PlayStation 5 – Page 8 – Play Critically

Bloodroots Review

I give Bloodroots high marks for its narrative and ludic cohesion, bevy of improvised weapons, and slick visual style.

Airoheart is too inexpertly crafted to be enjoyable.

If there’s a reason to play Curse of the Sea Rats, it’s for the phenomenal quality of its animation.

Elderand is competent but does little to subvert my expectations or upset my complacency.

Dredge layers a creepy atmosphere on unique fishing mechanics to create an engrossing and original adventure.

Vengeful Guardian: Moonrider is an adequate retro platformer that plays to its developer’s strengths.

Mortal Shell is a contradiction: an inadequate and acceptable alternative to an infamous inspiration.

Tinykin is a wonderful 3D platformer, almost totally devoid of notable flaws.

Potion Permit has good puzzle and simulation ideas that are ground down by tedious busywork.

Bear & Breakfast is a wonderful, whimsical idea sabotaged by an interminably frustrating interface.
