A game review is an evaluation of a video game that provides insights into its gameplay, graphics, story, and overall experience. Reviewers often assess various aspects, such as controls, difficulty, and replay value, to help potential players decide if the game is worth their time and money. Typically, game reviews are published on websites, magazines, or video platforms, and they may include a rating system, such as stars or scores. Popular review sources include IGN, GameSpot, and Metacritic, which aggregate reviews to give an overall impression of a game's quality.
