Eastern Europe, vampires, and the developers of The Witcher 3, what an explosive cocktail! What could possibly go wrong? Just about everything. But not all at once. And therein lies the central drama of The
Once upon a time, back in the distant 2011 or so, I got a disk with the first Lego Batman game. The characters back then couldn’t talk, they just gestured, and it was a certain
Pragmata
Pragmata is not a game about robots. It’s a game about you. About me. About remembering that inside each of us there's a child who sometimes just needs a warm down jacket (even if it's the wrong size) and the right to go barefoot.
Tides of Tomorrow builds gameplay around a bold new feature, the asynchronous multiplayer, that will affect both your game and the game of the Tidewalkers to follow. Between the choices of your forerunner and your own decisions, no two playthroughs will be alike. And some decisions of your decisions...
The Alters
The Alters makes you think about the value of every life, even the "fake" ones, the burden of choice, and the fact that within each of us there are many unrealized selves. It's a powerful, emotional, and philosophical statement, packaged within complex, multi-layered gameplay.
Those willing to tolerate a dull beginning and archaic exploration for the sake of a stunning ending and deep (if imperfect) lore will have a blast in Arknights: Endfield. This is a game for fans of the Arknights universe and for those who seek narrative in gacha games, not just...
Lessaria a confident, solid, and respectful successor, perfect for a leisurely immersion. Rockbee Team studio's debut can be considered a success - they took a responsible approach to a complex genre and created a game that, despite all the minor rough edges, is capable of giving dozens of hours of...
Dying Light: The Beast is a ghost of a great franchise, competently executed but lacking the spark that once made it special. The game lacks the pioneering audacity of the original, and lacks the narrative ambition of the sequel. It's a grind that, despite its apparent dynamism, leads nowhere. On...
Silksong can be considered an excellent and even exemplary Metroidvania. It is damn nice to play while exploring every picturesque corner of the teeming world. It is gorgeously structured, the modified role-playing system, although it has become a little less diverse, is still pleasant. And the rebalanced battles of the...
The King is Watching is one of the most addictive roguelite strategies of this year. It has excellent visuals, humor and variability in settlement development. So far the game has problems with randomness and balance, but this only makes the playthrough more interesting.
Look Outside is an extremely original project and gameplay-rich masterpiece created in just half a year. The game offers deep narrative, a great variety of actions and possibilities, a multitude of endings, and much more. It is capable of delivering many indescribable emotions that are worth experiencing for yourself.
Doom: The Dark Ages
Doom: The Dark Ages is a good meaty shooter, but the change in the paradigm of the gameplay and its speed will not appeal to everyone. The fights are cinematic, impactful and beautiful, but instead of hurricane gameplay they now offer slow tactical bullet hell, and of course plenty of...
