Interesting, philosophically centred puzzle game with a relatively unique setting and some beautiful vistas. Puzzles can get very challenging - pleasantly so.

Rockstar have absolutely mastered this format of game, and GTA5 is the jewel in their crown. It’s extremely well designed and the singleplayer is good, albeit suffering from restrictive ways to play.

A modern and engaging story driven puzzler adventure with a core mechanic thoroughly explored. Fun, engaging and emotionally sophisticated (for the most part… at times it’s pretty cheesy). Play it.

Tactical RPG storyboard with fantastic characters, artstyle and music. Quite challenging at times, which fits with its dramatic, larger than life tone. Doesn’t outstay it’s welcome. Really good.

More of the same from the Far Cry formula; which is still strong and fun - assuming there’s an engaging world & plot, as there is here. Not quite as strong as #3, but worth playing.

A simple but mostly well executed puzzle game with an interesting story, a good level of variety and great soundtrack.
