Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 is not the vampire adventure you were hoping for, but it also isn't the massive disappointment you might have expected given its troubled development process. Even though the game clearly needs more development time, especially since the ending feels particularly rushed, there is some charm to Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2. The gameplay can be truly engaging, thanks to the vampiric powers and dynamic traversal... as long as you don't spend too much time in its melee combat.

Heartworm is an imperfect but emotionally powerful experience. It doesn't revolutionize survival horror, but it demonstrates a deep understanding of what made the classics special. Its greatest success lies in using nostalgia as a vehicle to explore universal themes of loss and grief.

Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Hinokami Chronicles 2 is a competent game, especially for fans of the series. There are some cool additions, like dual ultimates which will let you create some dream teams and perform beuatiful cinematic finishing moves. The story mode is also pretty solid, allowing you to navigate through the latest story arcs from the anime, but also including interesting features that turn this into a slightly more ambitious project than your run-of-the-mill anime videogame. Definitely give it a try.

The Enhanced Edition fulfills its basic function of making the game accessible on modern platforms, but it does so in an uninspired way. It's functional without being exceptional, stable without being polished, and available without being desirable.

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 on PC is currently a bittersweet experience. The base game is exceptional, with an engaging narrative and polished gameplay, but technical issues are too frequent to ignore. Even with powerful hardware like our setup, the experience is far from optimal.

Coridden is the perfect example of how an original idea can shine even when the execution isn't perfect. Its unique transformation and cooperation mechanics, along with its interesting mix of setting, make it a unique experience that deserves the attention of co-op action RPG lovers.

Death Trap proves that the series' basic formula is still a hell of a lot of fun. The moments of triumph, when your traps work in perfect sync, or when you throw an orc into a lava pit and watch it bounce off the saw blades, are still just as satisfying as they were a decade ago.

Fairy Tail 2 is a good game, especially for those who are already familiar with the anime. The redesign of the gameplay helps to give the adventure some freshness, although it can easily become repetitive after a few hours. Overall, it is a title that works well as a companion to the anime.

For those looking for a realistic and challenging boxing experience, Undisputed already offers a solid foundation. With continued updates and a growing roster of boxers, this title has everything it needs to become a modern classic of boxing sports video games, but it still has some room for improvement.

G.I. Joe: Wrath of Cobra is a game that, despite having the ingredients to be a worthy homage to classic brawlers, fails in almost every important aspect.

Funko Fusion is like that limited edition Funko Pop figure you buy with all your hopes up: full of potential, but not without its flaws. It has all the ingredients to be a feast for fans: Beloved franchises, iconic characters, a fun premise, gameplay reminiscent of the best moments from LEGO games.

Enotria: The Last Song is a work that stands out for its visual beauty and thematic originality, but it fails to reach the level of execution necessary in its gameplay. The mask system, although innovative, is not well balanced, and combat, an essential pillar in any Souls-like, is hampered by imprecise controls and mechanics that limit the player's freedom. The narrative, although intriguing, fails to develop in a coherent way, leaving the player with more questions than answers.

Bleak Faith: Forsaken is an ambitious and bold offering within a market saturated with Dark Souls-like games. It stands out for its suffocating atmosphere, enigmatic world, and intricate combat system, providing an experience that will attract followers of the genre. However, it is not without imperfections. Directional issues, some mechanics that could be improved, and certain technical aspects may cause frustration for less experienced players in the genre. Despite these problems, it is impossible not to appreciate the achievements of Archangel Studios with such a small team. They have developed a captivating universe...

South Park: Snow Day! seemed to me like a rather vague attempt to capitalize on the franchise that gave us such good results with previous titles. A game that falls short in many aspects and where the low budget is noticeable. It's fun when you play it with friends, but it's not a game that will go down in history. Considering the franchise it is, something much more ambitious could have been done.

