Chinh Tran's Reviews
Runic Games is to be lauded for taking a bold chance when the company could have simply revisited familiar grounds with another Torchlight.
ELEX does little to break new ground in the RPG genre. Fortunately, the core aspects that make a solid RPG are done expertly by Piranha Bytes and this results in a world that is worth exploring.
Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles has a lot to offer but key strengths are hampered by several shortcomings and seasoned gamers may find the experience too simplistic and repetitive. However, if you're looking for a relaxing game with little pressure and one you can easily get lost in, Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles is a strong candidate.
Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite will not vault Capcom back to the top of the fighting game mountain, but what's there proves the company still know how to compete in an increasingly crowded genre and is generally a step in the right direction.
Overall, though, Absolver’s core systems are very strong and I am eagerly looking forward to revisiting the Adal Empire when Sloclap drops new content.
Although Oneoreight Studios has put together a competent game with promising ideas, the potential is never fully realized.
Fans who yearn for a strong, classic Castlevania experience will do well to consider Slain: Back from Hell.
Playing Tribute Games' Ninja Senki DX is very much like reliving the past of videogames and revelling in its joy and simplicity.
Although elements of the game can become repetitive or frustrating, Black Desert Online does provide a staggering amount of content and is well worth considering if you're looking to try out a new MMORPG.
Those who need a strong narrative or a lengthy, replayable experience will end up being disappointed, but as a platformer with powerful music and unique visuals it's well worth adding to your wishlist.
Even though it is short and repetitive, The Town of Light's powerful, mature story along with its strong presentation makes it a worthwhile experience.
Zombie Vikings' vast array of unique weapons and different playable characters combines to create an enjoyable old-school romp through a twisted Viking epic.
Despite limited game modes, it is easy to learn while at the same time offers a deep, strategic, and satisfying experience.
Sword Coast Legends is a straightforward, average game with some unique and interesting ideas that are yet to be fully realized.
In its current state, Street Fighter V offers brilliant core gameplay and presentation coupled with patchy amounts of content.
An ode to the Souls series as well as an excellent Metroidvania game in its own right.
EA DICE succeeds in creating an easy to pick up and learn first person shooter, but this comes at a cost to depth of play and strategy.
Heroes of the Storm can improve with future patches, and will have to do so if it wants to compete with more established titles in this fiercely competitive genre.
Whispering Willows proves that simplicity, atmosphere, and a strong narrative can go a long way to creating a memorable gaming experience.
A worthwhile albeit short experience.
