An indie studio's debut title is always a calling card, and Rumbral is a fantastic first impression. It's a game with a lot of personality, and if you enjoy Limbo-style experiences, you'll love exploring this devastated world and uncovering its protagonist's secret. That said, it's over in the blink of an eye, leaving you wanting much more. Hopefully, this is the start of a series that will expand on all its great ideas in future, longer games.

The Occultist is an experience with some good ideas and standout moments, but it doesn't quite come together. It falls somewhere between what it wants to be and what it could have been. It's a game with its share of interesting elements and plenty of personality, but it needs a little more punch to truly stand out.

The Marvel MaXimum Collection is a very interesting compilation, but it’s far from essential. Its value lies in nostalgia and preservation, rather than in the overall quality of the games. There are some gems, yes, but there’s also a lot of filler and titles that haven’t aged quite as well. Still, it’s worth it for those rare moments when everything clicks and we’re reminded why these games were important.

Marathon is a challenging PvPvE shooter from Bungie that blends intense gunplay, class-based strategy, and loot-driven extraction. Each role feels unique, with distinct abilities and movement, making teamwork and inventory management crucial. The game rewards patience and planning, while its visual identity and lore add depth to the universe of Tau Ceti IV. Steep learning curves and early-game difficulty may frustrate newcomers, but dedicated players will find a rich, satisfying experience.

We’ve enjoyed DAMON and BABY, but we’ve also struggled with some of its more questionable choices. It’s a game with great ideas, a solid foundation, and genuinely fun moments, but it’s held back by quality-of-life issues that could have been avoided. It’s not for everyone, but if you connect with its concept, there’s an interesting adventure waiting beneath that layer of chaos.

Don’t Mess With Bober is one of those games we wouldn’t recommend to everyone… but we can’t ignore it either. It’s clunky, it’s short, it’s uneven… and yet, it has something special. We’ve gotten frustrated, yes. We’ve died more times than we’d like to admit. But we’ve also laughed, and that doesn’t always happen in the horror genre. Sometimes all it takes is a crazy idea, an angry beaver… and a real desire to cause chaos. Would we play it again? Obviously not. Do I regret having played it? Not at all.

John Carpenter's Toxic Commando is a cooperative shooter that gets straight to the point: a chaotic zombie party with an '80s aesthetic. Its most spectacular moments, when hundreds of enemies advance toward your team while turrets spit fire, are fun, and the addition of vehicles and open maps introduces fresh ideas into a rather exploited genre. However, the game rarely manages to overcome the feeling that it is combining elements already seen in other titles, and the feeling of repetition sets in very quickly.

Gear.Club Unlimited 3 is a title with good intentions and a competent gameplay foundation. However, it accumulates too many technical issues, the driving feel and physics are poor, the AI does not behave well, and the absence of online multiplayer along with the very limited content weigh too heavily.

My Hero Academia: All’s Justice is a game that wants to be many things at once: a tribute, a farewell, a celebration, and an evolution of the franchise. It partly succeeds, especially when it lets the player enjoy its huge roster and its best fights without artificial restrictions. But its balance problems, a poorly tuned difficulty curve, and uneven execution prevent it from reaching the greatness it promises. A farewell with heart and ambition, but also with too many thorns along the way. Fans will know how to forgive them; everyone else, perhaps not so much.

Ultimately, this title is a mix of good ideas and uneven execution. It has a clear identity, dares to experiment with less common proposals within the genre, and delivers a well-crafted atmosphere. But when the core mechanics (such as combat, stealth, or resource management) are not properly tuned, the whole experience suffers. A survival game with personality that fails to make the most of its potential. Recommended only for die-hard fans of the genre or of the original comic.

Quarantine Zone: The Last Check is a very focused proposition, but one that puts you in a highly original role within the whole zombie imagery. It’s not perfect and can quickly fall into repetition, but it offers an uncomfortable, tense, absurd, and fun experience in equal measure.

Code Vein II is a sequel that remains firmly anchored to its genre tropes; while it excels through its flashy, high-octane combat systems, it ultimately stumbles when it comes to narrative depth and meaningful character development.

