Strife hides a merciless challenge behind his well crafted Nineties costume. Not only old-style FPS lovers can find death on Icarus but also who's searching for a demanding moment of pure gore. Perhaps different levels of difficulty could have expanded the audience.- IGN Italia

Yes there are tons of dragons and yes, you're gonna catch 'em all, but sadly this is not enough to recommend Dragon's Prophet. Under scales and tusks there is an ordinary MMORPG with boring quests and too much grinding in it, and the old graphics engine doesn't help to keep players engaged, but at least it's free to play.- IGN Italia

Project Motor Racing tries to pick up the Project CARS legacy by sitting on the more sim-focused side of simcade, with a decent variety of cars and tracks and a driving model that can be enjoyable, especially on a wheel with some assists enabled. Overall, however, it struggles to find a clear identity, with a dry, spreadsheet-like career, merely adequate visuals and sound, inconsistent AI and several missing features and rough edges. A project with interesting potential that, at launch, stays well below its own ambitions.- IGN Italia

The beginning with the naval engagements is compelling, some missions are well thought out and taking the role of this new Connor is like to control a superhero.

Konami Anniversary Collection: Arcade Classics is quite a lazy collection of a bunch of good 80s games.

Chocobo GP recollects the legacy of Chocobo Racing, proving to be a solid and fun kart game with the undeniable added value given by being set in the Final Fantasy universe. With famous locations from different chapters of the series and iconic characters, anyone who loves the Japanese series will instantly feel at home. It isn't easy to find originality in a kart game, it's inevitable to learn from the masterpieces of the genre but Chocobo GP doesn't lack a personality of his own and this has to be noted. We are not saying that the yellow feathered bird has surpassed the mustachioed Italian plumber but those looking for an alternative after the years spent on Mario Kart 8 Deluxe will not be left disappointed, the only shame is the fact that there are just a few limited number of circuits available that we hope will be increased with the already announced post launch support.- IGN Italia

A tactical RPG where the tactics are not deep enough.

Despite many good ideas, Aztech Forgotten Gods is a superficial experience lacking real courage, representing a step backwards for Lienzo. The story develops hastily, failing to describe each of the characters featured in the game's plot. The gameplay is too confusing, with not very incisive and unfortunately similar to each other, never really giving the feeling of diversification in the combat system and with unfortunately very similar bosses.- IGN Italia

WRC 4 is a bit more "pretty" and appealing than WRC 3.

The Good Life is Swery's first take on the Life simulators genre. While it incorporates all the features that made him a cult creator it also shows a disorienting mix of elements and mechanics that just don't work well together.
