While it is kept back by plain side activities and poor grinding mechanisms, Gotham Knights does manage to win over the player through its well told main story, the interesting gameplay variation between the four characters and its highly entertaining co-op mode.

Dakar Desert Rally strives for something more but that is not enough. The lack of routes with interesting design and variety make it a boring racer, while this indecision about whether it wants to be serious or not, is an issue that in the future Saber Interactive should see through a different perspective.

After many years of cooking and boiling at Platinum’s cauldron, Bayonetta makes her return to Nintendo’s most recent console. And that’s probably not a great choice, as the visuals are struggling with Switch’s outdated hardware. Still, the magic and charm of the series are here, better than ever, while taking the players on a trip across time in the series’ multiverse and preparing them for an eventual end and a new future for Bayonetta…or not.

Asterigos: Curse of the Stars offers a lengthy adventure with a well-thought and diverse combat system that sits somewhere between the high challenge of soulsborne and the ease of a hack ‘n slash. It’s only marred down by some bad design decisions (like the absence of fast travel until halfway through), which could be avoided if -maybe- some more testing was done.

The Last Oricru, to its credit, doesn't want to sow discord in the gaming family. It stands under the acrobat's rope, confused, with a look full of wonder. Equally bewildered were we who watched its endeavor, hoping at the end that the farce taking place would one day end and the true character of the title would emerge, saving all as a true hero.

The main issue of A Plague Tale: Requiem is the absence of any real improvement to its already simplistic gameplay. Thankfully, its amazing set pieces, great visuals and -especially- its intense story of Amicia’s and Hugo’s survival make up for these gameplay shortcomings.

With a great story and an engaging cast of characters, it feels a bit frustrating that the game falls so short on so many other elements like its gameplay, animation, controls, voice acting, pacing etc.

Nathan, Sam, Chloe, Nadine and a wider cast of memorable characters are ready to show PC gamers why the Uncharted series on the PlayStation family of consoles is a benchmark on the genre, and the industry in general. Beautifully woven narratives merge together with action-packed moments, good level design and brilliant visuals that can keep PC players going, and wondering why a potential PC The Nathan Drake collection is still out of the picture.

An almost perfect port of an incredible game with impressive technical aspects.

The DioField Chronicle is a game that, despite its low budget, manages to deliver a good story with a great cast of main characters and a satisfying combat system. However, those looking for something more in terms of strategy, will not be satisfied.

FIFA 23 keeps the high standards of the series in content, modes and visual display, closing one chapter and opening another for EA. However, it does not reinvent the wheel, it does not pioneer, it does not take risks, it does not bring something new or fresh. FIFA 23 simply executes, and scores in a match that will probably be quickly forgotten.

So, the aftertaste of the dish that Reply Games serves us is somewhat bitter. It's based on a classic recipe, but falters and fails both in its execution and in its inspiration to add extra ingredients.

Brok the InvestiGator is a mosaic of many things that we never thought will fit into an adventure game. Although most of them remain at basic level, they still sum up for an enjoyable ensemble.

It might not be one of the best of the genre, but it's certainly worthy in all its aspects and something that's definitely worth playing today. And most of all, it goes to show that the Terrible Toybox team knows and understands the genre like few do today.

Jack Move is almost a curiosity. A JPRG that is barely reaching the 8-hour mark, but at the same time it’s built exactly for that short length. A pocket sized JRPG then for the fans of the genre which may want a short break from the 20, 30, 80 hours epic journeys.

If NBA 2K23 was a today's player, it would probably be Doncic - we can either focus on his magical stepback threepointers, or on him being a "black hole" on defense.

My friend Peppa Pig is an excellent chance for the very young kids to enjoy the world of their favorite show, but after the initial excitement, the troubled, lazy and absurd design leads to a repeatable and a little annoying game, even for that age.

The realism of the battlefields, uniforms and guns is at the heart and core of the game. The combat is brutal and unrelenting for anyone looking to dive into the historical battlefields of Isonzo. Players will have to deal with constant deaths while engaging with this historically accurate, tactical FPS delivered by BlackMill Games.

Soul Hackers 2 can offer a good experience to those who want to follow an interesting story that deviates from the teenage-school life style. But it is advised to arm yourself with patience, because the dungeons of the main characters are quite tiring due to their identical level design.

An ambitious attempt -from an experienced studio- on a "soulsborne" game, which even though doesn't do anything particularly wrong, it fails to stand out from the rest of the pack and leave its own mark.

Multiple puzzle solutions, surprisingly interesting mini games and pure "heart" oozing behind the design of the game, Whateverland is a game worth playing as it manages to soar above its pacing and budgetary issues.

There is no doubt that Splatoon 3 sets out on a path that has already been paved by its predecessors, leading straight to success. The game manages to provide the same sense of colorful action and enjoyment in a more refined way compared to the previous titles, though it lacks the spirit and the features that would name it as a true sequel. Until all the new features that have been promised by Nintendo become available, Splatoon 3 will remain a game that we enjoy, yet we do not truly need.

The organizing as well as the development of a competitive F1 team that houses a large number of people has been rendered almost flawlessly. But technical problems during a race and lots of bugs pulled the brake on our hopes for something even better.

The visual upgrades give a fresh look to the game, however the same cannot be said for the gameplay that comes straight from 1999. PAC-MAN World Re-PAC gives the opportunity to those who loved the original game to see it with a fresh eye, while at the same time fans of old school 3D platformers that missed it back in 1999, have now the chance to try it out.

Rollerdrome's blend of roller skating gameplay and shooting is as unique as expertly created. Thanks to a simple and effective control scheme you would feel as if you are in a cinematic blend between Matrix and Rollerball.

Hard West 2 is a sequel we didn’t know we wanted. It’s XCOM-esque gameplay is enriched with the especially fresh mechanic of bravado, which leads to a completely unique approach at the shootouts. That’s no small feat for a subgenre where its rules of engagement are deeply embedded to the past.

Almost 10 years after its initial release The Last of Us remains a masterpiece, a game so important and unique that has no match. And it got even better with its new "coat of paint".

The hours it offers are few, but they can hold some interest initially, which in turn quickly fades. On the other hand, if you're looking for a light “timekiller” for your Switch on your vacation this summer, Treehouse Riddle might just be what you need.
