  2. Red Dead Redemption 22018PCReview

    Gorgeous and painfully slow. Every drawer has an opening animation. Missions tell you exactly where to stand and fail you if you don't.

    Animal Crossing: New Horizons2020SwitchReview

    Nothing to do after the first month. Terraforming one tile at a time is torture.

    Cities: Skylines2015PCReview

    Traffic management simulator. Without mods the pathfinding is broken.

    Good game. By run 60 I'd seen Tartarus enough for one lifetime, and Asphodel is still the worst biome.

    Could lose ten hours and be better for it.

  2. Genshin Impact2020PCReview

    Nice world. Everything else is designed to get your wallet out.

  3. Fortnite2020PCReview
    Gameplay 1.5★ · Story 1.5★ · Music 1.5★ · Difficulty: Normal

    Played it because my nephew wouldn't stop asking. Everyone builds a skyscraper the second you shoot at them.

    Combat's great. Far too many puzzles where the kid shouts the answer at you, and the backtracking in the middle drags.

  8. Colin McRae Rally 2.02000PCReview
  9. Dead Space 32013PCReview
  10. Dave the Diver2023PCReview

    Charming. Too many minigames interrupting the actual loop.
