Pit People
The material for a deep, strategic experience is all here, but it’s hard to appreciate much of it.
Lethal League Blaze
Lethal League Blaze is one of those sequels that renders the original largely obsolete.
Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage! Reignited
Of the three Insomniac Spyro games, Ripto’s Rage needed a remake the least but benefits from it the most.
Spyro the Dragon Reignited
As a pleasant diversion, Spyro is undeniably effective.
Sundered: Eldritch Edition
I’m not convinced there’s a workable intersection of action and cosmic horror, despite how hard Sundered argues otherwise.
Minit
It’s mostly nonsense, but it’s extremely entertaining nonsense.
Return of the Obra Dinn
Return of the Obra Dinn is easily one of the most original and engaging games of 2018.
GRIS
GRIS is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful games ever released, but it doesn’t have much going for it otherwise.
Guacamelee! 2
Everything about the original Guacamelee! has been maintained here, including its quality.
