    This is probably not the best videogame based on Adventure Time franchise, but it’s nevertheless a fun one, that (at least) try to bring some fresh ideas in the infinite runner genre.

    A simple and well crafted game that ask you just one simple thing: shoot stuff in space. And we are glad to do that.

    The definitive console edition of Diablo 3, with a wonderfully reimagined end game: you cannot miss it.

    This is a great third act for the new Lone Wolf's story, capable to continue an already compelling story, and arrange everything up for the big finale.

    A great PC version of one of the best PS Vita games. OlliOlli is a wonderful skateboarding game.

    Behind the cute graphics there's a very demanding, fun and challenging puzzle game. Do not underestimate it.
    • 68 Metascore

    A nice puzzle game, based on a simple but entertaining idea.

    Light has got a nice artistic direction, but that's it. Gameplay is erratic and badly conceived.

    Ground Pounders is a fun "light" strategy game that fails when it tries to innovate, but gives a globally nice experience.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    A few nice adjustments and some new content that will not make you scream for joy but are worth the admission price if you're a fan.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    AR-K has got some good and fun writing and a decent style, but the badly conceived puzzles drag it down.

    • 79 Critic Score
    Who wouldn't want to save space cows from evil insects? Celleste is a fun and easy to handle puzzle game.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A funny and bizarre endless runner (and endless shooter) that's got some deep meat under the attractively crazy look and feel.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    This is basically a touch version of the classic Subbuteo games, with the added value of fast and easy multiplayer challenges with social network friends.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    A simple, nice and fun platform game. It's a bit on the easy side, but that encourages exploration, at least.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    There are at least three flaws that are sinking Sacred 3. The solo Campaign is really too monotonous and repetitive, the loot is practically non-existent and space for customization make us regret any past action-RPG. If the game can avoid an even lower score, it's only thanks to the good the graphics and online co-op, that, while making it less boring, cannot revive the lackluster game formula.

    Nexon brings in Europe Lost Saga, a free-to-play online 3D brawler which is technically quite simple, but successfully combines modern MOBA accessibility with a great range of fighters, arenas and game modes.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Revolution 60 is a brave and ambitious cinematic adventure. It's probably not the best good looking game on App Store, but it is definitely worthy of your attention.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    When you can fill in your game mutant turtles and ninja stuff you can't possibly fail, and indeed The Game Maker made no mistake. Like Combo Crew TMNT is a fun and fast paced combat game, exactly what a Ninja Turtles game needs to be.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A simple and fun "motorcycle platform" game with decent graphics and functional controls.

    Ninja Up is a fun, fast paced and absolutely free vertical jumper from Gameloft.

    • 80 Critic Score
    Meditate is harder than you expect if you try to do that on a roof or a volcano, but if you are a Shaolin monk, well it will be just cool. The Balance of Shaolin is just that: a simple and challenging game with a Shaolin Monk. And a Volcano.

    Sonic Jump Fever puts the beloved hedgehog in a Doodle Jump kind of game, with a couple a new nice idea and a free to play model on top of it. Nothing new, but it works fine.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Another physics based puzzle game, but it's well thought out with nice objectives and lots of fun to be had.

    Orbitum is a simple, elegant and extremely addicting "one tap" puzzle game.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A very good looking and fun, if not very long, puzzle game.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A lot of new content for the fans, but we did not fine some adjustments we kind of expected. It's certainly not a "mandatory" buy.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A simple looking racing game that's extremely fun and rapidly becomes addicting.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    A mature adventure game that challenges you with hard choices and puts you in real life situations. The writing is not always at top level, but when it works it's great.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    An intelligent, fun and very deep sci-fi take on the tower defense genre.

    Under it's less than spectacular aesthetics, Growing Pains hides a very interesting and challenging experience.
    • 62 Metascore

    On paper it could a nice option for Magic: The Gathering fans, but the business model really drags it into the ground.

    Six years later, Wii Sports finally goes online. It hasn't got everything you would expect from a 2014 online experience, but it's the usual good game for every kind of audience.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Behind its beautiful aesthetic, there's a flawed roguelike action, unable to sustain the fun. And it's a shame, because, around the edges, you can feel there's something good. Like the evil that rests in the Earth's core, Abyss Odyssey is rotten from the inside, not the outside.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    Rogue Legacy is an addicting roguelike platform game hybrid. It works great on all PlayStation consoles and the Cross Buy system makes it a real bargain.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    A great game and a great production, probably a whole new standard for the genre on mobile devices. I would rather to see a more mature plot, but nevertheless Modern Combat 5 is loud and fun, and should be enough for fans.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Crown of the Sunken King is optional. It doesn't evolve Dark Souls 2, it doesn't add Trophies/Achievements, you can still enjoy Dark Souls 2 without Crown of the Sunken King. But in the DLC you'll find the best level design of the whole game.
    • 95 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Naughty Dog's masterpiece is a must have for every PS4-owner that missed the game one year ago. But if you already met Joel and Ellie on PS3, think twice.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Races against time, dramatic decisions, violence and torture. With Gods Will Be Watching you do not mess at all and the pixel art has never been so sinister and misleading.

