If my computer wasn't so bad the game would be beautiful. Phenomenal world design with variety and a great colour palette. Similarly to AC: Origins, it drifts away from the typical Assassin's Creed vibes into more of an RPG so whether that's for you, is up to you. There is an endless supply of side missions that award exploration of the world handsomely. Shame to see the series drift away from the fun feel that the original games had but regardless, a very strong game.

Planet Coaster is a great game that offers a huge range of customization. I love the fact that the devs have implemented the workshop feature into the game, making the import of custom blueprints effortless. The game has a great community, and is really fun just to kick back, put on some music, and build to your heart's content. I do have two negatives unfortunately.
1) There isn't really much micromanagement. I know that you can train the staff, increase wages and adjust food prices, but I would really like to see them go deeper into the possibilities in terms of micro management. I'd like to have a wider variety of staff to choose from, not just the generic janitor and the generic mechanic.
2) The PATHS. The paths really make or break a theme park. In essence, they are the cement between the bricks, but they are such a pain to use. Some paths don't connect, some paths can't be placed due to the terrain (another fantastic feature) and the fact that you can't use queue paths for the exit of rides really bugs me.

Overall, I think this is a great game, and it looks as though the devs are contiuosuly acting upon feedback from the communtiy. I would highly recommend this game to anyone who likes city builders, or really just any games involving customization, because that is what this offers - lots and lots and lots of deep customization.

This game is a joke. Hopefully an intentional one, because if not, either I'm stupid (most likely). or there is no way to start a new game. Morale of the story, replayability = 0

Besides the bugs and the occasional dodgy graphics, H1Z1 is a great game to play with friends and have a laugh. If you are looking for the best game mechanically and graphically, this isn't for you, but in terms of the fun scale. I'd give it an 8 out of 10

XCOM 2 builds upon what XCOM Enemy Uknown started. In my opinion, this is one of the best turn based strategy games I have played. Fun. Decent story. Decent Graphics. Great mechanics

Dying light offers a Walking Dead experience partnered with great parkour mechanics. A great game that will offer hours of playability

Dishonored has some great stealth aspects. Really fun to just sneak around and take out all the guards before they knew what hit them. Only negative, I found the charcters really boring, I didn't feel involved with Corvo or Emily.

This could have been a good game. It has the same framework as all the LEGO games I used to play on the WII, but this just felt sloppy. If you don't have a controller, there is no point buying this game - controls are poorly optomized.

Prison Architect has good yet simple graphics, hours of replayability, a super fun escape mode that you can use to challenge your friends or other members of the community and a huge amount of things to build and ways to build them. There are only two negatives in my opinion and they are the limited 'Skill tree' and the campaign which was really just a disguised tutorial

Game Dev Tyccon is a great indie game with simple artwork and a basic storyline, however aside from the small amount of story you get, you have hours of replay ability, trying to find the best combination for your games and build the ultimate gaming company.
