Subnautica
Subnautica rises not only above the stereotypes of survival games, but above all other expectations.
DOOM Eternal: The Ancient Gods – Part Two
Part Two is surprisingly anticlimactic, but the new gameplay additions keep the gory splendour fresh for another 6 hours.
DOOM Eternal: The Ancient Gods – Part One
It’s a testament to how exhilarating the rapid-fire brutality of DOOM Eternal was that even when it’s repeatedly kicking your face in, it’s still an absolute blast.
Frog Fractions 2
Conceptually, I’d actually consider Frog Fractions 2 better than the original. In practice, though, maintaining the parody is often given priority over entertaining the player.
Glittermitten Grove
Glittermitten Grove has a reputation as an inconsequential joke game, so I’m shocked to have found it a genuinely enjoyable experience.
Resident Evil 2: The Ghost Survivors
The Ghost Survivors is more of an expansion to the bonus “4th Survivor” mode, which sounds like the opposite of a good time.
Sid Meier’s Civilization II
Civilization II is more immaculately designed and addictive than ever, but playing it with full audiovisual functionality may be downright impossible.
Dishonored: Dunwall City Trials
Dunwall City Trials is my favourite of the three Dishonored DLCs.
Dishonored: The Brigmore Witches
This second component of a two-part DLC campaign is of roughly equal quality to the first one.
Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando
This installment is still worth playing. It just has a duller impact than the first title.
