Midnight from Marvel
- Platforms: PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, PC and Nintendo Switch
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
creators of XcomStrategy games got a Marvel spin. In this game, too, you fight in a turn-based manner as you control a team of heroes from above, but the Marvel variant feels more streamlined and a bit more random. This also makes the game a bit simpler, but it won’t get too easy.
You play a self-made hero who wakes up to defeat an ancient villain. You control a team of popular superheroes from a secret base – a storyline that basically serves as an excuse to bring together every popular Marvel character. You can interact and bond with almost any hero in your home. This ensures that you talk a lot in the beginning.
But as soon as you start the game and get more involved in the battle, it will be very interesting to get into it with your teeth.

Chained Echoes
- Platforms: Xbox One, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, PC, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5
- Score: 5 out of 5 stars
In seven years, this Japanese-themed RPG has been made by a German developer. The result is a tribute to the old classics that came before the Super Nintendo – and a game that far surpasses its peers.
You lead a group of eight adventurers trying to figure out how a mysterious superweapon blew up an entire country. A story that seems simple at first, but is very well written. It is especially remarkable that the game was made by one person: the story has a kind of authorship that you don’t see in large-scale productions.
The battles are turn-based, just like in classic role-playing games. Unique is that you restore all of your life points and techniques between battles, thus entering each battle at full strength. This was taken into account when designing the game, which means that you have to be on your guard against any opponent. It’s rare to hit A until an enemy dies – you have to work hard to kill even simple monsters.
There is no such thing as old growth in a level. Instead, after boss fights and other important moments, you get points that you can invest in your characters, choosing what you become better at. In addition, the game world is full of optional bosses and upgrades. The result is an exceptionally good game, which outperforms other RPGs this year.

Simple appearance Vampire survivors It’s already a hit on PC and Xbox, but it’s also coming out as a free smartphone game this month. The idea behind it is pretty simple: walk around with your character attacking automatically, collecting upgrades and killing ever-growing groups of monsters.
It won’t take long for your screen to fill up with hundreds of enemies at once, but your upgrades at the same time make you a kind of killing machine. The deeper you go into the game, the more new weapons you unlock and the more complex it gets.
It is a game full of secrets. Every time you think you know how it all works, a whole new game mechanic is added. It gives a massive kick, keeping us feeling great all evening long.
