obvious flaws. While it offers a few fantastic moments, these are unfortunately a little too few and far...
Overall The Ringed City was lots of fun, and even towards the very end the studio succeeds in surprising us with some interesting ideas. However, familiar themes from the series are recycled and partly copied. This didn't have too much of a negative impact on our experience, but we know...
Generic quests and below average gameplay mechanics and story make Toukiden 2 a very dull experience, one which successfully reproduces the Monster Hunter formula only in part, leaving important elements by the wayside to the detriment of the experience.

Team Ninja manages to combine many of the features of the Souls series with something different and unique of its own. It's not up there with the best of what From Software has produced, mainly due to the weakness it shows in storytelling and the general presentation, but it is...

Having said all that, we'd still say that overall Seasons After Fall is an enjoyable experience that has been cleverly presented. The gameplay ultimately ends up feeling a little bit too repetitive to enjoy over longer sessions, but Swing Swing Submarine has created a well rounded adventure with a story...
Game Freak's clearly put a lot of love into the smaller details of the game, and the character design really catches the imagination, much like the best of the 90s explosion of adventure titles. It offers the clean if not wholly spectacular fun you'd fully expect from this type of...
To sum up: Bloodborne brings together some of the strongest elements of the Souls series while adding to the formula with its own ideas and unique style. The gameplay is as demanding as ever and the new dungeon mode just adds more content. The game's more accessible in some places,...
