“When it's flowing, Sword of the Sea is unlike anything else this year. Part skate park, part dreamscape, part living painting.”

“So, has my anticipation been met? Yes, yes, it has. Although the lengthy grind and tiresome comedy didn’t appeal to me, as a whole, Stick it to the Stickman is great. With its fast-paced action, poppy graphics, thoughtful audio, and massive replayability, Stick it to the Stickman is another hit for developer Free Lives and publisher Devolver Digital.”

“Whispers from the Star is a project that resists easy categorisation. It is neither a straightforward narrative adventure nor a conventional survival game, and certainly more than a mere technological experiment. Instead, it takes shape as a hybrid interactive experience that seeks to redefine the relationship between player and digital character, shifting the emphasis away from action and toward emotional connection. That is where its greatest strength lies. Despite a few unavoidable technical shortcomings – most notably in voice recognition and in the handling of certain interactions – Whispers from the Star nevertheless delivers a distinct sense of novelty. Not through the depth of its mechanics, but through the way it builds emotional investment, presence, and a feeling of relational responsibility. Beyond its technological experimentation, gameplay mechanics, and ambitious scope, Whispers from the Star achieves something increasingly rare in contemporary game design: it places the player in a position of emotional responsibility for another life. And it is this feeling – simple in form yet deeply human in substance – that stands as its most significant achievement.”

“The ‘Bendy’ franchise has always thrived on its mixture of vintage cartoon aesthetics and psychological horror, and ‘Bendy: Lone Wolf’ takes that formula into darker, more personal territory. Where previous entries leaned heavily on exploration and puzzle-solving, Lone Wolf emphasises survival mechanics, isolation, and the slow unravelling of one character’s psyche.”

“The Dark Queen of Mortholme is a game unlike any other I've played. It has a great story and a loop system that kept me coming back until I got to the end.”

“OFF is one of the most out-there titles I've played. It's a creative game that's sure to leave an impression. The turn-based battles are satisfying, the puzzles are some of the toughest and most creative I've seen in recent years, and the visual style stands out. If you're a fan of quirky titles, this one is worth checking out.”

“Voxelgram 2 is a great nonogram-like game with a lot of content and a big challenge. I liked everything about it, from the informative tutorial to the simple but charming graphics. My only issue with it was the dizziness, which is probably mostly a me problem. If you like puzzle games, especially nonograms, you will probably love this one too!”

“Inkshade is not a grand canvas that breaks the mold, but it is a rather interesting chamber work that will definitely appeal to connoisseurs of atmospheric stories and moderately complex tactical challenges.”

“Midnight Murder Club is an original, fun party game with a compelling concept and price, marred by duds of gamemodes and quality of life issues that take away from the experience, but do not ruin it.”

“Dice Gambit is a turn-based tactical roguelike that combines hexagonal grid combat with family management. Each member of the family belongs to a different class and can evolve with active and passive skills, but Stamina decreases with each mission, forcing constant replacement. Death is permanent, and the loss of a relative can compromise the expansion of the lineage, forcing you to balance rest and deployments. The combat is good, with various combos to perform with dice, but the graphic representation of heroes and enemies in battle is rather anonymous.”

“Robert on Earth provides a great cozy farming sim experience but it does need time to establish itself and you must progress the story to access all that the game has to offer.”

“Monster Mop Up allows you to catch Ragamuffins and clean the crap out of everything, but that's about it. If you want to turn your brain off for a while and clean, then it's a good way to go, but otherwise, there's not a lot of variation.”

“Lost Twins 2 isn’t for thrill-seekers or fans of intense action. It’s a gentle, contemplative puzzle game with a heartfelt story and thoughtful design. As you play, it quietly stirs emotions and leaves a lasting impression. Simple yet powerful, imperfect but sincere—a small gem to experience with an open heart.”

“In the end, Iwakura Aria succeeds most in what is easiest to praise: its visual beauty, atmospheric sound design, and incredibly strong vocal performances. These elements are undeniably evocative, and for some players, they may be enough to carry the experience. Yet the deeper flaws, predictable narrative beats, weak side characters, shallow branching structures, and a flawed localization, prevent the game from reaching its potential. Its historical setting and sapphic framing give it cultural resonance, but this resonance sometimes feels like borrowed gravitas rather than fully realized commentary.”

“Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War Definitive Edition is a remaster that feels relatively unnecessary, as mod creators accomplished years ago what the developers have only just delivered. Even if the lack of a proper, full-fledged remake is disappointing, one needs to remember that it would likely have raised the game’s price considerably. That said, it’s hard to argue with the amount of content you get here for just 90 PLN.”

“While the actual players look good, there’s a lot of visual issues. The music choices are eclectic, but primarily not up my alley and I have no control over that. There’s a very predatory approach to microtransactions and being able to be even a little competitive in ultimate team. Overall, with the $70 price tag and the amount of extra money that seems expected of you to spend to be able to really enjoy the game against other players, it would be cheaper for you to get a season ticket and just go to the games yourself.”
