Call of the Elder Gods is, ultimately, a solid sequel—bigger, more varied, more complex, and more ambitious than Call of the Sea. Its puzzles are superior and more elaborate, its world offers greater scope, and its graphics are beautiful. At the same time, that ambition comes at a cost: a less streamlined story that is, at times, overly convoluted. Furthermore, the difficulty level can prove to be a significant hurdle for those unaccustomed to such demanding puzzle adventures. Its hint system—implemented with good intentions—also presents a dangerous temptation in these times when our patience is increasingly thin. It is a remarkable title for puzzle enthusiasts, yet one that demands patience, keen observation, and a willingness to really rack your brain.

The well-known birds also know how to drive karts. Lots of fun and beautiful graphics –even though with a free-to-play based model– are the companions of a solid playable experience that keeps expanding its supremacy.

Anima. Crossing: HD delivers an interesting concept, different from the main series, but still charming, deep and fun.

FEAR 2: Project Origin leaves us quite an uneven sensation. On one hand it has offered us truly spectacular and full of tension moments, very different from the ones which other games in the genre offer. Moreover, its carefully made atmosphere, fueled by the solid graphics engine developed by Monolith, make the immersion sensation total. The problem is that although FEAR 2 knows what makes itself stand out from the other shooters, it insists on offering quite generic moments during most of the game, and, worse indeed, it's not quite polished.

Madison is an interesting combination of old-school and modern horror, and even with its issues, manages to become a scary but fun adventure.

Despite lacking originality and charismatic characters, this spiritual successor to Command & Conquer offers varied missions, accessible yet satisfying strategy gameplay, and strong audiovisual design that make it a must-play for RTS fans.

Even though it's a "minor" Assassin's, it takes the best of the fourth episode and creates a very interesting experience. The visuals could have seen a bigger improvement, but still it's a good adaptation.

Mordhau is like a spiritual successor of Chivalry. Its cleverly-designed combat system and its Frontline mode will give you many, many hours of fun.

Ultimately, this Spore expansion breaks the tradition of offering more of the same, allowing us to freely design any king of adventure, which is something very valuable.

A great homage to classic survival horror with strong puzzles, effective atmosphere, and creative art design, though it's held back by performance issues and technical limitations.

This is a good sequel which will please those who enjoyed the first game, and also those looking for a game of intense action, with a classic bidimensional, but spectacular, style.

RIVE is a great 2D shoot 'em up, which is challenging and fun. It's a little bit short, but intense nonetheless.

It has some aspects that should have been polished, but it's unique and interesting, and definitely recommended.

This is a great surprise, a game that within its simplicity, manages to be fun and never gets boring. What else can we ask for?

This game offers a deep RPG/dungeon crawler experience that adapts to the player. It isn't perfect, but it is a nice surprise for the PSVita.

This new adventure retains the core of the series while expanding its possibilities with an open world and action sequences, something that feels like a double-edged sword.

One of the oldest franchises in gaming is back with a compilation that offers hours of old-school fun.

The Procession to Chavalry catches you through its fantastic and original art style (no pun intended), but even under its appearance there is an interesting point & click adventure.

GNOG is an amazing game, that makes you discover feel like a kid. It's short, yes, but we think it's worth it... in VR. If you're planning on playing on a regular screen, the experience isn't that immersive, but it still is original and beautiful.

A must-have for golf fans, but it will be too of a simulation for novice players, as it doesn't include a comprehensive tutorial for those who have no experience in previous games.

With a simple but funny sense of humor, the game achieves in creating a hilarious atmosphere that few games have tried to recreate, and even few with such success.

A very recommendable adaptation of the classic that still plays well, even though it doesn't look that good nowadays.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is, for now, a big yes. After a 'Modern Warfare 2' that was a step backwards and a 'Modern Warfare 3' that clearly had a DLC flavour, Treyarch is stepping strong with this heir to 'Black Ops Cold War', with a campaign rich in references and with very varied and attractive levels that knows how to give the player what they ask for. The multiplayer and the zombies are more than fine at launch, but in a few months the game will be a different story and will be very different with the additions and changes that are made, hopefully always for the better and not spoil anything.

