Worms: Battle Island keeps the series principles, two dimensions and a turn system, and it adds few but interesting new features which help it keep being fresh.- Vandal

A good cycling game, although a bit stagnated. If last year game was a bit scarce in new features, this one is even worse in this aspect, and it looks more like an expansion or update for the previous game than a new game itself. However, this is still the best cycling management game out there.- Vandal

Dark Quest 4 delivers a nostalgic and enjoyable turn-based dungeon crawler experience with handcrafted levels, strategic combat, and a simple yet engaging progression system, although its story is minimal, animations are sparse, and level variety is limited; the editor and community-created dungeons extend its longevity, making it a solid pick for newcomers and fans of light strategy games.- Vandal

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

Those looking for something new on Kinect will find this game simple but refreshing. It has plenty of durability and can become challenging sometimes, and motion detection works very well, although physics are not as spectacular as they should be. It lacks some charm and originality, but it is one of the best downloadable titles for Kinect.- Vandal

"Yet another zombie game" would be the most direct definition of Zombie Apocalypse: Never Die Alone. It offers everything you can expecto from a zombie game: zombies, action and cooperative play.

Ultimately, From the Abyss won't enter history for having set any milestone within the console portfolio, because although it has a good presentation, its concept can result repetitive for players expecting a good blend between action and story.

Desvelado is a simple puzzle-platformer that develops a single core mechanic of extinguishing candles across different rooms, with some new challenges and interactive elements introduced as the game progresses. Despite its solid design, it feels limited by its lack of ambition and simplistic visuals, making it an entertaining but forgettable experience. The game's challenge relies more on puzzles than platforming skills, and although it’s accessible, its lack of depth and creativity in design hold it back.- Vandal