Skull and Bones has ended up being a rather decent game for the catastrophe it could have become. Playing it, you understand why Ubisoft didn't decide to cancel it and gave it a chance. The work of the French multinational may not be the ultimate pirate fantasy, but it is indeed an open-world game with MMO elements and a solid gameplay foundation. It's not a game for everyone, and only time will tell if it ends up being so.

Bandle Tale: A League of Legends Story provides an intriguing peek into the world of Yordles, Runeterra's most endearing race. In this latest offering from Riot Forge, developed in collaboration with Lazy Bear Games, we're treated to a straightforward yet engaging storyline. However, the gameplay leaves me somewhat torn. Is it a tad monotonous, or am I simply missing its charm? Despite its shortcomings—like mundane fetch quests and tedious walks—the game's vibrant world and charming characters manage to salvage the experience.

Here is a fun and entertaining proposal that has its pros and cons, just like The House of the Butterflies. The game is a bit short (between 15-20 hours), which is not bad at all, but unfortunately it becomes too repetitive. The combat feel is good and Hellboy moves well, but everything becomes very linear and repetitive. It is entertaining and a treat for fans of the hero, the setting and artistic design are sublime, and the gameplay is good and simple, but it all falls short of something bigger. The proposal to set the story of Mike Mignola is fulfilled and hopefully it will be the prequel to many more.

The Crew Motorfest is an interesting racing video game that is committed to the open world, variety and spectacularity, but unfortunately it forgets to offer more polished driving and does not quite find its own style. If you are looking for entertainment and an arcade experience you should give it a try, but if you ask for more you will end up disappointed.

Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventure of Dai is a video game that struggles to answer one of the most basic questions that must be asked when considering a project of this type: who is this game for? On the one hand, it falls short for those who have experienced the anime, and at the same time it also falls short for those who want to immerse themselves in Dai's story for the first time.

It is a game with an incredible base, original mechanics and that offers hours of content. In itself, Payday 3 is a ton of fun, and if you play it with friends, it's even more fun. But although not much can be said bad about that base, it has been frustrated by a very bittersweet launch with constant server crashes, matchmaking errors, some bugs, among others. Of course, nothing that cannot be solved and that will not at all allow it, once fixed, to become a truly great game that I recommend to everyone.

Invader Studios has done a remarkable job over the previous edition. While Daymare: 1998 was a good game, this prequel beats it on pretty much everything. Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle manages to hook and catch us to pass it to us in one sitting but suffers from many seams in the strongest points of what is expected of a survival horror.

Everybody 1-2-Switch! it's the perfect game when friends come over. This sequel to Nintendo's new party games saga proposes a remix of minigames where there is something for everyone and for all tastes; although you will probably end up forgetting about some of them in order to enjoy the best ones. Disagreements between colleagues are taken for granted.

Redfall is an open world game that does preserve some of Arkane's biggest virtues regarding game design, but at the same time it also feels held back by its own genre. It will probably grow into something much bigger in the future, but I felt conflicted from the very first moment I finished it. As of right now, I feel that in spite of its good points, the best thing about Redfall is what it could become... and I don't really know whether that is a good or a bad thing.

High on Life has its fair share of good ideas and highlights, but there are several issues that do not allow the game to shine as much as it could. Even if the comedy aspect is exactly what you may expect from the creators of Rick & Morty, it does not work as good as in the series, and all of the jokes you come through do not really add much to the overall experience. Nevertheless, it is a fun game with characters that really help what it intends to do.

Dragon Ball: The Breakers feels like a lackluster experience that in spite of being able to give the player some good moments, falls extremely short. It is awful from a technical standpoint, but it also misses the point on key elements such as the matchmaking or the balance between survivor and villain. In all honesty: it should have been a free-to-play game.

Scorn is different and original in its own way, an experience that you should give a chance if you know what you face. Although, if you are most demanding it will not be your game at all.

Rollerdrome is a roller coaster that goes uphill so that the tracks end just as you are about to go down it. It is one of those games that accompanies you through an incredible learning process. And just when you're ready for the best; just when you're ready to let yourself be hugged by it... it ends up leaving you wanting more.

Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising was supposed to be a simple introduction to the Eiyuden Chronicle world... but instead it becomes a tedious exploration of a TON of secondary, unnecessary quests. In the end, the beauty of its world as well as the simplicity of its design are not allowed to shine as they most certainly could.

Shredders has its fair share of good intentions; it is meant to be a love-letter to an exciting sport such as snowboard, but in the end it does not manage to excite the player, the main reason being its lack of virtues. It is a fun game... but also a very simple and monotonous one. Unfortunately, it does not manage to shine much within its own genre.

Aeterna Noctis is everything you'd expect from a metroidvania: sprawling, demanding, cryptic, and above all, ripe for mastery. Although multiple design decisions tarnish what would otherwise be an unquestioning masterpiece, it is welcome and recommended for any fan of the genre, especially given its impressive artwork and marvelous mythology.

An okay game full of minigames that help you exercise your brain but that, however, does not have much going for itself in terms of variety of content. Nevertheless, it's possible that in a few days you'll just be completing tests non-stop.

Even if I know that my relationship with stealth titles is kind of 'toxic', Aragami 2 is but one more symptom of that link: I know that it has flaws, but I cannot avoid ignoring them in pursuit of their benefits. In the end, any criticism about its plot, its design or its technology succumbs to the simple but fundamental fact that it is satisfying and fun, leaving behind an experience that, without a doubt, I will fondly remember and recommend to any fan of the genre.

Although Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection does a good job improving the gameplay in general terms thanks to the combination of 60 FPS and 4K/1080p, it lacks significant changes regarding the controls. Unfortunately, the collection does not shine as bright as it could had it been improved at a higher degree, especially when these past few years have seen the successful launch of many great hack n' slash games.

Elite Dangerous: Odyssey is an expansion that has great ideas, but its lack of polish and content prevails over its innovation. As of today, we recommend to wait for its acquisition until Frontier Developments, as it sure will, refines its functionalities, then settling it as one of the most complete MMO of the industry.

Biomutant tries to imitate what we have seen so far in games like The Witcher 3 or the recent entries of the Assassin's Creed franchise... but with a lower budget. Even if its open world is indeed interesting, Biomutant has some clear issues such as a lack of variety in the enemies department, a repetitive gameplay, a progression system with not much to offer and a poor narrative that, in the long run, hurts the general gameplay. However, it manages to still stand throughout all this due to its less than 20 hours duration as well as its magnificent visual aspect, although in the end it simply provides an experience that probably won't stand out much... for better or worse.

Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town is a missed opportunity to make the series a recognized IP. Lots of bugs, mechanics copied from New Horizons poorly implemented, and a boring progression system. The video game is saved by its graphics and its relationship system.

The Medium is a game with neither big flaws nor anything it really excels at. The gameplay is quite simple and the story kind of reaches a mid point in between a horror book and a socio-political discourse that do not really match. In the end, it all amounts to a mediocre game by Bloober Team that, most likely, will have been forgotten by the end of the year.

El Hijo: A Wild West Tale is a work that stands out for its quality and artistic design, as well as the well-devised stealth system with multiple rooms and different situations that will put our wits to work despite its repeatability and scarce narrative.

All of the improvements of the previous years have been completely forsaken in this version of the game. Thus, it merely carries some sort of historical value for European players (given that it had never released before in our territory), but there really is barely anything at all to take out from it.

Call of the Sea could be considered as a narrative puzzle game where the second element is much more relevant than the firs one; although both depend on each other to exist. With a series of puzzles that will take the player into a smooth back and forth between the frustrating process of looking for a solution to the problem and the satisfaction of finding it, Call of the Sea offers a proposal that follows the basic rules of the genre and It is topped off with beautiful art design and a plot that delivers what it promises.

A plotline incapable of generating interest in the player that ends up being as bland as it is dispensable.

