UNBEATABLE delivers an ambitious blend of a stylish 90s anime narrative adventure and a deep arcade rhythm game. While its captivating soul and aesthetic are undeniable, the story suffers from pacing issues, a lack of polish, and technical bugs. Yet, the robust and musically varied rhythm arcade mode offers an immensely enjoyable and compelling experience.

The Blackout Club is great when played with friends, otherwise it becomes repetitive way too soon. The mission design is probably its weakest point, and we wonder if it wouldn’t had been a better idea to approach a more traditional adventure to make the most of its fantastic universe and story.

AER is quite original, mixing puzzles and a zen feeling. It's a good journey, but not an unforgettable one.

While still as addictive and clever as ever, with new challenges and local multiplayer adding some fresh fun, this remaster falls short due to visual inconsistencies, interface issues, and a less dynamic soundtrack, making it an enjoyable but imperfect revival of a timeless classic.

This is a beautiful platforming adventure that, after a slow start, becomes interesting and enjoyable. Simple, but fun.

Even though it may feel like a simple reimagination of the original, all the new features are more than enough for those who want more Sherlock Holmes.

If you like the Total War franchise and series like Vikings or The Last Kingdom, this is the perfect game for you. As a strategy game, it’s not the best from Creative Assembly, but it still is very good.

Unrailed! tries to create a chaotic multiplayer experience, and it succeeds… although not for very long. Maybe new updates can bring new ideas to help it grow.

If you like the original, this sequel delivers exactly what you expect: more and better content. A good title that never gets to shine.

They Are Billions is a very enjoyable strategy game, particularly thanks to its survival mode, since its campaign isn’t very inspired. It is, definitely, one of those titles that will give you a lot of hours of fun.

It's not the biggest RPG of the year, but it's a pretty good one. If you're looking for a good RPG adventure and you're happy with an original, Naruto-like system, have a look at this one.

A functional combination of Stardew Valley, Animal Crossing and Pokémon that becomes addictive thank to its tone and aesthetic.

Good, but still far from what EA is attempting to achieve. It will be enough for those looking for their annual war-themed FPS, but its gameplay needs to reach the high levels seen in its audio and visual aspects.

More puzzles and a new mode for Picross fans. It's hard to evolve the formula, but it offers more content for those who enjoyed Picross e2.

Telltale is finding the right way to make Minecraft: Story Mode a game for everyone, and not just for kids. It's a little bit late, but if you've liked it so far, you're going to enjoy this fourth episode.

It’s not the most original puzzle game out there, but it’s fun, hard and perfect if you’re looking for a cooperative experience with a platforming touch.

Resident Evil 6 is not what you would call a Resident Evil, but it’s a good over-the-top action shooter that works pretty well on Switch. This version could’ve had a better optimization, but it’s perfectly playable.

Sacred 2 Fallen Angel in its console version is a good game. It spite of its technical flaws (though nothing dramatic) or the uncomfortable camera, it has its virtues like its durability (more than 100 hours), its active level development and the fun multiplayer matches.

Rally Arcade Classics certainly deserves a lot more attention than it's been getting in its first few weeks, and we hope this isn't indicative of the current market's lack of interest in speed arcades. It's not trying to reinvent the arcade formula but rather pay homage to it, nor will it completely fill the gap left by the demise of arcades, but it's a passion project that can compete with the current competition in the indie space unless you consider the existence of a multiplayer mode to be absolutely essential.

Supermassive is back with an enjoyable adventure that we recommend playing with friends, although we also feel the core of the experience –the story– isn’t strong enough.

FIFA 23, as a standalone game, is great, but as a sequel doesn’t really offer any big features to justify this year’s entry.

The Golf Club 2 is a good game, quite deep and with many options to create and play with the community. Unfortunately, it hasn't evolved as much as you would think after 3 years, but if you enjoyed the original, this sequel won't disappoint you.

Although the lack of extra content and option is alarming, Toki still is a great game, and the new visuals make it more enjoyable than ever.

This is a safe bet: if you like the original you will find more of that here. It's a good RPG, but there aren't many surprises here.

