Dreams is an unusual, unique game, though perhaps alluding a bit to freedom seen in Roblox. As in the titular dreams, almost anything can be created here. Here players realize their visions, referring to different styles and genres. You can spot a dream version of Crash Bandicoot, or the dreary corridors seen in demo version of P. T. from Kojima. Further along the way, you can visit Fallout universe, along with Pip-Boy, or the worlds of Dead Space, and, of course, countless original ideas.

In Dreams you can create puzzles, races, shootouts - amazing, inventive level designs that are limited only by the list of available objects. Dreams is essentially a recreational, or amateur, version of a game engine. The professionals commenting on the title admitted that they were surprised by its capabilities and affordability. The whole thing has a very intuitive interface, thanks to which everyone can create their dream game... if he has enough patience. Preparing something meaningful requires a lot of work.

The number 3 must be associated with some curse at Valve, because after many years of waiting we get two games from the legendary Half Life universe this year, but none of them are the mythical "three". Instead, here is a journey into the past. Black Mesa is a refreshed version of the first installment of the series, created for years by fans of the original with a chance to introduce new generations to one of the titles of all time, and to take veterans of electronic entertainment on a nostalgic journey.

Black Mesa started out as a mod for the original production and then spent five years on the Early Access program. That's a long, long time, but patience has paid off. Building on existing ideas, the developers refined level designs, difficulty levels, artificial intelligence of opponents, and object physics. Black Mesa is a real testament to the fact that "old games were good, and modern ones are not as good as they were"
