Hogwarts Legacy is a truly magical, one-of-a-kind game. You could say that while playing, I felt a sense of nostalgia mixed with joy, as if I finally had the chance to truly experience the magic I had read about.

The story is great and the gameplay (casting spells, crafting potions, attending classes, solving quests, dueling, making friends and allies, caring for magical animals and discovering the secrets of the Wizarding World) is a lot of fun. I must say they did an outstanding job on Hogwarts Castle, especially the four Houses. They truly captured the uniqueness of each House - the nobility, courage and loyalty of Gryffindor, the intelligence and creativity of Ravenclaw, the compassion, hospitality and love of nature of Hufflepuff, and finally, the burning ambition, cunning and hunger for power of Slytherin. Each House's decor, location and students are different - just like in the books. Really, an excellent job on these details. Moving on, I just loved the magical beasts, the expanded lore, the quests, the collectibles and of course, the ominous Dark Forest - great work on those too. I also think the combat, spell upgrades, and the chance to learn the Unforgivable Curses are some really cool things worth mentioning.

Thank you very much for this new adventure in the fantastic, fascinating world of Harry Potter that we all know and love.

Resident Evil 4 Remake is one of the best games I've played and definitely one of my favorites. I'll start by saying I'm a huge Resident Evil Universe fan. I remember watching my dad play the original games years ago and even back then they were already amazing. I've played and enjoyed all of the previous Remakes and I must say: this is the best one so far! To put it shortly: everything has been improved! The lore has been expanded and the enemies are even more terrifying. Capcom rose to the challenge, enhanced the story and created a new, spooky experience for both the veterans of the original and the new players that have just started their adventure with Resident Evil. I absolutely loved every second of it! I'm already excited and can't wait for the new games!
As for Ada's DLC - it was amazing and really fun to play as well! Basically, the game is even cooler now: Ada's new abilities, new monsters (Martinico and Pesanta), new challenges, new weapons, new bonuses and new documents to expand the lore even more!
Thanks a lot for remaking this game. The fans appreciate it and are already looking forward to new content yet to come. 💗

Detroit: Become Human is a masterpiece of a story with many different choices, events, outcomes and endings. If a machine shows empathy and makes its own choices... is it still just a machine or is it a living being that deserves to be free?

"You gave us life. And now the time has come for you to give us freedom."

And just one more thing that stood out to me personally. The "palming" between androids when you think about it makes a lot of sense and is really beautiful. It's a way for android couples to transfer data, share memories and connect with one another in an unknown to humans, intimate way.

I was very surprised by Bottle: Pilgrim Redux's beautiful landscapes and atmospheric game chapters that fit narrator's moods and different stages in his life - snow, storm, sunset, beach, mountains, and more. Just like the game description says - Bottle: Pilgrim Redux is a story of loss, regret and redemption. I didn't expect the story to be this emotional.
Congratulations, Tonguç Bodur - great work.

Help the kitty collect colorful fluff balls and stuff them into jars while enjoying calming background music and pretty scenery. A sweet, relaxing, pinkish game, I enjoyed it a lot! <3

Planet of the Apes: Last Frontier is a great story told from two perspectives. The player must decide the fate of a tribe of apes and a group of humans, sometimes having to make tough choices and choose sides. Jess - "human leader" and Bryn - an ape torn between doing what is right and doing what is necessary, both struggle to keep their loved ones safe. Their actions might lead to bloody war or fragile peace, depending on their choices. I really enjoyed the game, although it did feel more like a movie sometimes. I also loved the music, especially the main menu track. <3

So cute! Mr. Whiskers, a round kitty loves all types of food, but dumplings are his favorite. Unfortunately, Mr. Choo, maker of dumplings goes missing. Brave kitty goes on an adventure to find him and eat some tasty treats along the way. Tilt the world to roll around, explore beautiful levels and meet new friends. ❤️

Blacksad: Under the Skin is a great detective game. I could really feel 1950s vibes and enjoyed the story, decision making and collecting clues. Private detective, John Blacksad wants to solve the mystery of a very suspicious death of Joe Dunn, owner of a boxing club and find out why the boxing club's star, Bobby Yale has disappeared shortly before an important fight in his career. Hired by the club's new owner, Dunn's daughter, Sonia, he quickly realizes that there may be much more to the case than he first expected. The clues lead him to the dark part of New York where everything is dangerous and nothing is clear. To solve the case and protect the others, he will have to make tough choices and risk his own life. The stakes are high and time is running out.

Lost Ember, one of my favorite games is really special. The visuals are beautiful and the animals are extra cute. Exploring different parts of the world, each from different perspective (wombats, fish, ducks, goats, buffaloes, armadillos, elephants, fireflies...) was gorgeous and exciting. Kalani, a lost wolf and her spirit companion want to discover the truth about her past and find the City of Light. Throughout their journey, as they learn more and more about Kalani, they are faced with many obstacles and their friendship is put to the test. Lost Ember is a beautiful game about compassion, forgiveness and love. ❤️

Such a beautiful game. The story is very moving and very personal, about mourning our loved ones and having to deal with their absence. Gris, a young girl, is lost in her own fantasy world. Some parts of it are unreal, gorgeous, breathtaking, but the other parts are scary and dangerous. Throughout her journey she is being followed by a mysterious creature (Depression) desperately trying to pull her back into darkness and not letting her leave the fantasy world, move on, get over the loss of someone very dear to her. However, other creatures, which I believe symbolize her friends, family members and other kind souls want to guide her, protect her and help her. In the end it is revealed that Gris is dealing with the loss of her mother or her older sister, and different parts of the world are different stages of grief. Gris finally defeats the creature and forms a pathway to heaven, leaving the fantasy world and accepting the loss of her loved one.The visuals are charming and the music is beautiful. There is no text, only detailed art and animation.
