Enotria: The Last Song deserves full marks, we are absolutely certain of this. But it is a title full of imperfections: this too is undeniable. Imperfections that denote a certain inexperience of the development team who chose to risk too much, to launch themselves into one of the most complex genres of the current videogame market, where there are some practically unattainable progenitors and a small handful of other exponents who, with difficulty, they did it. Unfortunately, Enotria is very far from all of these and although it offers an experience that, we are sure, will give some satisfaction to those who need to play at least one soulslike a month, it does not allow us to overlook all the problems associated with its game mechanics and the experience it offers. Our hope is that the team takes advantage of the criticism and launches headlong into a sequel capable of drastically improving every single aspect of the game while maintaining a certainly very fascinating imagery.

Ara tries to reinvent the 4X wheel with a really exciting gameplay system. However, it lacks dynamism, a more interesting diplomatic and trade system and a bit of nastiness that makes us feel the political and social weight of our choices. If they raise it well, it can become an unforgettable game.

Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed is a remake that is very faithful to the original, updating it with modern graphics and also bringing some improvements to the gameplay.

Bethesda hits the mark again with another mobile production after Fallout Shelter: The Elder Scrolls Castles is an excellent management game focused on the lore of the famous fantasy series, capable of keeping us busy for a long time.

Frostpunk 2 is a brutal city builder with a marvelous political system.

Considering the starting subject, Funko Fusion can also be considered a clever adaptation of the brand to a form of video game, unfortunately the execution of the gameplay leaves much to be desired: the idea of different worlds is interesting, but the third-person shooter is bland, confusing, imprecise and uninteresting.

Reynatis has some interesting ideas, but never manages to fully realize any of them, wasting narrative and gameplay insights that could have led to a much more intriguing adventure. Credit goes to the soundtrack, composed by Yoko Shimomura, and to a combat system that is overall enjoyable, though never truly technical. As for the rest, there's little that's truly magical.

A game crafted by a team that has built a strong and proactive relationship with its userbase. This connection, among other things, has helped Satisfactory become the amazing game it is today. Now almost bug-free, with stunning graphics and a complete storyline, Coffee Stain’s game lives up to the early access hype and managed to go beyond all expectations.

Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown is a bitter, bitter disappointment. Instead of focusing on what made this series so important, the developers decided to imitate the most famous open world driving games but without having the slightest comparable capabilities. The result is a racer that can even be enjoyable at times, with a beautiful setting and an interesting progression system, but trivial in execution and spoiled on PC by enough problems to leave you baffled.

Broken Sword - Il Segreto dei Templari: Reforged is the best way to replay the classic Revolution Adventure, waiting for the fourth chapter.

The Plucky Squire is Toy Story meets your favorite childhood book. It does so with all the love and gratitude possible for those stories that inspired us as kids to become who we are today, thanks to the courage of their heroes, their cleverness, and their ability to speak directly to our hearts. But it’s also a fantastic video game, brimming with ideas, aesthetic and gameplay inventions, that knows how to connect two worlds excellently, blending them into a single unforgettable adventure.

Unsatisfactory for those accustomed to open-world games of this decade and lacking as an (un)enriched re-release of a game nearly twenty years old, *Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster* risks ending up poorly. Fortunately, the charm of its original concept and the characterization of the game environment, along with some still-valid ideas, lift it from a fate of potential mediocrity. It will be hard to become as passionate about it as some did almost twenty years ago, and newcomers to Willamette won't find enough content designed for them. But all in all, a stroll through Al Fresca Plaza and a chat with the guy at the supermarket still work today... just much less than before.

Star Trucker is as valuable as any video game that offers something unique and unparalleled. It’s distinctive, bold, well-crafted, and designed with a specific audience in mind. However, if your sole interest is in driving, you might want to consider other options.

NBA 2K25 delivers a top-tier basketball experience with noticeable improvements and quality-of-life updates, though it's slightly hampered by the lack of a scenario mode, gameplay issues, pervasive microtransactions, and the requirement to stay online.

Harry Potter Quidditch Champions is a decent simulator of the most famous sport in the Wizarding World. It lacks content and modes capable of providing long-term entertainment, but the various Quidditch roles are well represented, and the game doesn't fall short from a graphical perspective. However, the specific nature of the sport makes it a video game designed for and recommended only to true fans.

Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics is a huge deal for fighting games lover with some of the most beloved 2D fighters in history and The Punisher beat'em up for good measure. With some excellent quality of life additions, rollback netcode and tons of options to customize each game, the compilation is a must buy for couch play and online too.

Yars Rising is a decent metroidvania. Period. Nothing more, nothing less.

The Casting of Frank Stone isn't a bad video game, it's just another lazy product that follows a path that Supermassive Games has charted, and never abandoned, over the past decade. Not even the screenplay helps him much, with characters that don't shine and situations that don't make the gamer uncomfortable, incapable of making him feel tension. It's a horror that isn't scary, that doesn't manage to overcome the boundaries of a self-imposed teen slasher, but that lives in a fascinating narrative universe, where there was room for maneuver to write something more aware and lively.

Squirrel with a Gun is a flawed game with some fun jokes and an abysmal gameplay.

Gundam Breaker is a huge step up for a franchise which was apparently doomed to oblivion: still an arcade game at heart with a repetitive stage selection and a paper thin anime plot, it features a crazy amount of customization options for a solid combat system which will make fans of Gunpla happy.

Astro Bot by Team Asobi is a hymn to video games and to the very act of playing: the PlayStation 5 robot is at the center of the first truly new generation platformer, a work created with obsessive care that pays homage to the entire story of the genre. Relying on impeccable level design and simply perfect technical execution, it unrolls a carpet of ideas, mechanics and wonderful moments that never cease to amaze and shock, from the first start up to the end credits. The consecration of Nicolas Doucet's team, which still has a slight margin for improvement, effectively leads to the birth of a new star on the PlayStation front, finally giving fans a title that is nothing short of unmissable.

The War Within is a decent start to the all-new Worldsoul Saga with an engaging story, some good character development and a very promising villain. Content wise it's more of the same, quality of life improvement notwithstanding: same gameplay loop, same quest design, same issues with balancing and a few new features, such as Delves and Hero Talents, that doesn't really add much to WoW as we know it.
