A strong second outing from Techland for this zombie open world RPG. The game has amazing traversal and is a joy to play. Narrative is a little underdeveloped and felt rushed in the later half, but this is still a must play for those who love open worlds to get lost in.

A underdeveloped and boring game with very little build up. The game tries to evoke an emotional response from the player without showing you why you should care in the first place. A walking sim without a narrative is a disappointment and this game I would not recommend.

A wonderful top down 2d rpg from drinkbox. Bursting with great gameplay and music and just a joy to play through. One of the best indie games of 2022 and another hit from the devs.

A game with a great world to explore and the first truly open world Pokemon game. Although a very buggy game, the loop and collection aspects were fun enough to play through with my daughter. I hope they iterate on this design for future games.

A beautiful and gorgeous game with a cast of well developed characters. Aloys journey is fantastic (even if not hitting the highs of Zero Dawn and a bit too familiar) and I am looking forward to the next installment in the Arc.

An eccentric narrative in a strange world brought to life with incredible pixel art backdrops. The story is centre stage here and includes top tier writing and character development. Sometimes it was slightly to ambiguous for my liking and the puzzles felt a little dry at times but overall it was well worth my time.

one of the surprise hits of the year! hearkens back to the golden age of collectathons and tugged at my nostalgia strings throughout the game. This game is also a joy to play mechanically and had me wanting to collect every thing in each level. A must play!

A beautiful story book with choice and narrative. I had a wonderful time with this game and the characters. Well worth playing through if you are a fan of narrative driven games where your choices matter.

quite possibly the most disappointing game of 2022 for me. Not because its inherently bad, but because I love what the developers did previously and this was just an okay another world clone. The games story was a little under developed and the actual game play lackluster. Some puzzles were interesting and well fleshed out.

A great short brawler action based metroidvania with fun combat. A little rough in the story department and perhaps relying on too many tropes for my liking, the actual gameplay was great. Recommend for players interested in 2d action platformers.

A frustrating experience that lacked identity and the ability to double down on the things it did well. the combat was unnecessary and the game should have stuck to the tension and atmosphere as a walking simulator. Unless a fan of the art i wouldn't recommend.

A good metroidvania with some great 2d art and atmosphere. The backtracking became tedious but the game was short enough to keep me engaged throughout. Looking forward to the studios next project.

A game that will live on as one of the greats. My favourite game of 2022 and quite possibly the new generation, every part of the game is a masterpiece of design and grandeur.

A graphical spectacle with some gore and serious tension. Although the story never got truly going to epic proportions, the foundation was there and i am excited to see where this studio and the franchise heads in future.

A wonderful quirky adventure through Japan with Ichiban. The turn based combat was great and I connected with the characters and the story. A joy to complete in 2022.
