Cocoon
Few games have fascinated me the way Cocoon does with its metre-thick atmosphere and reality-distorting challenges. It's an alien among its earthly peers, and even when it draws on a classic series like The Legend of Zelda, it twists the concepts we know so well, such as requiring you to...
With a bare bones selection of heists, unresponsive menus, and helpless AI, Payday 3 struggled to make for a glowing first impression. In its present state, it largely lacks polish and this overshadows a lot of what it gets right in terms of giving players a rich tool set and...
Bomb Rush Cyberfunk was created by people who obviously have the same love for Smitebit's quirky classics as I do. It's a huge homage to Jet Set Radio and Jet Set Radio Future, and if you liked those two games, Bomb Rush Cyberfunk is a must-have. And if you liked...
The model of annual updates for sports games has long been debated, but EA and other developers have often defended themselves by claiming that they were delivering a better product with more features. That's simply not the case this year. On the pitch, despite better animations and a few nice...
Otherwise, this is a great party game that is easy to recommend. It is fun both online and offline, the presentation is fantastic and the concept is created in such a way that it is almost always exciting (eliminated teams can, for example, make it difficult for opponents by throwing...
If you can look past the annoying and, in my opinion, unethical elements of "Super deal of the day!" and resist the loot box temptation, there are many wonderful hours to be found here. It is a seven in the end but the rating could have been even higher because...
All in all, Phantom Liberty and the 2.0 update give CD Projekt RED's title a second life. And while many may already consider their time in Night City to be over, this new story may give you more than a few surprises.
Had they chosen to focus on these things along with the solid basketball experience and unparalleled presentation, this could have landed a really high score. But with such a strong focus on extracting money from me, they are instead extracting joy from me. What could have been a perfect sports...
When I now summarise the package that NetherRealm Studios offers, I am overall very satisfied. Mortal Kombat is back with a vengeance, and the developers have really dared to modify both gameplay and overall framing and present everything with great graphics. The campaign is so good that everyone should play...
There's no denying that The Crew Motorfest has some serious competition in the open-world racing space, and looking at my time with the game, two things are apparent. First, the game isn't currently at the same level of quality and structure as that of Forza Horizon 5, which is a...
But if you're into puzzle games where even the smallest can be a challenge, Trine 5: A Clockwork Conspiracy is a really good game to pick. It's beautiful, there are plenty of good puzzles, and it works well both alone and with a few friends on the sofa.
Yet, I'm not going to tell you that Fae Farm is a gamechanger in the life-sim space. Within a few hours of playing this title, I get the same impression as that of first booting and starting a Disney Dreamlight Valley or My Time at Portia adventure. It's nothing we...
