Game Atlas Review, in English
The atlas is written in British English and priced on the UK stores. This address is the language edition: everything on the chart is reachable from here, and the country guides below explain what changes when you read the chart from somewhere other than the UK.
The scores and the entries are the same in every country guide. What differs is the currency, the store you buy from and the consumer rules that protect you.

The country guides
United Kingdom is the home edition and the source of every price on the chart. Canada, Switzerland, Germany, France and Poland each have a guide that says which currency and store to use, how people there usually pay, and which cooling-off and refund rules apply instead of the UK ones.
If your country is not listed
The chart still applies: the games, the bearings and the starter waypoints do not change with geography. Convert the pounds on each entry, check your local store for the current price, and use the spending-limits page, which covers the same platforms everywhere.