Handball 21 is a title whose discipline is not really that popular compared to others and, much like the previous games, it will delight fans of the world of handball, but will be crude and difficult for those unfamiliar with this impressive sport.

XIII returns with an opportunity to redeem himself but with performance improvements to be made. If those fringes are finally solved, he will once again enjoy a luxurious opportunity to convince the players who did not do it before and hold more to a thread of hope for the second half.

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered works perfectly as a nostalgic walk through one of the most beloved titles on PS3. However, the game is far from the greatness it had in its day, completely out of date in terms of multiplayer, progression or customization in comparison to current arcade driving games, which are better at practically everything.

Torchlight III is an RPG that leaves a lot to be desired, especially for those who know the genre very well with games like Diablo. It is obvious that its development is not 100% finished, and it lacks several months of polishing. However, Torchlight III can be fun, but you have to be able to ignore its constant problems.

Open House Games gives us a title with plenty of originality in the approach but in the end turns out to fall into an ellipse of repetition of elements and missed opportunities. A Tale of Paper is a story of great ideas but questionable execution.

Rebirth is a new face to the saga and, thanks in no small part to its magnificent script, it is actually the best game of the franchise. However, it takes a considerable step back as a survival horror. The enemies lack any sense of real terror and the overall difficulty of the game is quite low. Basically, Rebirth is a great adventure game, but it also is extremely disappointing as a horror game.

Game Dev Tycoon brilliantly simplifies the game development process and also perfectly summarizes the history of the videogame industry. It's very satisfying to develop videogames and see their impact on sales. However, it's necessary to mention that Game Dev Tycoon can be quite repetitive, and some current consoles aren't well represented.

The 2007 shooter returns loaded with countless visual enhancements, as well as being once again relevant as a benchmark tool. Although with some rough mechanics, the fun is still there, and visiting the Lingshan Islands has never been so vibrant.

Captain Tsubasa: Rise of New Champions manages to become a good way to experience once again the awesomeness of the original series, although it certainly has room for improvement. In the end, the experience is deep, replayable and a nice first attempt for both Bandai Namco and Tamsoft.

Rocket Arena checks all the boxes regarding what games as a service need in order to succeed. It boasts frenetic gameplay, polished mechanics and a wide range of characters; this game will bring you amazing moments, even if it lacks innovative elements.

We return to Mineral Town with a great facelift that bets on simplicity of mechanics and simplicity in its menus and staging. We find a very classic Harvest Moon-style adventure, where we lose ourselves for days harvesting and improving our farm, but there is something decaffeinated and empty in these times, being a very brief option in terms of ambition.

The problem with Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise is that it aspires to be a cult work from the first moment, something quite pedantic on the part of its author, who wants to repeat the pattern of the original title: an unfinished, poorly done video game, which stands out simply for its great argument.

Chibig Studio have managed to create a magnificent story with incredible, charismatic and endearing characters. All this added to an artistic direction and an impeccable soundtrack. However, Summer in Mara fails in the gameplay, which is repetitive and unsatisfactory.

A platform with touches of action that is satisfied with the provider for several hours and does not aspire to something else. He knows how to keep up, but as he progresses, elements that could take more time are seen, and the workers more on them, the end result could be very different.

With more and more proposals that invite us to be part of a deep and varied tactical and strategic experience, this title of Spanish origin manages to stand out for the linearity of a well-run and interesting story and a group of interesting protagonists who feel alive, with personality. However, he remains halfway in terms of his fights, too basic for those who are used to the genre and a very flat development.

The Outer Worlds comes to Nintendo Switch bringing a high-quality game but through a port that, technically, requires a lots of sacrifices. An enormous graphic downgrade and performance problems make this port the worst version of the game.

Minecraft Dungeons is a game that doesn't live up to expectations. Despite being fun, it is way too small and unpolished to be the next game in the Minecraft series. Playing through the whole game leaves us with the feeling that this is just a prototype rather than the full ARPG game that the fans were expecting.

