I had low expectations, thinking this would be a pretty hollow game but Guardians of the Galaxy slowly won me over with its quippy team banter, fanfare moments, and some really just all around fun bit of everything.

PROS
-Great story
-Team banter
-fast pace arcady battle.
-Music is fantastic

CONS
-Some moments can drag on.

8.5/10

For someone that is new to the crusader kings franchise a map staring game is a huge turn off; However CK3 makes up tenfold by offering a VERY in depth board game like experience. CK3 ask a lot of the playet but if your willing to stick it out to learn the game, you'll find yiurself eith long nights with the hours gone.

PROS
-If you want to feel like a ruler, there are very few games which offer this level of depth
-Risk/civilization players will feel right at home here
-Seeing your avatar age is a nest touch

CONS
-DLCs are overpriced
-the battling and war could be better
-HUGE learning curve
-Map visuals could be way more visually appealing

9/10

Before your eyes is a short game that is more about the experience and journey than a game. Unfortunately, by the time you reach the end, every character remains too much of a blank slate for you to care, which sadly makes the story fall flat.

PROS
-Short without overstaying its welcome.
-Controls are very simply and as per its ttile, can be played with just your eyes and a camera.

CONS
-The story isn't all too interesting and could have done with more story elements to get it to the finish line.

RATING: 5/10

You would think that a game with virtually no other NPC, animals, combat and mostly walking would be boring, yet firewatch does a wonderful job keeping the suspense and engagement with nothing more than a radio and a voice on the other end to keep you comfort.

PROS
-Voice acting is top notch
-Great enivronmental set story telling and set pieces

CONS
-Would be nice to have seen some animals

RATING: 7/10

Fall Guys is a fun, hilarious, and devious party game. Simple to learn but hard to master.

PROS
-Charming, colorful and cute graphics
-Loads of costumes and customizations
-The satisfaction of being the creme of the crop
-Best enjoyed with friends with options to play with randoms

CONS
-No local multiplayer

RATING: 8/10

Life is strange 2 a slow and the encounters are characters along the journey never get deep enough for you to get invested.
Every episode is a routine of here are a bunch of new characters, get know them, now move on. By the finale I just didn't care anymore.

PROS
-Captain Spirit (play that instead)

CONS
-plot decisions which had me rolling my eyes! I'm not talking about character decisions which the player makes but rather the narrative decisions. For example; The catalyst which prompts the two brothers to go on their journey never felt strongly warranted in the first place.

RATING: 6/10

The one thing you're going to get from this game is a dino park sim. One thing you are going to wish this game has is everything every other park sim city builder has.

Jurassic park evolution seems to frustrating want to stand in its own way of being a good game.

PROS
-The dinosaurs of course
-Shooting dinos with tranquillisers from an helicopter
-Driving around in a Gyro sphere/jeep

CONS
-Small maps
-You have to accomplish all of the annoying and I mean annnoying....side tasks just to unlock features for the sandbox mode
-Lack of park stuff and customizations

RATING: 6/10

There are many things Mass Effect Andromeda gets right and wrong. As a game which takes place in the mass effect universe it fails at expanding to the original series. What Andromeda gets right are the fast pace fluid combat.

PROS
-There are some amazing set pieces and environments
-Driving the Nomad is just a lot of off road fun

CONS
-Unpolished
-Immersion breaking: You walk into a room and everyone is a mannequin, no chairs, no coffee mugs, it just doesn't feel lived in.
-The crew: I want to put them into an airlock and hit the button (except for drack)

RATING: 7/10

The best city builder out there. It's everything you would want in a city builder, management of taxes, districts, traffic and many more. This game is all about relaxation so have your favourite podcast/radio, music mix ready.

PROS
-The water physics is a step above anything you will ever see in other city builders most likely follow
-Tons of great mods
-Terraforming is so good

CONS
-No seasons
-No connection to other cities you create
-In game radio is forgettable

RATING: 9/10

Revisiting the mystery and demons of the past sounded very cool, Unfortunately it turns out, it wasn't all that interesting.

PROS
-Gorgeous graphics
-Diving into topics few games ever do

CONS
-When you scrape away the mysteries, it turns out its just regular family drama.
-Tyler being a transgender was a miss opportunity to dive deeper into the subject.
RATING: 5/10
