    A solid Dungeon Keeper-style strategy sim, with compelling gameplay and good online modes. Gamepad controls aren't optimal though, making it a bit uncomfortable to play in some areas.

    Asura's Wrath sports an entertaining and adrenalinic gameplay, coupled with great visuals and a captivating storytelling style. Nevertheless, its very repetitive gameplay, short duration and too low challenge level contribute to drag down its overall value.

    A visually pleasing open world 2D platformer, with vivid hand-drawn graphics and a rich and alive world. We would have liked more varied and compelling gameplay, though.

    The Bug Butcher sports a funny gameplay mechanic, but it lacks in variety making the play experience quickly repetitive. It's got a very good couch co-op mode, though.

    An ambitious and fascinating game, The Banner Saga sports memorable characters and great visuals but turned out to be too unbalanced towards the dialogues and management components, to the detriment of the turn-based battles.

    Loot River combines attractive looks and sounds to roguelike mechanics with Tetris contaminations, giving life to a definitely original gameplay loop. It suffers from some repetitiveness and a not too deep combat system, but it remains capable of fascinating the player thanks to its unique mechanics.

    Sherlock Holmes: The Devil's Daughter introduces new and interesting elements capable of making Sherlock Holmes a more human and charismatic character with some welcome additions in gameplay too, like the new first person mode. It's still got some of the series known defects though, like low-detailed characters and bad animations, while load times can often be exhausting.

    One of the best co-op action-RPGs around, but the single player mode feels overly unbalanced and punishing, making it impossible to complete for the lone adventurers.

    A stunning pixel art game, with a very interesting mix of mechanics ranging from management to tower defense in a roguelike structure. Unluckily it can get quickly boring too, and when it's not it can deliver some unbearable difficulty spikes.

    In Sound Mind is an ambitious horror title that throws us into real nightmares, giving life to highly varied situations but lacking in the horror component, with a few really scary situations and some gameplay design choices leading to monotony rather than tension. Despite this, it remains an interesting product with a good longevity, deserving the attention of fans of the genre.

    A hilarious physics-based puzzle game, especially if played in co-op with a friend. Creative puzzles, rich environments and odd situations distinguish this game.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    A solid open world tactical shooter, with good mission variety and depth. It disappoints in the technical and story departments, though; it partially feels like a missed opportunity, but definitely a step in the right direction for the series.

    A real blast from the past, recalling early Metroid and Super Mario times. It offers lots of contents and a good replayability, but the experience isn't always perfect due to a small input lag and an unpleasant knock back when touching enemies. All things considered, Amazing Princess Sarah is however an entertaining retro experience capable of delivering hours of fun to the genre lovers.

    Despite the new and interesting Challenge Play mode and the great golf implementation, Kinect Sports Season Two looks like a step backwards for the series, with generally uninteresting sports expecially for the european public. Keeping the first game sports together with the new ones would have kept it more interesting, adding more variety to the entire package.

    Wreckfest brings back its FlatOut roots with an heavy and destructive racer, but leaving behind some good features like the destruction-fueled Nitro system. Despite this, it's a racer every FlaToud, Burnout or arcade racer lover should consider buying.

    TurnOn delivers an artistically fascinating world, with nice gameplay mechanics in an highly detailed and full of life city. Its main downside is the overly easy gameplay, lacking any real challenge.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    An easy to learn but challenging twin-stick shooter, with a cute toyish modern war look and many levels to play. Its excessive simplicity could end up in being boring after a bunch of hours though, and lack of co-op looks like a missed opportunity.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    An exhilarating driving party game, where the driver-builder formula can create very funny sessions. It lacks a bit in variety and, even if including a single player mode, it's not for lone players. Definitely suggested if you want one more title to include in your party games rotation.

    Notwithstanding its defects, mainly in the on-foot part of the game and overall graphical look, Wheelman proves to be entertaining and able to keep the gamer involved until the end of the story. The action-racing part of the game offers some unique and interesting gameplay ideas that we'd like to see recycled in games with higher production values.

    RUINER pleases with its detailed, even if not so original, cyberpunk world and frantic action. Sometimes fights can become too chaotic and the story could have been better explained, but it'll definitely please lovers of action games and dark sci-fi settings.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    An intriguing action-platformer, with a great heavy metal soundtrack and a challenging, yet satisfying old school gameplay. Its short duration and some outdated design choices prevent it from fully shining, but Castlevania-like games lovers should give it a chance.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    Anarcute strikes for the stark contrast between violent urban action and its cute characters and world. It's based on a cool gameplay concept - controlling crowds with power-ups while they grow - but it might lack some deepens in its mechanics. All in all, a genuine and satisfying game to play.

    Even as a tie-in for an already canceled TV series, Gemini: Heroes Reborn is an intriguing and interesting game with some neat ideas; using physics and time-based powers during combats can become a really rewarding and creative experience. Unluckily technical problems and questionable design choices bring down its overall value.

    Far Cry 6 immerses us in a large open world with a ton of possibilities and a great cast of characters, but it fails to make a real splash compared to previous installments in the series, while also providing a too-low challenge level to the player.

    NHL 25 introduces much-needed changes and improvements to the series, most notably ICE-Q, a revamped Franchise mode and generally smoother play on the field. The result is definitely the best title in the series this generation, except for a revisable passing system.

    • 75 Critic Score
    Tales of Kenzera: ZAU is a good action-platformer with a great emotional impact, but it smacks of a wasted opportunity due to a too light approach to metroidvania mechanics and some problems with the controls. It however remains an enjoyable experience for fans of the genre.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Konami's horror games are still highly enjoyable thanks to a great focus on emotional pathos rather than on the technical side. Nevertheless, this collection feels like a lazy port, with several problems and no added extras. A worthy buy only if you've never played these great classics.

    Deadpool's charm and the great nonsense humor that High Moon Managet do infuse in the game are its brightest spots; on the other side we find an average and quite anonymous gameplay, with a too short longevity. Deadpool fans will surely love it, while anyone else should at least wait to find it at a budget price.

    Thanks to its deep simulation and strategic features, Mount & Blade: Warband is a great game for every lover of the medieval age, provided that you're willing to create your own story as the game won't provide any.
    • 59 Metascore

    The Bunker offers an FMV gaming revival with an intriguing story, good acting and a great location, but with very low interactivity and replay value, for less than a couple of hours of enjoyment. It's worth a run if you're not bothered by the whole "interactive movie" concept.
