The Tree Slayer, First Of His Name

​A masterful Soulslike that answers the age-old question: what if Miyazaki gave us guns instead of swords and staves. A relatively short game full of intense combat, engaging mechanics, deadly enemies and several firearms to collect.

​The ultimate trash-tier game, High On Life is nothing short of amazing when it comes to treating us like sh*t and making us love every second of it. An awesome game that is definitely not made for those sensible to verbal abuse.

An awfully mysterious game from beginning to end, In Nightmare was an amalgam of several interesting ideas that failed to reach the fullest of their potential. For most, it is advisable to steer clear from it, for, otherwise, you'd be in for a ride.

How to make the best open-world ever...

Aug 10, 2020

8.0

A thrilling 10-12 hour long game accompanied by a beautiful story that tells us the tale of Amicia and Hugo De Rune, siblings, orphans, taking comfort in each other while trying to live in a dark, cruel world.

Miraculously better than anything I could have imagined, Thymesia is a majestic soulslike that is here to challenge the rule of godlike titles. Even if on the shorter side of the scale, I still could finish the game with close to no regrets.

GreedFall Review | Retro_Vision

6.5

Neither crazy interesting, nor awful enough as to be deemed bad, GreedFall falls short of being 'great' due to how intensely its glow gets obfuscated by a few microscopic issues, as well as other large-scale problems.

A fantastic pass time that sadly doesn't strive to be much more than that. An extremely pleasurable experience that is sure to be a treat for those who enjoy a great play that just so happens to be very short-lived.

The undisputed king of metroidvanias, Hollow Knight is way more than a well-regarded piece of media. It is chaos and order walking hand to hand. A crazy experience not a single person, experienced or new, should ever miss.

An amazing choice between famous titles like Diablo 3 and Path of Exile. Created by Crate Entertainment, Grim Dawn takes place in an apocalyptic fantasy world where humanity has almost vanished.
