Tales From Candleforth impresses with its music, visuals and (mostly) logical puzzles, but falls short in both the story and scares departments.
Alone in the Dark is a scare-free horror experience, rife with technical issues, a nonsensical plot, and lacklustre performances from its two notable stars.
As Dusk Falls is a supremely confident first title from a talented indie studio, one that raises the bar for interactive narrative gaming by several notches.
Brothers ticks all of the same boxes of its 2013 predecessor, with the same powerful story beats, simple control system and stunning upgraded graphics, but fans of the original will be left mourning what could have been if more had been added to its luscious and varied world.

CLeM delivers a short but excellent point-and-click experience with some cracking puzzles and varied gameplay to make up for its compact size.
It’s taken a couple of decades, but Baldur’s Gate finally has a worthy sequel. While the sandbox it promises proves to be cunning legerdemain and the main story descends into another generic hero’s journey, the richness of your party and the side quests you encounter will keep you engaged for...
Spider-Man 2 is certainly bigger, but that comes at the cost of pacing. Miles Morales remains the tightest, leanest and best entry in the series, but there’s no denying that this full sequel to the 2018 hit is a visual treat.
Party Packs are nothing if not entertaining, but the tenth instalment only has a couple of titles that you’re likely to return to. Some players will enjoy this more than others, but it’s hard to recommend it over earlier packs in the series.
Oxenfree II is a slow-burn horror mystery that slowly latches its paranormal tentacles onto you, thanks to a creepy story delivered by a first-rate cast. It’s the definition of a superior sequel and fans of the first game will certainly not be disappointed.
Decarnation is a visual treat and indie horror fans will potentially love it, but throwaway gameplay elements and a bloated and sometimes confusing narrative results in an overlong and often uncomfortable game.
How do you remake a classic? Like this. Resident Evil 4 Remake is a superb action horror game that lovingly recreates and updates the original for modern audiences - and it should be on every gaming fan’s shelf.
If you have the patience to get through the first ten or so hours and tackle the multitude of systems it throws at you, Persona 4 Golden will reward you with a richly enjoyable JRPG experience, though the misogyny and homophobic content have really not aged it well.
