The game is not inherently a bad project, and the fun it provides is not (paradoxically) rubbish. However, to overcome the mediocrity limit, the game needs more variability in objects, as repeating the same procedures and desperately assembling boxes leads the fun curve to a steep downward slope.

FZ: Formation Z successfully modernizes a forgotten classic while staying true to its original spirit. Its fun transformation mechanics, satisfying action, and replayability shine, though outdated design choices like the lack of saving and limited progression variety make it feel stuck between nostalgia and modern expectations.

Bubsy 4D is a charming but rough-around-the-edges platformer that offers accessible gameplay, enjoyable exploration, and plenty of collectibles. While technical issues, weak level aesthetics, and dated design hold it back, it remains a pleasant adventure for younger players and nostalgic Bubsy fans.

Mixtape is not a strong game in the traditional sense, as its interactivity is limited and most of its short chapters require very little effort from the player. However, it works much better as a nostalgic cinematic experience about growing up, friendship, music and the bittersweet feeling of leaving youth behind. Its 90s atmosphere, emotional tone and carefully chosen soundtrack carry the whole journey, even when the gameplay itself remains very simple.

The ship voyage is connected to a deeply personal story that will touch you and definitely won't leave you cold. It's a shame, though, that the game uses outdated mechanics and graphics.

Directive 8020 is one of the better parts of The Dark Pictures Anthology, but don't expect it to be a major departure from the series or anything else. It has an interesting setting, an impressive atmosphere, good characters, and a functional story foundation, which creates the basis for a quality interactive adventure game, but at the same time it suffers from perhaps too forced and repetitive gameplay elements.

A military veteran, ex-cop and now a P.I. – Jack Pepper seemingly lived through it all and yet his biggest catch is on the horizon.

Do you have what it takes to put all the evidence on the board?

007 First Light is a strong new beginning for James Bond in games, combining a deep origin story, varied missions, stealth, action, excellent hand-to-hand combat, precise shooting, impressive visuals and classic Bond atmosphere. A few slower sections and the lack of a body-hiding mechanic are minor issues in an otherwise excellent spy adventure.

Invincible VS delivers a brutal, fast-paced 3v3 fighting system with strong mechanics and a stylish presentation faithful to the series. However, its very short story mode, uneven character balance, and weak onboarding for newcomers hold it back. A solid foundation that feels like it still needs more time to fully evolve.

Yoshi and the Mysterious Book may look like another spin-off title, but it features new forms of gameplay. The unfolding levels and gameplay discovery are well worth it and it will please platformer fans as well as players open to experimenting within the genre.
