It might not be outstanding, but it is very good at everything it does. RPG fans have one of the very first great choices of the year, no matter what platform you go for.

A competent game that shows VITA is able to manage shooting games as if it was a console. If you are looking for multiplayer action you will find one that works perfectly, with solid graphics, good atmosphere and plenty of possibilities. Its only flaw is the absence of any original features, and a less-than-charming story.

The Battle of the Pacific, the war between the American and the Japanese, have spawned a videogame full of action and strategy where everything is well balanced, observing the original gameplay and improving the weak points of the first game.

While very different from the original, this sequel still knows how to offer a challenging and addictive roguelite experience that knows how to push us to the limit.

This is overall the same game from last year, but with another main character. This change allows for new moves, new motivations for the main character and the addition of the camera, which changes and improves gameplay, but the content is almost the same, and it is difficult to recommend the game for those who already have the original, except for hardcore fans.

It's not a system-seller, but definitely one of those addictive retro-ish games you enjoy playing.

This is an excellent way of bringing back an amazing game, a beautiful audiovisual remake that still plays great. And being a 30-year-old game, it's certainly an achievement.

A fun sequel, full of great ideas and changes in gameplay, that repeates the success of the first game. A simple and addictive aplication recommended for those who played the first one or newcomers who want to try something fun.

These are three great games you shouldn't miss, so this is a great opportunity if you missed them before. The port could have been better, but having the Sly trilogy on a handheld is, indeed, tempting.

If you love classic FPS, give Boltgun a try. It’s a love letter to the genre with beautiful graphics and intense shootings.

This is overall the same game from last year, but with another main character. This change allows for new moves, new motivations for the main character and the addition of the camera, which changes and improves gameplay, but the content is almost the same, and it is difficult to recommend the game for those who already have the original, except for hardcore fans.

A fantastic investigation-drive game that, even with the limitations of an independent studio, manages to deliver a compelling adventure from beginning to end.

FIFA 22 feels like the foundation for the future of FIFA. It still a great game, with no big improvements, but very fun to play.

Men of War impresses once being played. The variety of options make Men of War a title worth noting, and its graphical quality and photography work is very praiseworthy.

This is an excellent management game that brings back and updates the old-school gameplay we all love to make it as fun and exciting as it was a few years ago.

A great game and a better remake, but still as short as the original.

Ten years have taken its toll on Kingdom Hearts, but the foundations have aged well. If you can't wait for Kingdom Hearts III, this can be a great way of reliving the origins of the franchise.

Yes, it is quite "similar" to some other games out there. However it's almost infinite, full of possibilities and very fun. Might be hard to play on small devices, but being free we think it deserves a try.

This is an adventure with a 32-bit era vibe, something that we wish we had more often. Yes, it’s not perfect, but if you miss those games from a simpler time, Pumpkin Jack is a good option.

Not many new features in yet another annual installment of a sports title.

This game builds a very solid base where one of the most fun and addictive games for iOS devices can grow from.

Battle for Neighborville is a really solid shooter, deeper and more complex than what you might think. It doesn’t do anything new or very exciting, but everything it does it does it well.

This is a very interesting adventure, full of humor and surprises. It mixes some well-known concepts to create something unique, replayable and addictive.

Not everyone is going to be happy with the selection, but it is a very solid collection with plenty of options, and even rollback.

Quotation forthcoming.

Recommended if you don't have any other platform to enjoy the game on. It's a great action title, but the additions won't justify a second or third purchase if you already have this title.

A compilation with no positive or negative surprises, that will allow newcomers to discover the origin of the series, and seasoned players to enjoy the first games again in an updated fashion.

Great collection, good remaster and plenty of options to enjoy the games or spend hours going through its collection of extras.

Despite minor issues with certain minigames and the loss of some decision-making weight, the game retains its charm, offering plenty of content for fans of the genre.

This title takes the best of the mobile versions of the series and brings it to Switch with a solid and unique execution.

What the Golf? Is one of those games that might look simple and silly, but they’re actually a lot of fun. It will surprise you every time you play, and If you’re an Apple Arcade subscriber you shouldn’t miss it.

Two great mteroidvanias, now available in one package. If you like the genre and you’re up for a challenge, it’s small collection worth considering.

This is a great, simple take on skateboarding. It doesn’t have much content, but the concept of flowing, keeping the momentum on your board, is incredibly satisfying.

This remaster restores some of the original’s best features, such as the gore and limb dismemberment, while refining combat mechanics and visuals with Unreal Engine 5. However, it remains based on the inferior Sigma version, with fewer enemies, reduced difficulty, and missing features, making it an improved but still compromised version of a legendary action game.

They already showed what they were capable of when adapting the original Bionic: Commando, and now the guys at GRIN have surpassed themselves translating the original concept to 3D, with a sequel that will please both series followers and newcomers for its approach and visual quality.

