    Beat ‘em up fans can rejoice again. The TakeOver is a great example of how to bring back an old-school genre, keeping that arcade vibe and solid gameplay.

    It is an enjoyable game and a good option, specially if you are fan of the characters.

    This sequel is not a revolution by any means, but it is a fantastic interactive drama where the paranormal is just a channel to talk about emotions.

    Very few things to complain about. We miss an actual multiplayer mode, or a full Game Center compatibility, but apart from that, it's entertaining, cheap and a universal app. We really think you'll love its offer, so it is definitely worth trying.

    PXZ2 is made for and by people who love video games. The formula hasn't changed that much, but it still works and it's an experience full of fan service and very enjoyable.

    It is fun and addictive, but the difficulty hasn't been properly balanced, and sometime feels that it just tries to artificially make the game longer.

    TLoZ: Tri-force Heroes is better than we expected... when played with friends. If you're going to play with people you know, you'll find a great coop experience. Alone or with unknown people, it's not that enjoyable.

    Considering that it's not the most popular genre at the moment, ARPG fans will find in Stories a very interesting game (both visually and gameplay-wise) charming and very enjoyable.

    These games bring back the classics with beautiful new graphics, but even with its new features, there isn’t any innovation, but a step backwards for the series.

    The game system is the same as ever, but it is still fun.

    As long as you're ok with its anime nature, you'll find a good dungeon crawler, with a very interesting strategic side and challenge.

    This third episode is definitely a step in the right direction. Things start to make sense, the narrative feels more compelling and it delivers a more engaging adventure. Still, we know Telltale can do better.

    Runner3 is challenging and fun, with an amazing control and ideal no matter how long you want to play it for.

    Vaporum offers an interesting take on dungeon crawling with a concept close to old-school pen-and-paper RPG. The controls on consoles, though, are pretty bad.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    This is a fun and weird (in a good way) mix of platforming and puzzle, and the result is surprisingly good. A great choice if you want something different.

    This remake/reimagination of Layers of Fear is a good horror adventure where the first game shines brighter than the rest, but enjoyable overall thanks to its setting and art style.

    A puzzle game that experiments with the rules of chess in various thematic and improbable situations, offering many hours of content and some great puzzles, but suffering from problems of visual design, a poor interface, a slow start, and a very irregular translation.

    With a satisfying and strategic combat system inspired by Dark Souls and Dead Cells, Tyrant’s Realm delivers an engaging experience despite its limited enemy variety and lack of meaningful difficulty scaling. The bosses are visually and mechanically unique but too easy, and while the progression system encourages experimentation, the lack of content makes optimal builds too predictable.

    • 60 Critic Score
    This VR arcade brawler offers a unique and physically demanding combat system with cinematic ambition and striking visual flair, but suffers from repetitive gameplay, technical flaws, and a lack of mechanical depth that ultimately make it feel more like a rough prototype than a fully realized experience.

    Bounty Star combines mecha combat, base management, and a post-apocalyptic western story with touching emotional depth and striking art direction, but its clunky controls, poor translation, and performance issues hold it back from fulfilling its potential.

    This cinematic platformer offers a charming protagonist and flashes of visual beauty, yet it collapses under rigid stealth and frustrating trial-and-error design. Although the platforming feels natural, the repetitive industrial environments and clunky pacing hinder the experience. It ultimately delivers a mediocre adventure that struggles to distinguish itself within a crowded genre.

    Shadowkeep levels up Destiny to its best. It isn’t perfect, but there is more content than ever before and more options to enjoy it, and gameplay-wise still has no rival.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A more than justified sequel. The gameplay doesn't change a lot, but the new features bring some freshness and renovation to the formula, and the new visuals are great. It is as addictive as ever, and a sure bet for your iPhone.

    You won’t find many new features here, but both the universe and the formula are quite good, so the result is a very enjoyable game.

    Aspyr brings back the original adventures of Lara Croft with a respectful remastering that improves the graphics and controls, but also has some flaws and inconsistencies. The gameplay remains faithful to the essence of these classics, with a focus on exploration and puzzles that is rare to find nowadays, despite the outdated shooting mechanics and some quality of life issues in the menus.

    In conclusion, Virtua Tennis 2009 shows up as what it is, without experiments in its gameplay. It just modifies the control to adapt itself to Nintendo's machine, and makes use of the Wii MotionPlus to optimize its control.

    Those players who enjoyed games like Unreal Tournament will find a game with much of its essence, but with spaceships. We expect more content and game modes to expand the experience, but it is a good start.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    This sequel is a step forward in pretty much every aspect. It is a very good option if you want to play with friends, although you’ll feel it falls a little bit short when it comes to single player content.
