It’s not an amazing adventure game, but it’s not even the horrible misstep that some were expecting. It’s a decent kid-oriented game, with more puzzles and interactivity than usual for a Telltale game, and some genuinely fun moments. Let’s see where this goes.

You could consider it as slightly more than a 3DS tech demo, perfect for the launch of the new hardware, but in need of way ore content to fully satisfy the player.

The Coma: Recut is full of cliches. If you've already played White Day, you can imagine what kind of survival horror it is: you'll find an annoying killer that will follow you throughout the game, you have to find the right item to go on, you'll suffer from the backtracking and you'll have to run away from dangers of hide yourself. Repeat for three or four hours and that's it.

Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts excels in the art of sniping, but doesn't offer anything else.

With 3rd Birthday Parasite Eve's franchise collapses, losing many attributes that granted it success in the past, proposing story, characters and enemies without personality, and a brand new action-oriented gameplay system, although too afflicted by several issues.

No Man's Sky is a huge universe created by Hello Games, and gives players the opportunity to explore and live it the way they want. It isn't a game for everyone, maybe only few will enjoy it for what it truly is, and it comes also with some technical issues, due probably to its procedural essence. There is no specific purpose in No Man's Sky, every player will find his own and will simply enjoy the journey, not the destination.

The new control system is promising but it needs some more improvement and requires a good amount of time to be mastered properly, which could discourage casual players.

Quotation forthcoming.

A simple but fun puzzle game based on symmetry, developed by Gamera Interactive (Unit 4 and the highly anticipated Alaloth: Champions of the Four Kingdoms). Not bad at all.

Tennis Manager 2022 is a first step through the right direction, but it needs a lot of improvements to reach the status of a must have game.

PS5 - appearances—for those who seek in video games not just entertainment, but a chance to journey through, understand, and, in a way, forge themselves. Imperfect and a bit rough around the edges at first glance, yet incredibly solid and deep, MercurySteam’s latest project is further proof that you don’t need a massive budget to create something truly special.

Detective Pikachu moves far away from the main series, boasting a strong narrative and a charismatic protagonist that bears little to none resemblance to the Pikachu we're familiar with. In spite of its faults, this first experiment managed to entertain us, and we can't wait to get some new adventures with this coffee-lover detective.

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle is a great fighting game, featuring an amazing roster, well-implemented mechanics and the same charm of the fascinating manga by Araki. Its only weaknesses lie in the field of content, which is particularly noticeable in the simplistic story mode.

Nothing was done in this Hella Remastered to help Shadows of the Damned in the aspects in which the game underperformed at launch, thirteen years ago. Hence, the game has today the same qualities and the same problems of yesterday, but the latter weigh down the experience much more than before.

With ScreamRide it's fun from the first minute with this formula of exaggerations, laughter, destruction and crazy speeds. The three main modes are quite bizarre but fun, at least for a few hours; then begins to glimpse a bit of repetitiveness that can be partially avoided thanks to the excellent editor.

Fairy Fencer F: Advent Dark Force is a classic tactical J-RPG, with all the usual pros and cons of this kind of title. Despite the nice style, and the remarkable drawings that will accompany you in your travel in the world of the Furies, the dungeons realization and the characters 3D models are so poor they'll make you cry. The combat system is solid, and the story is enjoyable. Unfortunately, the repetitive mechanics will bore you in a few hours. In the end, a fair Hyperdimension Neptunia clone, just for real fans of the genre.

The Diofield Chronicle is a low-stakes bet from Square Enix and Lancarse: a new IP that tries something new in a very conservative genre. We liked the end result, even if far from perfect, and we'd like also to see a better funded sequel in two or three years.

There's a new big case to solve in Baker Street, with so many puzzles but a lot of boring action sequences. A missed opportunity to create the best Sherlock Holmes game, despite the open world feature.

The real strength of Ridge Racer Unbounded is its Track Editor. Gameplay, options and cars are inspired by other racing brands, without bringing anything new to the arcade racing genre.

BUTCHER doesn't innovate the videogame market, but it's fun and should be enjoyed by gamers who are searching for a nice challenge.

A simple upgrade of FIFA 18 on Switch. There's a lack of modes due to the absence of the Frostbyte Engine.

Dragon Quest III is certainly the best of the original trilogy, thanks to a compelling story and an improved gameplay.

