Getting medieval in a gritty recreation of 1400s Bohemia.

This aquatic survival game is an underwater wonder.

A lightweight tactical-action game with plenty of personality but lacking significant challenge.

Aperture Science technology adds some crazy paths to victory in this smart puzzle game.

Illogical puzzles are scarier than the dark secrets in this house of horrors.

Great story and worldbuilding stuck in the ruins of a technical disaster.

A skillfully modernized rendition of retro JRPG goodness.

Creative Assembly discovers a new world of story-driven campaign and fun factions.


StarCraft remains a titan of the genre for a reason. Though its interface lacks some contemporary conveniences, Blizzard has still, to this day, failed to outdo itself in terms of the elegant balance between three highly asymmetrical factions that was achieved in Brood War. Whether you want to revisit the glory days or see a piece of gaming history for the first time, StarCraft Remastered is a trip well worth taking.

The stars of deep tactical gameplay and memorable choices align in Supergiant's epic story.

When the bones hit the dirt, I'd rank the Necromancer highly in terms of sheer fun factor and uniqueness when compared to Diablo 3's other classes. I do feel like $15 might be a bit much to simply unlock a new class, especially when so much of the new stuff in this patch (like some new areas for adventure mode) is being released for free. If it's within your budget, though, I don't think you'll be disappointed with the new playstyles and crazy strategies Rise of the Necromancer brings to Sanctuary.

Developing a love/hate relationship with blowing up (and getting blown up by) robots in this attractive twin stick shooter.

Perpetually looking for group in the otherwise admirable magic brawler.

An unlikely licensed shoot-em-up that, like its protagonists, has good ideas but imperfect execution.
