Bigger and Better. Infamous 2 has a solid gameplay and a complex main adventure. Finally Sucker Punch found an interesting formula for its new franchise.

Net of some rough edges in terms of gameplay, the absence of co-op and a sometimes repetitive campaign, Teardown is surprising. Every single scenario is like a huge playground where the user is free to do whatever he likes, and not only in the Sandbox mode but also to finish the story missions. If we then consider that the production is available from day one in the PlayStation Plus Extra/Premium subscription (and is compatible with streaming in the PS5 cloud) we can only advise you to try to demolish some buildings made of voxels at least once.

Colorful, lively, fun: KarmaZoo proved to be a pleasant surprise which, although not rich in content, will make your gaming sessions pleasant and relaxing. The ambitions of the project, although limited, find full fulfillment in a simple but functional gameplay, and this is also why we hope to see an expansion of the experience with future updates.

Monaco: What's Yours Is Mine is one of the most enjoyable and clever cooperatives experiences in the indie scene and beyond.

Amnesia Collection is a must-have "trilogy" for those players who crave to indulge in the thrills of interactive horror.

FIFA greets its fans with an ambitious and rich chapter like never before, which manages to compensate for some historical mistakes with a convincing mix between a football with arcade nuances and simulation realism. Strengthened by an impressive and extremely varied content offer, we are sure that the community will be able to appreciate the many facets of this last episode, before the historic EA franchise changes its shirt becoming EA Sports FC. A formula that allows the production to bring home the result, for a farewell rich in content and effective on a playful level.

Muramasa symbolize the rebirth of a genre, and defends the bideimensional culture with an intriguing gameplay.

By putting away the lessons of the creepy second chapter, Tropico returns to its origin, and entertain the player with deep strategy and a hilarious social parody.

SHENZHEN I/O is both a game and a learning tool. Following the path of an educational game like SpaceChem, is offered for free to schools that request it. It is, however, a complex product, difficult to understand and play, with a very steep difficulty curve.

Angry Birds, also in the Minis version, is a great puzzle game. Unfortunately some problems with the graphics engine, and its high price compared to the version for iPhone, make the best edition for Apple platforms. However, the title product by Chillingo is back again with a good and enjoyable porting.

Net of not so exciting content, at least as far as the main missions are concerned.

The novelties of the annual edition, as expected, are not substantial, yet they contribute to the growth and improvement of a complete and extremely dedicated formula not only to realism and simulation, but also to involvement.

Quotation forthcoming.

Anna Extended Edition improves the basic title from every point of view. The game is one of the best Horror Adventure available on the market.

For the time being, however, it can dominate unchallenged, as there are no rivals on the horizon.

Marvel Fighting Collection is the package that all fans of the saga have been waiting for for many years. Each chapter of the series is re-proposed with a modern netcode, interesting interventions in the quality of life field and a Museum mode full of surprises and goodies. However, the cumbersome presence of Marvel vs Capcom 2 risks overshadowing almost all of the other products in the collection, characterized by a certain physiological redundancy but capable of effectively representing the evolution of one of the most iconic franchises in the history of video games. Too bad for the absence of crossplay and combo challenges for the various characters.

In evaluating Kirby and the Lost Land, it's important to pinpoint the kind of audience that HAL Laboratory's latest effort might target. The most hardcore users, those who, to be clear, strip every corner of the works of the Big N from A to Z, risk finding themselves in the presence of an adventure that is decidedly less challenging than expected: the pace of the new Kirby is a bit mechanical, and its relaxing linearity could even almost bore you - also because we are not at all in front of the Mario Odyssey emulator that many already anticipated. On the contrary, it will be difficult at the same time to hold back the sincere enthusiasm of a group of less experienced and demanding players, who will have the opportunity to experience a memorable journey in the company of an adult, discovering all the magic of a great Nintendo branded production.

The new strategic game made by Positech Games has a delicious art design and perfectly applies human laws and behaviours to the animal kingdom.

