Stellaris: First Contact Story Pack
 – 

Reasonable additions*****

This adds some nice new interactions with primitives, and a couple of other options. Nothing groundbreaking especially with how rare and small a part of the game primitives are, but still nice to have the additional content.

Stellaris: Toxoids Species Pack
 – 

Fun new features*****

This pack adds some quite unique playstyles and origins, so I would recommend picking this up if any of it interests you!

Last Train Home
 – 

Great tactics game!*****

The tactics gameplay are great. The class variety is solid, the mix of stealth and action makes for interesting choices, and the management layer and storytelling is compelling. The game brings to life a little explored time period and an almost forgotten piece of history. I'd thoroughly recommend this game!

Cities: Skylines - Content Creator Pack: Modern City Center
 – 

Cosmetic Bump*****

The content pack adds some nice cosmetics to capture the city centre feel most of us probably experience, which is appreciated for a more varied game though doesn't change gameplay at all.

Cities: Skylines - Sunset Harbor
 – 

Small additions adding up*****

A decent set of additions similar to previous DLC packs, improving a few areas for greater variety

Cities: Skylines - Content Creator Pack: Bridges & Piers
 – 

Iconic city centrepieces*****

Bridges make a stunning centrepiece to most cites as focal points along rivers and harbours, so some visual flash to help them fit with your theme is a good addition

 –

Stellaris: Overlord
 – 

Expanding Posessions*****

Overlord expands upon the vassalisation system and possession of subject empires to make it a far more engaging and interesting system allowing for networks of diplomatically interconnected empires and power blocks not previously in the game. The hyperspace relays are also game changing for infrastructure and warfare and a nice addition to the game.

Total War: WARHAMMER III
 – 

Great finale to series*****

Total Warhammer 3 brings a great series to a good conclusion, especially in the form of Immortal Empires with it's world-spanning map and all the prior races. This game has so much potential going forward too, and will be a favourite for years to come.

Total War: WARHAMMER II - The Silence & The Fury
 – 

Solid addition*****

As with many of the Total Warhammer 2 DLCs, this offers a reasonable addition with the two new factions. The beastmen in particular are interesting, with their ability to rampage through an area quickly raising huge armies.

DARK SOULS™ Remastered
 – 

Challenging!*****

Dark Souls - infamous for it's challenge - is looking good in this remaster. As a first dip into Dark Souls I can indeed confirm it is very difficult!

 – 

Good concept, struggled implementation*****

Unfortunately, poor sales seems to have lead this game to be rushed to release - meaning the great concept within has not been seen through as well as hoped.

Shortest Trip to Earth - The Old Enemies
 – 

Building on a great title*****

Shortest Trip to Earth is a great game which itself builds on the FTL-like formula. This DLC continues to add new variety to the game.

Kerbal Space Program: Breaking Ground Expansion
 – 

Continued improvement*****

Building on KSP's already considerable base, this expansion continues to add new parts and options which are always a welcome addition to the massive sandbox.

Stellaris: Nemesis
 – 

Underwhelming*****

The highlight of this expansion was to 'become the crisis' but this system seems a little underwhelming. By the time you get there you're probably steamrolling. It comes with unique ship types (menacing corvette/destroyer/cruisers) but these use the pirate models which look very out of place as a proper, advanced empire - you'd expect them to have a new ship set or at least use your normal one with highlights. They also use minerals which seems useful but by the time you get to them (3 ascension perks plus) you have tooled you your economy for alloys which suddenly becomes almost useless.

The update is decent but the DLC's main feature is not.

As Far As The Eye
 – 

Challenge but interesting*****

Longish tutorial but that was ok. Gameplay can become surprisingly challenging. There seems to be a little progression between games but it isn't obvious or clear how that works. Still an interesting game with a unique blend of mechanics.

Northgard - Brundr & Kaelinn, Clan of the Lynx
 – 

Interesting theme*****

The Lynx clan has interesting mechanics based around killing wolves/bears and summoning mythical animals to kill. However they are a very military focused clan and have little in the way of economic or other bonuses, making them difficult to play peacefully.

Great story, but lots of waiting*****

Great story driven martian citybuilder/terraforming game. However there seemed to be a lot of idle time just waiting for my resources to gather, workers to do stuff etc. Maybe I could have been optimising more but it didn't need me to.

I did suffer a few spirals as everything went bad but somehow managed to recover, however I would say the game can be very punishing!

Northgard - Lyngbakr, Clan of the Kraken
 – 

Unique Clan*****

A very unique clan which really changes up the way the game plays, focusing on coastal tiles over inland tiles, getting all sorts of different bonuses. A really nice change of pace.

Stellaris: Lithoids Species Pack
 – 

Interesting new species*****

New portraits, ship sets etc are good very good, but the best bit is the new mechanics associated with the lithoids, eating minerals and having a few new traits etc.
