An exceptional audio-visual experience, this goes beyond just a game and charts some new territory of interactive cinematic media falling somewhere between movie and video game. The overall presentation is absolutely stunning, and the story told is deeply touching and a harrowing experience for anyone who has experienced mental illness or seeks to understand it. It may not be for everyone, but for me following Senua's journey throughout this series has been one of the most memorable and impactful gaming experiences I have had.

At first I wasn't too sure about this, but it grew on me throughout the demo.
The character reworks feel a bit meh, Nameless is a bit annoying in this iteration, in an almost comical fashion. It remains to be seen how well it is pulled off in the final version... The combat is a bit janky but seems unique enough that it could be tweaked and refined to be more fluid and fun.
Considering this is an early build I think it shows some promise, although it didn't quite feel like Gothic to me and somewhat closer to Arcania in tone which isn't such a good thing.
Having said that, based off what is shown here, this is a game I could still see myself playing in the future, especially after years of improvements (hopefully).

Incredible game, never as an adult would I have thought that a game about an animated cat and his robot companion would hit me in the feels so deeply, but here we are. Truly a work of art worth experiencing, and a must for any animal lover!

Finally a reason for me to return to Starfield! I'm not one for endlessly levelling after beating all the main story/faction questlines, so I'm really enjoying this classic style story expansion, the expansion of lore and the interesting new zone it adds. Honestly it reminds me a little bit of Tribunal for Morrowind in some strange sort of way. Having a blast so far, perfect content to jump back in on a new game + character.

This is not my standard genre to play, but this game has surprised me with how engaging it is despite it's humble appearance. The setting alone is enough to distinguish this game from the crowd, with beautiful music, art and scenery all lending a nice atmosphere that pulls you in. The exploration is fun and unfolds naturally, the combat is simple but entertaining, and the progression is satisfying without being grindy. As a gamer who was not alive for this era of gaming, it evokes a feeling of some of the "later" rpgs I have played, such as Daggerfall (the cities & dungeons) or Gothic (starting with nothing, hunting monsters to get by). A little gem that is well worth the price.

An awesome game with a great setting, fun weapons and a nice visual aesthetic.
The combat is quite satisfying, nothing beats beheading an enemy with a well placed throwing axe or swing of the longsword. It manages to pull off melee combat really well, while still retaining a fast pace that befits the genre.
The campaign isn't overly long, but I really enjoyed the content that is there. There is a good variety of weapons, enemies and environments throughout the 3 chapters of the campaign, plus arena and endless modes to satisfy the bloodlust afterwards.
Each chapter also has a secret level with a secret boss which is a nice touch. I rarely look for secrets in these kind of games, but I found myself actually wanting to hunt for them in this one.

All in all I can highly recommend, great value for money at this price point, and I hope to see more of this style from this dev in the future!

Early Access Review
Solid beginnings for a game with a great setting, atmosphere and art direction. The writing is good, supported by excellent voice acting and some interesting quests. Combat plays similarly to Skyrim, but slower and with more emphasis on timing and stamina management. Playing a hybrid mage/melee fighter was quite fun but also very OP. Would be nice to have some increased difficulties and enemy density options in the future, or some sort of level scaling.
Of course being an early build of the game there are various bugs and performance issues, but that is to be expected at this stage and can only improve, so if that is an issue for you then wishlist it and come back in a year or two.
There is a lot of potential here and I can't wait to see more! The early access has a decent amount of initial content that has me invested already. I'm happy to be along for the journey as this game shapes up to be a new beacon in the absent void of modern dark RPG's.

This game is pretty much perfect.

Gameplay is solid. Tight, fast and addictive
Incredible variety of tracks, vehicles and game modes
Lengthy campaigns
High quality, low cost DLC for even more campaigns, tracks and vehicles.
A whole workshop full of high quality, free content to explore.
Clean graphics that look both modern and retro simultaneously (plus options for retro graphics and crt effects if you want a real flashback)
Absolutely banging soundtrack

Well worth every penny.

Early Access Review
Best zombie game out, best survival game out.
Screenshots simply don't do it justice. It may look like The Sims 1 from the outside, but under that deceptive exterior are detailed game mechanics that do a great job of simulating almost everything you might find yourself doing in the apocalypse, without being too overly complex. The interface is overwhelming at first and the game is brutal, but wow is it addictive! Be prepared to watch whole nights turn to mornings with your friends. One of the best multiplayer experiences I've had, and I feel like we've barely scratched the surface.
The game gives you fair warning, you WILL die, like quite a lot at first, so once you get over that and start to get some progression in the form of stockpiling weapons/resources/vehicles for future characters, and just improving at kiting/fighting in general, it gets less and less painful to watch your new favourite character get torn to shreds.
The map feels HUGE and the sense of scale on massive journeys is epic.
I simply refuse to accept this as early access. I'm late to the party, but at this stage the game is fully fleshed out with heaps of vanilla content, and that is to say nothing of the plethora of mods.
My playtime reflects a bit of solo mode and a hosted vanilla multi game with friends.

If you like zombies, if you like survival, if you like just messing around in a sandbox and making your own story, then I highly suggest you "Just do it".

I love what I see so far, I can't wait to see where this goes and have a go at writing my own quests!