FIA World Rally Championship is a true rally simulation. Despite the technical issues, WRC gives good driving sensations and a perfect feeling of the terrain. With the official license Milestone will have a lot of possibilities for the next chapter.

The portable edition of Donkey Kong Country Returns is not perfect; it will not convince those who have already completed the home edition but it is very interesting for everyone else.

The king is finally back, though with different white hair under the crown.

Alaloth Champions of the Four Kingdoms is a huge and incredibly detailed world. Sure, you have to turn a blind eye to a technical sector that is not in line with modern standards and some imperfections on the gameplay front, but once you overcome this obstacle you find yourself in front of an old school game that, just like the RPGs of the past, succeeds in capturing the player in a loop of exploration and combat, so much so as to push him to avoid the final battle to spend more time around Plamen.

Quotation forthcoming.

The Survivalists proves to be a product of excellent quality, capable of combining depth and accessibility in a surprising way to create an experience that will certainly satisfy both purists of the genre (without ever boring them) and above all any newbies looking for an excuse to take your first steps in the world of survival.

Net of a less than impeccable artistic direction and a menu structure that absolutely needs to be reviewed, Honor of Kings is among the best MOBAs available on mobile devices today. With its impeccable control system and an incredible amount of content, it is certainly capable of making those who appreciate this type of experience happy.

Gunslinger is a dynamic first person shooter, characterized by a charming setting and an engaging narrative plot.

The formula of the DLC is perfect for its playful potential.

A good expansion with an interesting perspective on the previous campaign. There's a lot of new stuff in Awakening, enough to keep the gamers tied to the screen until the new epic ending. Replayability and character interaction are yet again excellent and return a good new and fresh experience, despite a bad tuning of the main quest that appears to be much easier than the main title even at the hardest difficulty setting.

Judging this first episode of The Wolf Among Us is very difficult. Faith does not strike powerfully as perhaps many expected, but installs solid foundation for what could become another masterpiece made ​​by Telltale.

Despite a not-so-good porting from the mobile version, it still has a great appeal for Final Fantasy fans out there, as the story is interesting and the action combat system compelling.

The operation, by itself, is mainly aimed at those who have never touched the original version for Advance.

Quotation forthcoming.

In Endling: Extinction Is Forever, the urgency of survival and the pangs of hunger skilfully alternate with more relaxed moments and touching discoveries, for an engaging and emotional adventure. The story told by Herobeat Studio is silent, accompanied only by the images evoked by the nose of a fox mother and by the excellent soundtrack. Perhaps also for this reason, the power of the message conveyed by the game is remarkable, able to reach its peak in an epilogue that you will hardly forget. Rather short, the title rests on consistent gameplay, supported by an articulated map and the ability to unlock new abilities for baby foxes. An environmental-based survival adventure that, despite the silence of its narrative, really has a lot to say and teach.

Diggs is an alternative and original product, with many courageous choices. Simply brilliant.

Advance Wars 1+2 Re-Boot Camp brings back to life a series that made the history of the genre and which the most loyal players missed. The title brings together the first two chapters of the saga, offering two pleasant campaigns and other modes that help increase the longevity of the experience, especially thanks to the online multiplayer component that opens the door to competitive challenge. Net of its light-hearted tones, we are talking about a package with layered gameplay and characterized by a large number of variables, with what it takes to satisfy even the most expert users. In short, the "old school" of turn-based strategy shines again on Nintendo Switch.

Insomniac Games delivers a traditional Metroidvania with a pleasant atmosphere and an intelligent use of backtracking. Song of the Deep is a solid adventure, with some memorable boss fights and a complex level design.

This is the Police 2 is a title deliberately difficult to approach, imperfect but fascinating.

The game features an excellent narrative with well-developed characters and psychological insight. The solid Liberation Linear Motion Battle System offers considerable satisfaction, and the enemy bestiary is well-researched and varied. Among the remaster's strengths are undoubtedly its technical performance, with 4K support and improved fluidity, as well as the inclusion of all previous DLC. However, some features are controversial to say the least, such as the ability to disable turn-based combat, as was the case in Baten Kaitos, and especially the application of censorship. These are choices intended for a wider audience, we understand, but purists may not be happy.