Fans of the genre won't be disappointed, since they will find a pretty solid experience, full of action. However, there are no relevant additions for those who played the original version.

Maybe the Italian manufacturer deserves something better, but still this approach is a game that will satisfy fans of the genre.

Despite its flaws this is still a good game that Dragon Ball origins fans shouldn't let escape.

It's one of those games VR needs. It's not an unforgettable experience and it doesn't take you to wonderful worlds, but it's a good arcade to have a great time with.

Slow Bros.' game combines charming claymation and meticulous craftsmanship with a bold, yet potentially divisive gameplay approach that reflects its protagonist's mundane life and emphasizes narrative over action. Despite losing its focus and reducing interactivity over time, its captivating characters and thought-provoking themes create an unforgettable audiovisual experience for some, while others may find it tedious.

Super Crush K.O. is some soft of combo ‘em up, a very interesting concept that works quite well. It needs a wider variety of enemies and situations, but it’s one of those titles you want to consider if you want to try a unique action game.

Nightmare Boy offers a good tribute to old-school games, with lots of action and a metroidvania design. It's not a big budget game, but you'll have fun with it.

Guerrilla has aged quite well overall, although some aspects are definitely a little bit outdated. It isn’t a must have, but it does have some impressive moments and there’s a lot of fun to be had.

It's certainly not the JRPG of the year on Nintendo Switch or PC, but it has charm, a strong art direction, and its gameplay loop is well suited to short games, something many RPGs will surely appreciate.

It's just more Picross, but that doesn't mean it's something bad. Quite the opposite.

This collection serves as a competent preservation tool, offering impeccable technical customization and quality-of-life additions. While these DS titles represent a period of diminishing returns for the franchise, the polished interface and robust online features make it an essential acquisition for diehard fans despite the lack of local translation.

Penumbra: Requiem has an approximate durability of about five hours and is a fun puzzle game, with some really clever and absorbing puzzles.

This is a fighting game with some solid ideas, very enjoyable no matter if you’re new to the genre or a veteran. It has its ups and downs, and we’re not sure about how strong its community will be, but it’s worth a try if you want something different from the main franchises.

Surprisingly fun, this Army of Two is likely to go unnoticed because of all the games launched these weeks. However, it delivers what it promises: loads of fun.

It is a pity Sega hasn't added any new feature, like extras or additional modes to encourage the player.

This is a fun, little adventure that combines Metroidvania and Pokémon in a way we weren’t expecting. If that concept sounds good to you, give it a try.

It’s great to have Pac-Man back, even if it doesn’t bring any new to the table. Of course, it depends how many games you already own or care about.

Lost in the Dark is very much a sequel, for better of worse, and delivers exactly what you would expect from Yomawari.

Fun, with good ideas and ambition, but not as good as other similar titles. At least, it’s a breath of fresh air in the indie scene.

Necrovision is overall a good game, with some fun moments and original features, something to praise nowadays... but it does not reach to be a great game. Thus, combining the little awareness of the game in comparison with the latest larger productions, will probably make Necrovision go mostly unnoticed.

A positive step forward in the series, which adds freedom and polish the gameplay mechanics. Recommended for those who enjoyed the series before, and still deserves a try if you like the concept.

Even though there are just a few differences between these versions and the original ones, it still feels fun a fresh, and it's a great experience for those looking for something different.

Newer entries are probably better games, but these are solid JRPGs, and this is a great opportunity for newcomers to discover the franchise.

Resident Evil 5 takes the RE4 core and adds a fully cooperative campaign and more action… and it works. The Switch version could have been more polished, although these technical hiccups won’t stop you from enjoying the game.

This is a poor adaptation of a good ARPG. There are many technical issues that affect both the graphics and the gameplay, so it’s up to the player if you’re willing to accept these sacrifices.

Millennia delivers a classic 4X strategy experience reminiscent of Civilization, featuring engaging gameplay and innovative ideas such as alternative Eras and city management improvements. However, it falls short due to its cumbersome interface and unbalanced difficulty, which hinder its potential for greatness. Despite its flaws, Millennia offers addictive gameplay and promises future improvements through patches or sequels.

