Transport Fever 2 Review - Good Sim; Poor Tycoon
game review11 December 2019
Three years seems about enough time to pin-point the shortcomings that stop a good game from being great. Have Urban Games managed to do just that, and is their new Transport Fever 2 a game to match the legendary Transport Tycoon?
Transport Fever 2 Review - Good Sim; Poor TycoonLuigi's Mansion 3 Review – A Lovely, Unremarkable Game
game review28 October 2019
Friends from the world of Mario and Luigi visited the haunted property three times and still haven't learned that it's not a good destination for holiday. Fortunately! Because Luigi's Mansion 3 is a good continuation on the Nintendo Switch platform.
Luigi's Mansion 3 Review – A Lovely, Unremarkable GameIf You Think Control is not Worth it – Think Again
game review27 August 2019
The latest game by the creators of Max Payne and Alan Wake hasn't been hugely exciting before the release, which is a pity – because it's definitely more than just a solid shooter.
If You Think Control is not Worth it – Think AgainFarming Simulator 19 Platinum Review – Old New McDonald hat 'ne Farm
game review28 October 2019
The popular Farming Simulator series has been known as the best crop harvesting simulator over the years. This time, we have decided to test the Platinum Expansion set dedicated to Farming Simulator 2019.
Farming Simulator 19 Platinum Review – Old New McDonald hat 'ne FarmSinking City Review – Sherlock Holmes vs. Cthulhu
game review05 July 2019
The authors of the series of games about Sherlock Holmes opted for the prose of H. P. Lovecraft and seem to have knuckled under to the power of the Great Old Ones. The Sinking City turned out a decent detective adventure, but not much more.
Sinking City Review – Sherlock Holmes vs. CthulhuWolfenstein: Youngblood Review – Not the Wolf We've Been Waiting For
game review29 July 2019
I hear every generation wants to change the world. The daughters B.J. Blazkowicz turned Wolfenstein into an RPG looter-shooter without loot. What came out of it? Let's just say that their father wouldn't be proud...
Wolfenstein: Youngblood Review – Not the Wolf We've Been Waiting ForReview of Borderlands 3 – Space Never Changes
game review02 October 2019
The cult series of looter shooters has returned to give us crazy firearms and tons of cannon fodder to kill once again. What's new in the world of armed Sirens and Space Vaults? Not much – and that's exactly what we wanted!
Review of Borderlands 3 – Space Never ChangesWarhammer: Chaosbane Review – A Casual Diablo 3
game review08 July 2019
Warhammer: Chaosbane, which was to enrich the hack'n'slash universe with creatures of the Old World, was an exciting idea. But bearing in mind the recent disappointment with the glitchy Warhammer: Vermintide 2, I had some reservations...
Warhammer: Chaosbane Review – A Casual Diablo 3Wanderlust Travel Stories Review – A Must-Read Game
game review26 September 2019
Wanderlust is an unusual and bold concept of a game based on the literature of the road. The courage of the artists, who created a game consisting mostly of text, deserves admiration. And recognition, too, because Wanderlust is simply a really good game.
Wanderlust Travel Stories Review – A Must-Read GameTerminator: Resistance Review – It's Not Perfect, but It's Definitely Not a Crap
game review16 November 2019
The new Terminator is surprisingly satisfactory. And we're not talking about the average film by Tim Miller, but about a fresh game from Krakow's Teyon – a developer who became notorious in the gaming industry with the infamous Rambo: The Video Game.
Terminator: Resistance Review – It's Not Perfect, but It's Definitely Not a CrapFIFA 20 Review – the Return of the Party Football King (Final Score)
game review20 September 2019
FIFA 20 once again proves that when it comes to playing with friends, nobody's got anything on this series. Unfortunately, things aren't so great with everything the game offers.
FIFA 20 Review – the Return of the Party Football King (Final Score)Meet 2019's Most Amazing Game – Disco Elysium, a Quirky RPG from Estonia
game review21 November 2019
[Review updated] A depraved cop investigates a degenerate industrial world, where racism is ubiquitous, the specter of communism fuels class struggles, and the good and evil are meaningless constructs. Disco Elysium, this year's most ambitious RPG
Meet 2019's Most Amazing Game – Disco Elysium, a Quirky RPG from EstoniaSong of Horror Review – Often Scary, but in the Wrong Way
game review29 October 2019
Song of Horror is a frightening game that focuses on classic presentation of action, sneaking, and solving puzzles. But was everything that frightens the player surely intended by the creators?
Song of Horror Review – Often Scary, but in the Wrong WayFire Emblem: Three Houses Review – Decent Tactical Adventure
game review25 July 2019
The Fire Emblem series has been well-known to fans of excellent tactical games for years. With Nintendo Switch's hybrid consoles, the taste of well-designed tactical has a chance to appeal wider group of players.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses Review – Decent Tactical AdventureStygian : Reign of the Old Ones Review – Lovecraft Doesn't Die
game review07 November 2019
Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones is one of those games you will love and hate at the same time – you just have to like the dense climate of Lovecraft's mythology and, like me, bear all the glitches that make completing the game neigh impossible.
