Dino Dini's Kick Off Revival is a rushed alpha version of a retro football game, that doesn't do justice to either the franchise or its creator: if you have the itch to play one of the best arcade recreation of your favourite sport, go back to the original or play Dino Dini's Soccer on SNES or MegaDrive. They're both much better.

With some scenario problems and a flat evolution of characters, Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness succeeds in being both fun and dynamic. A fun that, unfortunately, lasts less than other JRPGs do.

INSIDE is a top quality product that will let you enjoy a great journey, as amazing as overwhelming, where the excellent visual language drawn by Playdead is the key feature making the story absolutely special. INSIDE is the umpteenth piece of proof that an actually "different" game can be crafted with simple and functional ideas, with neither cut-scenes misuse nor fancy narrative techniques. Even the poor longevity get overshadowed: INSIDE offers an experience that only asks to be lived, not for the quantity but for the high quality of its content.

The Techomancer is a good attempt, but is unable to renew the genre. Because of movements that are too wooden and poor fluidity, the gameplay makes you easily bored and can't amuse as it should do. Mars is made well, it's actually huge, but to be able to visit all of it, you will need plenty of patience.

EPΘCH manages to combine mechanics belonging to different genres, creating an extremely functional result, partially ruined by some problems.

The biggest problem with Scrap Garden is that the game could've been so much better. The music is enjoyable and the atmosphere is pretty interesting, but some annoying bugs and boring puzzles ruin that, and no cute character can make that right.

Atelier Sophie is the perfect definition of an atypic JRPG, with a strong Japanese art style, a narration full of dialogues, a limited battle-system and a linear development of the characters.

Raiden V is a top old-school shmup, enriched by excellent gameplay features, great calibration and perfect rhythm. In the background of this pleasant scene, a notable work was done with the sound as well. Unfortunately the artistic direction doesn't look wholly brilliant and considerable extras are missing. However Raiden V stands as an absolutely recommended purchase to the vertical scroller shoot 'em' up lovers, very hard to master but as much fulfilling as few other games are.

Elite Dangerous: Horizons is a no-brainer for everyone who loves space and simulations, but, at the moment, it is a better option for the new players than it is for the ones who already own the base game. Some months of free updates and patches should do, but now planetary landings are not enough, considering the price tag.

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 story and setting are a bit flat, and it's hard to tell when the friendly fire is going to strike your fighters, but, aside from this, Grand Kingdom offers deep strategic gameplay that will surely be enjoyed by anyone who has ever had interest in turn-based strategy games.

It's not perfect by any means, and the overall quality is not on par with the core Megaman franchise, but still the new work from Inafune-san mixes action, platforming and difficulty spikes in a balanced way, enough to win a recommendation.

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

The game has tons of options and modes, and it offers plenty of bikes and riders from the past. Still, the game has some flaws in in the gameplay, especially if you look at the AI and at the physics.

Apocalypse is a classic and funny beat'em up where "sexual humorism" and absurdities will put a smile on player's face.

Power & Revolution, also known as Geo-Political Simulator 4, is a unique game that allows the player to be the head of state of one of more than 150 countries. Unfortunately, like the previous versions, it has an awkward interface and has many bugs.

If you are willing to put down any expectation about a crossover between two of your favourite franchises, then Tokyo Mirage Sessions FE will most probably win you over, with its refreshing setting, solid combat system and great character customization.

Sega developed another Olympic game without taking any risks, giving the player a compilation of minigames that can only be fun for a couple of afternoons if you have friends to share it with. Otherwise, there are better party games in the Wii U catalogue.

There's no need to reinvent the wheel when all your fan are asking for just another cute platformer: this is what Hal laboratories must have thought, and the new Kirby adventure is charming and relaxing as the previous ones.

Trials of the Blood Dragon is a game that can surprise you many times. The level of madness of the tracks can entertain you for 5 or 6 hours. If you are fan of the saga, this episode can't miss a place in your collection. In case you're beginners the low price can give you the right occasion to discover the brand.

A nice strategic game, with a challenging gameplay and a pleasant narrative. The control system is a bit sloppy, but the overall experience is worth the price.

The experience offered by Ghrian does not convince, afflicted as it is by far too many problems.

Wanda is a simple puzzle game, with an adventurous soul, that tells you the touching story of two small robots in a post-apocalyptic world. Unfortunately, the title is technically embarrassing, often boring and with a too slow storytelling that fails in reaching your heart. The music of the game is really great, but it's the only great aspect in a product with countless flaws.

Mirror's Edge Catalyst fully improves the concept of the first chapter by enormously expanding the setting and deepening the characters' and the world's story.

Skylanders Battlecast can grant many hours of entertainment to kids and their parents. The gameplay is more simple and accessible than the one of other games already known in the genre. Sometimes the randomness of the core of the mechanics influences the matches too much.

Hearts of Iron IV has learned from its past and, thanks to his experience in strategy games, Paradox Interactive has created one of the best wargames set in the World War II.
