Reveil is a psychological horror adventure that relies on a mystery that gets solved relatively soon, but manages to keep your interest until the end. Its technical accomplishments create a terrifying atmosphere that, unfortunately, gets broken again and again by some details that were handled without care.

Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning isn't the best Action RPG today, but at the time it was so good that it felt like a window into the future of the genre. After replaying it, it's clear that it has aged like a good wine, because it manages to connect two aspects as important as an accessible but deep combat and a huge world full of characters and stories to discover.

Watch Dogs: Legion is undoubtedly the best of the series, the one that is closest to bringing the experience promised by that trailer of the first game. Hacks are useful and the lack of a fixed character ends up making DedSec the true protagonist and, since we recruit, control and manage the operators, in the end we end up feeling part of the resistance.

Destroy All Humans! is a remake that won't make much of an impact. While it feels like a modern title thanks to its gameplay and graphics, there are other elements that give its age away, as a title originally published in 2005.

Project CARS 3 carries some of the DNA that has defined the series from its origins, but it is also true that, with the change, part of the identity was lost. This is clear because it's fun, it works and fulfills every proposal, but at the same time, it does not change anything nor does it offer something that distinguishes it from the rest of its competitors.

Highwater is an adventure with a heavy focus on its narrative, and a turn-based combat system that presents its battles as puzzles. It is a modest but correct game in its technical aspects and the music is frankly spectacular, but each of its goals runs out of steam halfway.

Past Mario's sports games in many cases managed to get me interested in the real disciplines, but Mario Golf: Super Rush lacks inspiration and ability to inspire. Standard mode is an experience that can be satisfying, but everything else is forgettable.

Surgeon Simulator 2 takes the concept of the original game and adds a system of first-person exploration and puzzle-solving that may not be everybody’s cup of tea. The surgeries have been simplified to encourage a rather fun multiplayer mode, which nonetheless downplays the single player side of the experience.

Immortals of Aveum is a fun magical FPS that takes place in a colorful and spectacular world made in Unreal Engine 5. It has a frenetic and agile combat system, a modest replayability component and a fresh proposal. However, its predictable story, flat characters and the irregular aesthetic presentation end up being a difficult burden to drag. When it shows its best side it is pure fun, but when the action slows down and the dialogues, the exploration of generic areas and the constant updating in the forge begin, it can become repetitive and even tedious.

It's a shame, but considering the current state of the game, it's hard to recommend West of Dead. Its amazing visuals along with the setting and soundtrack are not enough to overcome the frustration that the game achieves in every corner.

Ikenfell is an RPG that looks simple, though it hides a much more interesting story, characters that evolve as the plot moves on, and a competent battle system. This is not a game that will blow our minds, but rather an extremely pleasant, engaging experience.

It's been a long time since I played Orcs Must Die!, but this franchise and this studio are always at the forefront of trying to apply new ideas to the genre and take it a little further, which is always appreciated.

Super Crush KO is a fun beat ‘em up that encourages us to improve our records and challenge ourselves. Despite its limitations with level design and relatively short duration, it manages to keep things fresh and entertaining.

Supermassive Games' formula is crying out for renewal, but they always manage to engage fans, who enjoy these adventures like a good horror movie night. The Devil In Me has technical issues that we can't ignore, however, it is The Dark Pictures' highest point to date.

Pokemon Sword/Shiled: Isle of Armor is the first piece of a whole called the Expansion Pass, and despite its incredible visuals and offering a new wilderness area, it's still relying on the next iteration to justify its price. Crown of Tundra comes later this year and its premise itself caught our eye from the very first moment. Island of Armor is just a way to prepare us for what is coming.

The Callisto Protocol is a sublime horror experience in atmosphere and immersion, offering a worthy challenge when it comes to single-enemy combat or against a mini-boss. The problem appears when the hordes arrive: when fighting many enemies, the rough combat mechanics are very noticeable. And being such a combat-centric survival horror, these shortcomings keep it from being one of the best of the year. [Review in Progress]

Captain Tsubasa: Rise of New Champions ends up being an unsatisfying game. It's far from the ideal experience and is spiced with various bugs and a poor translation that makes dialogues meaningless. The rest of the content, which adds a correct online mode and a dream team editor, is a nice addition but not enough to carry the weight of all its shortcomings.

The Survivalists manages to deliver what it promises, although that isn't enough to stand out among other titles in the genre. The Escapists series offered an original concept in our attempts to escape from heavily guarded prisons, but this new adventure lacks in terms of originality. The Survivalists is a good game that doesn't take risks beyond its comfort zone.

Out of Line features striking art direction but it is another puzzle adventure game that, obviously, doesn't change the formula.

Although what Madden NFL 23 has to offer is very generous in terms of content, EA still doesn't manage to give this series the 'TV feeling' that games like F1 or NBA 2K have. Similarly, there are improvements in collisions and graphic updates, but the game was released with bugs of all kinds that affected players on all platforms, which keeps this new release from reaching the glory as Madden did in its time.

No matter when you are reading this review, Rescue Team DX is a title that you cannot miss in your Nintendo Switch library. Any fan of Pokemon, or even those who love strategy RPGs, can enter this beautiful world, a complex and patient game that makes us experts in one dungeon at a time.

SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated gives us a good time. It is one of the best adaptations of a TV show into a video game, despite being a title that shows its age in several areas and that could have been better when it comes to a remake. But the charm of SpongeBob and his universe is still there.

Ninjala is a pleasant surprise. I expected absolutely nothing from it due to its generic appearance, but I found myself playing until the wee hours of the morning, immersed in its spectacular fights. It takes lot of time to learn to play it, to read correctly the chaos that their confrontations seem to unfold, but once this obstacle is overcome, a bunch of great battles awaits us.

NBA 2K21 is still the best in terms of simulation and production values that can be found in the sports genre, but the truth is that this is no longer enough to make it essential. In fact, gamers who already own 2K19 or 2K20 should stay there, unless they are dedicated to competing online and want to always be up to date.

Football Manager 26 offers a familiar experience with an extensive database and management options, along with changes to the graphics engine, UI, and gameplay, which are sure to mark the beginning of a new era for Sports Interactive.

We will keep an eye on how Hyper Scape evolves, but the first impression has not been entirely good even when it has some interesting, fresh and original ideas that can push the genre forward.

Stela is a beautiful visual experience. The sound design is magnificent too and, together with the art direction, they create a beautiful world. But while it is not a bad game, it is bland and even boring. There is nothing special about Stela, specially if we compare it with all those similar platformers such as Limbo, Inside or even Another World.

Exit the Gungeon is a very cute, fun and extremely entertaining game, and it really doesn't need to be much else. It is a quick casual experience, for hardcore and casual gamers alike, that you can play for only ten minutes or during an hour or more.
