    As a narrative adventure, Swansong delivers a good balance of exploration, character development, narrative decisions, puzzles and investigation. And as a board game adaptation, it is perhaps the most faithful game to Vampire: The Masquerade and a proof that video games can also adapt much more than the combat system of a pen and paper role-playing games.

    The biggest flaw in Infliction: Extended Cut are its similarities to so many other games. Many of its mechanics and design decisions have already been seen, but players who love horror will be hooked by its creepy atmosphere and story.

    Forskpoken isn't a bad game, but it isn't outstanding either. If you get interested in its universe, whether for its story or combat, it won't leave you indifferent. However, the game doesn't dazzle, and it might not meet the expectations of all players.

    In its own way Hellpoint seems like a signature Soulslike, because despite all the mechanics it borrowed from its inspirational series, Cradle Games managed to make an original game. It's a game designed for lovers of the genre, although not for purists, and it has received constant support from the development team so it is expected that future patches will solve the performance problems.

    Summer in Mara is a charming idea buried under poor mission design, boring story and all kinds of small and medium bugs. It's quite possible that many of these problems are solved by multiple patches, but the core of the game is already compromised.

    The Flower Collectors, with a simple story, shows to what extent society can normalize human rights violations, homophobia, transphobia and demonization of artists to the point of kidnapping, torture and organized murder. These themes aren't much common in the gaming industry, and this game is much worth it because of the way it tackles them.

    Alone In The Dark aims to reimagine the classic 1992 game but falls short in creating an atmosphere worthy of a pioneering franchise in the survival horror genre. Despite being accompanied by good music and decent performances, it is a title with significant shortcomings in its overall pace, moderately acceptable puzzles, and a poor combat system. It seeks to evoke the purest Lovecraftian essence but fails to execute this idea with the expected success, which is disappointing for such a beloved series that fails to release games up to par.

    Empire of Sin wanted to be more than it could be and, although artistically speaking it is beautiful, it fails in many of its systems or by being too simplistic in other aspects. Most likely, many of the problems will be fixed with patches and, as is customary in games published by Paradox, with an uncountable amount of DLC's and mods from the community that will not allow it to go into oblivion so quickly.

    With all its small improvements and a lot of content to make, Madden 21 offers a slightly better package than in previous years. However, it does not finish kicking the board or revolutionizing its mechanics; we're still waiting for a football game to blow us away.

    Hood: Outlaws and Legends shows that it has potential, and with future updates it may show its best, but as long as it continues down this path, it's really difficult for it to take off and become the next success.

    Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered is the best way to experience the lesser-known story of Lara Croft, in a remastered by Aspyr that hits much more than it misses.

    Little Big Workshop, in general terms, is a great management game and it offers very well optimized version on consoles, with very well applied concepts and a simplicity in controls that makes it very friendly for any type of player.

    In Beyond Contact, players need to be resilient in order to get into and become familiar with the game. It's not ideal: an adventure game should be engaging from the start. But if you are a fan of this genre, the range of possibilities it offers is worth the patience.

    Drawing on an arsenal of side missions that were already repetitive in 2013, this title is ideal for those who wanted that old GTA experience, but not for those looking for something next gen. Still, this comeback has things to offer: main missions often have great Uncharted-like action moments, customisation is still great and the story is so well written that I was left wanting a TV series. Saints Row is effective, but generic".

    Lust From Beyond is another horror game with good ideas executed in a limited way because it comes from a small studio. It stands out for its concept and the game is even a surprise in several aspects. It's a complete, terrifying and varied experience that fulfills horror fans demands even when it does not bring new mechanics.

    Hellbound has been in development for quite some time, and it's surprising to see that it has been polished so little since then. The main problem is that the game's shortages, paradoxically, are very easy to find in those games, from the golden age of shooters, that Hellbound is paying tribute to.

    Skully, in many ways, felt like a rehash or, more specifically, like a cross between Marble Madness gameplay and Zelda puzzles, but done in a hurry.

    Double Dragon Revive has all the ingredients to be a great game, but it loses its flavor in the mix. When it tries to update nostalgia, it loses its way.

    The decisions in many aspects of gameplay are correct for the time and even now, but Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition has some flaws that can't be put aside. It fails to be the cooperative and adventurous Final Fantasy that fans have long sought.

    Fort Solis offers a well-executed and enjoyable experience with impressive production values. While opinions on its storyline and resolutions may vary, the game encourages individual interpretation and leaves room for personal conclusions.

    Windbound is a survival game that takes inspiration in both Breath of the Wild and Wind Waker, two iconic games in the Zelda franchise. The work done by 5 Lives Studios results in a rather nice game experience—especially the sea sailing—that, sadly, feels constantly restricted by its own limitations.

    Disintegration is a hybrid between FPS and RTS that ultimately fails to deliver a satisfying experience on both ends. Its uninspired singleplayer campaign is filled with technical issues during cinematics and during missions. I never felt like I was having fun while playing the same type of objectives over and over again. Not even the somewhat decent multiplayer modes can save Disintegration from falling short of its expectations.

    Curse of the Sea Rats is a fun metroidvania designed for adults and children alike. It is colorful, sounds and plays very well, and offers a varied proposal. However, the bugs and the general lack of polish end up tarnishing the experience.

    Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League fails to reach anywhere near the level of greatness of the incredible Batman: Arkham, but it retains vestiges of its essence and is much more entertaining than I anticipated. The story is worth every second invested, and being a relatively short title, I would recommend it to any fan of the superhero genre in general.

    Commandos 2 HD is a poor remaster of a great game, falling short in almost every way. Graphic inconsistencies and inaccurate controls ruin the experience of playing it for hours.

    The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance Tactics is a great strategy game and, fortunately, players don’t need to know the story or the characters of the TV show in order to play it. The learning curve is very friendly, which means that any player can fully immerse themselves in this story of uprising and revolution. Netflix is now making headway into the game industry, after their mistake with Stranger Things the game.

    Blair Witch is, above everything else, an adventure full of good ideas. Despite some technical issues, it is a breath of fresh air, a first-person experience that does not fall into the cliché of being a jumpscare roller coaster or a simple horror walking simulator.

    The Spirit of the Samurai is a very creative and ambitious game, although with nuances. It is a game that presents an interesting story, but its execution on a playable level leaves something to be desired. The stop motion animation is frankly impressive, but it seems to have been achieved at the cost of a lack of polish in its systems. The title loses important points because of all this, although it also wins because of the courage Digital Mind had to try something different.

    Matchpoint - Tennis Championships is an odd game. It's the best tennis game in recent years, but it's really discouraging to see how much it lacks a final polishing.

    Nickelodeon Kart Racers 2 doesn't quite do enough to separate itself from other games in the kart racing genre. While we are playing, it undoubtedly feels as a competent game, but its gameplay is nothing new. Comparisons to games like Mario Kart are everywhere, and even the game's unique mechanics are not enough to elevate it.
