“All Will Fall does its best work when its drowned setting and precarious building systems make survival feel like a constant compromise. Every new floor, bridge, and supply line adds to a world that feels genuinely unstable, even if some of the wider management ideas do not always carry the same weight.”

“It's a good DLC, especially for its price (€9.99), but its difficulty spike might cause some players to drop their controllers. For those still hungry for a challenge, it's worth going for, even if the lack of side challenges might surprise some and the game strays even further from the original material.”

“If Breath of Fire IV had better timing for its release, it probably could have given Final Fantasy a run for its money. This was the last installment to truly capture the feel of a classic JRPG, as later games took more experimental and polarising directions. The original PlayStation era delivered some of the finest examples of the genre, and even now, it’s hard to top what was available then. The fact that Breath of Fire IV still holds up is unsurprising, but it also deserved a bit more care put into its Steam debut.”

“If you fancy revisiting Raccoon City - or being chased through it like you’ve nicked the titular villain’s wallet - this is easily one of the best ways to do it. Though its story and characters are weaker, Resident Evil 3: Nemesis delivers a fast, action-driven take on the classic survival horror formula that’s very enjoyable, with Nemesis himself providing a constant, terrifying threat. This modern PC re-release runs smoothly on current systems, preserving and slightly enhancing the original experience, making it a cool, faithful revival.”

“Resident Evil 2 on Steam is definitely worth the time for long-time fans or anyone willing to adapt to tank controls. It's still gripping and manages to be more cinematic than its remake counterpart, thanks to the stylish flair of the camera angles and enthralling music that ranges from forebodingly ominous to pulse-pounding excitement. It would have been great if the Steam version included new features or added more options, rather than relying on the modding community. However, as it is, this version still offers an excellent way to experience one of the best and most replayable horror games of all time.”

“This new PC port of Resident Evil doesn’t reinvent the wheel. It merely ensures the wheel spins properly on modern machines without flying off and hitting one in the face, which, in the world of PC ports of old classics, is a resounding victory. It’s not the best version of Resident Evil, nor is it the most impressive game in the series, but this remains a respectful and functional re-release of a genre-defining classic.”

“Overall it was not that bad, and comes across as rather educational. I would have loved to have played this while in R.E. at high school. As someone who doesn’t follow an any religion, so I could not say if the game follows the New Testament correctly. But ignoring the odd A.I. voices and some uncanny valley looking models, I Am Jesus Christ is enjoyable. Gameplay is fun and simple, and the short mini-games help break up the dialogue between quests. I wouldn’t mind seeing other sims games tell the story of other religious stories, like Muhammed, Dalai Lama, or others from the Bible itself. So I will be giving it the Thumb Culture Silver Award.”

“Fishbowl is not an easy game to pick up, and it’s not always one you want to play. The discomfort of the game is seemingly intentional, asking you to sit with Aloo’s grief as she lives through this part of her life. You can’t run, or hide, or distract yourself. As the days pass, Aloo confronts more of the memories she thought she’d forgotten, and, in doing so, she starts to heal.”

“Clean Up Earth is a project with a heart of gold, but its mechanics are fragile. The idea of ​​combining relaxation with real-life activism, transforming in-game progress into actual donations to NGOs, is laudable and gives the title exceptional educational potential. However, stripped of its noble purpose, Magic Pockets' game struggles to compete with the genre's giants. Crushed by a lackluster aesthetic and sound, and weighed down by gameplay that quickly becomes repetitive, Clean Up Earth is an adventure that risks quickly tiring solo players, finding its true meaning only when played cooperatively or as an educational tool.”

“It’s not a flawless experience, but it does what it set out to do successfully, for the most part. The characters were cute (even when they were trying to murder me), the world was full of wonder and secrets, and being able to camouflage myself in front of an entire alien factory practicing Tai Chi is something I didn’t know was missing in my life until I did it. I wish the game had been a little bit longer, only because I was having so much fun exploring the strange environment, but at about five to six hours to beat (without searching for all of the hidden collectibles), Darwin’s Paradox! is absolutely worth diving into.”

“However, the current execution is severely lacking. The decision to dial back the dynamic physics in favor of rigid, punishing, and often buggy cooking mechanics makes the game feel more like a tedious chore simulator than a fun sandbox. Combined with severe performance drops and broken UI elements, it is clear that Big Cheese Studio needed a few more months to polish this release. If you have a dedicated friend to play with, you will still likely wring some chaotic fun out of the co-op. But for solo players, it is best to wait for a few major hotfixes before stepping up to the stove.”
