New year, same problems. Without deck customization, Magic: Duels of Planeswalker 2013 couldn't be a masterpiece, just a good game.

Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare is a solid experience with a standard approach to the genre. The main problem is that Infinity Ward hasn't found a way to make the game remarkable.

Liberation Maiden has a good quality/price ratio, although with some changes it could have been a much better experience. As it stands, however, it's just a good downloadable action game.

Quotation forthcoming.

More accessible than Monster Hunter, but also less enjoyable, Kiwami is the definitive edition of Toukiden. New content, new storyline: it worth the attention of the fans, despite a combat system that allow a little bit of button mashing.

The concept is interesting and the setting fascinating, but the game can't offer anything more than the beautiful Mark of the Ninja.

Considering the fast-paced action of the singleplayer campaign and its rich multiplayer, the only ones who might be disappointed of Zipper Interactive's work are those looking for a really hardcore strategic experience. Compared to older iterations of the franchise, Special Forces is in fact much more simple and accessible.

Fuse is a mid tier in the TPS chart. Insomniac has created a plain game with no outstanding qualities. The overall experience is still good enough and the multiplayer mode is the core element of this game.

A good looking quite-old-style RPG, with a solid story and some very nice gameplay mechanics... not perfect, but still enjoyable.

Quotation forthcoming.

Hardspace: Shipbreaker has a great gameplay and narrative depth. Despite the great variety available, it soon becomes repetitive, leaving the player less involved as at the beginning.

Kirby Star Allies is at its best when played with a couple of friends (or some kids) on the same couch: it’s like a chaotic, colorful and messy party game. If you’re planning on going solo, though, just be aware that it’s also super easy and reaches the end in a handful of hours.

Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne HD Remaster is still a great old-school JRPG today, despite feeling the weight of its years. This new edition manages to remove some dust and offers the chance, for younger players, to recover an iconic title from the past, but it is undeniable that the remastering work could have been done in a much better way.

Despite a fragmented, impactless storytelling, Moncage is a fascinating and clever puzzle-adventure with quite challenging perspective-based riddles.

Lamplight City is a successful point-and-click graphic adventure in terms of storytelling and with a convincing and pleasant retro – pixel art style. The almost total absence of enigmas, together with the lack of interactivity, prevent him, however, to aspire to the top of the genre.

New Hope has changed after the Apocalypse and the new generations are hungry for battles. The core of the fun is the same as always and Ubisoft should have dared a better plot and new mechanics.

Hitchhiker: A Mystery Game by Mad About Pandas it is a product as simple as it is mysterious. Do not be fooled by the cartoon aspect, the adventure you will be called to live is much deeper than it appears on the surface.

March to Glory is a competent napoleonic wargame, simple enough to be accessible yet interesting in the tactical gameplay. Serious issues on the UI and content side prevent it from being a real hit.

Yoshi's New Island is a good platform game which simply can't stand up the mighty awesomeness of the original Yoshi's Island. The game doesn't use any of the Nintendo 3DS' unique features and the level design is good but never great. But the game is still fun and lovely.

Going back to Paradise City is always fun, but this Burnout starts to show its age despite a very good (but expensive) transition on the Nintendo Switch.

It could have been a fantastic VR porting but this version of Borderlands 2 lacks any previously released DLCs and PlayStation Aim controller support. Too Bad.

Quotation forthcoming.

Fe is an emotional experience, a game made to open the eyes of players on the tragedy that is consuming in the hearth of the forest. You will not find deep gameplay or mechanics never seen before, but the stunning art direction could be enough to amaze you.

An interesting twist on the survival genre. A point and click adventure with a very original black and white style and a branching story telling that leads to a number of different endings.

Lost in Shadows is the classic game for passionate gamers. Like Ico and Shadow of the Colossus, this game isn't perfect, but the great visual style, the perfect atmosphere and the high quality of the main concept, are enough to turn a simply good title in a valuable piece for any collection.

Although gambling isn't as thrilling as it would be with real money on the table, Full House Poker proves to be a well crafted game that will surely keep poker fans busy for several hours.

Absolver has a very fresh concept that combines fighting game and GDR mechanics. The result is quite good: the combat system is one of the most customizable we've ever seen and the beautiful world of Adal is a pleasure for the eyes. Unfortunately the lack of a map and the devious level design dilute the experience and the main quest is only a pretext to introduce the player to the PVP.

A challenging and attractive narrative adventure with roguelite elements that deserves your attention despite its rough edges.
