Chernobylite Review
Imagine a horror game taking place in a real-world place full of history and bad radioactive energy. Every time you die, you wake up in a dream landscape where you can see how the most important decisions you have made are interconnected and how everything will change because they use Chernobyl shards as payment for the interdimensional gods who are forced to run the show. It is not easy for a game to reveal the workings of its electoral system, but given the Chernobyl network's vast range of choices and possible outcomes, the developers were right to flaunt them.

The Ascent Review
There are many opportunities to improve your character with a variety of skills, but I don't think I've ever really understood how to improve, nor has it helped me in any tangible sense. Weapons and armor are designed to defend together against different elementary resistances, but the game does not adequately explain how to equip each one for each task, why some kind of weapon works better against a particular enemy, or why an achievement emerges to celebrate a combination. In fact, there are a lot of small factors that make The Ascent look more like a PC game than an Xbox Series X showcase, as it turns out.

Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut Review
Ghost of tsushima has a solid history around jin in terms of value, but introducing a new segment in act 2 seems a bit strange when you have walked the dlc structure of most games. The expansion of the original story in directors cut begins when jin discovers that a mongolian leader named eagle has planned an attack on tsushima and he has to come to the island and jump aboard the ship to stop him. The general story of the nearby island of iki, the mongolian attempts to gain a foothold, and the jins "struggle against the mongols through open battles and evasions is not too different from the story in the main game.

Age Of Empires 3 Definitive Edition: The African Royals Review
A few weeks ago Age of Empires III was released, which introduces two new civilizations, new historical battles and 15 African maps and AI allies. The final edition of the game has two new African civilizations, and on August 2, the African royals will be among them. You can accumulate influence in various ways, such as owning large amounts of cattle and a few of the games new buildings.

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice Review
It is the nuanced depiction of psychosis that makes Hellblade so special. Games often go wrong with these kinds of things, but Ninja Theory has done its homework with a documentary called Beyond the Screen, in which the studios chat with a Cambridge professor and psychosis patients in the hope that players will understand psychosis through the interactivity the game offers. The Myth of the Norse Meets the Celtic transforms a heroic story into a psychological character study that follows the quest of young warrior Senua to go to hell and regain a beloved soul.

Godfall Review
As great as the fight is, Godfall focuses too much on repetitive encounters and grinding progress, and I couldn't sit down and use the replay to elicit much value from the game for every square foot of its levels. The style has little substance and the promise of the bombastic opening fades with repetitive missions a little too quickly. An endgame where you reckon you can take your time to get through in a single weekend if you take your time. It could be a dark story to me if the game was smooth and fluid and I was tempted by mediocre gameplay and a story that was engaging, but as it is, it offers a bad world until you realize how beautiful the world is, how pathetic it is.

Hades Review
With a boundless spectrum of character interactions and plot sequences, Hades continues his story over many hours as you guide your character from one escape attempt from hell to the next. Every run represents an attempt to escape from the underworld and onto the surface of the mortal world, from Lord Hades himself to your unknown mother. Your frequent attempts to escape his grasp make this one of the best games you will play this year.

The Falconeer: Warrior Edition Review
I've reviewed numerous one-man teams of games, and the visuals of The Falconeer are not something to miss. But I want to get up close and personal in this review with the characters and locations of the game and explore the islands and destinations and the fact that the game is so impressive even with the smallest manpower is a miracle.

Road 96 Review
Road 96 is set in the summer of 1996 and tells the story of a young teenager who wants to escape petria, a nation whose citizens suffer under a repressive regime. On their journey across the border, they drive different roads and lead them through a multitude of characters with different motivations that intertwine with the story. With road 96, digixart delivers a story-driven game that benefits from its procedural mechanics.

Axiom Verge 2 Review
Despite the linguistic tradition, I found the basic predicament of Axiom Verge 2 "s main character Indra more than enough to drive me through an eight-hour adventure in which she arrives at an Antarctic research base in search of her missing daughter - the only thing that leads her to the power-absorbing, unique ability of nanomachines known as weapons.

12 Minutes Review
Twelve minutes is a thrill that presents new and interesting revelations to players throughout the time loop, and the narrative keeps you guessing. There are times when these moments are flat as the time loop element draws players into the game by hearing the same lines over and over again, often fast forward, but overall it's strong and it's exciting to see three notable players in an indie game.
