ActRaiser Renaissance's plastic look betrays a solid remake with a lot of new content, and plenty of heart.

Although the playable roster of The Hinokami Chronicles is feeling the lack of demons right now, there's a lot to enjoy from the characters who are there. This 3D fighter delivers on the promise of a power fantasy of Gotouge's manga epic.

Impostor Factory's emotional story might have a slightly tired formula, but it feels fresh, and posits that a fake life can be as fulfilling as a real one.

Despite bugs and queue times, Amazon Games' new MMORPG is good piratey fun (especially the Faction system), but the early game is very grindy.

Ten years on, it's well worth making the trip back to Bright Falls, but Alan Wake Remastered has little to tempt PC players over the original Steam release.

Jett: The Far Shore is an evocative adventure that feels brilliant under the thumbs, but one whose creative systems feel stifled by rigid story-telling.

The Eternal Cylinder is a charming survival adventure outing for Ace Team’s world and character design, but with more under the cylinder than you expected.

Lemnis Gate's time loop rounds are an intriguing concept for a multiplayer shooter but it ultimately fails to excite.

A gigantic open-world FPS that has you running between map markers to fell a dictatorship. It's undeniably fun, if a bit overwhelming.

There's no faulting its art, but underneath Astria Ascending is a tedious, repetitive RPG whose insipid story and cringey voice-acting make it difficult to bear

I loved the weird beauty of Sable, but there are a lot of small irritants piling up and - perhaps worst of all - your bike just isn't fun to drive.

It's a refreshing take on the cyberpunk genre, but in a game that relies on conversation, Gamedec's jargon-y dialogue soon becomes a confusing mess.

The Amazing American Circus is a deckbuilder with a neat thematic twist that soon becomes mired in repetition and drawn-out encounters.

I Am Fish is a fun physics platformer with clever levels, a bit of puzzling, and a terrifying man wearing a farmer's cap.
