★★★★★ | A joyous replica of the past recreated for future generations.
★★ | Hugely ambitious and rife with ideas, Of Ash and Steel is an unpolished and deeply broken throwback to an era most have left behind.
A new name and a new look to celebrate five great years with you fine people.
★★★ | Ambitious and unexpected, Alex Noyer's second feature doesn't always connect, but its thrills are a welcome addition to the folk horror genre.
★★ | As uneven and bloated as the first part, Wicked: For Good is twice as long as it needs to and far more boring than a musical of this caliber should be.
★★★★★ | Packed with superb design and a kicking soundtrack, Sektori is pure twin-stick shooter nirvana that is as close to arcade perfection as you can get.
★★★ | Winter Burrow is beautiful and wonderfully written adventure brought down by obtuse and frustrating design choices.
★★★ | Mostly fun and handsomely produced, The Running Man suffers from a lack of conviction that robs it of urgency and impact.
★★★★★ | The OnePlus 15 is one of the best phones of the year and the flagship to beat when it comes to battery life.
★★★★★ | Smartly designed, impeccably produced, and tremendously enjoyable, Anno 117 is one of the best games in its genre this year.
★ | Tediuous, tiresome, and unbearably smug. Now You See Me, Now You Don't is a failed magic trick in every conceivable way.
★★★★ | Often sublime but mostly simply fine, The Outer Worlds 2 is a good enough game that could be so much more.
