    Although the shooter market is crowded with many titles, Nexuiz has some interesting new features that make it diferent. It doesn't try to compete with the likes of Call of Duty or Battlefield, but is a fun, quick and ever changing game, recommended for those looking for something different.

    Pepper Grinder delivers a fluid and enjoyable 2D platforming experience with its unique drilling mechanic, although it lacks cohesion and confidence in its main gameplay mechanic. The game's constant introduction of new ideas sometimes overshadows its core mechanic, resulting in a somewhat disjointed experience. Despite this, it offers fun and challenging gameplay with a charming visual and sound design.

    Still Wakes the Deep is an entertaining game from start to finish, without any filler, and audiovisually very good, which takes us to an original setting to tell us a more than well-known story. Taking into account that as a walking simulator or narrative adventure it relies completely on what it tells, we believe that the story is not strong enough to support all the weight, and relies too much on an ending that we found very good to be able to justify its existence. This does not mean that we had a great time, and we enjoyed the almost six hours that it lasted, especially thanks to a very successful ending that knows how to close to leave a very good taste in our mouths.

    Tin Hearts puts too much emphasis on its story, and we think this is counterproductive, but when we’re just solving puzzles, Tin Hearts really shines.

    Super Meat Boy 3D captures the ruthless precision of the original while adding a polished visual layer. However, the transition to 3D introduces frustrating perspective issues and a fixed camera that complicates depth perception. Despite uninspired boss battles, the addictive difficulty and extensive replayability sustain a worthwhile, yet ultimately less perfect, platforming experience.

    Ideal for those who love the original game, but those who are not comfortable with "old" playable schemes should try it before making up their minds.

    This is a very interesting mix of platforming and puzzle. It isn't perfect, but it's definitely original and enjoyable.

    A game that will please those looking for an addictive and fresh puzzle game. Maybe it's not very original, because it mixes Angry Birds with Cut the Rope, but is a good alternative and a recommended buy for those looking for something different.

    A classic and complex roleplaying game has become an entertaining and enjoyable adventure in a fantasy world. Despite some flaws, Arcania: Gothic 4 is a highly recommended game.

    The strategic action and management combination that The Godfather 2 proposes is a remarkable formula, but also risky. Maybe it won't be able to convince gamers looking for an action game, nor those looking for strategy, but our feeling is that ultimately this is an action game -a good one- with interesting strategy elements, more than the contrary.

    A Japanese action game that takes elements from Western games to achieve a very interesting blend that action gamers will appreaciate. It is not the best action game out there, but it is different and deserves an opportunity.

    Although it’s not very ambitious, it’s an enjoyable adventure that follows the essence of the franchise. The sense of humor, of course, remains the same.

    It is a good proposal, although with some flaws which don't prevent this game to be enjoyable and original. Sometimes it's hard for the camera to give us the green light, but except for this details, it works, and very well indeed, and we'll laugh with the ridiculous photographs it has taken.

    At the beginning it can be frustrating, but give it some time, find the control scheme that works best for you, and get ready to enjoy DOOM in a way you’ve never done it before.

    Trash Panic is a fun and accessible title for the PlayStation Network portfolio and covers the puzzle genre in a more than satisfying way, although this is not a milestone at all.

    Lost Horizon has all the elements to reach the mass market. It combines humour with well done design work. Its story is worth a movie, and achieves to engage the player since the beginning.

    The return of the Prince to PSP is good, although controls may turn down some, and maybe it lacks some depth in its proposal.

    Although it's more focused on the competitive side, it does its job and delivers a quite enjoyable experience.

    This is not the best remastered game we've seen –some technical issues, not too much new content–, but it still is a really fun experience.

    Despite its graphics, which could have been better, Phantasy Star Portable is a noteworthy action and RPG game, and it won't disappoint hardcore series followers.

    This is a very interesting puzzle game, for those who are looking for something challenging. Make sure you understand what it has to offer, as we know it won’t please everyone, but if you like its concept you’ll have a great time with it.

    While its colorful art direction, eccentric humor, and fantastic new soundtrack capture the charm of the original, Once Upon a Katamari feels stagnant, with outdated controls, low interactivity, and few meaningful innovations beyond its nostalgic core.

    Bleeding Edge has a great core, but it feels like there is still a lot of work to do. Games evolve constantly now, so it’s worth keeping and eye on and, if you are a Game Pass subscriber, make sure you give it a try.

    ARK is a good survival game with a great setting. It's one of those titles where you can spend hours trying to survive, while building a house and taming a dinosaur, and even though it still feels a little bit like in early access, if you like the concept you'll probably enjoy it.

    Manifold Garden is very original, and not only gameplay-wise but also when it comes to its art and arquitectural design. However, we feel like its design needs some work to bring it up there with the greatest puzzle games.

    A short and somewhat limited game, that doesn't include a multiplayer mode which would fit very well, but also a very entertainment experience that will please those looking for an arcade driving game.

    This game has not received too much attention, but the mix of ideas put into it does deserve it. We recommend to at least try it, since it has a demo available.

    Even though it's far from perfect, we've enjoyed this title, and we really hope it's successful enough to see a more polished sequel.

    Call of the Sea has left a good taste in our mouths, a modest adventure of puzzles and narrative that poses some good puzzles and a very simple and unoriginal story, but that never takes on too much prominence and is followed with pleasure, achieving a good balance between all its parts. If you like riddles in their proper measure, without needing to leave you mentally exhausted, surely you are going to enjoy it.

    This collection holds many hours of fun, but some aspects of the gameplay haven't aged particularly well. Still, it's something Harry Potter fans will enjoy.
