Although Intersect proposal is extremely simple within the puzzle genre, only after playing several games we'll realize its actual addictive capabilities, which will keep us playing for hours.- Vandal

Bad Piggies twists the Angry Birds concept to make it unique, different and fun: creating devices. It will keep us playing for a ling time, trying to get all the stars and secrets. Rovio has promised free updates to improve it little by little, so Bad Piggies is indeed an app we have to recommend.- Vandal

A perfect example of how to make a remake. Treasure has achieved an update that faithfully respects the original game, but also adds enough improvements to become a really must-have game for the nostalgic gamers. Although its particular gameplay might turn off newcomer, they should give it a chance at least.- Vandal

This is easily the best game in the series and one of the most recommended buys of the launch portfolio of the PSVITA. It doesn't make the most of the console technical prowess nor uses imaginatively any of its touch control possibilities, but it is a puzzle game that fans of the genre will love for months.- Vandal

And we don't want to forget to mention one of the aspects we liked the most: the soundtrack. It was already a standout feature in the original game, and in this case, the scores in the altered levels have been significantly transformed, offering us compositions that shine once again, in this case with a more mysterious and cosmic (sometimes even dark) approach. Without a doubt, it's a very well-executed expansion that adds even more value to a video game that is established as one of the best Kirby games ever made... probably the best.- Vandal

TEVI is a challenging metroidvania game full of magic, humor and rhetoric that will make you forget about the clock and get completely immersed in the world of Az1. It has a modern pixel art design, a selection of difficulty levels, and a gameplay and level design that go hand in hand at all times. However, it lacks subtitles in more languages and some areas are not very clear to explore.- Vandal

Ys X: Proud Nordics delivers the definitive experience, boasting a masterful Spanish translation, significantly improved graphics, and enhanced combat fluidity. While new content seamlessly integrates into the narrative, its full-price release without an upgrade path for original owners is a notable misstep. Despite this, and some lingering narrative pacing issues, it stands as the ideal entry point to the franchise.- Vandal

Sumerian Six revitalizes the real-time tactical stealth genre with a creative supernatural WWII setting. It delivers deep, satisfying gameplay where freedom and character powers shine. While the console controls are surprisingly fluid, the experience is slightly marred by occasional AI lapses and predictable level sequences. It remains a polished, accessible must-play for strategy fans.- Vandal

We have liked Resistance 3 a lot and consider it the best entry in the series. Although the campaign doesn't mantain the same level of engagement through the whole story, it is very enjoyable, varied and full of intense moments. The game makes a great use of sci-fy weapons to create interesting situations, and its online multiplayer has a lot of options. One of the best shooters of the year.- Vandal

Unfortunately, certain failures in the narrative, in its structure and in the design of levels, with disappointingly short and simple dungeons, prevent it from achieving the excellence it was striving for, which does not mean that it's not a totally recommendable product for any fan of the genre who misses the more classic conventions with a touch of modernity.- Vandal

This year’s installment refines existing mechanics rather than revolutionizing the series, introducing improvements mainly in game modes, such as the roguelike-inspired Diamond Quest and a revamped Diamond Dynasty. While the absence of last-gen versions hasn’t resulted in a major visual upgrade, animations and physics have been enhanced. However, the lack of localization remains a barrier for non-English-speaking players.- Vandal