Monster Energy Supercross 25 has truly won us over this year. While there are still some details that could use refinement in the future, the game arrives in great shape and shows strong potential for further improvement. The overhaul of the physics and dynamic system, for example, offers gameplay that feels well-suited to the current generation—though there’s still room for some visual enhancements. The career mode isn’t anything groundbreaking, but it does its job and allows us to enjoy the solid racing experience on track. On the other hand, the customization section really stands out, especially thanks to the new livery editor, which rounds out an already well-developed feature set. AI improvements are noticeable and welcome, but not yet fully satisfying—this may well be the area where the development team needs to focus most in future iterations.

Despite the not-so-bad first impressions, Bionic Commando is a disappointing game. Linearity is not a drawback by itself, it's more about the way it has been pushed into the game, which often delivers loads of frustration... Long and frequent loading times, lousy A.I., and inaccurate controls just confirm that this is not a Capcom game, but more a Grin one. Let's hope Capcom itself will be on the next RAD Spencer incarnation: all it needs is some polish.

Dice Legacy is an interesting take on city builders, but not every aspect of the game falls into place.

Simply put, Armageddon doesn't deliver the same spectacular, over the top entertainment of its predecessor. The free roaming, completely stripped from this sequel, was clearly and important piece of the puzzle. As a simple third person shooter, the game doesn't work that well anymore, and you'll surely find much better products in the same genre.

After a long wait, we were expecting something more from Dead State. Yet the game manages to intrigue for its moral aspects, for the pleasure of exploration and for the successful balance between some harsh old-school elements and an apocalyptic world with many resources, which greatly helps to avoid frustration of the very first hours.

The Crackdown brand hasn't aged well. Three years in the making don't justify the complete lack of innovation, on top of it every old drawback is still there: repetitive, lacking even a simple storytelling, occasionally bugged. Even the four player coop doesn't live up to the expectations. If you played (and loved) the first one there are no reasons whatsoever to buy this sequel. On the other hand, if you don't know the brand and can live with dated graphics and obsolete gameplay mechanics, it can still be funny.

Sonic Frontiers is the best Sonic 3D game to date.

Even if sold stand alone on consoles, The Sims 3 Pets is just an expansion pack: it won't revolutionize the gameplay of the third chapter, and some gameplay feature aren't deep as we would've liked. Add bugs and missing optimization on consoles, and what you have is a title suited just for sims maniac.

If only Endgame Studios opted for a level of difficulty a bit less prohibitive, Fractured Soul could find a much wider audience.

It's most suitable for newbies, as the veterans will miss all the advanced options. The first will anyway find some good fun in this lighter version of the historic RTS.

Monster Jam Showdown is a highly entertaining and accessible title. The arcade-style driving system appeals to a wide audience without sacrificing fun or content—there are plenty of game modes and a good variety of trucks and customization options. Milestone's offering is enjoyable, convincing, and fun.

Layer of Fear 2 is the dramatic descent into the lost mind of an actor that has to find himself, a compelling story about violence and abuse.

Crossing Souls is a love letter to the '80s. It's an excellent, albeit clunky, nostalgia rollercoaster.

Last Stop tells a weak story where your choices doesn't really matter, with minimal and guided interactions.

In an intriguing mix of different gameplay mechanics, that entwines visual novels and shoot'em up, Yurukill: The Calumniation Games is a pretty unique experience, that captivates you with its story and makes you stay with its ability to keep things interesting and engaging.

LEGO Horizon Adventures is an adventure that knows how to entertain, managing the difficult task of pleasing both fans of Aloy and enthusiasts of brick-based games.

Fast to learn and fun to play, and sold at a very inviting price. Add a wild west appeal to that, and what you get is a big deal. Might be considered as a mere Team Fortress 2 clone, still it delivers some true funny matches.

A pretty cool experience which ends a day, enhanced by new graphics, more flowing animation and the new Survival mode.

An arcadish soccer game, sometimes funny. If you like your soccer played on the Wii, you'd still better stick with Pro Evolution Soccer, far deeper and more satisfying.

Under The Waves is just a missed opportunity and it's a real shame, because its environmental message would still deserve to be listened to.

FIFA 12 is an updated version of FIFA 11, with several adjustments within the single player content, but it completely lacks any online mode, one of the last edition's highlights.

If you do not mind waiting 20 or 30 minutes to repair your car after a race or if you love the freemium formula with its sneaky purchases system, Real Racing 3 is simply the best racing-simulation game available today on App Store.

Resident Evil: Revelations is a great and enjoyable survival horror. Perhaps, the PS4/One version isn’t exactly the best way to go, but it’s certainly a great porting of a game made in 2012.

Looking for something new or distinctive in Demon Gaze would be a waste of time. Nonetheless, the latest effort from Kadokawa games is a decent dungeon crawler, featuring many dungeons and many more monsters. This could be the first step of a brand new saga.

