The servers are constantly at capacity, which I understand because the game is popular. However, the fact that there’s no offline single-player mode is ridiculous

This is the best puzzle game I played since Portal 2.

The game keeps giving you new abilities until the very end, and none of these abilities outstay its welcome. I recommend this game to anyone who likes games like Portal and The Talos Principle. The place mechanic is splendid, bending my expectations as well as reality, the story is intriguing, and the puzzles are challenging but fair.

This game runs so well on the steam deck at 30 to 40 FPS, and it also runs amazingly on my main rig at 32:9 aspect ratio, HDR and with everything turned to 11.

I have not finished the game yet, but the story as been great so far and I love all the crafting and RPG mechanics.

A roaring success. Arkane Studios expertly designed a fantastic time-loop experience.”

This is just a season update on an already excellent title, but at a reduced price so I highly recommend it, especially if you didn't get last season’s title.

We reviewed this game when it first came out, all our thoughts and full review can be found on our 75 minute podcast - Half-Life: Alyx Spoilercast [monkeytail.co.uk]

But in short, this is bar none the most immersive experience I've had in a video game. This is not just a great VR game, this is first and foremost a great game that is elevated further by the VR experience.

Fantastic 'souls' game, best one since Dark Souls.

Teslagrad hits the ground running, you take control of the unnamed protagonist, a young boy that immediately starts running away from the scary men trying to capture him! You run across the red crumbling rooftops of an unnamed town, up and down ladders and across collapsed bridges. The town itself, a steampunk inspired vision of old Europe, is in chaos, a dystopia on the verge of collapse, but you can’t stop to figure out what is happening exactly. Your oppressors, henchman clad in red are hot on your heels. So why your running away is not yet clear, but it soon becomes apparent what you’re running towards, a gloomy looking building, a tall structure in the centre of town, this building is a Tesla Tower.

Brothers: A Tale Of Two Sons is the latest game by Swedish game developer Starbreeze Studios. Like the title suggests, this is the tale of two sons that embark on a fabled journey to save their dying father. The game begins with the younger of the brothers, Naiee, paying his respects at his mother’s tombstone. With the aid of a flashback we discover that she drowned at sea while he tried to save her. His elder brother, Nyaa, calls him to help him carry their ill father to the village’s doctor. This is where you first get to try out the unconventional control scheme. You control each brother independently with the left and right analog sticks, and each brother has an action button with the corresponding trigger button. This unusual way of controlling the game is at first confusing, but your brain quickly adjusts to it and you soon get the hang of it. This sort of single player co-op helps create a sense of synergy with the two brothers.