Although it lacks official licenses from the ATP, it offers quite a compelling gameplay and enough control options to satisfy every player.

We've loved Tiny and Big: Granpa's Leftover. It is one of those charming games that lets you smiling, and its mechanics feel fresh and different, as well as its atmosphere. It is a bit short, as it lasts around 3 or 4 hours, but to pick all the collectibles and achievements, it can last for some more hours.

This is one of those puzzle games you either love or hate. We loved it and, even though it felt quite limited after a few days, it's a game worth trying.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive brings back all the fun and entertainment we've always gotten from this series. More action, with updated visuals and a great price. We would have liked some good new additions, since the new modes are no rival for the classic competitive one. CS: Global Offensive doesn't take the franchise a step further, but it still is Counter-Strike.

There's nothing new in its concept, but the execution is great, and Hollow Knight becomes one of the best modern metroidvanias. A must have if you like this genre.

Quotation forthcoming.

For those who are looking for new experiences in videogames, Child of Eden is a must-buy, or at least a must-consider. A unique title in which we have to shoot rhythmically blending music and visual spectacle.

These two games land on PS5 with virtually no new features, but improving its resolution and framerate. Technical matters aside, both games are must-haves if you enjoy this type of challenge.

Exciting, raw and deep. That’s the best way to describe this adventure that anyone who likes a good story must play.

Quotation forthcoming.

If you want a fighting game and you feel overwhelmed with the main franchises, this can be a great option. The roaster isn’t the largest, but everything else –including its amazing graphics– is surprisingly good.

Supermassive Games expands the formula with online co-op, a grander scale, and striking visuals that make the eerie world more spectacular but less subtle, losing some of its original tension and precision in exchange for spectacle; despite its weaker controls and overly helpful AI, it remains an atmospheric and engaging experience that fans and newcomers alike will enjoy, even if its abrupt ending leaves a bittersweet taste.

Kakarot is one of the games based on this manga we’ve enjoyed the most. It’s a fantastic adventure, and even if it’s not perfect, it’s made by fans for fans. If you are one of those kids who sit in front of the TV waiting for the next episode to air, you’ll enjoy every second of it.

After a sort of simple and slow beginning, Katana Zero unleashes its fantastic gameplay and narrative. We wish it had more reasons to replay it, as it is a little bit short, but it is absolutely fantastic while it lasts.

With an improved combat system, Atelier comes back with a game that will appeal at a wider audience, as well as classic fans of the series.

This is a very good game, with interesting ideas and great execution. It's fun, challenging and deep, so we can't really ask much more.

The Delusion of Von Sottendorff and his Square Mind is a great surprise, a very clever game that works for everyone, from casual players to old puzzle fans. A great addition to the 3DS catalogue.

This cooperative action shooter set in the Warhammer 40K universe delivers intense battles and improved content since its initial release, but its long missions and underwhelming narrative still leave room for improvement. Still, a fantastic option for fans of the genre.

Kunai is a great action-platformer that reminds us of Metroid, thanks to its great level design and solid gameplay. It’s not very original, but we had a great time with it.

Its gameplay is greatly adapted to the touch screen and improves the user experience on iOS. Also, retina display make the graphics shine. A great game at a very affordable price.

Quotation forthcoming.

Although it is clear that it borrows some things from Hotline Miami, it also adds its fair amount of ideas. If you like this fast-paced gameplay, and you want to enjoy it in coop, make sure to check it out.

Even though we could have seen a better adaptation to PS3, the quality of the games, the extras and the amount of content they have to offer make it a collection worth considering.

Set in mid-19th century Japan, Rise of the Ronin offers an intriguing historical backdrop with solid combat mechanics and engaging side missions. However, its open-world design feels uninspired, lacking meaningful exploration and offering repetitive optional activities. Nevertheless, the game shines in its intense and satisfying combat system, which provides a thrilling samurai experience despite its shortcomings in world-building.

Although FIFA Manager 10 innovations won't make your jaw drop, they give it personality and make it show that competition in the sports management genre is still hard.

Even with the expected adjustments to make the visuals fit on Switch, Ni no Kuni II still is a great RPG that you can now enjoy anywhere.

Another gem of its genre, that engages us like only a few titles can. Just a little recommendation: go for a second play-through when you finish it. There's a nice surprise waiting for you.

This season has had its ups and downs, but this final episode is just great, and reminds us of the best of Telltale.

It doesn’t look great, and the idea might seem too simple, but the execution is great. It actually relies on simplicity to create a fun idea that simply works. A great option for fans of crafting.

PES 2011 3D is both classic and innovative, trying to offer a new way of playing, making the most of the 3D vision, but also allowing the player to reject this and choose the classic gameplay of the last ten years.

Prison Architect is a game that knows how to make you think thanks to a deep and well-designed execution full of possibilities.

