Much like Braid, The Witness is a game design triumph. It takes great ideas and runs with them, all the while delivering visuals and themes that are just as strong as the gameplay at its core. Many titles released this year will be hyped as 'must-play' experiences — but few will...
For those curious in the title, though, Gravity Rush Remastered manages to improve upon the Vita original in nearly every way, while retaining the charm, stellar soundtrack, and innovative ideas that made Gravity Rush an award-winning game to begin with. As we wait for Gravity Rush 2, Gravity Rush Remastered should be...
Crashlands
Crashlands may not be as in-depth as some players may want, but the game is an entertaining action RPG romp that uses crafting mechanics without becoming tiresome. What’s more, the game is a laugh riot, and the wonderful tone of the title easily makes up for any technical shortcomings. With...
Darkest Dungeon is one of the best roguelike games to be had, and anyone who enjoys a challenging dungeon crawler will find themselves playing adventure after adventure with rotating rosters of forlorn heroes. At its heart, Darkest Dungeon is Lovecraftian horror of the finest caliber - it's unforgiving, brutal, and filled...
In terms of 2.5D stealth games, Assassin's Creed Chronicles: India may not live up to recent titles like Stealth Inc., but the game definitely offers enough challenging puzzles to be worth the $9.99 price tag. Dedicated fans of the Assassin's Creed franchise will get more out of the title thanks...

Tharsis is a game for those who love tabletop gaming and a challenging experience. At its heart Tharsis is as unforgiving as it is entertaining, but it offers very little variety in terms of the overall game. There's one ship and a limited selection of crew members to unlock, and players...
A major perk over the Rock Bands of the world is the lack of peripherals and external hardware. This game doesn't require anything more than a console and a standard controller, but still manages to make players feel like they are in control of a full band. The title seems...
The real question is whether the game is best played on the Xbox One. Given that it's missing some content included in the Final Cut version released for the PC, that might not be the case, especially since personal preference might swing towards mouse and keyboard controls. However, the experience...
Overall, Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition shows that PC role-playing games can transfer over to the most recent console generation with relative ease. Although there are a few bumps here and there, with some awkward controls at times, the game's co-operative experience is easily enough to outweigh the negatives. This...
Although it doesn't attempt to redefine the third-person action genre, Just Cause 3 does an excellent job putting a fresh spin on the usual tropes and delivers some of the most exciting explosions we've ever seen in a video game. The sound of every gun and explosion are incredible and...
