    Two amazing CING games comeback in an interesting reimagining with astonishing art direction and graphics, the amazing and full of plot twists story from Rika Suzuki with new direction and, although not innovative as the DS/Wii were, still fun and intuitive gameplay. Already played the DS/Wii version? No worries, the new puzzles and direction makes for a new and interesting experience.
  2. The relationship with Ashley keeps him hooked until the very end, thanks to unexpected twists and turns filled with his family's past. Although it is satisfying to find answers to questions at the end of the journey, the end of the adventure leaves a bittersweet feeling. This visit to Blood Edward Island will leave players with unforgettable memories.

    With clever puzzles, likeable characters and a polished, modern reworking, the two Another Code games look great on the Switch. Lengths in the story or the lack of bonus material only amonut to minor drawbacks.

    Another Code: Recollection is a smart and well-made revival for the beloved series that be believed was long forgotten by Nintendo: we are happy to know that it wasn't and that new players and long-time fans alike can now enjoy these two games on their Nintendo Switch.

    If you have fond memories of Another Code, there is definitely value in re-experiencing the original and its sequel. Unfortunately, it feels like a missed opportunity to have made this classic, lesser-known series shine.

    Despite my apathy, I still admire the earnestness on display here. Another Code: Recollection exists because someone really cares for the original titles, and it shows. The two games that make up the collection were niche to begin with, so it takes a certain passion to completely overhaul them to make them presentable to a new audience. This passion shines through the production. So, while Another Code: Recollection didn’t really do much for me, I hope that it finds an audience, whether it’s newcomers to the series or fans of the old.

    Everyone’s a bit anxious, the pacing is all over the place and humour is in rare supply. Buffy, this ain’t.
