Fallout 4

Fallout 4

This game is aging well and like most of the previous Fallout titles has merited replay.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance

Kingdom Come: Deliverance

An exceptionally thoughtfully conceived game that is let down by bugs and crashes 4/5

Into the Breach

Into the Breach

Intriguing and novel. Hasn't got any hooks in me yet though.

The Council

The Council

A couch co-op game for my wife and I.

Destiny 2

Destiny 2

Still the go-to game for social group calls.

The Red Strings Club

The Red Strings Club

Intriguing treatise on free will and dystopia. Nothing excessively memorable about the game play other than to say it is the only game I've heard of that has bartending and pottery mechanisms to advance progress. While the former at least operates as a frame for the moral and ethical questions tackled by the broader narrative, the latter is mundane. Neither works especially well. Overall this is an enjoyable and thought provoking experience.

The Long Reach

The Long Reach

Have the steam key... hoping to find time to check it out

Darkest Dungeon

Darkest Dungeon

I think I like this game... but haven't put enough time into it yet to form a solid opinion. Would like to find time to play more

Xenonauts

Xenonauts

This is an homage to XCOM that runs incredibly close to the line where you'd call it a clone. It plays pretty well and is enjoyable. It isn't as good as any of the titles in the Firaxis XCOM series. 3/5

The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky

The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky

Giving this a crack. What a great game... Hugely entertaining After 20 hours. What a delightful discovery. Maybe one of the best games I've ever played on a non-gaming laptop. After 30 hours: This game is really aimed at a different demographic (i.e. younger) to me. Still really enjoying it though... and enjoying it enough to see it through to the end. I regard this very highly for what it is. Excellent video game. Falls a shade short of essential perhaps? After 50 hours. Well the charm level just keeps on increasing. This is a really enjoyable and well written game. Highly recommended on a low-end pc or laptop. I can see the end line now. Still two thumbs up.
