A videogame experience with very clear ideas.

The potential of the video camera, a central tool for solving puzzles, is partially thrown to the winds due to a puzzle structure that remains the same from beginning to end. What remains is still a game with a good atmosphere, which perfectly embodies - at least in the first part - the spirit of cinematographic films, also thanks to some clever and exquisite workmanship.

Batman Arkham City Lockdown is the dark side of Infinity Blade, and that's not cool as it could seem. It has an excellent presentation, thanks to the Unreal Engine, but that can't compensate for the lack of variety which the gameplay offers. We love Batman, but it deserves a bit more than this poor treatment, mainly because its price is quite high.

An interesting mix between tower defense and third person shooting, it's surely not flawless, but can still deliver some solid entertainment.

The Fidelio Incident is as ordinary in its structure as valuable in content.

Ultimately, our encounter with The Last Case of Benedict Fox gave us mixed feelings. On the one hand we find an interesting plot, embellished with some tasty twists and framed by an extremely fascinating setting. On the other side of the fence, however, we find an approximate technical realization and a general lack of refinement in the gameplay, defects that end up compromising the overall enjoyment of the work. The new Plot Twist project has been part of the Game Pass catalog since day one: for this reason we still feel like recommending it, at least to a certain extent, to fans of the genre who subscribe to the service. To all the others, however, despite the title being offered at a budget price, we suggest waiting for any patches that can at least solve the most obvious problems. In its properly finished form, The Last Case of Benedict Fox could in fact aspire to much higher qualitative peaks.

The mix with Monster Hunter mechanics works in the end, as the part MMO, part hunting-game combat system delivers some depth and interesting twists. Of course, is way better when enjoyed with coop.

A product dedicated to the most ardent fans of the saga, or those who still want to be surprised with the huge technical potential of the tablet on the market.

Man of Medan keeps himself afloat thanks to an atmosphere full of charm, to a sufficiently original multiplayer structure and to a valuable sense of investigative discovery that supports the limited exploration. However, the numerous possibilities of choice are not always adequately supported by an all too predictable script and by a recourse to a rather mannerist horror, which in the long run ends up reducing tension.

Solid debut for Skydance Interactive in the world of gaming and Virtual Reality.

Being with a friend to face daily and weekly assignments, trying to raise the difficulty by touching inhuman vertices of pain, falling and trying again, repeating with the daughters of Blazko the family mantra ("the only good Nazi is a dead Nazi"), it could be a great pastime for these hot summer months.

Enjoyable to play and absolutely beautiful to look at, Trek to Yomi is a perfect homage to a piece of Japanese film history and culture. Linked as much to the world of the living as to the land of the dead, the protagonist's journey does not offer particularly surprising narrative implications, but despite this it lets itself be followed and is the backdrop to a playful and audiovisual experience in the name of historical fidelity. Rich in breathtaking views and long shots capable of enhancing an exploratory component not free from imperfections and the beauty of very evocative scenarios, Leonard Menchiari's adventure has been able to intrigue us with his combat system which, while relying on choices that are not always in focus, made you feel like real samurai. Fans of Kurosawa's works, as well as those looking for a style full of style but with more staid rhythms, would do well to wear the kimono and leave with Hiroki.

Maybe we can expect wonders from the third season of Walking Dead. The first two episodes have great characters and a very impressive plot. 

This first chapter doesn't offer anything new or really interesting in terms of narrative or gameplay. It's basically Telltale on autopilot. Not bad, but not that good either.

EVE Valkyrie is one of the best titles for our Virtual Reality headsets, and a big step forward for spacefight sims.

Lack of variety and options is the most evident flaw of a game which has very little to offer. The gameplay formula is quite entertaining, but in the long run fun fades easily.

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.

A questionable operation.

An old fashion title: a simple RTS, with a humorous twist.

Another strike for ACE Team. This roguelike action games has a deep combat system and a very well designed structure. Community goals and an impressive amount of creatures to play are there to strengthen the replay value.

Given the rather high ticket price, it is natural to advise you to wait for a price drop before diving into the Hitman HD Enhanced Collection.

Disney Mirrorverse is, in many ways, a wasted opportunity. Such an original concept could have been the foundation for a more structured title from the gameplay point of view and perhaps addressed to a specific target.

Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization is an enormous title, especially when compared to his most recent predecessor. Unfortunately the game is once again devoid of a charismatic antagonist and a solid storyline.

The inspired settings and the tactical element at the base of the gunplay are certainly appreciable but fail to make Scars Above go beyond the boundaries of sufficiency. Many of the errors and lightness are due to the youth of the development studio, which was still able to define a credible and in-depth lore and a complete but not fully satisfactory plot. If you have an immoderate passion for space and science fiction cinema, you might consider the idea of ​​accompanying Kate on her journey but, if not, the reasons that should push you to try it are considerably reduced.

Absolver is an enjoyable, singular, technical and profound game.

God Eater 2: Rage Burst arrives belatedly in the west market. Despite the age, the title is still enjoyable and fun, thnaks to a huge offer in terms of missions and game modes.

Ride 2 is a step forward compared to its predecessor, if nothing else for the greatest number of game modes and models. The maturity of the brand, however, is still far away, and the guys at Milestone needs to work harder if they want to publish a new instalment of the series every year.

Tuque Games delivers a traditional Twin Stick Shooter: frantic and fun arcade action is what you can expect from Livelock.