    The new Abe is just like the old Abe: a painful hard game, set in a fascinating world. Be sure to know what you're gonna put yourself into...

    Amid the Ruins is not the best episode of the season, but it sets the table for the finale in an explosive way.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    A dumbed-down version of Duels of the Planeswalkers with less game modes than the previous entries. Yes, there is a full deck-building option now, yet it is marred by a clear shift towards microtransactions.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    One more piece in the One Piece puzzle. A good action-adventure game with simple mechanics inherited from its 3DS origins, which are enjoyable on home consoles too. Don’t expect a particularly deep or challenging gameplay, though.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Battle Princess of Arcadias is the triumph of grinding, and this might be annoying for some players. Anyway, the particular visual style, the growth of characters, the large number of classes and the continuous sense of challenge, framing a quality action-Jrpg.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    Atelier Rorona Plus is a great Japanese role-playing game with some elements which nicely enhance its structure.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Capcom loves Capcom and this is what you're gonna find out playing this strange and fascinating DLC. But if you plan to play it alone, think twice, as it could turn out to be a rather boring experience.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    An exceptional RPG which is not afraid to stand toe to toe with the great names of the past. It's hard to find flaws in it, with the exception of a slow start and the absence of an Italian translation.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Excluding the fighting, the absence of a map and a quest log and the double-edged sword of freedom of exploration, Quest for Infamy has everything it takes to make an adventurer happy.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    Compile Heart has developed a decent game, but few will notice: the cause is the licentious army, shown in every trailer or game's pictures. If we add to this the online slow in matchmaking and an AI deficit, the result is a title with spikes and dips worthy of a roller coaster. However, digging over the hundreds of thousands of breasts and buttocks, the game is there. It's up to you to decide how much and how this erotic outline can slow you down, or push to eventually purchase.
    • 72 Metascore

    Armillo is a colorful and funny game, with a brilliant level design and good ideas. It's a pity that the graphics engine just can't move at the same pace as the rest of the game.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 59 Critic Score
    Godfire: Rise of Prometheus is not the bringer of the light that could have been, and this is due to its imprecise and rough combat system. It's stunning to watch tough, but this is not enough to recommend it.
    • 76 Metascore

    Three great PS2 platform/shooters now available in cross-buy on PS Vita and PS3, although the portable conversion is far from being perfect.

    The Wolf Among Us Episode Five: Cry Wolf is the amazing ending of the Telltale Games’ outstanding noir.
    • 43 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A disappointing return to WWII, with sub-par artificial intelligence, limited multiplayer support and several annoying bugs.
    • 43 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark is a dull, ugly looking and boring third-person shooter, with a confused plot and without a single passage worthy of being remembered. The online co-op slightly uplifts the situation, but other than that there is really very little to save.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The Big Bank Heist is a new PayDay 2 DLC which offers a really tough, exciting and long-lived mission, where planning is essential. The flaws of the main game are still here (graphics and enemy AI), but if you're a fan of the four crazy robbers by Overkill Software, you won't regret the purchase.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    A decent on rail shooter that just loves to be plain stupid and politically incorrect. Simple, straightforward fun, enjoyable if you're in the mood for mutant chickens, meta-referential jokes and "low-budget John Woo moments".

    The Ground Forces expansion makes War Thunder even bigger than it was already, an MMO F2P that lets you choose the war you want: simulation or arcade, air or ground, challenging or relaxing, competitive or cooperative, free or with fee, PC or PS4.

    WildStar is one of the brightest and well crafted MMORPG came out in the last few years, and probably the most complete in terms of features and contents. There are a lot of stuff to do, monsters to kill and houses to build, for both casual and hardcore players.

    • 64 Critic Score
    With some more larger maps, more charismatic bosses and a lower price, Intercept would've deserved a higher rating, but as it stands this Killzone: Shadow Fall co-op DLC is just for die hard fans of the Guerrilla Games shooter. The changes made to the classical structure of the Horde mode are welcome, but beyond that there is not much to be satisfied here.
    • 64 Metascore

    Shovel Knight feels and plays alright, but it's far from perfection. It's an ode to Mega Man, a bow to the 8 bit era, but it plays it safe, too safe. Infinite lives and a too many checkpoints are the major flaws. And, from the technical point of view, the lack of colors sometimes is really sad.

    Valiant Hearts is quite a peculiar title: behind a simple (and even questionable) videogame lies a stunning experience than will warm your heart while teaching you actual history. If everyone played it, the world would surely become a better place.

    Studio Pixel is back to the future, with this addictive action-game. It came from the NES (not from the desert) and its a pixel bonanza. With its “Japanese spirit”, Kero Blaster is a wonderful indie game and you shouldn't miss it.

    This enhanced remake is able to capture its original spirit and, until it lasts, it's really funny. Sadly, after four hours you'll be tired of falling down the pit. And everything will feel like a chore. Beware of this and you won't regret the time spent with this game.
