Norco
In conclusion, NORCO is a bit of a mixed bag. Whilst it looks and sounds stunning it is let down by a story that pushes itself so far out there that it has no way of coming back. Although already critically acclaimed this could be one of those games that...
Hello Neighbor 2 is a game that features advanced game design, so it’s no wonder things turned out like this—it’s a difficult game to make especially for a small team. But if anything, I think it is a step in the right direction for the game’s inevitable sequel. There’s no...
The Callisto Protocol is a gorgeous mess. I cannot recommend it at the full launch price. The combat is miserable, and the story is simply not interesting. If you are a massive fan of survival horror it lets you down by not being scary either, instead relying on jump scares...
As stated previously the in-mission voice acting is excellent. The mixture of humor and occasionally endearing moments of commiseration between the player characters helps carry what is otherwise an incredibly serious and dour affair. I did run into a LOT of bugs, all related to the game’s always-online nature. Error...
WRC Generations upgrades the general feel of Nacon’s yearly rally experience, tweaking the physics, handling, and smartly recreating the new challenges of the hybrid cars that are racing in the real-life series this season. The lower than usual price point is certainly very inviting, but it’s caused by the fact...
FIFA 23
In short, FIFA 23 makes a lot of great additions to the core gameplay, making the actual football feel smoother, more realistic and tactically more diverse, with the new AcceleRATE system in particular ensuring that fast players no longer dominate the online sphere. Tons of behind the scenes changes like...

In conclusion, without a doubt, this is the best Dark Anthology game so far and a true climax to season one. Not only fans of the series but fans of the genre will love playing this. The acting, visual detail, sound design and writing could not be bettered here. Series...
Evil West
Audio wise the game’s soundtrack is ok but not memorable. The voice acting is well done but cannot carry the subpar writing. The only major bugs I had in the game were audio as well with a particular lightning sound effect would get stuck and continuously play until either a...
Overall, Somerville feels like great ambition being stretched a little thin, and fundamentally, the way it feels to actually play makes me wish it spent a little longer in the oven, refining and polishing the best parts. Fans of the genre, and sci-fi fans in particular will absolutely find a...
From visuals and cinematics to the artstyle, this game is a markable improvement from prior Syberia games. The game doesn’t shy away from flaunting it, too, with many in-between cutscenes that ask the player to press a button to advance. I did notice some occasional funniness with the lighting and...