A simple Scrolling Shooter, taking us back directly to the 80's.

Addictive, fast-paced and embellished with an excellent level design. Velocity Ultra is a fun side-scrolling shooter, recommended for fans of the genre.

There are many improvements on the original formula, and that's really good news for all the Disney and Star Wars fans out there.

If you have a PlayStation VR at home and love fantasy, at the moment you can't find better.

Once you take-off, you won't stop playing for quite a bit.

No rivals on the ring, for the most technical fight simulation.

Tiny Trax is a successful arcade game that exploits the potential of the VR at its best but can still impress, at least during the first races.

SteamWorld Dig lays in the middle between Spelunky and Terraria: but it has a pace of its own, that results in a quite interesting adventure.

If you are fond of Telltale Games, have a minimum of familiarity with card games and want to spend an indefinite number of hours at the table with Brock Samson, Claptrap, and Sam Ash Williams, Poker Night 2 is probably the game for you.

Despite the twenty years on the monkey shoulders, the first Super Monkey Balls remain puzzle video games of superfine quality, albeit tough on the verge of sacrilegious imprecation. Retrogaming aside, Banana Mania is undoubtedly the best way to experience its spinning gameplay recipe, now also open to welcoming any newbies thanks to the introduction of some optional "assist controls". The picture closes with a wealth of content that not many other remasters can boast, although part of the secondary offer, in terms of accessibility, is essentially for a select few. Stuff to spin the ... balls.

Burly Man at Sea is a perfect adventure to spend a couple of hours in total relaxation, amazed by the crazy adventures of three sailors and discovering all the little details that the team hid in every corner of the game.

Owlboy is an interesting platformer. Focused on the cooperation between the members of our heroic team, it offers a substantial number of well designed environmental puzzles, and a rewarding progression.

Endless Ocean 2: Adventures in the deep is better than its predecessor in many ways. It has a lot of contents in various aspects, from the creatures to the side mission, but its biggest quality is the nature of the entertainment it delivers. It’s more an experience than just a game: some may like it, others no, but for those who are really looking for something different it’s a must have.

Horn is a complete and technically excellent action-adventure game. It will satisfy those looking for a "console style" title in portable devices.

Payday: The Heist is one of the biggest surprises of this hot autumn market, marked by triple-A titles of absolute value. If you have 2 or 3 friends to play with, the title Overkill is a highly recommended purchase. Our congratulations to the developers for the insight: we hope to continue to support their creature with new additional missions and already we dream a sequel with an advanced AI and techinal sector. A must for lovers of the co-op.

This first DLC for Diablo 3 solves many of the problems of the original release. But the new new act is too short and the new class isn't that inspired.

The formula is the same of past year, with all the "pros and cons" preserved.

The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile is a more of the same, but when the quality is so high why complain? A videogame to buy with your eyes closed if you love the genre, and gore.

Home is an unmissable journey into the deepest human fears, a crude painting of the most gloomy corners of the human psyche. An experience that can not be missed, especially at the price proposed.

The Mageseeker is a concentrate of speed and action, penalized only by a monotony of the stages and a scarce variety of contents offered in the exploration. Thankfully, the very deep and properly layered battle system manages to counter this issue. In the 15 hours needed to finish the adventure, The Mageseeker will certainly not encourage replayability or backtracking, but will be able to put your skills to the test even in secondary missions. In short, the sum of the parts makes this League of Legends spin-off worthy of being played even by those who are not a strict connoisseur of the Riot universe.

Quotation forthcoming.

Open Me! is the puzzle game that you do not expect. Backed by simple idea, offers a stimulating experience for everyone.

Thanks to masterfully written dialogues, the story and screenplay of Tyranny are intriguing and well-paced. We appreciated as well the freedom provided in the character development, as well as the innovations introduced in the combat and spells systems.

