“If you can find similarities between the events in the mixtape and your own past, you can be sure you'll experience unforgettable emotions. Johnny Galvatron, please continue, but make it a bit more gamified. Thanks.”

“Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes tests how well you hold up under pressure by forcing you to play a game of whack-a-mole against endless waves of Cylon attacks, political crises, and ethical dilemmas.”

Try Hard GuidesMay 11, 2026Score 60

“Bus Bound delivers some decent driving mechanics with excellent traffic AI, although the game struggles with the nuanced mechanics that make other simulator titles from Saber stand out. There is no career mode, and immersive mechanics are limited, but if you want to drive a bus along a route, you can certainly find a good, albeit short, time here.”

Nintendo LifeMay 11, 2026Score 60

“inKONBINI: One Store. Many Stories has modest ambitions but mostly achieves them: it tells a small number of unchallenging short stories, set in a 1993 Japanese retail context. Its atmosphere carries it a surprisingly long way, but not far enough to overcome how thin the experience actually is.If you're excited by narutomaki, hanko ink refills and passing business cards with both hands, then consider proceeding to the cash register. If not, you may just want to leave without buying anything.”

GameBlastMay 11, 2026Score 50

“Despite laying some solid groundwork, inKONBINI: One Store. Many Stories. occupies itself far too much with the platonic, disconcerting conception Nagai Industries has of the Japanese convenience store as some sort of social hub, while at the same time treating the backdrop of the country as mere aesthetics at best and a nuisance to Western audiences at worst. It’s conclusive proof that fascination doesn’t necessarily equal respect.”

“While much of the industry seems intent on recycling formulas and chasing after others' successes, games like Mixtape remind us of something essential: that there are still video games capable of making us feel something different. Of moving us. Of transporting us to another moment in our lives. Of making us breathe a little easier. And in times like these… that's worth as much as oxygen itself.”

“Beautiful and mysterious, Call of the Elder Gods is a must-play for any fan of puzzle games. It might not be quite as good as its predecessor in terms of story and setting, but it's still absolutely worth your time, as long as you've got your thinking cap on.”

“Housemarque evolves the foundations of Returnal into something even bigger with Saros, delivering intense third-person combat, stunning world design and a mysterious sci-fi narrative that constantly pulls you deeper into Carcosa. A breathtaking roguelite experience that feels both familiar and refreshingly ambitious.”

“It's easy to consider Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes as the most definitive game in the franchise, especially for those who want to roleplay as the fabled Admiral Adama. Some frustrations and stressful interactions are present, but that's par for the course for a roguelite game.”

Latest: Saros

Gamer Social ClubMay 11, 2026Score 90

“Saros is a triumph for Housemarque and a reminder that some of the most exciting games being made today don’t need to rely on cinematic spectacle to leave a lasting impression. It takes everything that made Returnal special and builds upon it in meaningful ways, from its improved progression systems to its breathtaking world design and its roster of unforgettable boss encounters. The story is heavy, the gameplay is addictive, and the world of Carcosa will stick with you long after the credits roll. If Returnal was Housemarque announcing themselves to the world, Saros is them planting their flag. Don’t sleep on it.”

“You won’t find a challenge in Mixtape, just a superbly directed adventure in which teenage fears, stunts and drama intertwine with dreamlike imagination and pure, unbridled fun, all carried by one of the best video game soundtracks of the year. And that’s quite enough for me; as someone who remembers rewinding a cassette tape with a pencil, I had a brilliant time.”

“If there is any positive in Traysia, it’s that the game is mercifully short, clocking in at around ten hours to complete, and for those playing on PlayStation, completing the game will also give a Platinum trophy for one’s troubles. Traysia is a relic with nothing to offer anyone, as it struggles to have an identity beyond being a piece of lost history brought back for preservation.”
