Cut the Rope 3 reaffirms all the qualities of the series, offering a sequence of fun and generally undemanding puzzles in order to deliver an experience that may be short and lacking in depth, but is undoubtedly enjoyable and relaxing.

Beautiful girls lost in a post-apocalyptic, dark sci-fi world full of mechanical AI controlled entities: this is Crymachina plot and while it surely looks promising, its combat and structure makes for a average small-to-medium budget ARPG.

Agatha Christie - Murder on the Orient Express is a narrative adventure with puzzle interludes, which will appeal to Poirot fans, old and new, thanks to a good retelling of the original novel and a valuable final addition that expands on the familiar story. It's not meant for those who want a complex detective title to squeeze their little gray cells into, nor for those who want a state-of-the-art graphical presentation, but if you know what you're getting into you'll hardly be disappointed.

Cities Skylines 2 is the city builder we've been waiting for: beautiful to look at, complex in its systems, extraordinary in the construction and planning tools offered. The genre has never offered anything better, and this is just beginning...

Parabole has crafted another solid adventure which takes the players on a dense trip, without killing them at every corner.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder isn’t a masterpiece, but it’s still the best 2D Mario game of the last 25 years. It’s beautiful, weird and exhilarating: the Fethry Duck of the family.

Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged brings back the immediate and fun formula that worked so well in the first episode, adding some new features and increasing the contents and the variety of races.

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is still the very same Insomniac game you may have fallen in love with in the past years, just improved in almost every way.

NHL 24 is a solid entry in one of the oldest sports games on the market. New animations, the pressure system and the many options make up for the lack of real innovations.

EA Sports FC 24 for Nintendo Switch delivers the exciting concretization of a parity of content and features that owners of the hybrid console had been waiting for literally years, but on the other hand it stands as yet another impossible conversion that makes heavy compromises and sometimes struggles to run.

Sonic Superstars is the new chapter of the series in 2.5, and is enriched with many new features.

The Lamplighters League is a turn-based bonanza with Indiana Jones and Eldritch Horror Vibes that's a blast on Game Pass.

Lords of the Fallen will be, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the most divisive soulslike ever. On one hand, Hexworks has produced a brilliant spiritual successor to the original Dark Souls, enhanced by an outstanding map design and excellent innovations related to exploration; on the other, the team has badly stumbled in the challenging management of enemy progression and balance, thereby partially undermining the very best features of the game. It's a pity, because even though its flaws are severe, this game truly has a unique soul and we believe it has the potential to captivate a dedicated community. With a bit more time and some reconsideration, however, it could have reached even greater heights.

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide brings on Xbox Series X|S all the depth of its exciting cooperative formula, made up of frantic and visceral combat, support and solidarity for one's fellow adventurers, fast matchmaking, a completely redesigned progression system and fierce endgame content. That said, despite having almost a year to work on console optimization alone, graphics-wise Fatshark has pulled a half-disaster out of the hat: let's hope it doesn't take another twelve months to fix it.

Total War: Pharaoh is a Total War without infamy or praise, one might say. It's one of those chapters that works but doesn't seem to add anything significant to the discourse carried on by the series.

The Fabulous Fear Machine is a pulp horror strategy game that will let you use fear itself as a weapon to conquer the world, but at what price?

Although it can easily be derivative, Japanese Rural Life Adventure succeeds perfectly in its intent, drawing us into its dense progressive mechanics while cradling us in its cozy atmosphere.

The Gray Man adds nothing to the traditional narrative about the nature of serial killers. Anthony is presented as a monster, and the whole is reinforced by the rough graphic style, based on scribbles, as if the killer’s sick mind was a sheet violated by obscene, often senseless sketches. It is a fascinating visual choice, but the game is poorly realized on the front of the gameplay, with margins of interactivity poorly outlined.

In Cypher 007 there is a genuine commitment to trying to build a well-structured and original game, far from being a simple way of exploiting an important license. The gameplay is not the most dynamic and engaging, but the super-spy situations are well reproduced and it is certainly a recommended download for all Apple Arcade subscribers.

Junkworld is a very traditional but enjoyable tower defense game, featuring a large number of units to unlock and upgrade, a reasonably full-bodied and at times even challenging campaign, as well as a touch control system that is perfectly suited to the demands of the experience and never makes us want to use a Bluetooth controller, which is supported anyway.

EA Sports FC 24 Mobile improves the experience of the series on iOS and Android, adding new content, quick challenges and events, the classic Ultimate Team formula and much more.

Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventure of Dai is a product faithful to the manga and anime of reference, but also very lacking in terms of play.

With a relaxed mood and an atmosphere clearly aimed at the most loyal Pokémon fans, Detective Pikachu Returns packs a gentle but interesting narrative experience that delves into the bonds between Pokémons without being boring.

Assassin's Creed Mirage is a passionate tribute to the origins of the Ubisoft series, and those who missed those mechanics, atmosphere, and architecture will certainly not be disappointed with the game. Unfortunately, it's clear that something didn't in the delicate balance of stealth phases and combat: Basim can rely on an excessive number of abilities and gadgets that lowers the challenge progressively instead of increasing it, and as a result even the hand-to-hand fights are not the bogeyman we had hoped for.

Forza Motorsport has everything it takes to be the best Forza ever, but no element capable of distinguishing itself from others similar games.

Station to Station is a really... cute game! Yes, sometimes there's no need for grandiose terms, just as there's no need for hundred-hour-long games. Sometimes, as this title itself explains, all you need is something that can be opened and closed in ten minutes, a magical portal that takes you away from the line at the post office or from the next Excel sheet to review. With this purpose in mind, Station to Station is unbeatable; as an actual game, however, there's much better out there.

Much like the great explorers of the past, Valve embarked on a grand venture - the quest to further enhance the world's most popular FPS, driven by the curiosity to unveil what lay beyond the horizon of perfection. They did so, fully aware that the transition to Source 2 might potentially disrupt the balance that the CS:GO gameplay reached over ten years of updates. Yet, after several hours spent in the lobbies of Counter-Strike 2, we can confidently say it was absolutely worth it.

Wargroove 2 takes what was done by the first Wargroove and improves and expands it, building an epic adventure and providing fans of Japanese strategy games with quite a few hours of splendid gameplay.
