That NPC with a funny mustache, that note on a corpse, or that bit of paper nailed to a tree might provide a lead. Follow that lead, and you’ll soon find yourself on a quest, although ‘quest’ may not feel like the right word. Sometimes, the greatest compliment you can give a game is that it doesn’t feel like a game, and this is often true of Atomfall.

These platforms not only showcase exceptional game coverage but also foster a sense of community. They empower gamers to make informed decisions and discover new titles that align with their preferences. They’re essential for anyone looking to make smart choices in gaming. But there are also smaller sites like Rock, Paper, Shotgun and Polygon. Uragun is a fun, easy to pickup and play mech shooter by KoolPlay that is available now on Steam. I have two main games that I rotate during the year that my students REALLY love.

Game Reviews

Our experienced team dedicates many hours to every review, to really get to the heart of what matters most to you. On the list of great PC games, Pacific Drive is both fairly new and quite weird, which is funny since it’s also firmly planted in the New Weird genre alongside stuff like Welcome To Night Vale, The SCP Foundation, and Remedy’s Control.

To get a second review, a game must have both changed substantially enough that the original review is no longer accurate, and it must still be popular enough that many gamers are actively searching for reviews of that game. These conditions are seldom met, so do not expect to see IGN revisit a score often. We just saved you from making a terrible mistake by buying this collection of poorly executed, bad, or unoriginal ideas – or even playing it for free.

Every Character In Marvel Strike Force’s Massive, Ever-growing Roster

Hades 2 builds on everything that Supergiant established in the first game, offering an experience that is both familiar and new at once. You play as Melinoe, sister of former protagonist Zagreus, as you attempt to destroy Chronos, the Titan of time. New weapons and abilities, combined with a new resource management system, make it a joy to experiment with new combinations as you attempt your runs over and over. The experience feels very close to complete already, but if you’d prefer, the original Hades is still available, usually inexpensive, and just as good as ever. The Case of the Golden Idol is a throwback to classic point-and-click adventure games and an exacting puzzle game. You investigate scenes and then piece together what happened in a linear story narrative by placing names and verbs in their proper places.

Mare Review

This follow-up from Arrowhead Game Studios was a surprising success, not least because it was so different from the original game that inspired it. Helldivers 2 takes the hordes of enemies from the top-down first game and makes it a third-person shooter, and the new perspective works beautifully. Squadding up with your friends leads to tense survival moments and hilarious mishaps in equal measure as you fulfill objectives and call down Stratagems on your foes. And like the first game, there’s a galaxy-sprawling meta-game at play, as you and every other Helldiver fights to free territory controlled by vicious bugs and robots. This was also a rare Sony Interactive game published simultaneously on PC alongside its PS5 release, with optional cross-play, which likely helped it find and sustain an active player base. It’s a dangerous journey filled with devious monsters and trauma.

The goal is to strategically build your city while completing these Construction cards to gain additional points and advantages. Ted has been thinking about PC games and bothering anyone who would listen with his thoughts on them ever since he booted up his sister’s copy of Neverwinter Nights on the family computer. He is obsessed with all things CRPG and CRPG-adjacent, but has also covered esports, modding, and rare game collecting.

Players can also earn extra on pizza deliveries, and Community series jobs as well. Today’s list is of ten “most innovative” games of the trick-taking genre. In a genre where one little twist can make an entirely new game, I wanted to highlight games that have broken the model and started a trend. The art is whimsical, with your bulbous, quirky astronauts stumbling around engine bays and reactor decks that look like the doodles I used to do in the margins of my notes in school. For one, it keeps the mood pretty light, which is important in a game where you’re going to be lying to, and being lied to, by your friends every single round.
