A massive action-RPG in a small package. A few misjudged dalliances with the past don't hold it back from a bright future.
Structural innovations and strong presentation, held back by grind and an old-fashioned business model.
An exciting, kinetic single-screen multiplayer with excellent level design, but little to reward the solo player.
Great in places, but never quite lives up to its potential. A competent sequel let down by inconsistency.
The most exciting multiplayer shooter in recent years, held back from greatness by its questionable staying power.
A few well-designed systems struggle to overcome lifeless presentation. Capable, but ultimately hard to recommend.
You can blow a Nazi to pieces among some lovingly-designed sixties furnishings and probably should.
Charming, clever and funny, this is one of the best new platformers on the PC at the moment. Recommended.
A little obtuse in places, but otherwise this is the best new RPG in years. Demands your time and your brain, but it's worth it.
Once more with feeling: this is a fine if familiar base game with great creative tools.
An adept and satisfying puzzle game with a narrative that requires a bit of player investment to yield its biggest rewards.
A great game and, with time, potentially a classic. Much rests on Frontier's ability to build on these broad but somewhat shallow foundations.
Wonderful writing resting on top of infirm foundations. Almost a classic, Sunless Sea falls a few leagues short of its final destination.
Restrictive design decisions sap the energy from a series that revels in it, and technical issues deal the killing blow.
Beautiful, well-written, and with an exciting finish, this is a strong start for Inquisition DLC.
A sandbox of extraordinary scope created with a masterful attention to detail. A patchy campaign doesn't spoil this wonderful, evocative city.
MachineGames are still masters of first-person violence, but this return to Castle Wolfenstein doesn't give them anything new to work with.
A beautifully designed, tough, and cheerful roguelike that rewards perseverance with a singular feeling of finesse.
The most any studio has done to open up a complex genre to a new audience. Inviting, entertaining, and deceptively deep.
A solid console adaptation of an intricate and rewarding competitive experience, but not without rough edges.
