“Satisfactory on PlayStation 5 is a successful adaptation of a complex PC game for consoles. The controller-based controls remain the biggest compromise and require patience and a period of adjustment. However, once players find their rhythm, they are rewarded with the same strong gameplay flow known from the PC version. Graphics and performance are of a high standard; the game runs smoothly and looks excellent. Even without mod support, Satisfactory offers plenty of depth, motivation, and long-term enjoyment. For players without a powerful PC, the PS5 version is a very good alternative and a clear recommendation for anyone who enjoys automation, planning, and optimization. Satisfactory proves that complex building and management games can work on consoles, even if small compromises are necessary.”

“Pioneers of Pagonia is a legitimate successor to The Settlers. Rediscovering classic settlement gameplay with modern helpers was great fun — building roads, gathering resources, and watching settlers bustle is still enjoyable in 2025. Only a few hardware issues and the awkward military system slightly dent our overall impression.”

“This rouge-lite card builder combines pipe mania, slay the spire and a game show to an amusing mixture that doesn't quite reach the quality of the genre giants Slay the Spire and Balantro. Still, Fans of the genre should at the very least take a look at the demo.”

“FragPunk comes with a card system, a stylish look and aims to clean up the F2P sector straight away. For the most part, this works really well, as the matches remain fresh and there is never a dull moment. However, you have to be able to put up with the many microtransactions.”

“Striking Distance Studios created a "sci-fi Hades" with [Redacted] that offers fast-paced, entertaining gameplay. For a solid price under 25€, this offer is a great game for Roguelike and Twinstick Shooter fans alike.”

“Iron Meat is like a fresh breeze of Contra nostalgia. It has pixel-nostalgia, comes with a great guitar-heavy soundtrack and has some really nice meaty designs. Unfortunately, at one to two hours, it's a very short game, but, especially in co-op, it invites you to play a short round again and again.”

“ABRISS: build to destroy is an enormously beautiful looking puzzler full of destruction and particle effects. The large arsenal of building options leaves little to be desired when it comes to demolishing the levels and the campaign constantly adds new features. Unfortunately, the controls on the console are far too inaccurate and are also still annoying in the final levels, even if every error can be corrected immediately.”

“The Inquisitor is actually often like a car crash that you simply can't look away from. But as you look further, there is always a real sense of wonder at the twists and turns in the story, a fresh setting and fun ideas. The battles are as bumpy as Mordimer is grumpy and the Unworld is full of frustration and yet you still want to keep going. If you are not opposed to the bizarre, you should definitely give the title a chance. Otherwise, let the vengeful Jesus come for you!”

“All together in combination with the direct controls you get a lot of fun with a "one more run" spiral, what you would expect from a roguelike. Sadly the confusing story and less integration from the excellent Blazblue Cast brings the whole game down a bit. It is not the next Hades or Dead Cells but fans of the genre will still have a lot of fun with it.”

“Agatha Christie - Murder on the Orient Express is entertaining detective fun that catapults Agatha Christie's best-known story into the modern age. The investigation brings a few new approaches that also make it interesting for fans and the puzzles are always quite challenging. The game's drawbacks are the bumpy animations, the repetitive gameplay and the occasionally unpleasant voice acting”

“Roboquest is a fun roguelite FPS that motivates to pick it up for "just one more round". Tight controls, intense gameplay, secrets and lots of different guns, perks and six classes more than make up for the a little bit lacking enemy and level design.”

“his Bed We Made is a unique mystery game with a good story and a great setting that impresses with its atmosphere. If you like the premise and the penchant for crime thrillers, it is definitely worth your money despite a few minor flaws.”

“While Monochrome Mobius: Rights and Wrongs Forgotten has quite an extensive and interesting story with likable characters, the general pacing and longevity of the battles get in the way, as the game is simply far too long for that. However, Utawarerumono fans and JRPG lovers will still get their money's worth.”

“The Settlers - New Allies tried to make a city building and RTS hybrid. Sadly it doesn't deliver on both ends. The clunky RTS Parts and the low complexity of the building parts don't fulfill the high expectations of the big name "The Settlers". The great graphical presentation with fitting sound design are not enough to outshine the very slow gameplay and the monotonous campaign/story. Only sometimes old virtues shine through which is sadly not enough to satisfy fans that longed for a new "real" Settlers game.”

“Black Sea Games had the self-proclaimed goal of making an accessible grand strategy game. And they did succeed. Knights of Honor II - Sovereign does many things right by leaving out complexity that makes games from e.g. Paradox Games very hard to start. Besides this obvious strength the game stays very close to its 2004 predecessor and doesn't change much. This isn't a bad thing but a bit more bravery wouldn't have hurt. Juggling diplomacy, economics, military and the clergy makes for an immersive and fun experience. Besides the real-time battles that leave much desired Knights of Honor II doesn't make any big mistakes and is a very solid bridge between Medieval: Total War and Games like Europa Universalis or Crusader Kings.”

“Yu-Gi-Oh! Rush Duel: Dawn of the Battle Royale !! is an example that new is not always better. The Rush Duel mechanic is at most a nice gimmick that fails to carry an entire video game. The main reason for this is the small number of cards and the mandatory use of ready-made decks. The unconsumed characters and the accessible game world do not provide any consolation.”

“Just Dance 2020 has the same problems as the annual representatives of other sports: hardly any innovations! But maybe you do not need that in a dance game. So if you can live well with forty new songs and for whom Just Dance Unlimited is not too expensive, you can access it without hesitation. The rest should at least form their own opinion as to whether this justifies a full price.”

“Another Sight offers an interesting view on the world of a blind person and manages to achieve that with a great ensemble playing between kit and her cat Hodge. The game suffers a bit from technical limitations, simple riddles and a bad story-pacing, which reduces the whole picture a bit.”

“TerraTech is a quite entertaining Sandbox title, which makes fun due to its innotative idea and all the possibilities, but has to fight with some drawbacks like clumsy controls, a not-well fitted Layout and a very monotonous soundtrack, which are holding back the game from showing its potential. Nevertheless, fans of games with bricks and no gaming PC should take a look at TerraTech.”

“Fitness Boxing delivers everything that is has to for a fitness game but nothing more. The precise tracking with the joy con controllers is the only silver lining because of the weak presentation and small amount of content and variety to keep you going. If you want a daily warm up in front of your console you can still get this but don't except a lot more than that.”
