Drag x Drive surprises with its concept and controls, but disappoints in content, variety, and design. A missed opportunity that only works well when played online with friends with similar skill.

A bright and unpretentious fighting game, who pays the duty for his ambitions of immediacy, finishing up being rather insipid.

Concord is excellent on the shooter side but less so on the hero side: the potential is there, but the execution so far could be better. The problems remain more impressive than the bland characters, and this is not a good sign.

The Nexus Game Studios’ debut title is a point&click adventure literally split in two. Funny, irreverent and full of hilarious homages to the nerd-geek culture, but also full of puzzles and riddles that lack in logic and meaning.

With not-so-exciting new game modes and lack of online gamers, Tetris Ultimate isn't the best Tetris experience ever. But its rich offline multiplayer support keeps it afloat.

Freedom Wars Remaster proves what this game could have been with a better management in terms of story and lore, and a more variety when it comes to enemies and environments.

Milestone brings back the real MotoGP experience, unfortunately with many technical issues (graphics engine limps and suffers in the most hectic situations). Once again, it's a starting point to create, someday, the perfect hybrid between MotoGP 08 and GP500, but it's not the game that many fans have been waiting from Milestone.

How to Survive has some undoubted merits, mainly thanks to the crafting and combat system and the survival component. However, the game is very immature from other points of view, like the variety of enemies and locations, the limited size of the islands, the graphics and the triviality of quests and dialogue.

Football Manager 26 marks a new beginning for Sports Interactive’s saga, but not without growing pains. The move to Unity and a revamped, albeit convoluted, interface bring ambitious depth and realism in football storytelling, yet also contradictions and rough edges that make this a fascinating but imperfect transition year.

Contrast has a couple of very nice ideas and a lot of style, but it feels underdeveloped and it doesn't live up to the expectations it sets up with its first few minutes. It deserves a chance if you like the setup and its mood, but don't expect too much from it.

Atomfall marks a courageous change of direction for Rebellion, offering a fascinating British uchronia with satisfying exploration and effective ranged combat. However, technical shortcomings, deficient AI, and superficial storytelling prevent the title from fully expressing its potential, despite the commendable freedom granted to the player.

Amnesia: The Bunker is a more guided experience than it claims, where ingenuity and improvisation are replaced by tedious resource management.

Albeit an arguably better version of Deathwing, this enhanced edition isn't able to overcome the faults of the original game. The emperor is displeased.

Quite simplistic and a little bit boring, Foul Play is a second-choice in comparison to Castle Crashers and Scott Pilgrim VS The World. Its nice setting and peculiar visual style may be enough reasons for giving it a try, yet do not expect an outstanding brawler. Also, not supporting four players is a very bad choice.

Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss is a Lovecraftian game to the core, but it is also an investigative adventure with an overly slow pace and less frightening than expected.

Birthdays: The Beginning is a nice simulation game with really cute art direction, which fans of the genre and people who seek a relaxing gaming experience will probably enjoy. Unfortunately it has its flaws, like poorly detailed graphics, slight frame rate drops and clunky controls, that we hope will disappear in the next titles of the series.

While the GlassBox engine is definitely an exciting direction for a city builder, its implementation is still lacking. Strange behaviours and problems in pathfinding are more than frequent, and the area available to build your city is too small. Online features are entertaining, but they don't justify all the limitations of the always-online system.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is not an absolute disaster, but it fails to reach the same levels of the excellent adventures of the Batman: Arkham series. The third-person shooter developed by Rocksteady Studios is certainly fun (especially when played together), dynamic and chaotic, but except for a good but not excellent gameplay it does not have much to offer in terms of overall quality.

In Redfall, Arkane's trademark can only be seen in places, and the end result, while not entirely awful, falls far short of what we expected from the return to the scenes of Prey’s creators.

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.

Killing Floor 3 is bloody and fun, but stuck in the past: a solid co-op shooter with old-school charm, yet lacking innovation and at risk of becoming repetitive without fresh content.

LittleBigPlanet 3 is a shallow platform game that has lost its magic and is short of content. A vibrant community and a powerful editor help to keep it afloat.

A third chapter that could have seized the opportunity of the change in direction for a brave, new course, but instead settles for a sufficient rehash of its predecessors.

An interesting railroad management simulator that seems a little bit stuck in time.

A bland stylish action that proves how ambition and passion should never override actual experience.

A quick game that will delight the fanbase and nothing more.

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".

Park Beyond is a decent game for fans of the theme park simulation genre, its gameplay is solid enough, and there are many options to choose from when building the park of our dreams. It lacks originality, though, and there are still quite a few bugs and glitches that can negatively impact players' experience.
