Action roguelike enthusiasts should give this title a chance, as it offers a highly enjoyable and addictive formula with deep and customizable combat, meticulous attention to audiovisual and narrative aspects. However, the initial hours of gameplay might be confusing, and the absence of Spanish language support despite a rich narrative could be a drawback.- Vandal

Balatro ingeniously transforms the familiar concept of poker into a fresh and captivating experience, offering a plethora of strategies to explore through its innovative mechanics.

Crusader Kings II is probably the best game Paradox has ever made.

Thanks to its good AI, the game gets challenging and realistic. Its only flaws are the limitations in the military part.- Vandal

This masterful spin-off translates the franchise's addictive essence into a surprisingly deep card-based dungeon crawler. Its strategic combo system and rewarding progression loop create an incredibly satisfying experience, bolstered by a stellar soundtrack. Although it feels less infinite than its predecessor, its polished mechanics and immense value make it an essential, high-quality experience.- Vandal

Everything fans may expect. A frantic and incredibly fun multiplayer with tons of options, game modes and unlockables, and also very well polished, and an intense campaign that concludes a story which started with Modern Warfare four years ago.

This frantic roguelite evolves the Housemarque formula into the year's most intense shooter. It delivers an exquisite control scheme and breathtaking bullet-ballet combat, further enriched by a flexible difficulty system and meaningful permanent progression. Although the enemy variety feels slightly limited, the addictive loop and monumental boss encounters cement it as a superior, more accessible successor.- Vandal

Resident Evil 6 offers a huge variety of situations, full of surprises and unforgettable moments, but there's only a tiny bit of the survival horror it once was.

This is a masterpiece of a genre whose essence has been lost because of the "casualization" of the video games. It's like going back to the 8/16 bits, when the experience was the most important thing. There's only two things we can complain about: not being localized (into Spanish) and not being ready for HDTV's. If this is not a problem for you, then it scores a perfect 10.- Vandal