High on Life 2 delivers a more refined, witty humor and exhilarating skateboard mechanics, forging a uniquely entertaining experience. However, its combat remains simplistic and uninspired, with persistent performance issues, including frustrating bugs and framerate drops, unfortunately marring an otherwise imaginative artistic vision.

As previous episodes, a simple and accesible adventure, a bit more complex than the previous ones, with joyful humor and a fun story. Although we think it could be even better.

The Legend of Legacy is one of those games you either love or hate. It has as many virtues as weaknesses, but it takes many risks to offer something different, and we think the experience is good enough to make its strengths prevail.

Clearly inspired by Limbo, Monochroma is an experience fans of the former will enjoy. There are some aspects that should have been polished, but it does deserve a try.

This is an enjoyable adventure that doesn’t do anything particularly remarkable, but will entertain those who like action, RPG and platforming and want to know more about its universe.

We think Milestone should have put more effort into this game, since there are little additions compared to the previous edition. The foundations are great, and the game is pretty good indeed, but there's still a long way to go.

Old School Rally delivers an authentic, arcade-style retro rally experience, perfectly emulating 90s classics with direct controls and distinct vehicle handling across ample content. However, its progression feels uninspired, and menu presentation, translation, and musical score exhibit a notable lack of polish, detracting from an otherwise nostalgic journey.

As a point and click adventure is nothing special, but it works well in VR, being a good example for those who want to try the possibilities of their headset.

My Hero Academia: All's Justice delivers an expansive roster and faithful anime presentation, serving as a dedicated gift for fans. However, the experience is hampered by camera instability, inexplicable difficulty spikes, and combat imbalances, limiting its appeal primarily to series enthusiasts rather than broader fighting game audiences.

Blue Fire is a good action platformer that knows how to keep the player engaged. There are some difficulty spikes, so you will have to be patient sometimes.

Agents of Mayhem is a game with very good ideas and quite enjoyable, but it can't avoid feeling repetitive. Also, its recommended difficulty is ridiculously low, and it makes the game feel more boring than it actually is. Make sure you play it on harder levels so it forces you to use the three-character team mechanics.

New Super Lucky’s Tale improves many things from the original, but it also does some things worse. It’s a nice platformer, quite enjoyable on Nintendo’s hybrid console, so give it a try if you like the genre.

Interesting, fun and fresh, it's not the ultimate action game, but definitely a good choice.

The biggest selling point is being able to finally enjoy this game in the West. It is not the best title FormSoftware has ever developed, but if you know what you’re buying, it’s worth your time.

Overall Avatar is an entertaining game with an interesting proposal, although maybe it should have had a greater exploration component. You will enjoy it while it lasts.

An extinct approach to first-person shooters, like a game locked into a time capsule that has been relased now (which is almost what happened). There are indeed many better shooters out there, but very few as charming, although the game might disappoint some who are just looking for a FPS by today's standards.

Multiplayer shooter meets deck building in a strange mix that actually works. Fun, intense, and as original in its concept as in its art.

Sacred 2 Fallen Angel in its console version is a good game. It spite of its technical flaws (though nothing dramatic) or the uncomfortable camera, it has its virtues like its durability (more than 100 hours), its active level development and the fun multiplayer matches.

7th Sector is an interesting puzzle game that should be judged as a whole, including its particular setting and presentation. It has some flaws, but also many strengths, and it’s a good choice if you like the genre.

As a remake, it’s very conservative, but we found fascinating going back to System Shock, not only for its influence in gaming, but also because it’s something completely different from what we’re used to nowadays.

This Definitive Edition brings the PC experience to consoles, and it’s a good option for those who miss Baldur’s Gate, and are happy to discover an indie approach to it.

Don’t Nod ventures into the visual novel territory where decisions really matter, and that can be a good alternative if you’re looking for something closer to Western sensibilities.

It sticks to the original concept of the series, and offers an addictive experience. If you haven't played Lemmings recently and you enjoyed it once, it won't disappoint.

