Aesthetically captivating, The Residence fails to deliver a convincing gameplay experience. In the end, the three chapters of Secret of the Maw are not up to the original game.

Desert Kingdoms is full of good ideas, but it lacks depth. Especially when you know that modders have already done a very good job on some cultures in the pack. And for free.

From Dusk Till Casa Bonita gives players the chance to spend a couple more hours with the kids from South Park. As always, the dialogue is funny and the story has a few WTF moments. Our only complaint is that the plot of this new quest could have been a bit more epic.

Ghostbusters VR is a short and very poor VR experience.

Fallout Shelter is a fantastic game adapted form the famous RPG franchise. Beware: It's very addictive.

Punch Line is a quite good visual novel with an interesting story and a lot of fan service.

In Death is a VR roguelite game where you explore randomly generated level and shoot at your enemies with a bow or a crossbow. The feeling is great with 2 PS Move, and also easy to play with a pad. A great game to discover, with a great universe, but no narration.

Kingdom Two Crowns is a little jewel. A pleasure in terms of exploration, survival and management that can be fully played in cooperation. The game has a splendid artistic direction and an extraordinary sound atmosphere. Almost dreamlike. Too bad the game looks more like a New Lands DLC than a real new episode.

This DLC comes at the right time for Two Point Hospital, if you've already played it in all directions and if you have three stars on all your hospitals. You must be aware that it is primarily for those who already likes the title of Two Point Studios. Those will not discover major novelties, but a graphic adaptation that sticks to the winter season with the Bigfoot and thirty specific diseases with their new treatments. The three new hospitals to manage (it's a little light) require an adaptation that is not so different from the basic principles. The developers could have been more daring to change the gamers habits a little bit more. In return, we always find the good taste of English humor. "Bigfoot" will not have enough content to keep us going all winter long. We can already count on the next DLC of spring or summer to take us to the beach.

With this new Switch port, The Office Quest might find a new audience: with this very fun parody of a splenetic and standardised office space, 11 Sheep's point'n click delivers a universal message. Fun and caustic all the way, The Office Quest still suffers from a strong classicism that will make it a short trip for the genre veterans.

If Spike Volleyball is not a very realistic simulation of volleyball, we cannot say that the bet is completely missed. A game that could please the true fans of this sport.

Thanks to the good fairies who leaned over Revolve8's cradle, this offbeat melange of cards and real-time-strategy inherited a literally detonant character : concise, yet complex, though slightly lacking content for now to unleash its full potential.

Song of Memories is a good visual novel with convincing graphics, and a surprising story full of love during the apocalypse.

Death Mark is a quite frightening Visual Novel, but it's very linear and you need to download chapter 6 as DLC on PS VITA.

Despite its title, Danganronpa Trilogy is nothing but a shiny new PlayStation 4 disc case including both Danganronpa 1 & 2 Reload and Danganronpa V3 : Killing Harmony. So there is nothing more to expect from it than three very good twisted visual novels reunited at last. SO much for the bonuses though.

KOTODAMA is a pretty descent visual novel, with average puzzle sections.

Redeemer Enhanced Edition doesn't add much to the formula but it's still a pleasant way to change your mind with some funny violence. And a friend with you on the couch.

Inspired by venerable recipes, Sweet Witches taste good, but such charming flavours lack some depth to enchant arcade lovers long enough.

This adventure card game was designed with the love of Tolkien's licence. It is not flouted, but to fully appreciate it, you must still adhere to his world. Otherwise, we end up with a card game with poor content. We'll have to wait for for future additions. There is already an additional campaign, but it's not provided for free... Without this condition, we end up with a good card game, but no added value that makes it stand out from the competitors, especially free in a large number of cases.

39 Days to Mars succeeds as a one-hour coop game whereas the solo experience is quite frustrating, due to the way the puzzles were conceived. The art direction is a treat though and both characters are true witty British clichés.

Even though it sweats classicism through all its pores, Bloo Kid 2 offers a decent challenge for any platformer fan out there. With 60 levels filled with things to collect, there certainly is a little bit more than meets the eye.

The less you see, the more you fear, thus beyond such minimalist an appearance, this intricately staged journey reveals a darker and crueler plot than expected.

A straight, if not rushed port of the Wii U version, that was already much less interesting than the 3D(S) episode in terms of content and gameplay. Thus Family Tennis SP doesn't have anything really special to offer, except its friendly style and somehow unusual "super" shots.

LASTFIGHT is still a good brawler on Nintendo Switch, even if it still lacks an online mode.

Hot Garbage is a pretty decent DLC to JTTSP, with the same atmosphere, but the progression is quite linear.

One year after its mobile release, Reed 2 lands on consoles, and ports its fifty tiny levels of simple yet demanding platformer mechanics to new players. With its charming ambience and beautiful pixel art style, the game suffers from tiny imprecisions, but will still give a nice appetizer to never-asking fans of the genre, despite its brevity.

And I feel like that’s the point of Main Assembly: if you think it’s possible, it probably is. Through experimentation and iteration (and a little patience), you can solve any problem the game throws at you. Much like its Early Access release, Main Assembly will learn from its mistakes and probably capture the hearts and minds of a fair few players along the way.

