    Droidscape: Basilica is indeed a quite unique puzzle game, with a deep background story. But it also has various flaws, specially the not always accurate control system.

    One of the best ways to offer a free to play game, without harassing the gamer asking money and money to be competitive. The RPG elements are interesting and offer a new way to live the Tekken experience, but maybe series' old fans are not inclined to accept them.

    Star Wars Pinball for Wii U is a flipper masterpiece, packed with content to keep you pounding away for hours. If you have already purchased the game on other platforms, you may re-evaluate the purchase just for the multiplayer options and the more generous dimensions of the GamePad.

    Prince of Persia The Shadow and the Flame is a poor platform game, with an inaccurate control system that has nothing to do with the original game.
    • 76 Metascore

    Turn-based tactical combat, skills, spells and upgrades, thick and well-written dialogues, great cyberpunk atmosphere, good longevity and a powerful level and campaign editor.

    Don't worry about the free to play model business or the lack of night levels: Plants Versus Zombies 2 is exactly the game you were looking for. New plants and Plant Food add a new level of strategy, as well as the peculiar gameplay of the different worlds. Every single fan of the original game should give a chance to this sequel.

    Pacific Rim is the usual useless and badly developed tie-in; everything, from the graphics to the combat-system, leaves much to be desired and the pushy in game purchases are the classic final blow on a game that no one frankly was missing.

    Pikmin 3 is the best game in the series, but that's not enough to define it as a masterpiece. Game mechanics are effective and funny, thank to a flawless control system, but the absence of a true online mode and the lack of real new features don't help to differentiate the game from its predecessors. Anyway, this is a game that every Wii U owner should at least try, and the proof that Nintendo still is the master in terms of game design.

    Aqua Moto Racing 3D suffers from a number of technical problems. Much better to choose to the iOS version, rather than spending ten Euros in a racing game floundering in the waves.
    • 41 Metascore

    The lack of polishing is the main problem of a game with a lot of wasted potential. Clunky controls, bad A.I. and tiny production values condemn Dark to mediocrity. Only for hardcore stealth fans with a lot of patience.

    Urban Trials Freestyle is no Trials by RedLynx, but it's a competent clone: fun and challenging game perfectly, suitable for Nintendo 3DS, with easy-to-pickup-and-play nature and a fair amount of challenges.
    • 40 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    A derivative and mediocre game with not a single fresh idea and just the budget pricing and a decent co-op mode to make it mildly interesting, if you're into that kind of multiplayer experience.

    Deus Ex: The Fall is a great example of how today, with a few euros, you can have a "console" title even on a smartphone and a tablet. There are some flaws (touch controls are not perfect, gunplay is inaccurate, enemy AI is very weak), but there are many values too as great graphics, exploration, plot and deep stealth sections.

    Engaging and entertaining, Rogue Legacy is a solid remix of classic arcade cliches bend together with a pair of original twists. The result is a solid action game which will keep you playing for a long time.

    Beside the “gore-galore” there's a solid beat'em up, charming and fun. If you're a Mortal Kombat addicted you'll get tons of fun, but beware: searching for online players can be painful and the net-code is ugly. Stick to the traditional head to head and everything will be fine.

    Mario & Luigi Bros. Dream Team is a true masterpiece, the best of the four role-playing games developed by AlphaDream for DS. It's the most psychedelic, chock full of things to do and boss fight at every turn, it's filled with dry humor and the standard gameplay is originally supplemented with a 2D world.

    Nothing really new under the sun of TrackMania 2, just an artificial Stadium of arcade precision and a natural Valley of dirty driving. After Canyon, two extra physical environments and different driving styles to race offline and online.

    Step by step, Duels of the Planeswalkers becomes better and better with every edition. The addition of a bit more of deck-building in this 2014 release is a solid step towards a full-fledged Magic: The Gathering experience.

    Another lovely platform/puzzle game, with an adorable visual style, an engaging soundtrack, tight controls and some very good level design. It has its charm, but there's too much “more of the same” and if you're not into Time Attack it's pretty short. Fans of the Mighty series should love it, though.

    As an updated remake, Leisure Suit Larry: Reloaded is a good example of improved graphics and the new game section is not bad. This revival operation works less well considering the modest longevity, low difficulty of the puzzles and scaffolding narrative that, despite all the good will, has no longer the sexy and funny appeal of 26 years ago.

    Project X Zone is a repetitive and boring tactical RPG that survives to itself only thanks to the charisma of its historic characters, who come from some of the most famous video games sagas created by SEGA, Namco Bandai and Capcom.

    Dillon’s Rolling Western: The Last Ranger offers both action and tower defense, and the result is a deep but immediate game. It also has a very good art direction that is rare to find in a budget game.

    Do not miss this collection of amazing examples of "auteur games": the world would surely be a better place if everybody had the chance to play these games and live these breathtaking experiences.

    A huge expansion, which manages to give the fans countless hours of new strategic fun, without breaking the core balance of the game. Even though it's time for a new installment, Brave New World will be very hard to pass for all the Civ fanatics out there.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Capsized is a linear, hectic, tight action game with a strong eighties/nineties vibe and a very unique visual style. If you're not looking for the depth and the exploration of a "Metroidvania", you will not be disappointed.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    The console version of Le Tour De France 2013 tries to simplify gameplay too much by cutting away almost any managerial aspect and has some annoying technical issues, especially in terms of frame rate. It's a mediocre game, plain and simple.

    400 Days doesn't innovate with incredible new ideas, but it's a nice "bridge" between the first and second season of The Walking Dead. Narration is effective as usual, with strong emotions and an interesting twist in the non linear timeline of events. If you loved Season 1, you will probably love this DLC.

    Thanks to the charming personality and the insane amount of humour, you'll really, really want to love Deadpool. Yet this will feel like a huge wasted opportunity, with the greatness of the main character crushed underneath the inconsistency of the gameplay and the low-budget feel.

    With an excellent combat system and a good work on the source material, Neverwinter could be one of the best MMORPGs out there. Too bad the end-game and the group mechanics tend to be so repetitive.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    This is how DLCs or sequels should be made: by avoiding the "more of the same" formula. No sameness here, it's a great addition, with a lot of humour and unique gameplay. One of the greatest DLCs in recent years.
