First Time Playing: Assassin's Creed 1 in 2020 Feels... Good

revisiting05 June 2020

As a younger gamer, I've never had a chance of really experiencing the origins of the famous Assassins Creed series. I changed that in 2020, and it actually convinced me to the franchise more than any of the latest installments.

For Your Freedom and Ours – Liberated Review

game review01 June 2020

When it comes to dystopia, nothing beats the Eastern bloc. Liberated is an innovative project of an indie studio from Warsaw. It is ambitious and interesting – and at the same time beautifully... drawn?

The brand-new Minecraft is a hack'n'slash. Mojang's unexpected romance turned out to be quite successful, but at the same time it leaves a certain disappointment with untapped potential.

VirtuaVerse Review – Perfect Cyberpunk is Pixel Art Mixed With Synthwave

game review24 May 2020

VirtuaVerse is a monument of pixel art and synthwave. An eye-catching and ear-pleasing journey to the 80's that revives the dusty point'n'click adventure genre.

There's More to The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle than Sexy Times in Dumpsters

revisiting23 May 2020

I played The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle. I hugged bugs and garbage bags. I slept in a dumpster, I ate in it, used it as a place to cultivate the body and soul; it was a source of livelihood. It was my personal IKEA. And I could slide ladders like firemen!

Escape from Tarkov – Difficult Love, Love Nontheless

revisiting26 April 2020

Escape from Tarkov is still a technical mess after all the years. It makes you more stressed than relaxed, it keeps taking things away, it's completely unpredictable. And yet I still love this game.

The Division's Depiction of Epidemic is Way Too Real

revisiting11 April 2020

The first part of The Division did not have an impressive plot, but the collectibles contain something more interesting. The chronicle of the outbreak, which is eerily reminiscent of current developments in New York and elsewhere in the world.

When I started writing this review, I was tempted to follow Team Ninja's example and just copy whole paragraphs from the first game text, change headlines and add a few small changes. Fun fact: that review would mostly be accurate and relevant.