The premise of Linn: Path of Orchards is simple: bounce across a series of moving platforms in order to reach the exit. Entirely playable on the Switch touchscreen, the gameplay lacks of precision sometimes and the overall experience seems a bit short as we can rush through the game in just a couple of hours. However, the optional objectives are quite challenging.

Alt254 is a nice minimalist adventure, which lets players freely explore a pixelated world, borrowing simple mechanics from masters of the genre. Despite a difficult beginning, the game truly gives the feeling of exploration, and manages to tell a mysterious story through its graphical limitation, thanks to a well designed open world and clever puzzles.

Golf Zero is a nice mix between hardcore platformer and golf, sprinkled with a humorous touch all along its 80 levels. Still kind of short, the game manages to constantly deliver new challenges and reasons to laugh, die, and try again.

Bluecoats: North & South tries really hard to resurrect one of the best games of the 80s'. But poor execution and failed attempts to make it modern cut it from nostalgic players, and those who might be looking for a fun mix of strategy and action in the Bluecoats universe.

Some puzzles prove trickier to solve than desired, if not intended, but Six Dots unveil a humble purpose through a dual approach in black and white - what is told, shown or not, while cleverly mixing the narrative with items combinations.

Minit Fun Racer is a clever mix of an arcade racing game with some roguelite elements. Despite its shortness, the game still offers a few hours of fun, and should not be overlooked by those looking for something fresh and different.

Many flaws of toR Studio's work can be seen as an ironic tribute to the Soviet Union's old-time style, so the deliberately assumed repetitiveness of the concept - brutal and efficient - may oddly help Boris the Rocket to reach the right target.

Once again, Frontier manages to amaze us with its zoo management game. This pack on Africa is excellent and it is difficult to miss.

Witchcrafty is one of the very last games of the PS Vita. The game is shipped unfinished, with tons of collisions, IA and damage bugs which change at every run. To enjoy this visually charming sorcery adventure, you will have to cope with the dark forces of randomness working against you.

Following Four Last Things, Joe Richardson still used collage as a full creative process to compose visual sceneries from Renaissance paintings - an amazingly coherent blending of subtly animated visual elements - and produce absurd situations out of them. Hence The Procession to Calvary proves a radical work of arts, considering the extremely caustic, if not harshly crude humour, and the choice to cut literally the story short by characters' decapitations, with different endings as a result. Thus it depends on the player, often implicated through the fourth wall's breaks, to appreciate this decidedly subversive, personal production.

Back 4 Blood is unquestionably a fun multiplayer zombie killfest but its card system is a bit light on the novelty side of things, and we can't help feeling that the game is still a bit of a Left 4 Dead 3.

Le Marsupilami et Le Secret du Sarcophage feels like a child-oriented Donkey Kong Country-like. Way more accessible and easier than the original formula, it will give to the youngest players a glimpse of what is to come, with its many secrets and evolutive yet conformist level design.

MXGP 2021 still falls short of expectations. There is not much new content, and the game comes out in the end of the year, after the championship is done. Worse, the game's missing two tracks from this year's championship and when you enter the career, you take the slot of Jeffrey Herlings (MXGP 2021 champion) who is then absent from the game. Sad, specially as the riding feeling isn't bad.

MotoGP 22 is a good game, but it lacks new stuff, and the visuals are starting to feel quite old. The only highlight is the Nine mode that lets you play the 09 season in a narrative way, kind of like an interactive Netflix series.

The Nonary Games is a compilation featuring two magnificent games: 999 and Virtue's Last Reward, the latter being a true sci-fi visual novel masterpiece. Perfect writing, seductive design, convincing escape room, tough choices, insane twists and an end that ends up killing you. I had never yet wedged the maximum note of 10 for more than 6 years that I write tests here. It's now done, with games that you must do so as not to have missed your life as a gamer, as long as you have the prerequisites!

Mount and Blade 2 : Bannerlord is an ambitious game ready to make players lose sleep for months, although not everything is perfect. To give it a chance is to enjoy a deep and intelligent RPG.

Scrap Riders attempts a surprising mix of point & click and beat'em all and it works. The puzzles are rather pleasant and the action phases are mastered and very dynamic. The problem is that the game is also extremely talkative, doesn't tell much and makes heavy and/or embarrassing jokes (you either like it or you don't), when it doesn't stick references under our noses as if we weren't able to notice them. As a bonus, the pixel art often hinders readability in exploration and combat. As a result, the experience is clearly not as exciting as hoped and the good ideas are stifled by a general lack of finesse.

Without being up to Phasmophobia, Remnant Records remains a good horror game in the sauce of the paranormal investigator. If you really want to be scared, we advise you to try to play solo. All the beauty of the oppressive atmosphere stands out when you are alone within the walls of these haunted places. In multiplayer, we tend to be more casual, especially since it makes minds quite easy to see coming. But the real problem is that in general, we quickly go around the proposed experience.

Valorant on consoles is a true success. Console gamers finally have the chance to play a very competitive, precise and demanding game, far from what we are used to find on these platforms. With its mix of Counter-Strike and Overwatch 2, Valorant is an atypical game that requires to be tamed but that quickly becomes addictive and quite incredibly fun.
