Hidden Agenda tells us an interesting story, and adds a new type of game to the PlayLink lineup, but unfortunately, it's quite short and not very replayable, considering it is part of a set of games designed to be played with friends.- Vandal

While Forever still is a great platformer, we feel it doesn’t come closer to the quality of the original. In any case, if you enjoyed it, you’ll have fun with this one too.- Vandal

A detective adventure with puzzles and forensic tests that offers an entertaining but predictable mystery, with a short duration and a low production value. It has a good base for a detective game, but its limitations prevent its strengths from shining more, and you can complete it in very little time if you have experience in the genre.- Vandal

This climbing roguelike features procedurally generated levels and creative challenges that leverage physics for a fun and engaging experience, despite its unintuitive controls and occasional frustrating bugs. The whimsical visual style and humorous design add charm, but the game is more suited for solo play rather than cooperative sessions.- Vandal

- Critic Score
It is imperfect in a mysterious and sordid story that at times seems like an incomprehensible gibberish, but that ends up fitting with a structure that reminds us of Siren. It is imperfect in a combat system that lacks depth and precision, but that makes up for it with originality and rhythms different from those of any other hack and slash. It is imperfect in its gameplay loop, relying too much on a repetition that becomes repetitiveness, but which at the same time poses curious situations. And it is imperfect in its audiovisual finish, where there are tremendous contrasts that show that this is neither an indie game nor a great production, but neither is it something that is right in the middle, but rather it transits in that range as it sees fit. There will be those who think it is a mediocre video game, and it is true that you have to have a certain predisposition to enjoy it, whether for what it proposes in its mechanics, for its setting, for its tone or for the legacy of those who signed it. But we wouldn't want to miss it for anything. It's a victory for gamers and the industry that Slitterhead exists.- Vandal

This remake delivers a visually improved version of a classic SRPG with a complex mech-based tactical system and a mature, politically charged story, but suffers from a poor Spanish translation and a lack of meaningful gameplay innovations; while the enhanced interface and new quality-of-life options help, the game misses the chance to fully modernize or preserve the original’s raw essence.- Vandal

It's a quite special game, but not necessarily in a good way. We understand what the developers tried to achieve, but in the end it's a game that doesn't give you any help and can feel unfair. If you're ok with this and you're looking for a challenge, it can be an interesting experience.- Vandal

A fun minigame compilation with some of the most loved characters in videogames. More than fifty minigames which make an exhaustive use of all the control possibilites of the console, some of them very original. Although not all the minigames have the same quality and you will easily hate a dozen of them, it is easy to find your favorites and have a great time trying to surpass your own records. Its major flaw is the absence of a game mode that challenges us differently.- Vandal

A good strategy game which fans of the first game will like, despite not evolving too much the formula of the original.
