REVIEW | KINGDOM COME: DELIVERANCE II | BRAVER, SHARPER...

A quiet shock hits you the moment you step back into 15th-century Bohemia raw, familiar, and strangely alive in a way modern RPGs rarely manage, an energy that stands apart from anything the genre usually offers. Not the heroic swell of a fantasy epic, not the polished sheen of a power fantasy, but something rougher, more grounded, more human. Kingdom Come: Deliverance II takes that fragile identity from the first game and pushes it further, deeper, and with far...

REVIEW | THE CALLISTO PROTOCOL | ...CREEPING & CALLISTO

There’s something magnetic about stepping into a horror game that already carries a weight of public opinion before you even touch the menu. The Callisto Protocol felt like one of those cursed artifacts the internet had already stamped with failing grades, half-baked jokes, and endless comparisons long before release, as if the entire world collectively agreed that this thing should be thrown into the cold void of its own setting. Maybe that’s why I approached it the way...

REVIEW | FARTHEST FRONTIER | WHEN CHAOS BECOMES HOME

Standing at the edge of a cold, untamed forest in Farthest Frontier doesn’t feel like the start of a typical strategy game it feels like the first breath before a long, uncertain struggle. Farthest Frontier somehow captures that fragile balance, inviting players into a world where every decision carries weight and every cleared patch of land feels earned. From the first moment, there’s a sense of “okay, this is delicate, this is risky, but maybe I can carve out something real...

REVIEW | SUBNAUTICA | THE OCEAN LEFT A MARK I WON'T FORGET

I remember the first few hours vividly. Gathering titanium scraps, clipping my scanner into place, and staring into the abyss these weren’t just chores, they were small rituals that anchored me in this alien world. The ocean wasn’t just scenery; it had mood, it had temperament, and, in its own way, it demanded respect. I crafted a flashlight, a survival knife, a habitat builder, and each new tool felt like a key to unlocking secrets the planet held. And yet, each...

REVIEW | CRONOS: THE NEW DAWN | TENSION-TRAGEDY-TERRAIN

When I first launched Cronos: The New Dawn, I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect. Knowing it came from Bloober Team the same team behind the Silent Hill 2 remake my expectations were high. As the screen faded in and the first ruins of post-apocalyptic Poland appeared before me, I immediately felt the game pulling me in. And honestly, it did. This blend of retro-futuristic aesthetics, body horror, and a sense of future despair may not be perfect, but it definitely...

REVIEW | FOOTBALL MANAGER 26 | AMBITIOUS YET FLAWED

Football Manager 26 has been one of the most anticipated and divisive entries in the franchise’s long history. After skipping what would have been FM25, Sports Interactive used the extra development time to rebuild large parts of the game, switching to Unity, rethinking the UI, and introducing new tactical systems. But as soon as I loaded it, it was obvious: this is a version with real ambition, yet one that carries the scars of a rushed launch. There are big...

REVIEW | TES IV OBLIVION REMASTER | THE ICON RETURNS

When Oblivion first launched in 2006 it captivated players with its open world, ambition and the promise of freedom in the fantasy realm of Cyrodiil. Now in its 2025 remastered incarnation, the game arrives reborn on Unreal Engine 5 yet the goal is not a full remake, but a thoughtful revival. As someone returning to this world with years of gaming behind me, I approached Oblivion Remastered both with nostalgia and critical curiosity. The result is a game that often...

REVIEW | S.T.A.L.K.E.R. II: HEARTH OF CHERNOBYL | ZONE ON

When I finally launched S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, the sensation felt a lot like returning to a place that shaped you years ago but no longer exists in the same form. I remember the Zone vividly from my younger days murky, dangerous, melancholic, wrapped in silence and madness that deepens the further you push. More than ten years have passed since we last set foot in this dystopian, decaying world, and GSC Game World carried the heavy task...

REVIEW | BALDUR'S GATE III | FROM DICE TO PIXELS

In an era dominated by fast-paced action games and live-service formulas, Baldur’s Gate 3 stands out as a rare, uncompromising RPG that rewards patience, intelligence, and genuine curiosity. Larian Studios has taken the heart of tabletop Dungeons & Dragons and translated it into a living, reactive digital world where every decision carries weight. This isn’t just about rolling dice or min-maxing stats it’s about shaping a story that feels entirely your own...
