    This game is an interesting one which presents as a common "visual novel" game but in the end presents a totally different approach as the game progress. In the end it feels very mixed with some aspects where the game done well but in other ones it doesn't.

    The Escapists 2 expands the idea of the original title and goes beyond; it packs a lot of prisons from which we can find some original and sometimes funny ways of escape. And this time, we can bring friends to the party, since it has cooperative and versus modes.

    Shadowhand is an enjoyable strategic card game with RPG elements. The core of the game is not other but the traditional solitaire. Al tough the additions are interesting, lucky factor is too important and ruins, in some way, the general experience.

    Splasher truly shines when it comes to its core gameplay as well as the surprising variety of situations that you will encounter.

    Yomawari Midnight Shadows follows its predecessor in major aspects but is getting better in others like the graphic style and the game's story.

    This title which includes the three original games plus a fourth one, totally new in the series, offers quite a number of hours with an interesting cast of characters and a story which becomes more appealing with next chapter, besides a simple but enough combat system. However, the graphical quality despite seems good in some aspects, in others seems obviously outdated.

    Rive is one of those hectic games that leaves you exhilarated. The problem is that it will just end too soon because of the overabundance of checkpoints, no matter the difficulty.

    Excellent combination of deck building, action RPG and roguelike that unfortunately is not the step forward with respect to its predecessor that it should have been and retains all of the drawbacks of the first game, like the repetitive combat system with almost no depth.

    Call of Duty: WWII is certainly better than its predecessor —Infinite Warfare— and a lot better than Advanced Warfare, the previous iteration in the series developed by Sledgehammer Games. It packs a bunch of typically well received game modes by the players (Campaign, Multiplayer, Nazi Zombies) and it will certainly not disappoint the hard to the core gamers and fans of the genre alike. It doesn't play in the same league as Modern Warfare, but it's one of the best Call of Duty titles so far.

    The Assassin's Creed franchise returns after a year of absence with a new game set in Ancient Egypt. Origins is a new beginning for the series, and comes along with several major changes in gameplay design. Ubisoft's Egypt is not only beautiful and dangerous, but also a mysterious living world. The new RPG system, the redesigned combat system, and the missions are the pillars of Assassin's Creed Origins. It is more an evolution of the formula than a revolution. Of course it´s not a perfect game, specially because the battle system doesn´t work so well with many enemies. Also, the AI should be improve in the future.

Perfect for those who never played it or who just simply want to have fun anywhere.