Stygian : Reign of the Old Ones Review – Lovecraft Doesn't DieCrossroads Inn Review – in Desperate Need of Gordon Ramsey
game review23 October 2019
Crossroads Inn is a production from Warsaw-based Kraken Unleashed Studio, which brings an original gameplay formula – it puts the player in the role of the manager of an inn located by the key trade route in the fantasy world of Delcrys.
Crossroads Inn Review – in Desperate Need of Gordon RamseyLayers of Fear 2 Review – More Ambitious, but is that Good?
game review05 July 2019
An atmosphere which is not that spooky or terrifying but... quite strange, disturbing, literally "creepy." Layers of Fear 2 is not the Polish P. T., but a Polish TP. “T” for Twin, and “P” for Peaks.
Layers of Fear 2 Review – More Ambitious, but is that Good?Age of Wonders: Planetfall Review – Bartender! Civilization with XCOM please!
game review14 August 2019
The creators of the cult series have moved into the distant future, used their best practices and created a game that we'll be playing for years to come. Age of Wonders: Planetfall is a successful strategy that more than makes up for its shortcomings.
Age of Wonders: Planetfall Review – Bartender! Civilization with XCOM please!The Surge 2 Review – Futuristic Dark Souls
game review24 September 2019
The Surge is a properly realized, and distinctive game inspired by Dark Souls. Unfortunately, the inconsistencies in the mechanics and graphics departments produce some rather glaring issues.
The Surge 2 Review – Futuristic Dark SoulsThe Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt Switch Review – The Art of Compromise
game review14 October 2019
The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt for Nintendo Switch is an ugly duckling. CDPR goes for a compromise – we accept the mediocre graphics, and they bring the best RPG of recent years for a hand-held console. Don't say no.
The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt Switch Review – The Art of CompromiseAge of Empires 2: Definitive Edition Review – Old But Solid Gold
game review12 November 2019
Attractive, good, mature strategy game is looking for a player! Despite the twenty years that have passed, the new Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition still manages to deliver an amazing experience.
Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition Review – Old But Solid GoldThe Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening Review – Modern Oldschool Respecting the Original
game review27 September 2019
We never have enough of The Legend of Zelda. This time, Nintendo again revisits the past to brush off the one of the best hand-held adventures of Link – Link's Awakening, originally created in 1993 for the Game Boy.
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening Review – Modern Oldschool Respecting the OriginalBlair Witch Review – the Scariest Forest
game review03 September 2019
Bloober Team is a company that has become a synonym of horror for many people. Blair Witch is their first game developed under a license, but the devs were able to turn that into their favor, offering another successful title. Is it their best game yet?
Blair Witch Review – the Scariest ForestDarksiders Genesis Review – Looks like Diablo, but This Still is Darksiders
game review04 December 2019
Is there any point in releasing a spin-off prequel after three parts of the series – and switching to isometric perspective? Surprisingly – yes. Genesis is so good, in fact, that I wish it was the first game of this franchise.
Darksiders Genesis Review – Looks like Diablo, but This Still is DarksidersCall of Duty: Modern Warfare Review – Nearly the Best CoD Ever
game review30 October 2019
Modern Warfare may not have the best campaign in the history of the Call of Duty series, but it certainly sets the bar high for all subsequent shooters about war. Sets it very, very high.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Review – Nearly the Best CoD EverPlanet Zoo Review – Is This Even a Game?
game review05 November 2019
An excellent, fascinating and satisfying... job. Playing Planet Zoo is like going to work. You try not to get tired, then you get tired, and in the end you're happy with what you accomplished anyway.
Planet Zoo Review – Is This Even a Game?Ghost Recon: Breakpoint Review – Even Anthem was More Compelling
game review07 October 2019
Breakpoint is an unsuccessful, shapeless blend of ideas from all Ubisoft games. In the endless flood of virtual garbage to collect and buy, there was not even a trace of the cult Ghost Recon series.
Ghost Recon: Breakpoint Review – Even Anthem was More CompellingSniper: Ghost Warrior Contracts Review – Sniper Meets Hitman
game review26 November 2019
Sniper: Ghost Warrior Contracts is basically Hitman with a sniper rifle instead of a disguise. And generally, this combination works pretty well.
Sniper: Ghost Warrior Contracts Review – Sniper Meets HitmanThe Outer Worlds Review – RPG of the Year? Yeah, of 2012
game review22 October 2019
A year ago, Obsidian heralded The Outer Worlds on the wave of severe criticism of Fallout 76. Today, when Bethesda no longer provides the blanket of a terrible RPG release, things aren't so pretty anymore.
The Outer Worlds Review – RPG of the Year? Yeah, of 2012Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order – EA (Finally) Strikes Back
game review15 November 2019
After the great commotion caused by the first, fantastic episode of The Mandalorian, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order storms the gaming world. This is a production that brings new hope for the upcoming games in the famous universe.
