    Blossom Tales achieves with flying colors a synthesis of what used to make a 2D Zelda a great game, while adding enough ideas to satisfy the old-school fanatics. Thanks to a charming art direction, Castle Pixel's second game will please most of nostalgic gamers. But such reverence to the original Zelda series will not come along with many surprises, even with such a short length.

    This may very well be the best brutal action game for slicing, ninjas, cyborg and WTF lovers.

    A good pinball pack but not the best, well helped by the score from John Williams and of course the Star Wars atmosphere.

    There are not many superlatives that does not stick to Danganronpa V3 : Killing Harmony. This third installment in the series is more extreme, more meta, more amazing in its storyline, even if the core gameplay suffers from reals changes to surprise the old students. Unless the visual novel genre or its Japanese style makes you want to run away, Danganronpa V3 : Killing Harmony is worth the school trip.

    Particularly beautiful for an iOS game, both on the iPad and iPhone, Jazz also enjoys a small price but great gameplay that make it hard to overlook. Its atmosphere and identity are strong, the music is fantastic, and even though its genre is overcrowded, it's really a title not to miss.

    REANIMAL follows directly in the footsteps of the studio's previous titles. Far from trying to reinvent the wheel, Tarsier simply does what it does best: immersing us in a dark and unsettling experience, driven by an uncompromising minimalism. Of course, this doesn't prevent the creators of Little Nightmares from refining their formula, with welcome additions and adjustments here and there. But beware of the feeling of déjà vu that is slowly but surely starting to creep in…

    On PC, Octopath Traveler is still this charming and gorgeous retro-RPG that offers a well-built but classic adventure to fans of the genre.

    A port that is almost identical to the home versions. Pretty, comprehensive, its only real shortcoming is some really long loading times.

    Far from a simple 3D "remodelization" for a more powerful, yet still portable home system, Pokémon: Let's Go not only refreshes the series' very first adventure, but also reflects the long journey since then, by wisely integrating evolutions such as Pokemon Go's capture system or partners in order to improve the modernity, accessibility and conviviality of the formula. A fantastic way to (re)start Pokémon, and a glorious conclusion for Junichi Masuda as director.

    Technically outdated on a aging Wii console, The Last Story ends up being quite linear... and too short. Online games and the New Game + feature won't really make up for it, despite the artificial extension of its life span. Hopefully, the voice acting is good, and combat is quite satisfying. And there's always this Sakaguchi's touch... which is always nice to have... The last game of the genre on the Wii?

    Diablo 2 is back in a Resurrected version and could appeal to purists as well as young people eager for challenges: The plastic has been completely revised, everything has been modeled again, and is now very flattering for the retina. The atmosphere of the game is as crazy as ever even though the storytelling has gotten a little old. The same can be said with the gameplay, which has hardly changed an iota: it's still just as nervous, addicting, devilishly catchy, but at the cost of sometimes outdated ergonomics. Nevertheless, we do not shy away from our pleasure of replaying this legend in conditions much more in line with what is being done in 2021.

    BOXBOX! is not only a tribute to puzzle games of the past, its minimalist design unfolding into more elaborated forms thanks to a clever incubation at HAL Laboratory.

    To sum-up LEGO City Undercover to a simple GTA with bricks would be a shame. Full of satire fore previous Telltale LEGO games and rich without any franchise to support it, City Undercover is able to charm with extensive content, no violence, and several layers of subtext for all to enjoy. It's a trans-generational game, and a good one at that.

    This new version of Dragon's Crown is a superb way to discover another Vanillaware gem, a great fantasy beat them all with some great arts - to enjoy in 4K if you own a PS4 Pro - and with up to 4 players. There are not many new things compared to the PS3 and PS Vita versions, but newcomers should really go for it.

    Luftrausers is a nervous and exciting arcade game, and at 9$ it's a really good deal.

    A very tense episode that messes with our mind as we talk more with people and groups, and brilliantly introduces someone who's probably going to be a great archvillain for this season.

    This might be the best of Mario Party, completely open online, yet Superstars also highlight the formula's inherent flaws due to a lack of boards, some lingering random elements despite the additional parameters, and the absence of creativity, if not ambition overall.

    Too bad. This 2013 edition does indeed solve one of the two main issues of the series by giving the players the possibility of choosing what lands to tap in critical situations, but the 10 decks are considerably less interesting to play than the ones of the 2012 edition, and it's still impossible to simply craft your own decks with the provided cards. Those two shortcomings would be easy to solve, but it seems the developers don't want to, either by stupidity or laziness.

    Life is Strange keeps on being charming. Relationships and secrets are well explored, choices count really much, and the unexpected outcome is so stunning that it will make the wait for the next episode quite unbearable.

    InFamous: Second Son is the most beautiful and impressive game on PS4, and it's also a very nice open world game. The revolution is more on the visuals than in the gameplay, as it is quite classical, but this is still the next-gen game PS4 owners were waiting for.

    Guitar Hero Live offers great innovations compared to its best enemy Rock Band 4, and this is great, but the microtransactions policy that won't let you permanently buy any song is really frustrating, spoiling the rest of the experience.

    It's impossible not to be charmed by such a little gem. Everbody's Tennis Portable is easily the best portable tennis game out there, striking the perfect balance between accessibility and realism. The European version also gained a significant number of improvements over the Japanese one. It's a must have for all tennis fans.

    Friends, pizzas, Heave Ho and I are the assurance of an evening of great quality. Be careful, however, in addition to tension in your fingers, your ribs, your ears, your voice, could suffer the crazy control of these heads to arms, between laughter and hilarious confusion, for the final, also a moral: only we go more quickly, to many we go further (and died of laughter).

    Under its goofy premise, Terry Cavanagh's new production is a very well designed title. Really strategic and offering a huge display of combinations, Dicey Dungeons can also be a little frustrating as we can win or lose on a roll of a dice.

    For a first of its kind, Granblue Fantasy Relink is a success. It throws itself wholeheartedly into the grand spectacle of pure action, showing extreme generosity. With a roster of some twenty unique characters, for as many different gameplays, Relink can boast of breaking the routine, or almost. Inherited from Gacha, it uses a progression system for its heroes that could put some people off. But it's also this recipe that makes the endgame, based on a system of quests to be completed alone or in cooperation, so addictive. If you're a customer, over a hundred hours of gameplay await you; if not, you'll have to make do with the main story, punctuated by memorable sequences and battles. The story, however, is hardly surprising, with dispensable side quests. Granblue Fantasy Relink has a bit of an "ass between two chairs", since it certainly won't appeal to everyone, but it's nonetheless a good action-RPG that tries to blend its heritage with a slightly more modern and current recipe. It paves the way for a franchise that could well surprise us even more in a few years' time.

    The Writer follows in the footsteps of The Signal. In terms of gameplay, thanks especially to a better, more daring level design, it will serve fans with some nice sequences. And story-wise, well, it wouldn't be a compelling thriller setting if all questions were answered, but it still delivers a fulfilling end to this first season, while leaving a door open for a second one. But if we are to dive in it one day, it will need to rise up to an entirely new level in terms of gameplay, this time.

    Scarlet Nexus is a charming new IP from Bandai Namco. It looks fine, has a solid background and some good gameplay mechanics. If you are looking for a good anime style action-RPG, it's definitely worth your time.
