Master Detective Rain Code is not as complete and original like the Danganronpa trilogy, but it is, nonetheless, an enjoyable and well written point and click adventure that will appeal to all of the existing fans of Kazutaka Kodaka.

The Lara Croft Collection is a competent porting of the original titles, but it lacks any additional content that would've made this the definitive edition of these games.

AEW: Fight Forever is a good callback to some of the more arcade-styled wrestling games of the past, but it lacks much of the gameplay and content improvements added over the years by the same developers to their previous games.

Ghost Trick is both another brilliant little game from another era and another lazy remaster that doesn't add anything really new to it. It is still recommended to anyone who never played the original, yet it's a bit on the pricey and the short side.

Harmony: The Fall of Reverie is a visual novel with an unexpected depth, perhaps the Don't Nod's truly artistic videogame.

Crash Team Rumble's greatest achievement is also its greatest flaw: its own nature of a paid multiplayer game — without any single player content — forces fans to hope for a commercial success to have the right long term support.

We Love Katamari Reroll+ Royal Reverie is a competent remastered of an all-time classic that is as fun to play today as it was almost twenty years ago.

There are some technical issues yet to be solved in Park Beyond, but the game does a pretty decent job in giving you the control of your own theme park. Yet, the experience is very limited and can't fully deliver the vibe that creative players legitimately expected.

Spectacular, with an epic story and astonishing graphics: and yet, Final Fantasy XVI forgets what is really important for the series. It's impossibile to create a build and there's nothing important left for you to manage through the menus. Proper RPG options are gone, dungeons are just banal corridors, players are forced to play the entire game in easy mode and you can beat the game with literally no effort. There's a decent base for the future, but it's not enough to see a real rebirth for the saga.

Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life brings one of the most beloved episodes of the franchise back to life, with new events and a revamped (albeit still old) presentation, but the lack of new features keeps this remake away from greatness.

Company of Heroes 3 Console Edition is a good way to enjoy a RTS experience with the controller. The latest Relic Entertainment video game shows several compromises, but the missions give a lot of fun.

Aliens Dark Descent is a good real time strategy game set in the Alien universe and equipped with some winning ideas that are hard to overlook, such as the feature of permanent death. It's not gonna become the next XCOM, but it's a pretty enjoyable RTS nonetheless.

Unfortunately, Daydream: Forgotten Sorrow is not a good tribute to some more classic games, like Limbo or Little Nightmares, and fails to deliver a memorable adventure, feeling way more frustrating than it should.

The beauty of the Japanese countryside and its folklore fails to save Loop8, a game that remains imprisoned in its own vicious circle. It feels like a JRPG with dating sim and roguelike elements, but lacks souls and personality, becoming yet another forgettable Persona clone on the market. And that's a real shame, because it looked really promising.

Fall of Porcupine is a 2D graphic adventure game designed to be an honest and direct critique of society and the healthcare system. The game provides wonderful food for thought to learn how to completely appreciate life despite difficulty, offering emotional scenarios and dialogues, as well as a wide variety of entertaining mini-games. An additional outstanding representation of a "wholesome" adventure that stands out for its wonderful aesthetic direction and its distinctive and captivating atmosphere.

Layers of Fear is not a new game, nor a remake. it seems like a sort of definitive edition that includes the old games of the series and a new section that ties the two stories together. The passage to Unreal Engine 5 and the mild gameplay tweaks are not so relevant and add nothing to the game experience.

F1 23 improves in many aspects even though it doesn't excel in others. The return of Braking Point is highly appreciated. We also appreciate the changes in the driving model, as well as the improvements on the controller and steering wheel side. The increased force feedback gives hope for future developments. We are a bit disappointed with the technical department, which could definitely do more, especially on the new consoles. We are certain that these limitations are a consequence of the game being released on previous-generation consoles as well. Unfortunately, it's a compromise almost necessary to satisfy a wider user base. All in all, though, we are facing a game that always manages to achieve a good final result.

Dordogne is a good-looking narrative adventure that tells and extraordinarily ordinary familiar story, making you wonder about of all the time we waste far from our beloved ones.

MotoGP 23 surely is full of possibilities and activities for gamers who love bikes, but something in the driving system needs further improvements and a better balance.

Torchlight: Infinite fails to capture the spirit of the original series, offering a dull, repetitive gameplay loop that will appeal to very few people.

Like the single games when they were first released, the Etrian Odyssey Origins Collection is not a product for the masses: it's pricey (too much so), hard and very lengthy, but these are exactly the reasons why some old timer fan will appreciate it.

Amnesia: The Bunker introduces a brilliant gameplay with many new features for the series. It is a real survival horror with a great atmosphere and a superb concept. Too bad for the random encounters with the creature, often not well balanced.

Puzzle Bobble Everybubble! takes the serie back to form after some lackluster episodes, bringing new gameplay elements to the table and adding an addicting 4 player mode.

An intriguing post-apocalyptic adventure, Miasma Chronicles is set in a fascinating world, populated by some weird characters. Its combats could be a challenge, with some good tactical ideas, but at the end there are not so many choices to avoid the game over.

Monster Menu: The Scavenger's Cookbook is a dull dungeon crawler which fails to fully deliver on its premise.

Shattered Heaven captivates the players thanks to its hybrid gameplay. It's a card game with roguelike and rpg elements that are enough to feel interesting, but it gets repetitive way too soon during longest playing sessions.

Decarnation is heavily inspired by Mulholland Drive and Satoshi Kon's works. It's a great psychological horror with a rich story, but also a derivative game with too many gameplay limitations.

Diablo IV is a smooth-running action RPG with a beautiful gothic atmosphere and a fascinating open world, aimed even at those who have never touched a chapter of the Blizzard franchise before.
