A great sequel to Part 1. One of the best isometric racing games on Steam.

Once again there is a fine Gran Turismo feeling here. You can tune your cars, change the oil, repaint and wash the car. There are also weekend races, rallies, championships, 24-hour races, time trials, time of day and weather changes (day/night/snow/rain), everything your heart desires and what makes a good racing game.

The controls are a bit unusual at first, you think the cars are hardly steering, but after a few races you get used to driving. With the right analog stick you can zoom in closer or further away. The soundtrack isn't my taste, but you can play your own music, which is also great.

There are lots of cars from all over the world, unfortunately without licenses and therefore no original manufacturer names. But you can replace the manufacturer names with the help of a Steam guide.

Clear purchase recommendation for anyone who likes this type of car racing game.

Top game! Old school Gran Turismo feeling in pocket size! The top-down perspective works great here. The challenges can be tough and the driving behavior of the cars is demanding and yet arcadey enough to be fun. Well, the crash behavior can be a bit annoying, as your car tends to rotate strongly when it collides with the AI and the AI likes to continue driving unaffected. The safer you are on the routes, the less annoying this is.

I really like the division into normal circuit races, endurance races and rally stages.

I'm really impressed with this retro racing gem and for your money you get a nice, no-frills treat.

We shell fight until Heimdall flows the Gjallarhorn!
We shall fight for our domains!
We shall fight with the war god!

"Carrion" is a small but nice horror metroidvania game in a two-dimensional retro style.

In this game, for a change, you don't take on the role of a hero fighting against monsters, but in the role of a monster, an amorphous creature of unknown origin who just wants to break out of an underground laboratory and escape to freedom.

To escape, you pull yourself across the game world using tentacles, dodging traps, destroying furnishings, blockages and other containment units from which you gain new DNA that grants new abilities. You also defend yourself against humans who are armed with pistols, submachine guns, flamethrowers or even mechs. Hits taken remove valuable biomass from the creature's body, while eating humans restores it. In this way, you work your way from a central hub into several other areas by constantly learning new skills to overcome obstacles. Completely Metroidvania style.

The whole thing is controlled either via controller or mouse and keyboard. The latter works quite intuitively and flawlessly and enables fast movements worthy of a hunter.

Visually, this title is clearly based on the good old retro games. Nevertheless, or perhaps precisely because of this, the well-designed pixel graphics shine with lots of details and always new surprises. The different areas offer enough variety visually, while the game still remains true to its horror atmosphere.

In contrast to the retro graphics, the sound cannot be said to be retro. Every sound is well tuned and high quality. Be it the tearing of metal, the firing of a pistol, the sliding of flesh on concrete or the screams of the killed victims. Everything seems very harmonious in terms of atmosphere and creates a lot of tension.

All in all, "Carrion" is a very interesting Metroidvania game that brings a new twist through its "reverse horror" setting. Even if the price is decent upon release, I would recommend getting it during a sale. It's definitely worth a look and a playthrough.

Mobile phone trash ported to PC. The previous game ("Ghosts of War", no longer available on Steam, thank God) was better, even if it wasn't the greatest thing since sliced bread, but it had soul and personality. The game here is just like "Heroes & Generals" ordered on Alibaba.

Just meh.

“Tannenberg” is from the same development studio as “Verdun” and the game is very good.

The developers have gone a step further with “Tannenberg”. With 64 players and the Eastern Front scenario of World War I with the powers involved, the German Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Russian Empire. If you're looking for a good and realistic shooter, away from the mainstream (Battlefield, CoD), "Tannenberg" is the right choice for you. One shot - one kill! In “Tannenberg” there is “no mercy”.

Whoever storms in there in the best Battlefield or CoD style, he doesn't enjoy the game. Without tactics, teamwork and the use of cover (ditches, houses, forests, teams, etc.), you will not have any success or fun in the game. I can only recommend Tannenberg

"Liberated" is an interactive comic with an interesting story and playable elements. The story asks what happens when a “social score” is introduced for citizens and how it can be misused.

What consequences this can have becomes clear in the first DLC issue. A classic dystopia, bitterly told. The graphics in the playable levels are somewhat reminiscent of “This War of Mine”. The playable elements are somewhat reminiscent of “The Fall”, a shooter with a few jump and run elements and small puzzles.

Cool but a little too short with 4 hours of playing time (6 booklets and alternative paths).