A Place for the Unwilling is a great game for those who are looking for something different, where you are in control of the experience. It isn’t perfect, and there are signs that reflect a challenging development, but it is something unique.

Overall this is a good game for playing with friends, with lots of comic situations and a potential for high competitiveness between the players. However, its gameplay can become too simple and repetitive for some players.

This is one of those games that are becoming rare to find. It has a great amount of positive qualities, but there are also quite important issues that prevent it from being something better.

The Forest is a very good surviving game, although now some of its mechanics feel a little bit updated. However, this PS4 version is a great way to enjoy one of our favorite survival games.

Seven is a good stealth game, spiced up with RPG features. It has some issues, but it is very enjoyable overall.

Godstrike is a good option if you like bullet hell and boss rush games. It does have some shortcomings, but overall is challenging and fun.

James Bond followers will find an adventure which respects carefully the franchise canon, but the rest will just see an above average action game with no innovative features but great competitors.

It’s a cozy survival game with charming crafting, exploration, and a warm audiovisual style, but the unclear mission design, frustrating lack of a map, and clunky interface can hinder the experience — overall, a sweet and relaxing adventure for players who favor atmosphere over deep challenge.

Quotation forthcoming.

James Bond followers will find an adventure which respects carefully the franchise canon, but the rest will just see an above average action game with no innovative features but great competitors.

This is a pretty good choice if you’re looking for a lighter take on strategy. It can be quite fun and exciting, so try the demo and judge for yourself.

It could be a must buy for any Mega Man fan, if only they have adapted the originals better.

Echo Generation 2 delivers an audiovisual treat soaked in 90s nostalgia and sci-fi charm. The revamped card-based combat system provides a fresh tactical layer over its predecessor. However, the experience feels brief and hurried, suffering from a lack of character depth and mechanical variety that leaves its ambitious episodic structure somewhat unfulfilled.

Blossom Tales is a quite enjoyable adventure, with a very old-school feel. You might say it's a soulless Zelda, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

An interesting and historic take on strategy, with good ideas and some limitations you can expect from an indie developer.

Jate Kave Adventure is a good 2D platformer, full of good ideas. It’s quite short, but it’s a good option if you like this genre.

"Weird" is the word that best describes Shadow Labyrinth, a textbook 2D Metroidvania with a rather ugly aesthetic, a somewhat strange story and setting, and gameplay that doesn't stand out in any way, with a development that is surprisingly mediocre in its first few hours, but improves considerably in the final part. There are much better options within the genre, but if you're a REAL fan of this type of game and have already played all the important ones, we're sure you'll enjoy it. A title that, despite its shortcomings and lack of standing out in any way, has a "certain charm." In fact, we wouldn't be surprised if it ends up becoming a kind of cult title, one of those games that only grows stronger over the years, given time.

Raccoo Venture is a platform game starring a raccoon that must recover the magical relics of his grandfather. It is well designed, and clearly influenced by classics from the 90s like Super Mario 64 or Crash Bandicoot3. Some of the most fun levels are ridiculously short, and the combat is lacking in action and variety. The puzzles are challenging and the levels are balanced, but the game does not stand out in any aspect.

Songbird Symphony is interesting thanks to its implementation of rhythm mechanics. However, it isn’t very challenging, so more experience players might not find it appealing.

All in all, Bluey’s Quest for the Gold Pen is a game worth recommending for children looking to enjoy one of their first gaming experiences. Its gameplay is designed entirely with young children in mind, featuring challenges that introduce them to mechanics found in a wide range of titles. However, it can prove somewhat complex for them, requiring constant supervision. In any case, it stands out as one of the best interactive experiences currently available for enjoying with little ones—and it features a franchise that both children and parents can easily connect with.

Wizard of Legend executes its idea quite successfully and creates a very enjoyable experience, although it ends up feeling repetitive.

Overall Blue Dragon: Awakened Shadow is a good title which is right in every of its aspects, although without surprising us in any of then. Everything works well, but the game doesn't achieve to engage us like other ones.

The change is definitely good, but it doesn't reach the excellence of the main titles of the series. Still, it's a great choice while we wait for Danganronpa 3.
