PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it if you’re at all a fan of Vampire Survivors and its many clones and imitators. Bio Prototype takes the one-tiny-character-versus-hundreds-of-baddies and adds in a healthy dose of science. You play as a lab experiment gone wrong. Instead of just leveling up and unlocking a growing list of power-ups, you earn both internal and external body parts and must work out a functioning evolutionary path for your creation. This extra layer of depth adds a ton to an already addictive genre of games.

In 2020, the video game "Heaven Dust" boldly posed the inquiry, "What would happen if "Resident Evil 1" were presented with a top-down camera perspective?" The resultant offering manifested as a proficient action-adventure, notably more accessible than its muse due to the perpetual visibility of zombies. Presently, the emergence of "Heaven Dust 2" initiates a subsequent query—"What if the "Heaven Dust" narrative unfolded within a more expansive mansion?" Consequently, this sequel lacks the endearing qualities found in its forerunner. "Heaven Dust 2" unfolds in the aftermath of its predecessor, with the protagonist, Steve, awakening from the cryo pod wherein he had been confined after an abduction by corporate operatives. He discovers himself within another mansion besieged by rampant zombies. Regrettably, those anticipating a setting akin to a city immersed in a zombocalypse reminiscent of "Resident Evil 2" will likely find themselves disillusioned by the sequel's thematic choice.

It's always exciting to get early access to a cool-looking game, but sometimes it's a little too early. Such is the case with Equinox: Dawn's Edge, a sci-fi gacha that's available for download in an early beta form now. This game makes a good first impression with some flashy cinematics and fast-moving auto-combat, but what awaits beyond those early moments is...pretty rough. From unfinished and untranslated text to missing sound effects to framerate drops and crashes, it's clear that Equinox is not remotely ready to be played by a wide audience at this point. Heck, the game didn't even give me an awesome cinematic when I pulled the gacha. How is a gacha game supposed to get people hyped to spend money without that?!

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it. Snowbreak: Containment Zone is one of the most promising and fun gacha RPGs I’ve played in the past few years, already nearing the quality of Genshin Impact, Wuthering Waves, and Honkai: Star Rail. The game explores a beautiful dystopian world and twists classic fantasy themes by primarily focusing gameplay on fast-paced combat with guns. TIME PLAYED I played Snowbreak: Containment Zone

SHOULD I PLAY ENDLESS DUNGEON? Do you love action-packed roguelite experiences? And do you mind if they have a little tower defense gameplay layered on top just for variety? If your answer to those questions is yes, then Endless Dungeon certainly deserves a shot. This latest spin-off of Amplitude Studios’ long-running Endless series shouldn’t be confused with 2014’s Dungeon of the Endless, though it’s also an intriguing blend of roguelike and tower defense with a sci-fi setting. But

SHOULD I PLAY FORT SOLIS? Fort Solis is absolutely worth playing, as long as you know the type of game you’re getting into. And that is, to be clear, a one hundred percent narrative game. Virtually all of the “gameplay” in Fort Solis is made up of walking around the titular creepy abandoned base on Mars, with a small handful of very simple puzzles and quick time events. That said, if you’re down for a creepy, suspenseful story, this one will get under your skin in all the best ways.

All things considered, I had a great time with Starfield, but it’s easy to see why some people didn’t vibe with the game. It’s filled with empty planets, there are tons of bugs, and it’s way too hard to keep track of side quests. It can still be pretty fun, but it’s clearly not a game that will click with everyone. Or at least, that’s what I used to think. Since then, I’ve realized that Starfield is a massive, multilayered experience that offers much more to do than just the main mission. There are many side missions where I can learn about the people and story of Starfield. I can even visit the official Starfield Discord for tips on how to make the game fun.

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it. Exoprimal combines the fast-paced sci-fi shooting action of Titanfall 2 with the team-based gameplay of Overwatch and adds its own twist with dinosaurs and multidimensional time travel. Even with some issues—slow progression, unbalanced characters, and messy gameplay modes—this mix of great elements from other games with its own unique style provides an insanely entertaining time.

