Assassin’s Creed is a great game that is hampered by a few small flaws that drag it down from greatness. Don’t let this stop you from experiencing a truly epic and unique storyline that will have you gripped right until the end.
Gameplay: A little rough around the edges at times, but with plenty of cool ideas.
Graphics: Some epic scenes.
Sound: Quite immersive

The Crow’s Eye might not be a jump-scare-laden horror title like it first appears to be, but instead, it offers a compelling and interesting puzzle experience. The story is more involved than it seems, and if you stick with it, you’ll also find that there is more to the university than you might think. There is no doubt that the puzzles sometimes feel a little out of place for the setting and time period of the game, but solving them is a very rewarding experience. Ultimately, this game won’t give horror fans the frights they crave, but if you enjoy a good story and love solving puzzles, then you’ve come to the right place.
Gameplay: The Crow’s Eye is light on the scares but heavy on puzzle-solving and platforming.
Graphics: There’s nothing cutting-edge about the visuals, but they set the mood nicely.
Sound: The game features decent voice acting and a great soundtrack

If you have fond memories of the Blade Runner adventure game released for PC by Westwood back in 1997 then you might want to sit up and take notice of Ama’s Lullaby. It is a point & click adventure featuring a command-line based hacking game by solo developer, Mercy Ground Creations. The game is currently in the final hours of its Kickstarter campaign and with only three days to go time is running out to become a backer

The Last of Us is definitely one of those games that is almost reason enough to justify the purchase of a PS3 if you don’t already own one. The storyline is gripping, the action scenes incredible and even just exploring the many outstanding locations you travel through is a thrill. The combat in particular is a highlight with tense battles against enemies that will do their best to take you down. There can be no doubt that The Last of Us is one of the best, if not the best game available on PS3.
Gameplay: Tense battles against bandits and infected ensures that this game keeps you on the edge of your seat.
Graphics: Naughty Dog once again demonstrates that they know how to harness the power of the PS3.
Sound: Excellent voice acting, great music and solid sound effects

Queen’s Quest 2 features a different lead character than part one, but improves on the original game in all areas. There is a large cast of fairytale and folklore characters to interact with, beautiful hand-drawn locations, plenty of puzzles as well as a variety of hidden object scenes. While the game isn’t very taxing, it remains entertaining throughout and we can certainly recommend it to fans or those who are curious about the genre.
Gameplay: Neither the puzzles or hidden object scenes are very difficult, but remain fun.
Graphics: Beautiful artwork and plenty of variety.
Sound: Decent music and the voice acting isn’t too bad either

After seeing how the Tomb Raider franchise was milked dry and ran into the ground I was a bit hesitant to pick up Legend. Fortunately Crystal Dynamics did a great job capturing all the elements that made the series a blockbuster back in the day. Its not a very long adventure, but despite a few annoyances it is well worth checking out.
Gameplay: A welcome return to the roots of the series.
Graphics: Good but could have been much better if created from the ground up for the Xbox360.
Sound: Decent voice acting and a nice soundtrack

Definitely one of the most engrossing, entertaining and action packed games I’ve played in a long time. Despite some minor flaws, this game is essential to any good game collection.
Gameplay: A bit slow paced & frustrating at times but has it’s moments.
Graphics: Not outstanding but for the genre it’s not too shabby.
Sound: Decent voice overs and nice music

The Wardrobe isn’t the easiest of point & click adventures, but it is very entertaining and clearly made by people who love the genre. As Skinny the skeleton, you must navigate a neighborhood filled with crazy characters in an effort to save your friend’s soul from eternal damnation. The game sports some some beautifully detailed visuals and every scene is filled with references and homages to pop culture. If you fondly remember titles such as Day of The Tentacle, Sam & Max, and Discworld, then The Wardrobe should not be missed.
Gameplay: Feels like a classic point & click adventure, complete with the high difficulty of the puzzles.
Graphics: Beautiful and detailed visuals that are hand illustrated and digitally colored.
Sounds: Nice tunes and decent voice acting

Hidden Folks is a game in which you search large, detailed, hand-drawn landscapes for people and items. This is repeated across different themed areas, each with large and small levels. The gameplay is simple but addictive, while the monochrome visuals and mouth-originated sound effects further add to the charm. If you are looking for something that is easy to pick up and play but challenging enough to keep you busy for a while, then we recommend you give Hidden Folks a chance.
Gameplay: The game is very simple, but finding all the hidden folks is quite a challenge.
Graphics: The art style looks great, and some of the larger scenes are really impressive.
Sound: Instead of traditional audio, the game uses mouth-originated sound effects for everything

Among The Innocent features a very unique setting, interesting story and puzzles that are immensely satisfying to solve. It also manages to keep you on edge the whole time, despite your idyllic surroundings, which is impressive for a game with no jump scares. There are some rough edges, but nothing that should deter you from grabbing this game and helping its protagonist crack the mystery.
Gameplay: Explore a desolate farmstead while solving puzzles using everyday objects.
Graphics: Nothing mind-blowing, but gets the job done and sets the mood perfectly.
Sound: The audio is rather low-key, but definitely enhances the creepy atmosphere
