“RIDE 6 is a love letter for motorcycle enthusiasts, balancing deep simulation with accessibility in a way that appeals to both veterans and newcomers. With over 340 bikes, diverse tracks, realistic physics and extensive customisation, it delivers a sense of identity and ownership rarely seen in racing games.”

“Overall, Humanitz takes an existing, well-established genre and sets a new benchmark. If you are a fan of titles such as “Rust” and “7 Days to Die,” to name a few, this game is for you. Don’t let the isometric view put you off; you will soon get used to it.”

“The Run was such a unique ride for me. I will admit it was nice to sit back and see what unfolded with a few clicks here and there. You really do need to have a box of popcorn to flick it at your screen, though, to get you through some of the more cliché or predictable moments.”

“The original Fighting Force is the far superior game of the two games, but having both included is a great way for fans to relive a hidden gem and a bad game if they wish, and for newcomers to experience two lesser-known titles from back in the day. Fighting Force Collection may not be the most feature-rich compilation, but it brings back a long-forgotten franchise to modern consoles and some fond memories for longtime fans.”

“While in some instances going back to the classics in almost their original condition doesn’t feel terrible, in this case, it could feel much better.”

“If you are after a simulation game that offers good building, decorating, breeding, hands-on customer interactions, and putting stock away, this game is for you. It really is a cozy simulator; the huge selection of items and animals to unlock keeps you coming back for more and gives the game longevity.”

“I Hate This Place, as a game, is a great adaptation of the popular comics series. Fans of the comics will appreciate the story, but it’s also welcoming to newcomers. It may be rough around the edges, but it will keep players on their toes, test their patience, and force them to be resourceful. I Hate This Place shows great potential and is a true standout in the horror genre.”

“I can certainly see why Vampires, Bloodlord Rising has over 200,000 wishlists on Steam. If you are looking for an infinite sandbox game that has massive potential, yet is already a stable and visually appealing game to play, add this one to your shopping list; you won’t be disappointed!”

“LANESPLIT delivers a focused, adrenaline-fuelled arcade experience that thrives on speed, risk, and flow. While its presentation, soundtrack, and score-chasing gameplay loop do a great job of selling the thrill of land splitting at extreme speeds, technical hiccups and a lack of depth in bike detail and audio balance hold it back from reaching its full potential.”

“Disco Simulator delivers a fun and approachable take on nightclub management, offering satisfying progression, meaningful upgrade paths, and a clear sense of growth as your club evolves. While its tycoon foundations are solid and the cartoon visuals suit the theme well, shortcomings in audio variety and console optimisation hold it back from reaching its full potential. Overall, it’s an enjoyable experience for fans of management sims, especially on PC, but it does show some rough edges that stop it from truly standing out in the genre.”

“Animal Crossing: New Horizons – Nintendo Switch 2 edition is worth it for the graphical and performance changes if you own a Nintendo Switch 2, and is an essential addition to the Switch catalogue of cosy games.”

“At a grim checkpoint on the brink of collapse, survivors arrive one by one, desperate to pass through, and it’s your job to decide who enters, who waits, and who is denied access.”

“Grave Stakes is built on a genuinely compelling concept, blending social pressure, dark humour and high-stakes multiplayer into an experience that can be tense, chaotic and occasionally brilliant. Its game-show premise, risk-versus-reward system, and unpredictable player-driven moments create excitement.”

“Dreadway is a sleep agent. It really was such a fun time with a full squad of four, with events set up to make you giggle and run in fear for the safety of the train.”

“With a drunken Batman and a dirty Gotham City vibe, Hank: Drowning On Dry Land is such an enjoyable little game. I would liken it more to an episodic game due to its short run time, which probably ties in with the other two titles I discovered. After this experience, though, I really find myself wanting to dive into what else My Next Games has done with our titular character, Hank.”

“Ancient Farm offers a solid foundation for a hands-on farming simulation set in ancient Egypt, with satisfying progression loops, a variety of crops and livestock, and a charmingly styled setting. Its focus on manual farming, crafting tools, and building your settlement from scratch gives you a strong sense of accomplishment as you watch your farm slowly come to life.”

“"Taxi Chaos 2 is a great deal of fun to play and is certainly worth giving a go. It delivers a strong message that AI can simply not replace human jobs and does a fantastic job with its over-the-top viewpoint."”

“The scare factor is definitely there, as players will be on edge trying to gather the ingredients and bake pies to escape a creepy restaurant, all while a monster is on the hunt for them. Cakey’s Twisted Bakery could use more time in the oven, but its simple mechanics, unique themes and creative ideas make it a nice bite-sized piece.”

“In the end, Farming Simulator: Signature Edition proves that the slow, deliberate rhythm of farm life translates exceptionally well to the Nintendo Switch 2. It does not reinvent the plough, but it does not need to. Instead, it delivers a confident, well-rounded farming experience that respects the series’ roots while embracing the flexibility of portable play.”

““Montezuma’s Revenge – The 40th Anniversary Edition” is a game that brings the difficulty of 80s gaming into the now. If you played the original or are looking for an old-school challenge, “Montezuma’s Revenge – The 40th Anniversary Edition” is a game that may give you the shits, but it’ll be up to you to decide if the journey is worth it.”