An entertaining, replayable and complete game with a great multiplayer mode that has proven a success. Although it is a game quite similar to other games like Angry Birds or Cut the Rope, it has enough personality to differenciate itself from them.

Capcom takes a more accessible approach to bring new players in, and the strategy becomes more important than ever in the fights. We miss some characters and some more options for one player, but it still is a good option.

Quotation forthcoming.

Insomniac has delivered a beautiful game, filled with emotions and solid gameplay. It's not perfect, but it is unique.

A special title, which make us travel in time to that golden age of adventures. It offers carefully made retro graphics, a script that captivates us and geniously designed puzzles that make the game feel contemporary, despite the visuals.

Imagine Buzz, but more colorful, with more ways to play and controlled with a phone. We’ve had a great time playing with friends, and if you enjoy this type of quiz show-like game, it’s worth your money.

It was conceived as a Mega Drive/Genesis game, and that’s what it is. Now you have to think whether the features of a “true" 16 bit RPG are something positive or negative in 2014. If they are positive, then go for it.

This is a very accessible but deep RPG, very enjoyable and replayable. Spanish-speaking players will also find texts in their mother tongue, something quite rare for games like this one.

After Burner II still is a great game. If you want to relive it again with some remastered content, you won't be disappointed with this version.

If you miss RPGs from the 16-bit era, this is a game you should definitely play. Great combat system and tons of different enemies and dungeon, as well as well-crafted visuals, make it a solid choice.

My Friend Pedro is fantastic. It’s one of those games meant to be played with skill and style, like a hack & slash or like Bulletstorm. If that’s something that appeals you, you’ll love this killer banana.

In PS3, this is not going to be be the hit it has achieved to become in movile phones, but it retains its fun and entertainment, and offers lots of hours of fun for an affordable price.

The Switch 2 versions offer sharp image quality, stable performance, and an excellent new Spanish localization, although some pre-rendered cutscenes look worse and Kiwami 2 shows occasional frame pacing issues.

On paper, Is This Game Trying to Kill Me? may seem very similar to Tormenture (which we also recommend), but in reality they are very different games. Is This Game Trying to Kill Me? is a much more puzzle-oriented game, and the horror is minor. It's a short (and also cheap) title with very clever and well-planned puzzles, a good setting, and a concept that works very well. It's about three hours long, which we think is fantastic for those who enjoy the genre, and it also has a free prologue that lasts about 30 minutes, which we encourage you to try whether you're convinced to buy the full game or not, since it's a separate adventure.

Yet another soulslike, but this one is better than the average. Some technical issues are holding it back, but overall it is a very enjoyable game.

If you're up for a challenge, Galak-Z delivers a great experience. Even though it's not perfect, if you're interested in its shoot 'em up, roguelike concept, it's a good choice.

A great title which will engage those who dare to play it for more than five minutes.

The World Stage mode adds a meaningful single-player experience with unlockable cosmetics and secondary tournaments, while the inclusion of Dural and improved online features enhance replayability, although the mode can become repetitive and the paid DLC for Dural is frustrating. Despite minor drawbacks, the game remains visually appealing and mechanically deep, making it the most complete and polished version of Virtua Fighter 5 to date.

Ultimately a great arcade racing game that celebrates Sonic's 20th anniversary on iOS. A bit pricey, but worth it.

Bumpy Road has great gameplay and beautiful graphics, and is one of those few games that can make the player smile.

Below its apparent simplicity and nostalgic, even archaic style, lies a game that offers constant challenges.

With excellent visuals and remarkable gameplay, it is a noteworthy title within the racing games of Nintendo DS.

It's unique. There's no defined genre but it's a great experience that will manage to catch the player's attention, even though it would be quite particular for the standard audience.

Capcom enhances again its blockbuster, although perhaps the new features are not worth the price. If you have not played the previous SF4 versions, this is the best chance to try the return of the classic fighter.

It is not as surprising as the first game, but it is again a fun, complete and well made arcade game that becomes one of the best Arcade titles of the year.

Baseball fans don't have too many options available, and on Xbox One Super Mega Baseball is probably the best one so far, as long as they're happy with some Mii-like aesthetics.

A DLC full of content and worth the 1600 Microsoft Points it costs. It is perfectly integrated into Skyrim, offers plenty of secondary missions and the main story has great moments and epic battles. A very recommended acquisition for those who enjoyed Skyrim.

The Switch 2 versions offer sharp image quality, stable performance, and an excellent new Spanish localization, although some pre-rendered cutscenes look worse and Kiwami 2 shows occasional frame pacing issues.

Quotation forthcoming.

The problem is that it arrives on this platform quite late. Apart from this, the game offers a very original concept that needs some time to work out, but it's rewarding and engaging in the end.

Despite being more than ten years old, Broken Sword is an excellent mystery adventure which will delight genre fans, both those who already knew the series and also newcomers.