Munch's Oddysee is the worst work of the Oddworld franchise and comes to Nintendo Switch with a remastering with hardly any changes beyond the technical section to result in a very mediocre title.

Invader Studios has more than paid tribute to the most classic survival horror with Daymare: 1998. Unfortunately, the story that you star as a player in this play is not as interesting as the background of it, which can easily go unnoticed. However, the game has gameplay and a series of mechanics and details that do great justice to the horror titles of the 90s and, especially, to the first Resident Evil.

Ninja Theory debuts within the stream of competitive multiplayer titles with a game which has some gameplay mechanics that are convincing enough to shine on their own, but whose light goes off as you think more about what might become than what already it is.

My Hero One's Justice 2 is a fun way to experience the work of Kouhei Horikoshi. However, a big 'but' makes it really hard to recommend the game as a new entry: its lack of novelties. This sequel feels, at times, very similar to the first game, a simple-minded approach that does not allow the IP to shine as it certainly could.

Sometimes, a 'remake' or a 'remastering' attempts to solve errors that do not exist in the original title. This has been the case: the decrease in difficulty due to different changes in the gameplay has caused us to quickly fall into a monotony that does not exist in the original title.

It's not an essential video game, nor does it seek to be: it meets the playable, although it stands out in terms of fun thanks to its sense of humor. In addition, audio-visual seems like a very round work.

We are getting a 'great game' in its time, an advance to its time, and you have to play it to know what we mean. Although the graphics aspect is simple and its mechanics have aged, it is still enjoyable on Switch.

AO Tennis 2 is a big step forward. This game isn't an ace yet, but it isn't the double fault AO International Tennis was. With lots of content and a decent gameplay core, AO Tennis 2 can be even funny for tennis fans.

Gylt is a game that isn't too good or too bad to be memorable, both in terms of gameplay and narrative. A simple and easy adventure that can entertain anyone for some hours but that doesn't do anything relevant.

If you want to stand out in a genre as overloaded as this, you must do it with ambition, and this new installment of the SEGA franchise continues with its legacy. Have fun, of course, but don't conquer.

Overwatch arrives on Nintendo Switch with a solid port, although it sacrifices important elements such as frame rate, graphic quality and control accuracy, to make use of the advantages of this console. These negative points eclipse in certain measures the excellence of this shooter. However, its speed when playing and versatility to be available on this console, make this version one to take into account.

Quotation forthcoming.

Breakpoint is the result of a work in which the changes show the arrival of novelties to the saga that though they entertain in many aspects may not convince the saga lovers too much.

Konami returns with a new game of its most iconic saga that, although it respects the great doses of action that characterize the franchise, has a series of imperfections that stand in its design and, therefore, in the experience of the player. Despite this, Contra: Rogue Corps can be a worthy proposal if viewed from the right perspective and, above all, if enjoyed in the company of a friend.

Layopi Studios points with great ambition to the production of a game that belongs to that forgotten space between indie and Triple-A productions. Devil’s Hunt manages to be a fun and entertaining action game. However, the final result does not convince at all, and fails to compete as a solid and differentiated proposal from other existing titles in the market.

The addition of way too many systems as well as mechanics have caused all of the good things in Control, which are a lot, to get shadowed by other elements that are either not appropriately resolved or that do not really add to the overall value of the game. It still is a very enjoyable piece due to its gameplay as well as its visual and artistic level, but it inevitably leaves a bittersweet feeling given that it comes from Remedy Entertainment, a studio that I did not expect to leave this many unattended elements in its narrative.

The alternative story mode will delight the original anime followers; the gameplay is frantic and the talent is appreciated, but the reduced number of characters, modes and scenarios looks to us as a nonsense that strikes down a good fighting game.

Growtopia jumps from mobile devices to consoles bringing with it an experience with a structure that does not completely fit into these platforms. Its waiting times and other typical mechanics of the smartphone gaming market make this adaptation a difficult one to enjoy in a traditional way.