Batman: The Brave and The Bold is a comic and cartoon-based game for Nintendo Wii. It features a vintage style that perfectly fits the spirit of the old-style Dark Knight, but the gameplay lacks in variety and depth.

This PC release contains all the DLCs, except the last one. The conversion is not so brilliant and many technical issues still persist. Still, the game offers many hours of insane and funny gameplay.

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 on Wii is a decent FPS, good enough to wait 'til Nintendo's next generation console is out.

A real tribute to the fans of the saga of Sega Rally. Good graphics and a selection of funny game modes make it worth all of its price.

Just Dance 2021 just keeps doing the good things that the previous titles of the series were doing, without offering many innovations.

Quotation forthcoming.

It's definitely not Mario Kart (but neither Crash Team Racing, for that matter), but Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3 Slime Speedway is enjoyable for Nicktoons' fans.

Interacting with your monkey-cat in the virtual mirror of your television can be really funny. Sadly the title suffers from some interface issues, the Playstation Eye just isn't as fast and responsive as it should be for some parts of the game, but this is balanced by the great drawing sessions. Eye Pet is a perfect game for kids and a funny application for people above 13 that will enjoy it for a while.

Code Vein is an interesting mix between a soulslike and an anime, but fails to stay close to the top of the genre.

There's fun to be had with this one, especially for the great characters and enjoyable storyline. Sadly, there's some lack of polish in the annoying in-game camera and the bad lock on enemies, and graphics don't stand out as they did in the past titles.

People will appreciate it for the nostalgic memories that can evoke, while newcomers will still find this game modern and appealing.

It has addictive gameplay and strange and trippy visuals that make it unique, but it's short. Too short. The survival mode is not much of an added content, even for enthusiastic players.

Elex II retains both the best qualities and the worst problems of its predecessor, but it's overall a better game. Still, it's hard to recommend it without qualms to anyone who hasn't played a Piranha Bytes RPG before.

This final review of Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn has been a roller coaster of conflicting feelings. The end result is of decent quality, despite various structural limitations, and it manages to shape a balanced experience with a substantial amount of content. While it certainly doesn’t stand out in terms of character or personality, and numerous narrative questions remain unanswered, the accessible and somewhat enjoyable gameplay compensates for these shortcomings just enough. However, it does leave a bit of a bitter aftertaste.

It's both a light and funny action game and a wasted chance to make something more due to an overall unpolished job. Strongly consider it if you love Ultramarines though, since they get a great depiction.

TT Isle Of Man: Ride on the Edge 3 is moving in the right direction, but it still lacks many details. The foundation is good, the location is excellent, but the driving model and attention to detail need to be revised. Although the new development team is heading in the right direction to deliver a solid simulation system, there are still many steps to take to catch up with competitors. The introduction of an open world is highly commendable, but more needs to be done, more needs to be offered. The game is enjoyable to play but may not be satisfying for experienced players and is not that straightforward for newcomers. However, we are confident that this can be the beginning of a very interesting journey for the new concept of the TT Isle Of Man series.

Switch Galaxy Ultra is the PS4 version of one of the dozen of endless runner that you've stumbled upon in the last three years on your smartphone or tablet. Nothing more, nothing less.

Monster Rancher 1 & 2 DX will be a joy for more nostalgic players, but it's unlikely that it will manage to captivate a wider audience.

An unusual managerial, somehow confined by its own concept. Public transport can be fun in the beginning, but it gets old pretty soon. It just depends on what you're interested in, and surely it's a well developed simulation.

Degrees of Separation is difficult to judge. It features a traditional side-scrolling progression with hand-drawn graphic, but it’s somehow limited by its own design. This brings to a lot of puzzles that are actually frustrating instead of brain-ticklers. But this game also features an incredible fairy-tale atmosphere together with a great soundtrack. And are these features that save it from the abyss. But only from it.

Worms Rumble is an interesting try to renew Worms with a bit of hybridation from battle royales, but it lacks depths and, if the game will not be appropriately supported in the future, it may leave a bitter taste both for Worms' and for battle royale' lovers alike.

Hell Yeah! The wrath of the dead rabbit is a title that strives to be unique, but it does so only in part. The style of the game is definitely catchy, thanks to the irresistible humor and the great audiovisual impact. But if you delete these purely formal aspects, it turns out to be a platform with obvious shortcomings.

The second DLC is a step back and Hammered is a less interesting villain with a very poor characterization. We hope that Silver Lining, at least, will be a perfect finale.

Zombie Army Trilogy on Nintendo Switch is fun and easy to control, but lacks a bit of content and playability.

