Two instant classics, one remote-only oddball, and a whole lot of party magic. Jackbox Party Pack 11 is a super return to form for the long-running series.
Ghost of Yōtei refines everything that made Tsushima memorable, with improved traversal and combat, and a haunting, vertical world that rewards exploration and reflection. Atsu’s journey is a polished, emotionally resonant open world experience and a brutal reflection on revenge.
Rosewater rides easy in the saddle, trading sharp puzzles for rich characters and slow-burning charm. It’s a warm, rambling tale where companionship outshines the chase.
A gripping slow-burn of oil-slicked horror and atmosphere, Still Wakes The Deep delivers mood in spades — but its shallow gameplay and heavy hand-holding keep it from drilling deeper.
A disappointing conclusion to an excellent first chapter. Rage rushes through its plot, squanders emotional beats, and leaves too many questions unresolved.
Your House offers up a combination of accessible and tricky puzzles couched in an interesting story and a tactile, enjoyable series of escape room chapters.
The first tape in Lost Records: Bloom & Rage is a beautifully crafted return to the narrative genre for Don’t Nod. Veteran players will feel right at home, while newcomers should prepare for a dialogue-driven, richly observed, and poignant study of ’90s nostalgia and teenage angst.
Survey Scramble offers bite-sized, streamlined polling games for all the family across four different modes. They may be variations on the same theme but it’s an enjoyable aperitif while you fight over which other Jackbox games to play.
There’s plenty of potential in this first Naughty Pack. Hopefully it will be successful enough to encourage the development of something newer and more substantial in future instalments.
Astro Bot
Astro Bot is a truly remarkable feat of platforming, and one which puts the wonder back into gaming in a way that very few titles manage.
The gaming equivalent of an alleycat: it’s rough around the edges, but you’ll learn to grow fond of it despite its numerous quirks.
Broken Roads has elements of a great RPG, but they’re buried beneath a broken quest system, tedious combat and numerous bugs.
