Wolverine lets loose in Insomniac's latest Marvel Superhero adventure. The story is enjoyable if not overstuffed, and the combat gives out as much as you want to put into it, though I do wish the bosses were less spongey. Check out our review!
Hellraiser: Revival is dialed up to 11 from the first moment that shows a faithful adaptation of the core story, but with a one note story and no breaks from the horror creates a somewhat monotone experience.
The Order of the Sinking Star is a puzzle game of pushing blocks whose continual mechanic escalation makes it a must-have for puzzle game fans.
End of Abyss impressed us with its sprawling environment with rewards around every corner but felt ourselves getting too powerful early on, robbing the experience of some of its tension.
Orbitals
Orbitals delivers an enjoyable but very linear story filled with a wide variety of puzzles that highlight Shapefarm's ability to create a multitude of creative scenarios with just a few tools.
Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy is an enticing mystery where you'll delve through rooms of puzzles and fast flowing combat to reveal the mystery of the Minotaur. Check out our review!
REANIMAL's first DLC The Prisoner is out today. You'll return to a war-torn city with new protagonists, but I think it might be best to wait for all of the DLC first.
Halo: Campaign Evolved is a great modern adaptation of Master Chief's maiden voyage. If the Bonus Missions are a sign of what's to come, I'm excited for the future of Halo
Dive deep into a murder mystery where you'll have to track the movements of victims through a house to uncover the true culprit in The Incident At Galley House, check out our spoiler-free review!
The Remake Of The End Of The Greatest RPG Of All Time is an escape room masquerading as a multi-level RPG about the final hours of a RPG, indie development, and fan backlash to treading on 'sacred ground'.
Echo Generation 2 continues the amazing worldbuilding of the original, introduces fun deckbuilding combat that feels like a puzzle at time, but fails to really bring together the multiple plotlines in an exciting way.
Directive 8020
Directive 8020 does a lot correctly, but tends to get in its own way instead of letting the player sit in the uncomfortableness. The new Turning Point system makes exploring new outcomes a breeze.