Castlevania Anniversary Collection offers almost a dozen awesome games in just one pack. However, these are just ports to modern platforms and, if you compare Konami’s work with what other franchises like Crash bandicoot, Spyro or Resident Evil have achieved with their remakes, Castlevania just falls behind.

Effie is worth more for its artistic value than its ‘product’ value because, even if it feels like a true adventure with good puzzles, platforms and aesthetics, it doesn’t have the same quality in terms of gameplay and content, reducing its proposal to a bad game, but a good experience.

Saladin’s Conquest offers an interesting and accurate campaign, however, in terms of gameplay, the DLC lacks the amount of content needed to be recommended, especially when its price enters the equation.

Weedcraft Inc is a good management sim, but fails to deliver a message, for or against, about marijuana and its social and economical consequences. A lost chance that could have been way more than just a good game.

Beat Cop is a game that shines as bright as it can on Nintendo Switch. Sadly, some flaws from the original version still remain and make it difficult to enjoy the game, even though its mechanics and narrative are really good.

One Piece: World Seeker does not manage to meet the expectations built on its several showings. Instead, we are presented with a conventional open-world game that in spite of having a nice story, it is lacking in most of all the other aspects.

Massira is a title that tries to reflect the experiences of the Syrian refugees. A risky bet due to the complexity of the message, which has been deployed efficiently despite an unrefined control system and thanks to well-chosen playable mechanics.

The LEGO Movie 2 Videogame opts for a simplification of each and everyone of the elements that define the basic formula of the franchise. All with the aim of becoming a more accessible experience for all audiences. Something that is the greatest virtue and at the same time the biggest defect of the game.

Anthem is a game with a superb gameplay that fails in delivering an entertaining experience due to a campaign with no flow, a heartless story and repetitive missions, even in the endgame. Anthem clearly needs months or even years of polishing and content to be what it wanted to be at first.

A demanding title that arrives somewhat late but surprises the old school players.

Crackdown 3 has really tried to take it to the next level. However, in the end it’ll only manage to convince those who already are followers of the franchise. The game is too plain, and it also consists of a multiplayer mode that, as of right now, feels like it is in its early stages.

Jump Force is a good title for manga and anime fans. However, the game does not manage to meet our expectations due to several technical problems as well as the lack of an interesting story.

Far Cry New Dawn is as good as it is inconsequential. Even though it has the great mechanics that characterizes the franchise, its story, allies and villains are empty throughout the game. So, we get an addictive and fun-to-play title that, at the same time, lacks soul and singularity, looking too much like Far Cry 5.

Conarium offers a game with a extremely simple gameplay that relies completely on its narrative aspect. In spite of some flaws, this reimagination of a lovecraftian world is visually stunning and able to catch the players’ attention from the very beginning and retain it through the whole game.

Bleep Bloop is a simple game for puzzle lovers that really shines when played through the local multiplayer option. Nevertheless, the game is far from challenging, and it really would have benefited from trying to mix up some of its mechanics.

FutureGrind is an awesome take on the platforming genre that, despite some flaws, results in a fun and challenging experience from the beginning to the end.

Fallout 76 is a failed experiment. A game that, even with some good points, ultimately fails to deliver an entertaining experience due to its terrible combat system and some technical problems.

Castlevania Requiem is a lost opportunity. The comeback of a couple of masterpieces that are lacking in improvements from a technical point of view and are difficult to recommend to everyone nowadays.

Eternum EX is like a trip back in time, a game with plenty of fun that, nevertheless, may end up being kind of repetitive. Still, it is a good opportunity to enjoy once more the challenges of the traditional arcade.

Even though is a good game, it’s difficult to recommend Grimmwood. Not because it doesn’t deserve it, because it does, but because, being a social experience, it needs a community to sustain its proposal, and not having one kills the essence of the title.

A good RPG game that, despite its lack of depth in gameplay and simplicity in his history, keeps entertaining with its fun characters.
