The story is pretty engaging, and the puzzles are good, offering a great balance of challenge and atmosphere. It feels like a return to form for the series, with a gripping narrative that adds depth to Lara's character.

Tomb Raider III expands the series with more complex levels and new challenges, pushing players to explore exotic locations around the globe. The addition of non-linear level progression gives the game a fresh twist, but its difficulty can be punishing.

With improved graphics and larger environments, Tomb Raider II took everything that made the first game great and made it even better. Lara Croft's adventures are more action-packed, with more vehicles, weapons, and tougher enemies.

A nostalgic trip through Lara Croft’s past adventures, weaving together untold stories with familiar gameplay. Though it doesn’t reinvent the formula, it’s a solid entry that gives fans more of what they love—clever puzzles, action, and exploration. It's a fitting, if bittersweet, continuation of Lara’s legacy after the events of The Last Revelation.

A true classic that brought us the legendary Lara Croft and redefined adventure gaming. The mix of exploration, puzzles, and action in stunning environments still feels exciting today. Though the controls can be tricky by modern standards, the sense of discovery and challenge makes it a nostalgic gem that’s hard to forget.

Play as Barney Calhoun, a Black Mesa security guard, offering a more personal perspective on the disaster. While it doesn't introduce new weapons or enemies like Opposing Force, it delivers classic Half-Life gameplay with a focus on survival and exploration. The game excels in its grounded narrative, portraying Barney as an ordinary worker just trying to escape, which contrasts nicely with the military and scientific viewpoints of other Half-Life entries. Though the level design is solid and offers a closer look at Black Mesa's inner workings, the gameplay lacks variety.

A fresh take on the Black Mesa incident from the military's viewpoint. It adds new weapons, enemies, and mechanics like the barnacle grappling hook, enhancing combat and exploration while retaining the core Half-Life formula. The level design is solid, with creative puzzles and engaging firefights. Though it doesn't advance the main story significantly, it enriches the Half-Life universe with a new angle and memorable moments.

It's a gripping horror experience that excels in cooperative survival gameplay. Set in a chilling Cold War-era experiment, it immerses you and up to three friends in a terrifying environment where teamwork is crucial.

The game’s eerie atmosphere and intense psychological horror keep players on edge, while solving puzzles, evading monstrous threats, and managing resources add strategic depth. The prime assets, including characters like Coyle, Mother Gooseberry, and Barbi, bring extra flair and fun to the experience.

Abiotic Factor is a top-tier survival crafting game with a nostalgic 90s sci-fi twist. Set in a sprawling underground research facility reminiscent of Black Mesa, it challenges up to 6 players to survive after a catastrophic containment breach. Using your crafting skills and specialized PhDs, you must outwit paranormal entities, rogue security systems, and invading forces while scavenging resources to build bases and gear.

Despite being in early access, Abiotic Factor already offers a ton of content, from crafting laser cannons to exploring interdimensional realms, along with a great story. The variety of threats and creative solutions make every session exciting and unpredictable. It's a game I can’t stop coming back to!

Never Forgotten is a heartfelt indie game that combines puzzle-solving with emotional storytelling. Set in a minimalist world, it explores themes of loss and healing through symbolic puzzles tied to the protagonist's journey. With its evocative art style, moving soundtrack, and a fair price, the game offers a truly good and memorable experience despite its short length.
