This Netflix tie-in is an awkward adaptation, but a surprisingly smart strategy game.
Demanding but excellent combat and gorgeous visuals sit awkwardly in a half-baked roguelike structure.
A perfect balance of accessibility and strategic depth, elevated by charming visuals and buckets of personality.
An enthralling horror mystery that, outside of its relatively short length, doesn't seem to have suffered at all from the difficult circumstances of its development.
Innovative puzzle design and truly astonishing visual trickery make this puzzle game a must-play-even if it doesn't quite have the space to make the most of its best ideas.
Gorgeous and endearing, Rift Apart is a supremely likable adventure and a solid port-but at this price, it's hard to recommend over more substantial experiences.

Remedy's boldest experiment yet is a beautiful storm of surreal storytelling and genuinely frightening survival horror.
Relaxing and brisk, but lacking in the substance needed to please genre fans and live up to the SteamWorld name.
Despite its greater scale and visual splendour, this sequel fails to escape the shadow of its predecessor with a muddled tale that Senua herself feels out of place in.
An awkward story doesn't hold Capes back from being one of the best turn-based strategy games of recent years.
