Good Job Klonk Games the game deserves 9 out of 10 for the creativity alone.

Desperados III is a Wild West tactical masterpiece with engaging puzzles and diverse characters. The level design is top-notch, and it offers strategic depth and immersive environments.
The atmosphere, the visuals and the soundtrack by Filippo Beck Peccoz made me feel like i was in an old Clint Eastwood movie. It's a shame such a talented studio like Mimimi Games is shutting down.
I totally recommend this masterpiece to tactical stealth gaming fans. 11/10

Micro-transactions? Really?

Hogwarts Legacy is a fantastic addition to the world of Harry Potter. The game truly captures the magic and excitement of attending the prestigious Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The attention to detail in recreating the iconic school is astonishing, and players will feel like they are really part of the world. The combat system is engaging, and the progression system is deep, allowing players to tailor their character to their own playstyle. Although there may be some open-world padding, it is outweighed by the overall enjoyable experience. If you're a fan of Harry Potter universe, Hogwarts Legacy is a must-play.

Despite the stumbles, the devs tried their best to deliver what was initially promised (almost) in the end
PS: I'm still waiting for that free DLC.

I wouldn't call it a dungeon keeper per se, it combines some dungeon keeper elements with the RTS elements in order to get a fun, sarcastic game that packs all the pop-culture references you might think of, while being accompanied with a hilarious 4th wall breaking narrator.

10/10 would totally recommend.

Yet another flawless graphic adventure from DONTNOD, although just a demo, this game made me hop on the feels train once again.