An experiment with good intentions and a recognizable core, but with too many questionable decisions surrounding it. Recommended especially for fans with patience... and anyone who wants the pack for Bubble Symphony almost as much as for the novelty.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond arrives as an ambitious title that attempts to reinterpret what a Metroid game means in 2025. At its core, when it sticks to exploration and environmental design, it's brilliant. But when it tries to take the game into open structures, chatty companions, and unpolished new mechanics, it loses a lot of its power.

A short, atmospheric, and highly guided investigative noir, perfect for those who want to solve a crime from their sofa in a single night, but far from the great references of the genre in terms of depth, surprise, and ambition.

Possessor(s) is a bold, distinctive Metroidvania with a very strong identity. It features a mature storyline, endearing characters, and a memorable world. Its atmosphere, visual style, and plot are all very well crafted. However, it stumbles in key areas such as combat fluidity, exploration clarity, and some technical issues. Furthermore, it doesn't stand out in almost any way, which is not good in a genre saturated with so much competition.

Bittersweet Birthday pairs beautiful pixel art and an emotional premise with a clever Memories system, but its pacing falters. Confusing object-trading sections and frequent narrative interruptions hurt the flow, while combat remains simple and limited. A charming yet uneven indie experience.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is a contradictory title, caught between the need to evolve the series and the fear of leaving behind what defines it. Its gunplay is still superb and the Zombies mode shines brightly, but the campaign is a huge drag and Endgame fails to deliver the excitement and clarity needed to become a new benchmark. When everything clicks, you have fun. When it fails, it's all too noticeable. It's an enjoyable COD, yes, but far from the level expected of a numbered Black Ops. A hard blow to the series that may set the course from now on.

Tales of Xillia Remastered brings back a key JRPG, but with a bare-bones upgrade. The combat still shines, yet the technical improvements are minimal and the visuals clearly betray their PS3 origins. A competent but unambitious return that works, though it never fully justifies its comeback.

A Pizza Delivery is, ultimately, an honest and very personal work, but also rough around the edges. It's clear that the main objective was to express something about loneliness, depression, and empathy. If you are drawn to contemplative narrative adventures, games that are better “understood” the next day than when the credits roll, and you are not afraid to forgive bugs or somewhat clumsy sections, here you will find a short but soulful journey.

Double Dragon Revive isn't a disaster, but it's not the revival the series deserved either. You can see the love for the franchise and there are some interesting ideas, especially in the combat and visual art. But the execution is uneven: the controls aren't polished, the balance is broken, and the level design is uninspired.

Although aimed at children, adults can also thoroughly enjoy SOPA: Tale of the Stolen Potato. It is an adventure filled with nostalgia and lighthearted humor, which even manages to tug at the heartstrings with its familiar connection to our beloved grandmothers.

LAN Party Adventures does not seem like a game made for all audiences. It works through that nostalgia effect, and it would be strange for new generations to enjoy building a PC the old-fashioned. For everyone else, it is an experience to try and enjoy.

Keeper is a game that stands out for its premise and beautiful artwork. However, that overly simplified premise, combined with repetitive gameplay, means that it doesn't quite manage to hook us.

King of Meat is a chaotic, over-the-top party game with simple but varied combat, absurd humor, and vibrant, destructible arenas. Best enjoyed to play with friends, it delivers laughs, spectacle, and memorable moments, though solo play can feel overwhelming.

Hotel Barcelona is a game we will remember more for its extravagance than for its quality. A title that will thrill fans of its creators, but will hardly convince those looking for a polished and addictive roguelike. A cursed hotel that is a pleasure to enter... but one that you want to leave quickly.

Formula Legends is a game made with passion, there's no doubt about that. It has no official licenses, nor does it seek to rival the Codemasters series, but it makes up for this with humor, a love for the history of Formula 1, and gameplay that, although uneven, manages to hook you in. Its shortcomings are obvious: the absence of multiplayer, AI balance issues, and certain inconsistencies in the simulation mechanics. It doesn't quite gel as either an arcade game or a simulator. It's a strange but lovable mix that might work if you love this motor sport.

Lost Soul Aside delivers fast, fluid, and visually striking combat with diverse weapons, combos, and Arena powers. Each weapon has its own skill tree and customization options, but the story is cliché, levels are repetitive, platforming is imprecise, and replayability is minimal. Technical performance suffers occasional frame drops.
