    Even though it's not perfect, it's a very fun and well-designed, with a good sense of humor. One of those games that makes time fly.

    This is what Ninja Gaiden 3 should have been when it was first released. It's still far from perfect, but it brings back some of the feelings the series used to have.

    This is a great choice of old-school RPG fans, with many, many good ideas, and only a few issues preventing it from being something excellent.

    Gravel is a game that you'll enjoy if you like this type of racer, although it falls short of ambition when it comes to gameplay and content.

    Turok hasn't aged particularly well, but it still fun to play because of all the memories it brigs. Still, you might want to keep the fog on, because AI and the gunplay weren't designed to play without it.

    This is a good horror game, although its approach isn't going to please everyone. Its balance between new and old survival horror is interesting, so if you like the genre make sure you give this a try.

    There are some good ideas here, and it still is a fun game, but still far from the best examples of the genre.

    Industria is a beautiful game with a lot of potential, but held back by both technical and design issues. Some of them can be easily patch, some others might have to wait for a potential sequel.

    Marvel’s Avengers knows how to recreate the essence of the heroes it portrays, but it is a bit rough around the edges, and needs time to polish the experience and provide what you would expect from a game like this. This is just the first step, so we hope it all improves as it evolves.

    Limbic Entertainment has listened to its fans, and this is the game we've been asking for. It's an episode inspired by the franchise's roots, so if you played the classics, you know what to expect.

    Skyshine's BEDLAM works as a roguelike, but its simplistic combat system prevents it from becoming something bigger and deeper.

    Stepping away from the path of the main series, Ubisoft brings a complete mobile game that looks great and plays better, and becomes a good choice no matter if you’re looking for a complementary experience for AC IV or an individual one.

    If you miss old-school 8-bit RPGs, this is a very interesting option. It isn't perfect and has some aspects that need to be improved, but all in all it's a very enjoyable adventure.

    Ultimately, Codename Panzers: Cold War is a very good real time strategy game that delivers enough in all its aspects, but doesn't offer something brand new. Although enjoying the intense action of the game is satisfying, it will often look as it we had been there before.

    We keep liking Phoenix Wright, but this version is not as technically advanced as we expected, and you have to decide if the pleasure of enjoying the story compensates that limitation.

    It is better than Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising, so those who liked that one will like this new installment. But those unconvinced by the previous game won't change their opinion with this new entry, as it improves on it, but doesn't evolve or change much.

    A typical expansion which adds new options and missions to the main game and is a good choice for series followers. Although it adds new content, it doesn't bring anything really new in graphics or gameplay mechanics, so those looking for new things to do should think twice.

    This is a perfect example of a free-to-play title. There's all the content available, and paying for anything is just an option rather than an imposition. On the top of that, is fun, entertaining and full of options.

    Just fun in a straight-forwarded way. Having dinosaurs is one of the key elements that makes it different and enjoyable, however, we think there's no enough content to keep us playing after a few hours.

    A great choice if you're looking for a challenge, although, be warned, since it will definitely test your patience. If you know what you're going to face, then you won't regret it.

    It's yet another strategy game, and even if it feels sometimes a bit chaotic, it does deserve your attention if you're a fan of the series.

    It's not the biggest RPG of the year, but it's a pretty good one. If you're looking for a good RPG adventure and you're happy with an original, Naruto-like system, have a look at this one.

    If you've been waiting to play this game, it's finally available in the West. It has some shortcomings, but it's a good game overall and, of course, this is the best way to play it.

    Yaga is great adventure with some RPG touches. We’ve found it very charming and, even if it is quite short, it’s also replayable.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    This is a solid strategy game, and even if it doesn’t match the greatness of the titles it’s based on and loses a bit of depth, it offers a lot of fun and a much friendlier learning curve.

    Although it isn’t much different from other roguelites out there, if you’re looking for one with a 4-player coop, this is a good choice.

    This collection brings classic Sims games to modern systems with all expansions and improved resolution support, but the lack of optimization results in crashes, long load times, and outdated UI elements. While nostalgic players may enjoy revisiting these life simulators, the minimal effort put into this re-release makes it feel like a missed opportunity for the franchise's 25th anniversary.

    It remains a JRPG gem defined by its mature, dark narrative and frantic combat system. However, this edition feels more like a simple port than a meaningful remaster. While quality-of-life additions and bundled DLC provide value for newcomers, the nearly imperceptible visual upgrades offer little incentive for returning players to revisit this classic.

    ELEX gives us freedom, choices and replayability. It's a quite old-school RPG that falls short when it comes to graphics and AI. If you've played and enjoyed any of the previous Piranha Bytes games, make sure you give this one a try.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    This is a fast musou game that you can enjoy whether you know the franchise or not. It's not something special within the genre, but if you understand its shortcomings and aspirations, you'll probably like it.
