This series offshoot is a hectic, often overwhelming delight.
Irreverent, unpredictable, funny, and unputdownable, Denshattack! is anti-capitalist, pop-punk optimism distilled.
There is an ebb and flow to Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced: for every positive change the remake offers, it feels like there's a negative just beneath the surface.
Velan's conservative but accomplished remake goes all-in on spectacle to much success, even if the script could do with some wit.
Explore every inch of a cursed island in an adventure that takes inspiration from the greats.
007 First Light is less cerebral and replayable than IO's World of Assassination trilogy, but makes up for it with excellent fistfights and oodles of charm.
An intriguing response to one of Nintendo's greatest ever games.
The second game from Disco Elysium studio ZA/UM, this text-heavy, dice-driven RPG is an exquisitely constructed take on consumerism, empire, nostalgia and beyond.
An endless parade of references and gags that's difficult to resist.
