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.

Humankind Review
By the time my neolithic adventure gathered enough stars for the next era to move on, i had pushed through the fog of war, found several potential locations for my first city and knew where to find dyes and other resources for early games. The first few epochs felt synchronized with your expanding empire and for most of the game i played i was able to build my first culture, unique districts and four or five cities to advance into my next era.

Madden NFL 22 Review
Madden 22 returns to the same eclectic modes as last year for the franchise, with notable differences such as more cosmetic rewards for yards, a new half-decent story about the faces of the NFL, new linebacker options, a ubiquitous promotion ramp and better visual commentary and presentations than a year ago. The first major content update in September deepened the College Scouting system and virtual team owners and reassured NFL fans that Madden NFL 22 is a live service in this era, meaning that the start of games is not a one-time tip of the iceberg when compared to the best-played but low-functioning modes.

Aliens: Fireteam Elite Review
Demolishers can use a range of iconic weapons, from smart weapons to flamethrowers and the ability to fire micro-rockets. Most weapons that can be obtained between missions from secret crates in the arsenal use class attachments, but once you have glued them to a weapon class, you no longer have to assemble and reassemble them for different loading processes. One of my favorite quirks of Fireteam are the challenge cards you can play during missions to make them harder in exchange for more money and EP.

King's Bounty 2 Review
In King's Bounty 2, you choose one of three characters who take over the main story and all follow the same plot. The sights are a bit stronger here, as you will find most of the nooks and crannies of Kings Bounty IIs, and you won't find a shortage of containers where you can search for random items and gold, but I can't remember many outstanding areas.

Psychonauts 2 Review
Nearly 16 years have passed since the first Psychonaut game, but not much time has passed between the protagonists Razputin (Raz) and Aquato. After his exploits in the first game, Raz begins as a psychic spy on the lower rungs of Psychonaut headquarters, as he is still a child.

Saints Row Reboot
People have some strong opinions on the new Saints Row reboot and rightly so. My first introduction to Saints was Saints Row 2 and I remember waking up at 3:30 in the morning just so I could play it before work. The game was that addictive. I played that game every chance I got, and I was excited when Saints Row 3 came out. I maxed out my character easily and genuinely enjoyed that game. Then Saints Row 4 came out. I am one of the few that liked that game. I just pretended it was a fever dream the boss was having. It does not compare to Saints Row 2 and Saints Row 3.