A nice collection for all Action lovers. Kratos still rocks, a few years after the original releases.

Natural Disaster is the third DLC of the acclaimed Cities Skylines: a precious add-on which increases the difficulty level of the product.

We believe that the time has finally come for the development study to shake up the brand and give fans of this simulation series the long awaited third chapter.

It's a good expansion: chasing the four villains is a fun packed experience, and the narrative side is really well crafted.

Broken Steel is a recommended DLC for Fallout 3, that brings some good patches to the original story, first of all the open-ended final. Other good news: new powerful equipment, new hours of play, and the possibility to level up again the character. All for 800 MP.

Too bad for a subdued conclusion, faint as the last spark of a firebrand.

Despite a technical sector that is not cutting edge and a gameplay structure that is at times repetitive, V Rising works and is the perfect mix between survival and action RPG. Whether you play alone or in the company of some friends, it's really fun to dedicate yourself to hunting powerful targets that make the protagonist stronger, as well as trying your hand at building a base, which step by step becomes bigger and fuller of comforts. In short, it is a product that all fans of the genre should give a chance.

A good example of the well-balanced encounter between causality and mechanics, procedurality and systemicity.

It should not be denied that the diptych can be a very good entry point for novices, a modern bridge that allows it to move from Pokémon GO to a "more videogame" experience without getting lost in the network of technicalities proposed by the recent RPG episodes.

Motorstorm is a game relatively limited, but capable of giving immense fun at an affordable price.

A new instant classic. Arkanoid with a modern physic engine that add cool ingredients to the game formula. The graphics are shiny and the concept is brilliant.

WWII is exactly what the Call of Duty series needed: Sledgehammer Games has made probably the best game in the series since Black Ops 2. It’s a solid and spectacular shooter, but it’s also a game characterized by a naif narration and a bad AI. Despite it all, WWII is a very satisfying episode, and a new beginning for the saga.

It should not be denied that the diptych can be a very good entry point for novices, a modern bridge that allows it to move from Pokémon GO to a "more videogame" experience without getting lost in the network of technicalities proposed by the recent RPG episodes.

Wargame: European Escalation is a good strategy game for all the modern warfare fans, with a dynamic and deep gameplay supported by a spectacular and realistic visual experience.

Whether or not you have completed the adventure starring Neku, approach the sequel without hesitation and let yourself be carried away by the Game of Demons.

If Super Mario Party chose to embark on the path of timid "next-gen" evolution, Mario Party Superstars takes the opposite, yet complementary, path of amarcord traditionalism. The result is a celebratory episode of exquisite workmanship, a reasoned selection of some of the most representative tables and minigames of what the franchise has been in its abundant twenty years of existence. Old, solid substance that is reborn with a completely new aspect, whose charm does not lie only in the aesthetics; among the details of a gameplay that is finally customizable and unprecedented opportunities for the multiplayer experience, Superstars is, even from a formal point of view, one of the most interesting and welcoming Mario Parties ever. A party of Mario who, remembering his own story, knows exactly how to be remembered.

The third chapter of this classical adventure delivers some thrilling puzzles and an intriguing story.

Reckless Racing maintains the core arcade approach to the racing games and shows gamers a really interesting and solid gameplay that boosts the title to the top of the genre.

Just Dance 2022 is a dance without a revolution, but what a dance, ladies and gentlemen. Strengthened by a sensational line-up that ranges from the old glories of the past to the new stars of the present (even virtual ones), the last chapter of the series focuses on the quality of the selected pieces and on choreographies of indisputable specific weight. The various levels of difficulty ensure an experience within everyone's reach.

The guys at Frictional Games tried something really hard, in telling a story that reflects good old science fiction. The result ultimately works: don't expect a "sci-fi Amnesia", no jump scares here, but a completely different experience.