Hayabusa is back with a correct remaster that could have been so much better, but at least allows us to enjoy this great series once again on modern hardware.

PARANORMASIGHT: The Mermaid's Curse delivers a captivating visual novel experience, boasting a magnificent art style, engrossing story, and charming characters. Its refined mechanics and engaging minigames offer a fresh take on the formula, although narrative pacing occasionally falters. However, the complete absence of Spanish translation and voice acting remains a significant drawback, regrettably diminishing accessibility for many.

The most important thing is that it manages to bring some of the feelings of the movie, an important achievement for a mobile game. If you like the theme, it probably deserves a try.

We’ve had such a good time playing Party Animals with friends. It definitely needs more content and new ideas, but even now it’s a great party game that anyone can play and have a great time.

This is a great way to enjoy two quite obscure games, as unique as their creator, Goichi Suda. It was also a great chance to offer a translation to more languages that unfortunately was missed.

This is a good example of how to bring a movie to consoles. In terms of gameplay, it's quite solid. Visually, it fulfills with honor. Raven Software has proven it can bring Marvel licenses to a good end.

A neon-drenched, brutally challenging side-scroller that blends precise platforming with intense combat and strategic thinking; while its visual flair and dual-character mechanics shine, the wall-sticking feature can occasionally hinder the otherwise relentless pace.

Vampire Survivors is this popular for a reason: its mechanics are almost perfect and even in its simplicity feels fantastic to play.

Yakuza 3 isn’t the best entry, but it’s great to have it available on newer systems with all the content we previously lost in the West. If you like the series, don’t miss it out.

Dragon's Dogma was never prefect, but it was good enough to overcome all its shortcomings and have us playing for hours and hours. This PC version is also the best way to enjoy it.

A very interesting title that blends succesfully third-person action with tower defense. Its humour, excellent level design and replayability make it a good choice for those looking for a different game.

Laser League is a great game, with a very original and fun concept and greatly executed. It needs new modes, but if the community remains active we’re sure they’ll arrive.

Windjammers 2 is a more than worthy successor to the classic, which knows how to keep the experience intact 25 years later. Much like what Dotemu did with Streets of Rage 4, Windjammers 2 takes the great gameplay of the original and improves it, with more possibilities and depth, but in a way that still feels classic.

Quotation forthcoming.

The worst thing about this sequel is that it's no longer surprising. But that's good news, because it means it is still a great RPG. 

Chimes makes itself lovable for its simplicity, its concept and above all the relaxed atmosphere surrounding it, following other "quiet" games like flOw or Osmos.

Despite lacking originality and imitating other games, the highlighted positives include well-designed levels, thoughtful backtracking, satisfying action, impressive pixel art, and noteworthy boss battles, while the negatives encompass a lack of distinct personality, issues with storytelling, design decisions, and readability problems in the environments. Overall, it presents an entertaining and enjoyable adventure within the "soulsvania" genre.

Very simple but yet very deep, this is a great puzzle game that has more to offer than it looks. Very recommended, especially if you can play it for free with PS Plus.

It feels a little bit rushed, but it's a great closure for one of the most beautiful, unique, well-written, moving and special stories we've lived in a video game in the last few years.

This is one of the most innovative shoot 'em ups we've played in a while. Maybe it lacks a better level design, but the concept is good, the execution is good and it's very addictive.

Quotation forthcoming.

Variety is the word that defines Nier the best. Variety of genres and game styles which compose an epic, fantastic and full of action adventure.

Yakuza 3 Kiwami & Dark Ties delivers essential gameplay updates for Kiryu's classic adventure, ensuring an entertaining experience. Although the Dark Ties expansion is a welcome addition to Mine's story, it proves brief and includes some padded content.

Obsidian proves once again they know how to make RPGs, and if you're a fan of the classic ones, you can't miss this one.

This is a great game built upon a solid narrative that carries the weight of the adventure.

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.

However, the lack of localization remains a barrier for non-English-speaking players.

Shadow Complex still is an amazing metroidvania, and even though visually it hasn't aged particularly well, the core experience remains as engaging as it was back on Xbox 360.

It needs to be polished, but Rogue Stormers is already a great game as it is. If you're looking for old-school action, this is a good choice.
