KeyWe is a light-hearted, two-player platformer/puzzle experience. It is a perfect title to play with young children or those who have no experience in the gaming world. Don't expect a complex challenge but if you're looking for a game to break the routine, it can work.

Trifox is the epitome of the relaxing yet challenging action platformer. It's slightly nostalgic but original enough and it's twin stick shooter mechanics are real fun

Succeeding where last year's edition fell short, EA Sports FC 25 debuts without loud changes, but with a substantial number of updates that touch almost all of its countless game modes. The improvements made to Career Mode and Clubs were essential, while we were slightly disappointed with Rush and the overall lack of significant changes to Ultimate Team. However, what makes the game bright — and perhaps the most crucial aspect of a football game — is the slow, balanced gameplay with astonishing tactical depth that the Canadian studio managed to deliver this year.

A miracle? Against all expectations S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 has really managed to resurrect the series, and without affecting its most important features, without betraying its philosophy. By remaining itself, S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 reaffirms its uniqueness.

Forestrike merges action, strategy, and roguelite elements into a truly compelling formula. The ability to repeat battles as many times as you want to refine your strategy before actually implementing it is a very interesting concept and fully embodies the spirit of true martial arts. The replayability is excellent, although some technical and balancing issues are a pity.

Quotation forthcoming.

This ninth episode is – finally – innovative and original, with a strange but appreciated focus on the boss fights. Sadly the winner, now more than ever, is chosen by fortune. A new starting point, that has to be polished in the next chapters. On WiiU, possibly.

Soul Calibur is an excellent beat'em-up, with a solid gameplay, great touch controls and graphics. What a pity it only comes with four short game modes and no multiplayer at all.

Escape from Tarkov is a game with many flaws and limitations. And yet, its formula — which helped lay the groundwork for the extraction shooter genre — is extremely addictive. It’s not a game for everyone, but in its 1.0 version it stands as an almost essential title for fans of the genre.

Even if Minotaur Rescue has its great moments, you shouldn't expect the same, disarming and hallucinogenic experience of the previous unforgettable Jeff Minter's games. Minotaur Rescue is a must-have for nostalgics of the Atari era: its control system is probably imperfect, but with some practice it proves to be entertaining and nicely chaotic. The new Llamasoft game is a true self-celebration that mirrors an old-time game developer and its golden era: Minter's followers will not be disappointed.

Sadly the multiplayer is the worst aspect of the entire game. And this is something you have to consider for a card game.

Yo-Kai Watch 2 Psycoscopes is really the ultimate experience with regard to the crazy universe of Level-5.

Quotation forthcoming.

Sniper Elite 3 Ultimate Edition brings the classic formula of Rebellion's franchise to Nintendo Switch, with all of its strenghts and weaknesses.

ArmA II: Operation Arrowhead comes with a nice single player campaign, a series of stand-alone missions, a nice online multiplayer mode and lots of weapons and vehicles. Unfortunately the AI doesn't work good, the characters animations are poor and the controls are the antithesis of immediacy.

Galaxy on Fire 3 - Manticore is a solid space shooter with plenty of missions, maps, enemies and upgrades.

Quotation forthcoming.

LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean is not as good as the previous LEGO games. It's a good game, funny and entertaining as usual, but it's shorter, less varied and simpler than, for example, Clone Wars.

The frame rate appears anchored to 60 frames, without particular uncertainties, while the soundtrack signed by Bear McCreary boasts an excellent main theme and, in general, effectively accompanies the action.

Pudding Monsters could be an original puzzle game, but it's too simply and above all it can be finished in about 30 minutes! Cut The Rope is far away.

Life is Strange 2: Episode Two - Rules carries forward the narration of the first chapter, introducing new characters and focusing on the personalities of the protagonists.

This new episode doesn’t introduce any new elements in the gameplay but the new content is perfect for the fan of the original game.

Punch Club combines strategic, management and RPG elements, all surrounded by a nice 8bit style.

God Eater 2: Rage Burst is a solid attempt at the action survival genre, with a long campaign, co-op multiplayer and lots of customization.

Pandora's Tower is some kind of a perfect example of what a small Japanese developer should do: a niche product with many interesting qualities and some kind of innovation to a starving genre. Some control issues and a disappointing graphical engine are the lows of an overall recommended game.

Farming Simulator 19 is good, but lacks of innovations. The new veichles and crops will appease only the true fans of the series.

Eternal Threads has really convinced us, thanks to the freedom it leaves the player to carry out the investigation as he likes. In the end, temporal manipulation is just the excuse to propose an excellent investigative puzzle game.

No Longer Home is evidently a heartfelt video game narration created with love by a duo that shared an important part of life. Unfortunately, its derivative nature and the briefness of the narration are the proponents of a missed empathic experience that could have hit harder than it does.