Atomfall has style to spare. We are not faced with a simple "British" re-proposal of titles like Fallout and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.. On the contrary, the work by Rebellion has a soul all its own and a strong character, which could lay the foundations for an excellent IP to carry forward alongside Sniper Elite. The jewel in the crown of the game is the very well-crafted narrative section, with a story (and a lore) to reconstruct trying to unravel a tangle of leads, clues and whispers that come from everywhere. The gameplay has been designed to give the player the greatest possible freedom, putting aside the traditional progression systems in favor of a dynamic management of the skill trees and inventory. The only shame is for some uncertainty from a technical point of view, connected to the (controversial) choice of using a proprietary graphics engine that now needs to be modernized.

Fingle is a great game that shows how new genuine ideas can be fun and functional.

Sonic Racing CrossWorlds takes the series a significant step forward from the last installment, offering layered and fun gameplay, complemented by a portal system that adds freshness to every race. While it shines on the gameplay front, however, SEGA's offering stumbles with its lackluster extra modes and a technical package that isn't always up to current standards.

The latest Japan Studio work is a very special title that accompanies the player with a particular progression, at the cost of achieving moments of monotony. A title definitely recommended for those looking for a game outside the box.

Ace Attorney Investigations Collection allows us to relive two interesting spin-offs that, without distorting anything of the typical setting of the series, can provide healthy entertainment for several dozen hours, each thanks to intriguing stories, well-characterized characters, investigations and exciting verbal confrontations. The massive presence of dialogues risks weighing down the pace of progress in some moments but fans of the genre would do well to consider the idea of ​​​​taking on the prosecutor's shoes.

A fun and original game.

It could look like a "domestic life simulator" at first, but there's much more beneath the surface. It's a love and war story that happens in a small apartment, told in an unique way.

Untitled Goose Game does not deserve to be played because of its being a "game", but for the coherence of the authors in imagining, creating and pursuing an objective, which however simple and banal shows with strength a vision and a determined will.

Although is not a perfect title (the fighting system is not entirely convincing in terms of balance and rhythm), Paper Mario Color Splash remains a work of undoubted quality; delicious to see, listen to and explore.

Guitar Hero with a pop twist. Easy to play, suitable for party play.

Loot River is a complete, difficult and well packaged work. A unique mechanic that of the Tetris-style platforms, which lends itself well to the game world created by the guys of Straka Studio. Too bad for the mole represented by that problem with the hitboxes and animations of certain characters. Overall, however, the game is more than good, fun, challenging and will keep you hooked for a long time.

Dynasty Warriors: Origins is a less revolutionary title than expected, as most of the ingenious grafts attempted by Omega Force actually come from its most successful licensed musou. That said, the Japanese developer should at least be given credit for having expertly mixed so many devilries without saturating the gameplay of the product. Compared to Dynasty Warriors 9, the brand new Dynasty Warriors: Origins represents a gigantic improvement, as well as a starting point for the main series of the franchise, which for too many years had unfortunately lost its way. Thanks to the possibility of facing the campaign from a completely new point of view, the title is suitable for both veterans and neophytes, who could take advantage of the notable gameplay and technical progress to get closer to the brand and let themselves be transported by the events of the Three Kingdoms.

Although it is not without some flaws typical of the kind of game, Berserk and the Band of the Hawk is an unmissable product for all gamers who grew up reading the immeasurable dark fantasy epic of Miura genius: the title manages to translate perfectly in pure action as appreciated in the pages eponymous manga.

Too bad that the conversion for Switch brings some problems, as a scheme of commands not always intuitive and annoying crashes that could damage the enjoyment of the experience.

At times, Infamous Second Son delivers great fun with its combat mechanics, yet a repetitive formula, combined with some hiccups and balancing issues, ultimately can't be ignored. It's an entertaining and visually beautiful piece of software, but it could've been much more.

Highly recommended, but only if you feel in harmony with the Philosopher's philosophy.

Gears Of War 4 is an honest act of love for the saga, and for the countless fans who - over ten years - never stopped hoping for a glorious return to the heyday of the brand.
