Layers of Fear 2 is like a big, strange and greedy DLC of the first chapter. Despite the extreme "more of the same" feeling, in some ways here the expressionist atmosphere is even more disturbing than the painter adventure. On the other hand, however, the story is too fragmented, answers are not sufficiently clear and the game needs more than opening doors and trivial environmental puzzles.

Outer Wilds is a brilliant Sundance Sci-Fi experience, with a perfect balance of space exploration, mystery solving and storytelling. The solar system designed by Mobius Digital is an outstanding playground, full of odd surprises and unique events. Above all, it's a place worth exploring and it’s perfectly integrated into the time loop structure of the game. If you love to feel a genuine sense of discovery and adventure, it’s definitely your game.

An overall enjoyable tromp into the fantasy half of the Warhammer universe. Many similarities with Diablo 3 allow Chaosbane to differentiate itself from its other rivals.

Blood & Truth is a first-person shooter that takes perfect advantage of virtual reality and squeezes every PlayStation VR chip as much as we could ask for.

Everybody’s Golf VR has the great limitation of providing little in terms of contents and game modes, but what it offers is great for any golf fan.

Observation has its flaws (mainly in the technical side), but is a great example of how videogames can come up with new ways of telling stories.

Castlevania Anniversary Collection is a rock solid collection of (some) great old school games. Anyway, the lack of real extra features, apart from the ebook, the absence of a masterpiece as Rondo of Blood and some odd choices by Konami make the collection feel a little bit pedantic.

Team Sonic Racing is a game full of content, enjoyable to play and with a very well-structured co-op mode. Nevertheless, the title suffers on the medium/long duration, with a design of the tracks not always delighted and the readability of the action sometimes compromised by some aesthetic choices. Team Sonic Racing, therefore, while giving peaks of unquestionable fun, is devoid of that leap, that spark of play that can make the difference.

Three Kingdoms is one the best, if not the very best, historical Total War game. The strategic gameplay is especially compelling, and almost Paradox-like in depth. Still, the lack of variety caused by the limited setting widens the gap with the much more spectacular, and overall more enjoyable, Warhammer 2.

A Plague Tale: Innocence does not show the side to any blow, allowing itself to be pointed out for a couple of minor defects, unable to affect the final result.

Rage 2 is a pleasure to play if you like to shoot and destroy things, but don't ask for much more in terms of gameplay… you would be disappointed.

Saints Row: The Third is still fun play and 8 years later it feels better if enjoyed in short session in handheld mode. The main problem of this release is the lacklustre porting, spoiled by framerate issues, some crashes and poor controls optimization. Anyway, if you feel nostalgic about the Saints irreverence, it's still worth a shot.

Today as thirteen years ago Final Fantasy XII is still a great game, blessed by an innovative combat system and a great and vibrant world. Maybe the story is not as grasping as others, but it still is a pleasure to play.

With interesting setting and characters, Close to the Sun starts as a piece of art, but it doesn't keep its premises due to hurried pacing and a bit superficial evolution of the story. Non trivial jumpscares and a good direction make this short game really a missed opportunity and only a decent horror adventure.

A great comeback for an amazing game: if you didn't manage to play Final Fantasy X back in the days, you definitely should play it now.

Mortal Kombat 11 has all it takes to be the new king of fighting games. A must-have for both veterans and new players.

Luxurious environments and tons of content make Days Gone a good choice for open world lovers. But the ambitious adventure crafted by Bend Studio has more than a few annoying issues and shortcomings under the hood.

Katana Zero is a fast-paced action game which shines thanks to its smooth, brilliant and clever gameplay, while surprisingly good writing gives an unexpected depth to the game. It’s a brand new take on the classic genre mechanics, made even cooler thanks to a lovely art style and a powerful soundtrack.

Ghost Giant is a perfect example of how the VR adapts very well re: puzzle games, thanks also to a very satisfying interaction with the environment.

World War Z has a Left 4 Dead-based-DNA that exposes too much its lack of originality. The game, in its essence, is fun and enjoyable, but most of the merit it isn't all of its doing.

Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen on Nintendo Switch is not perfect at all but it still has its own charm.

Falcon Age makes good use of the unique features of VR and conveys a very special feeling thanks to the relationship with the falcon, but the gameplay has more shadows than lights.

Anno 1800 may be about the industrial revolution, but its design is quite conservative. A boon for the fans of the series, who will find themselves at home with this new iteration of the economic simulator they know and love.

Beautiful and unpleasant as always, Cuphead arrives on Switch as a simply unassailable version.

Konami Anniversary Collection: Arcade Classics is quite a lazy collection of a bunch of good 80s games. The emulation is quite smooth, most of the games are still fun, but some bizarre games choices, a quite essential look and the lack of peculiar features such as online support make the collection just average.

Super Dragon Ball Heroes: World Mission is a must buy for all fans of the Dragon Ball Universe. It offers an incredible amount of characters, cards and missions in which you will enjoy a good strategy card offensive game. It's nth-power's fan service, but it's good fun service.

Dangerous Driving is a fun but limited old-style racing game. Its sense of speed is exhilarating, but on a standard Xbox One/PS4 the frame rate drops to a not so exciting 30fps.

The original three Phoenix Wright finally in HD, with a good remaster ready to be played by both old and new gamers.
