Tropico 4 but better in every way.

Really is a return to form for the Tropico series. Tropico 5 somehow did not have the magic that 3 and 4 had, but 6 definitely does.

To be honest, this is a very good iteration of the Anno series. It is essentially a reskin of Anno 1404, and in some places it is actually more complex. Yes, they've removed land combat, but let's be honest, it was never very good in the first place. However, some of the late games supply chains are very complex, and if you like a bit of challenge in your citybuilding-resource-trading management game, this one is for you.

This has uplay as another layer of DRM, although that has never been an issue for me.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is half, or even a third of the game that should have been. However, what there is is very good. Great atmosphere, Prague is wonderful, well written characters (generally) and an intriguing story that promises more. Shame it's not finished.

Buy on sale only.

The best Piranha Bytes game since the first Risen.

It is essentially the same game as every other Piranha Bytes game, but in a sci-fi post-apocalyptic skin. Thankfully this one is vaguely technically competent, unlike the piles of garbage that were Risen 2 and 3. Worth buying if it's on sale.

I like clumsily driving a bus with terrible controls around an empty city.

I'm a god. How can you kill a god? What a grand and intoxicating innocence. How could you be so naive?

A hitherto unsurpassed open-world role playing experience. A masterful exercise in world-building; the enthralling, atmospheric and alien island of Vvardenfell awaits you, outlander.
