Last Day of June wants you to feel a certain way, but the way it goes about it is clumsy and haphazard, and the visuals are unsettling.
While the game is nice to look at and can be fun to play, the technical issues and objectification of its characters keep it from really shining.
Another Lost Phone: Laura's Story is the follow up to A Normal Lost Phone and it may actually be worth a look, but not for the reasons you are likely to suspect.
Good addition to an already good game, just don't expect any real change ups to what came before.
Nioh slips onto the PC and is as great as it was on the PS4, with DLC and some minor control issues.
A neat game that would be better on mobile than literally anywhere else.
Yakuza 6: The Song of Life is everything I want in a Yakuza game, plus a baby… and a cat café.
Atelier Lydie and Suelle: The Alchemists and the Mysterious Paintings succeeds in important ways, but a lack of polish really takes away from an otherwise great experience.
Seven: The Days Long Gone does a few things very well, but none of them involve the mechanics or gameplay at all.
It's got style, it's got grace, it's going to punch you in the face.
While Extinction is technically a game, I'm pretty sure it's an April Fool's prank gone too far.
Derivative, clumsily executed, but hauntingly beautiful. Crank the music and bathe in the scenery before you start talking to people.
It's fast and fun; satisfying and elegant. You won't want to put Dead Cells away.
Shadow of the Tomb Raider doesn't do a lot new. It has some big problems as far as story and themes are concerned, but it remains a fun experience at the end of the day. If you're already a fan of the series, you find more what you enjoyed before, but new players are better served in the previous entries.
People will call Donut County an indie darling, and those people will be right.
Guacamelee 2 is a gorgeous, fun game with a sense of humor that makes me want to cry.
The Bard's Tale IV: Barrows Deep is not a perfect game by any respect. It's the first mainline sequel to a franchise that is over thirty years old, and this iteration certainly stumbles. However, what is here is a solid game with clever writing, strong characters, and a wonderful world of misfits and misadventures. The game needs patches, and an overall layer of polish, making it feel rushed and shoddy. If you're on the fence, give it some time to get its ducks in a row before you commit to a purchase.
Battletech Flashpoint isn't really a must own expansion, but it is certainly worth it for players looking for more.
While not quite a homerun, Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2 is a fun, tactical space combat experience with some nice story to boot.
While Different than past installments, Metro: Exodus is still worth a look