Suitable just for multiplayer users, as if played offline it won't be able to deliver even a third of it potential. That, among other minor issues, make this a somehow wasted chance.

Minecraft Dungeons is a fresh and fast-paced dungeon crawler experience, even though a little too tiny to appeal on the long run.

Despite some disappointing enigmas, Secret Files 2 Puritas Cordis is a good graphical adventure, thanks to a very well developed narrative structure. Not as good as its predecessor, it still deserves consideration from every graphical adventures player.

Gods Will Fall has terrific gameplay ideas, but the graphics and some technical hiccups hold back its quality.

An expansion that certainly enriches the Sims experience, but not in a particularly impactful way.

Yonder: The The Cloud Catcher Chronicles is a peaceful and relaxing game, where you have to help the citizens of Gemea about everything: good atmosphere but it is a fetch quest-festival.

Teslagrad 2 is a game that is worth trying out for fans of metroidvanias — but you have to accept that everything can end suddenly right when it's getting to the best part.

Fe is a cute platformer that you won't remember.

The mission of the Rabbids to reach the moon can be said also on the success of the Nintendo handheld. Recommended for those who love this series and wants something new compared to the classic mini-games of all time and who want a puzzle game proposing something different from the usual piece that falls vertically.

Quotation forthcoming.

Nobunaga's Ambition: Taishi is a turn-based grand strategy role-playing simulation video game which comes out in the 35th anniversary of this series. Maybe this could be one of the reasons why it (pitifully) maintained most of its main features, including many faults that could have been removed or improved.

Contra Operation Galuga is a welcomed return to form for this classic franchise, but it is also a 101 scrolling shooter that takes very few risks. We sincerely hope to see Wayforward again at work with this brand and to see them unleash their talent without restraints.

The Golf Club is a pretty good golf game, that delivers a brilliant challenge that relies entirely on the multiplayer. It does not have a career mode, or a progression system of your own character, but this is not some sort of lack; this is not your regular Tiger Woods game: it's just another type of title.

It may seem a bad clone of Gunpoint, but it's not, it's way more focused on the fighting aspect, and uses it's mechanics in pretty interesting ways. The lack of variety is basically its main problem, but it remains a decent game.

Rick and Morty: Virtual Rick-Ality fails short due to its movement-related problems and its limited gameplay.

No Straight Roads is an outstanding action game with some rhythm game mechanics, filled with love for the music and an amazing art direction.

Haunt is a fun game, dedicated, however, only to a young audience.

Warriors Orochi 3 is definitely one of the best Musou action games out there. If you like the genre it's a must have. On the contrary, if you can't stand a repetitive campaign and simple fighting mechanics, this title won't change your mind.

Road 96 Mile 0 is a choir that sings for free speech, even if it lacks that sense of adventure that made the original game unique and unforgettable.

The Legend of Kage 2 starts at the point the first game left us 24 years ago. The choice of sticking to the origins of series could convince new users to try the game, but old time players could be disappointed. It's fun, but you have to be a real fan of two-dimensional-action game to decide to buy it.

Rogue Trooper: Quartz Zone Massacre is fun and replayable. Overall quality is good, but it lacks in innovations and online functions. A good game, but not perfect. Any Wii owner should consider this game: it could be a surprise or a delusion at the same time.

Every Need for Speed fan will be let down by the awful driving model and the lack of serious innovation of this arcade racing game. better avoid it unless you're looking for a simple (and simplicistic) four wheels game.

A fast and colourful arcade wrestling game, with a good roster and deep control system; on the other hand, the title is pretty short and too much similar to the previous wrestling games on PSP.

A good experiment, that lacks content. With its more accessible gameplay, and some intelligent changes to the system, it may become a success in the future.

DuckTales Remastered is exactly what the fans of the original product would have dreamed of. Despite its age, the game proves to be still pretty damn fun to play. The price, though, is definitely a bit high.

Road Not Taken is a good game, puzzle game fans will definitely appreciate it. We loved the procedurally-generated levels and the great variety of enemies, but the management of the difficulty is not perfect. Spry Fox is certainly a brilliant developer.

A well dropped strategic with original but extremely peculiar ideas, best suited to all the fans of chess and board games rather than those of turn-based games.

Dungeons 2 is a most successful RTS/management game than its lackluster predecessor, but is not yet able to approach to the same levels of Dungeon Keeper (and after all it was obvious). This Realmforge Studios hybrid works in the management part (funny and quite deep), but loses points when it tries to be Warcraft III and offers too simplistic RTS sections with little personality.
