Windows (10000 programs)

Pros: A massive number of new maps and units. Almost every addition is available in multiplayer.

Cons: Many don't have their own death/destruction animations. Some copy-pasted assets still look flat in 2.5D.

Pros: New puzzle solutions make sense within the context. Story takes some odd and interesting turns.

Cons: More graphics upgrades would have been nice. Health system changes make it too easy for veteran players.

Pros: Features 36 levels with bonus phases and tribute levels. Game objects have particular characteristics. Supports redefinable keyboard controls and Kempston or Sinclair joystick. Plenty of color variety keeps visuals from becoming stale.

Cons: Being limited to the ZX Spectrum system and emulators limits the game’s appeal. Graphics and audio are very dated by today’s standards.

Pros: Brilliant artwork and great attention to detail. Tightly paced without being too brisk and stressful.

Cons: Small game mechanics aren’t always immediately obvious. Let you reuse old drinks rather than throwing them away.

Pros: A massive amount has been added to this game. Rebalanced and optimized to include all the new features.

Cons: Definitions of difficulty levels should be added. A fog of war removal cheat would have been nice.

Pros: Many customized in-game assets. Third-party controllers can be used.

Cons: There is no multiplayer option. Only supports English dialogue.

Pros: Brilliantly designed to enhance Portal 2 in every way. Dramatically improves the gameplay experience.

Cons: Perhaps extend the length of some levels. Perhaps add more original levels.

Pros: Highly immersive. Challenging gameplay. Teamwork and strategy.

Cons: Steep learning curve.

Pros: Fair and pretty well-balanced modification. Beyond Cold War-era does add to gameplay length.

Cons: Very similar to CWE. Veteran Victoria 2 players won’t be challenged by this mod.

Pros: Looks far better than the original mods and games looked. The map is massive but easily loadable on modern devices.

Cons: Trading in the modded free-play game is very basic. A mod for fans and veterans rather than new players.

Pros: Map design is very consistent and cleverly laid out. Story and visuals are similar to the Blair Witch movie.

Cons: The ending is very anti-climactic. Loud repeated noises at the end are not fun.

Pros: Many new modes and features to extend the game’s life. Adds perfectly integrated game mechanics and rule changes.

Cons: Unbalanced game modes may not suit new players. No population cap may slow down older devices.

Pros: An Eastern Europe variety of anime art style. Well-optimized, mechanically efficient, and flowing gameplay.

Cons: Frequent changing of themes seems to stunt the story’s narrative. Adult humor seems out of place in a narrative context.

Pros: Ideal for casual gaming enthusiasts. Numerous different possible endings.

Cons: Exploration may become repetitive. Some may feel that this game does not provide enough challenges.

Pros: Evocative Apocryphauna card art and text. Smart writing that combines the fantastic with grounded observation. Intelligent, humane handling of potentially painful subjects.

Cons: Dated, simplistic graphics outside of card art. Short playing time.
