Indika Review: More State of Mind Than a Game, Just Like Russia It Depicts

game review01 May 2024

Indika is more than a game. It’s a fascinating, one-of-a-kind experience, playing with conventions and instilling disturbing thoughts in our heads. If only developers didn’t desperately try to avoid sticking a “walking sim” label to their work…

Broken Roads - Trite Post-apocalypse for the Very Patient and Understanding

game review10 April 2024

Broken Roads is an unfinished game that can be downright exhausting, entangling us in a plot without a reasonable cause-and-effect sequence and forcing us to play an errand boy. Only the most patient players can find their way in this post-apo.

Dragon's Dogma II - Epic Game that Won't Engage Everyone

game review20 March 2024

Dragon's Dogma II is a gripping RPG that gets more addictive the longer you play. At the same time, the production faces technical issues, and the experience as a whole seems more niche-oriented at times.

game review05 March 2024

Step aside, The Witcher! There is a new RPG game in town to promote Poland. The Thaumaturge may be no match for CD Projekt’s work in terms of renown and scale but it’s way bolder when it comes to having that certain “Polish” feel. Gameplay is decent too.
