Lessaria arrives as an earnest attempt to update Majesty’s old indirect-control formula for a modern audience, and that sense of purpose is the clearest thing the game carries into each mission. Rather than trading in twitch reflexes, its design keeps the player one step removed – shaping incentives, building economies and issuing costly orders while watching funded heroes go about their lives. That choice gives Lessaria a distinct identity: the fun comes from coaxing emergent moments out of a living world rather than micromanaging unit paths.

DLC roundup: Halls of Torment, Railway Empire 2 & Autobahn Police Simulator 3
We’re checking out three new DLC releases today. From Chasing Carrots’ Halls of Torment, which deepens its gothic survival loop with The Boglands’ swampy decay mechanics, to Kalypso’s Railway Empire 2, which heads east with the culturally rich Steel Dragons expansion, each pack builds on solid foundations with focused tweaks and regional flavour. Autobahn Police Simulator 3 joins the wave with its Speed Trap and Police Motorcycle add-ons, extending the life of its motorway patrols through a mix of methodical enforcement and high-speed pursuit. None of these releases rewrite their respective formulas, but together they highlight how well-judged content drops can refine, vary, and reenergise established games without losing sight of what made them work in the first place.

Double Dragon Revive review (PS5)
Double Dragon Revive brings the legendary brawler franchise back to life under the guidance of YUKE’S and Arc System Works, promising a modernized take on the 1980s classic. It revives the Lee brothers’ familiar journey through gang-ridden streets with updated 3D visuals and a smoother control setup tailored for current-gen consoles. The story remains intentionally simple, serving mainly as a backdrop for the action – a nostalgic loop of rescue missions, street fights, and escalating boss encounters that retain the flavor of the series’ arcade origins.

Escape Simulator 2 review (PC)
Developed and published by Pine Studio, Escape Simulator 2 builds upon the success of its predecessor with richer environments, more elaborate puzzles, and improved multiplayer functionality. The sequel’s three core room packs – Dracula’s Castle, Starship EOS, and The Cursed Treasure – highlight just how far the design philosophy has evolved. Each setting offers its own mechanical logic and visual tone, from gothic corridors shrouded in candlelight to futuristic metallic decks and tropical islands laced with traps. Beneath the variety lies a structure that feels both familiar and sharper, favouring interconnected clues over simple key-and-lock progressions. Continue reading “Escape Simulator 2 review (PC)”
