Colorful graphics, couple of hundred of riddles, narration through environment, and, at times, extremely high level of difficulty is the Braid's author's recipe for the perfect logic game. But such a meal my not be digestible for every player.

Hard West is not afraid to take up the glove dropped by XCOM and shows that a digital narrative can be something else than an endless festival of action and explosions. Still, this doesn’t mean it’s perfect.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Hearts of Stone Review – Almost perfect expansion

game review13 October 2015

The first expansion pack for the Witcher 3, titled Hearts of Stone, features a new adventure of Geralt of Rivia, but it also proves a certain point: a DLC doesn’t have to be sluggish and dull as the competition would have us believe.

Skyhill review – does another roguelike survival amuse or bore?

Skyhill review – does another roguelike survival amuse or bore?

game review09 October 2015

Skyhill’s biggest flaw is its lack of merits. It’s, technically speaking, a decently designed survival game, but neither its RPG elements nor the story nor the atmosphere are entertaining enough to keep the players engaged.

Act of Aggression Review – Act of War did it better

game review08 September 2015

On one hand, Act of Aggression is a rather successful attempt at resurrecting traditional RTS games and continuing the legacy of C&C. On the other, it tries to become the spiritual successor to Act of War, but unfortunately, this is where it falls short.
