Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist is a safe bet for both Ender Lilies fans and any player who loves the metroidvania genre.

As in the first part, the studio hits the mark by offering a very satisfying experience at the controls.

Anachronistic both in a good and a bad way, Yooka-Laylee recaptures the charm of the 32-bit era collectathon platformers.

The new story offered by Harebrained Schemes does not only provide great content to the game but also opens the door to users who want to unleash their imagination. Although its overall image is blurred by its price inexplicably equal to the original content, Shadowrun Returns still is -possibly- the best adaptation of the world of Shadowrun to date.

Two years later, Assassin's Creed tries again to make real those promises from Ubisoft, and prove itself as a better game than it was. The truth is that, despite the Renaissance setting, the vivid locations and the historical landmarks, the new features added don't really improve the sequel: the same repetitive mechanics remain, as the flawed enemy AI, a rough combat system and moments of frustration coming from issues with the camera and the control response in the platform sections. Assassin's Creed II it's still a good game but far from the masterpiece Ubisoft has been promising.

Space Marine is a great first try for Relic in its attempts to move Warhammer 40,000 to a different genre.
