Every sortie is a satisfying combat puzzle to solve thanks to fantastic mission design, intense boss encounters, an extremely wide assortment of weapons and parts that can dramatically affect how your mech plays, and excellent, explosive combat that manages to take very complex systems and mechanics and make them easy to understand and execute.

It's not an unmissable experience, but as an Amnesia fan, it definitely sated my appetite for some gut-churning horror and moody, bleak storytelling.

And Frictional's bag of tricks is far from exhausted when it comes to getting our hearts pounding and making us carefully consider how to use the limited tools available to us. But Amnesia: The Bunker proves that smaller, anthology-style episodes within its universe can still bring the tension and the scares. The larger story it was building has already been played out with Rebirth. – Leana Haferĭeveloper: Triumph Studios | Platforms: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC | IGN’s Age of Wonders 4 Video Review Amnesia: The Bunkerįrom our review: I can't say Amnesia is still a groundbreaking horror franchise like it was at the beginning. Cranking all the dials up to maximum weirdness can lead to some edge cases that ruined my fun a bit, but it's not that big of a price to pay for the vast map and empire customization we get to play with.

And the faster pace of its very strong campaign mechanics and pretty good tactical battles make it feel like I can write a new chapter of this saga in a reasonable amount of time and still have time to do something else on my day off – especially with the very well-done story realms. – Jada Griffinĭeveloper: WayForward | Platform: Switch | IGN’s Advance Wars 1 + 2 Video Review Age of Wonders 4įrom our review: As much as I enjoy building a legacy in a 4X game before starting over to do it all again, the fact that my legacy follows me in Age of Wonders 4 feels much more rewarding. However, the sheer number of maps, playable COs, and options for each match means that when I do, it's sure to be a unique experience. Playing against the AI will keep me interested in the short term, but I predict the inability to play against random opponents online will limit my spontaneous play sessions. The biggest miss is the lack of multiplayer matchmaking, which makes it harder to get into a game than it ought to be in 2023, but at least you can play online. While there isn’t much variety in the game modes, Advance Wars’ depth comes from the number of variables you can adjust to make every match feel unique. Advance Wars 1 + 2: Re-Boot Campįrom our review: With nicely redone graphics and excellent music bringing the classic turn-based tactical action up to modern standards, Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp is a great return for this long-neglected series and gives me hope for a follow-up that includes the DS games. If we have major complaints, there are more than enough excellent qualities to cancel them out. These games leave us with something outstanding to remember them by, usually novel gameplay ideas for single-player or multiplayer, clever characters and writing, noteworthy graphics and sound, or some combination thereof.
