    Although Vancouver 2010 doesn’t excel in any real way, it proves to be a good game, superior to any other Olympic simulation out there. In other words, if you’re looking for the ultimate Olympic experience, look no further.

    Torment: Tides of Numenera is a game that tries to deliver a supreme classical narrative experience and, in doing so, suffers from elitism and some sort of misuse of the medium. It’s an interesting experience, for a very few.

    Forza Horizon 2 first DLC tries to be something different but is too similar to the original game. Not bad at all, but you could expect a more interesting offer at the price of €19,99. Oh, and it's tropically raining now.

    Lovecraft’s Untold Stories is a competent, yet a bit repetitive, twin stick shooter with a good atmosphere, some depth and a very interesting pixel art take on the genre. Fans of the genre and the theme should take an interest here.

    God Eater 3 is a good action-rpg focused on hunting, equipment and moveset management. It is an adrenaline rush, both in Co-op and in solo missions. On Switch, it certainly wins thanks to portability and Local Multiplayer. Because of repetitiveness, graphic limits and lack of interactive scenarios, and despite a good plot, it fails to deliver an unforgettable product.

    Sea of Thieves is actually the best pirate game available. Unfortunately, although the stunning experience offered by the title, there is a too small amount of content in it. The missions are funny at the beginning, but become boring after a short time. The beautiful environments and the pleasure of cooperation alone can't make the title survive forever. We need more content.

    Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken is a really interesting and funny platformer available for PS Vita, with amazing graphics and superb soundtrack. Control schema is a bit clumsy and integration with Vita’s hardware could have been better, but it’s definitely worth a try.

    Republique Remastered is a short but well crafted stealth experience, originally developed for iOS and now available for PC and Mac. A good story and a polished gameplay are definitely on the plus side, but this remastered edition fails in offering something new, and is suggested only to those at their first encounter with the game.

    Homefront is a good game, capable of entertaining the fans of the FPS genre only for a short period of time in singleplayer.

    Although the game has its faults, it's hard to ignore that it includes two, massive adventures that will keep any fan of the genre busy for at least 60-70 hours. Level 5 could have done something more gameplay-wise, but for now we can consider ourselves quite satisfied.

    Again, a Remastered version comes for the Nintendo Switch, this time bringing the Miyazaki’s masterpiece on a new console. The Switch is powerful enough to render every texture in HD but the framerate is not so stable as the last Remastered on PlayStation 4. Maybe not the best version, but the only one that allows to bring Dark Souls with you outside.

    The Stillness of the Wind is a very interesting chance to live the emotions of an old person. The devs have used all the right techniques to show and let play these feelings. Is not for everyone, but the game has all the characteristics to explain what freedom in indie games development is.

    Stronghold Crusader 2 goes back to the roots of the series, taking us almost 15 years back in time. This can be good news for someone, but we expected something more and for the rebirth of the franchise we’ll have to wait for the next episode, hoping for a braver approach.

    While the execution is undoubtedly impressive, the idea behind it is not that strong: why should anyone prefer LittleBigPlanet PSP over the PS3 version, choosing the very same game with some unavoidable compromises regarding the editor? That's frankly hard to say, the real impasse here is mainly conceptual.

    Akaneiro: Demon Hunters is a nice attempt in the free-to-play genre, and is also a good action-RPG. The problem is that if you don’t want to pay a dime, it’s all about mindless grinding over and over again, and the AI assisted co-op it’s not well implemented.

    The Final Fantasy new brawler game hosts a reunion of many main characters of the major series. The combat system is quite complex and the 3 vs. 3 fights are always spectacular. Final Fantasy fans will be amazed by the great roster, the customization and the summoning of the Guardian Forces. Who is not much into the series, on the other hand, could be frustrated by the uncommon and slow paced mechanics.

    Hero Academy offers a new concept of multiplayer gaming on iOS devices: an asynchronous system using push notification, suitable for quick session you can resume whenever you want, even the following day.

    Call of Pripyat is an engaging episode of a franchise that is terribly missing a satisfying dialogue system. There are few innovations comparing this game to the previous episodes but the frantic pace and the intense ambiance make this new trip to Chernobyl a safe investment of money, capable of granting tens of hours of play. But you will have to be prepared to walk into the shoes of a Stalker.

    Quake Arena Arcade is probably one of the best console porting of the unforgettable id Software's Quake 3 Arena.

    After 10 years, The World Ends With You is still an original game. OK, gameplay wise we’re not getting the full experience on Switch due to the lack of a second screen, but nonetheless the option of playing in local multiplayer all by ourselves manages to recreate some of the original feelings. The HD graphics are spot on, but the overall experience isn’t as good as we remembered, and the price point seems a bit off given the age of the game.

    With Zombi, Ubisoft tried to get the best results with almost no efforts.

    Skelattack is a good title. It is not particularly long but the story still manages to be engaging, keeping the interest high from the beginning to the end.
