As a fan of foxes, I couldn't wait for the release of Spirit of the North 2. So it pains me all the more that it's one of the biggest disappointments of this year. It's a game that's just bad, and what's worse, it's becoming more and more difficult to bear with each passing hour. It's a production that's poorly optimized, unstable and full of ill-conceived or non-functioning mechanics. The first installment may not have been perfect, but it had its own identity and a clearly defined vision. The same cannot be said of the sequel.

Amanda the Adventurer 2 is simply more of the same. Unfortunately, also in those aspects that needed improvement. Disappointingly, there's a step backwards in terms of the freedom to solve puzzles, and the horror layer is even less effective than before. Nevertheless, the analog atmosphere continues to impress, the puzzles manage to engage, and the story continues to effectively mess with your head. I had a good time, although I hope that with the third installment, the developers will finally decide to take some bold steps forward, instead of staying in the same safe position in which they were stuck after the success of the first.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is the perfect launch for Sandfall Interactive. It is a phenomenal game inspired by cult jRPGs with a huge and emotional story whose characters stay in our memory for a long time. Adding to this a great combat system, a beautiful game world and very good gameplay gives us in combination a big candidate for game of the year.

The Talos Principle is one of those games that I love to return from time to time. The moment I put my hands on Reawakened, I felt like I was in seventh heaven. This is the best and most complete edition of this game. It contains not only the basic story and the Road to Gehenna add-on, but also introduces a brand new, interesting adventure with extremely challenging puzzles. However, if someone still couldn't get enough, they can always reach for community-created levels. And all this in stunning visuals that could be the envy of many high-budget games. The Talos Principle: Reawakened is a must-have for fans of the series and all lovers of puzzle games. However, it should also be of interest to those who are looking for something fresh, yet remarkably good.

Spirit of the North will not revolutionize the industry, it will not change your view of games or the world, but it manages to provide an enjoyable evening. Even if it will be accompanied by some inconveniences in places. You'll play it, you'll have quite a bit of fun, and then you'll probably quickly forget about this game.

Atomfall is quite an enjoyable game, which will not reach unknown heights, but there will be people who will have fun while playing. You won't find anything unique here, but it combines several familiar elements into a rather fresh mix. If you are a fan of British themes and can turn a blind eye to a few problems then Atomfall will be a tolerable adventure for you.

South of Midnight, despite interesting previews, has unfortunately become a slight disappointment. The game offers an interesting story, which unfortunately falls apart in the middle of the game, and then picks up again at the end of the adventure. An abysmal combat system and very good platforming elements provide us with a rather uneven experience, which unfortunately falls short of the growing competition in this area of the video game industry.

Koira is an inconspicuous game, short and full of shortcomings, but at the same time charming in its own way. Although it tries to move and build emotional depth, it often does so too artificially, thus failing to get where it should. The gameplay is sometimes schematic, and some mechanics are more annoying than engaging. Still, it's hard to deny the developers' ambition - it's clear that there's potential for something bigger hidden here.

Assassin's Creed: Shadows is a game that I can wholeheartedly recommend to anyone, even despite a few technical flaws, a couple of decisions that weren't quite right or an uneven storyline in places. To be honest, I had a great time with this title, and I'm absolutely sure that in the next few days I'll be unpacking everything I still have left. Assassin's Creed: Shadows is one of the best Assassin's Creed games in years, and undoubtedly the best representative of the RPG era ushered in by Origins. For the first time since Assassin's Creed II, I sincerely hope that the developers won't abandon the new direction so soon and that we'll see a continuation of Naoe and Yasuke's story.

Split Fiction is one of the top candidates for Game of the Year 2025, I have no doubt about that. It is a great blend of genres that surprises you with something new and innovative at every turn. Josef Fares, after the great It Takes Two, has done it again and delivered one of the best experiences of the year.

Avowed is a pretty good RPG that is limited in places by its technical state. Nevertheless, it was a very enjoyable adventure from a standpoint of gameplay and storyline alone. Obsidian definitely knows how to make games that players want to play, but they still need to work on the technical elements, because in this case it could have been polished more.

Nevertheless, it's hard to escape the impression that Sniper Elite: Resistance is one of the laziest games I've encountered in recent times. It's OK, but nothing more than that - it gives the impression of empty sequel, a production in which neither heart nor passion was put. It's a game created at low cost, just to spend something and make money on fans of the series. Yes, you can have fun with it, but at the same time it disappoints on almost every level.

Eternal Strands could have been one of the biggest surprises of the year if the gameplay had been more polished and had a bigger budget. In terms of story and characters, this is a great title that is overshadowed in places by an underdeveloped combat system, grindy elements or some ill-conceived systems. If you are a gamer who plays mainly for the story then it's definitely worth trudging through this game, but if gameplay comes first for you then you can definitely wait for a sale.

Funko Fusion is, unfortunately, a strong failure, which is a pity because the potential was definitely there, but it was by no means realized. A poor gameplay model, poor technical condition and a mediocre selection of franchises are just the biggest elements that went wrong, and unfortunately there is much more.

On Your Tail is not an entirely bad game. I don't feel that the dozen or so hours spent were completely wasted. It's a title you can play and have fun with, as long as you turn off your thinking. The title is imperfect in many ways. The technical side needs many improvements, including better optimization and camera work. The story is weak and poorly paced, and the characters are completely unmemorable. The town of Borgo Marina is a charming place where we can try some fun activities, but it's nothing that will draw you to the screen for a long time.

Alien: Rogue Incursion had a huge potential, where it could have delivered one of the best horror experiences in virtual reality, but unfortunately it totally botched it. Instead of focusing on one aspect, Survios tried to split the game into two genres, additionally ending with an unpleasant cliffhanger. It could have been so great, and in the end it came out barely okay.

All in all, Marvel Rivals is a massive success. Already at this stage the game is very enjoyable to play and after each completed match you want to click again to search for the next one. The full transparency of the developers and the presentation of plans for the future definitely fuels players with optimism, and may it stay that way forever.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is definitely a successful adventure of the iconic archaeologist. Very good and varied gameplay combined with a cinematic storyline and strong characters gives us another hit from Machine Games. If you're a big fan of Indiana then head out into this world ASAP!

ANTONBLAST jumped out of the blue two years after its kickstarter campaign and definitely showed what it was capable of. It is a great platformer game in the style of the Wario Land series, which presents this gameplay model in its own style, while not being afraid to take risky directions. Without a doubt, this is one of the best platformer games of this year.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl would have been one of the candidates for game of the year, but unfortunately, a terrible technical state spoiled the overall feeling of the gameplay. The game's great world and gameplay, coupled with strong atmosphere, music and acting is offset by bugs, errors and optimization problems.