Despite being made by the same team that created the beloved Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide and Warhammer: Vermintide 2, players were very lukewarm on last year's Warhammer 40,000: Darktide. The mixed reviews on Steam pointed to tons of bugs, a lack of content, and unrewarding progression as major problems contributing to the lack of excitement. Well, developer Fatshark has been working away at Darktide for a year now, improving on those issues with patches adding new content, balancing classes and abilities, and squashing legions of bugs. That all culminates in the just-launched Patch 13, which completely overhauls how classes and leveling work in the game.

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Skip it for now, unless you’re very excited about social deduction games and the goofy sci-fi aesthetics work better for you than they do for me. Dubium has a lot of good things going for it, but the theme and visual style seemed totally at odds with the idea of scrambling to get a space station back online in order to destroy hazardous materials stored on board—while always looking over my shoulder for a fellow crew member waiting for the right moment to kill me.

I hadn't heard much about upcoming horror game Fort Solis until I saw the above trailer, but watch this thing and try not to get hyped. The game takes place on a mysteriously deserted mining base on Mars, and players take on the role of an astronaut named Jake sent to investigate what happened. The trailer leaves it unclear what the actual threat lurking within Fort Solis is, which is great in my opinion. Let me be surprised when I play the actual game! But whatever it is, I'm getting

Love this game and play every day. It’s Overwatch meets Star Wars Battlefront for mobile, simple as that. No upgrades or power levels, all free to play with only cosmetics and battle passes sold. Game is still in limited soft launch and needs a little more polishing before global release. Play it now if you can figure out how to download it, or be on the lookout for the game in 2023. It’s worth the extra hoops to get it now or at least to wait for global launch!

I don’t know what to say… :o it’s already extremely enjoyable..! It was worth the wait for it! I did not expect it to be a turn base kinda game! Character voice overs, loooooooove it, graphics…! Loooooooove it! Game play? LOOOOOOOVE it! I believe that this new game from Hoyoverze will be very successful as well as Genshin did and is still is to this day. They definitely know what they are doing when it comes to free RPHs will there also be a Garcha mechanic? Probably but regardless that you don’t necessarily HAVE to spend a single dime to enjoy the game. It was worth the wait tbh, now…I’m highly excited for it

The carefully crafted and skillfully executed storyline serves as the cornerstone of the game's appeal, weaving a narrative tapestry that engages players as they navigate through challenging levels.

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it. Deadlink is a sci-fi roguelite shooter that takes place in a futuristic world with robots, augmented humans, and greedy mega corporations. This visually stunning game perfects nearly everything a fast-paced roguelite shooter should be and adds its own spin on the genre with cyberpunk aesthetics. TIME PLAYED I played Deadlink for three hours. I defeated the first and second boss, as well as unlocked around ten permanent upgrades. I’ve attempted and failed over a dozen runs, with each one lasting anywhere between ten to twenty-plus minutes.

This was such a calm and pleasant game and I think would benefit itself greatly with a challenge mode, DLC, or anything else. I'd like to keep playing it over and again, but with 100% completion, it's sort of feels ultimately pointless but still fun? It was more than just your usual deck building experience. You develop a relationship with each character and their characteristics along the journey, making it much more difficult to say goodbye once you've completed the game.

TapTaps' new service, enables users to transmit DEMOs directly to their mobile devices from a virtual computer rather than directly installing them and taking up space, it's very intuitive but the functionality that is currently being implemented here just doesn't seem to function well because it's a PC game being streamed to Mobile.

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it if you’re a fan of sci-fi, analog horror, or just like narrative-focused games. Oxenfree II: Lost Signals is a direct sequel to the original Oxenfree, but it’s surprisingly friendly to newcomers. Set five years after the first game, Lost Signals follows two brand-new characters: small town handyman Jacob and stoic screw-up Riley. There are moments that will hit harder if you’ve played the original, but it’s not overly reliant on old material, and it should make for a satisfying experience even if you treat it as a standalone game.
