    Despite its colorful world and fun movement mechanics, Completely Stretchy fails to capture the essence of its inspirations, offering a shallow experience with a restrictive open world, uninspired objectives, and limited interaction beyond its quirky aesthetics. Its art direction and humorous dialogues provide some charm, but the game ultimately feels like a watered-down version of Sludge Life with little new to offer.

    The biggest problem here is that people expected way too much from it. It's not a bad game, and children or parents willing to play with its kind will definitely have some fun with it.

    The game does not work as good as we think the dev team planned, but it offers some interesting ideas and does entertain. We recommend trying the demo first, since it might be a choice worth considering.

    It feels like a game designed to catch some fans the series. There's some important issues, but if you get some friends to play with, it's a product you can enjoy.

    There's some great ideas behind One Upon Light, but it needs a better execution, more content and a more balanced difficulty to be the game it was meant to.

    This is like a playable joke that is fun for a while… but gets repetitive too soon.

    Surrealism and graphic adventures are a complicated match, but Memoranda is interesting and has some really cool moments. It's also a nice tribute to Murakami's work.

    APID isn't a bad game, but it doesn't do anything new or particularly well. Still, is a good choice if you're just looking for some shooting action.

    Even thought it's technically outstanding, this game becomes something mediocre because of its abusive free-to-play system.

    Despite its punk charm, clever ideas, and quirky narrative tone, Hotel Barcelona suffers from weak combat design, repetitive structure, poor performance, and clunky controls that undermine its creative potential and make it enjoyable mainly for fans of Swery, Suda51, or 80s horror references.

    It looks good and holds some interesting ideas, but the control and the repetitive puzzle system have a negative impact on the overall experience. If you’re looking for a puzzle game, though, this may work.

    Breathedge has a solid foundations and really good ideas, but also fails to make the most of it. The second half feels like a stretch, and some of the concepts are underutilized or, at least, not very well explained.

    The Complex is an entertaining FMV, decision-based adventure that works, but doesn’t do anything really new. We feel like it’s a story we already knew, and when the story is everything you’ve got, it really needs to shine.

    The lack of multiplayer, the lack of save data and the lack of a defined genre prevent Lost Sea from achieving something bigger, as it's clear that it has some good ideas and solid foundations.

    If we achieve to get used to the confusing controls, it is an enjoyable videogame, withouth much complications, nor a deep and engaging story, but quite entertaining. Graphics are beautiful and animations resemble those of the classics.

    As a Way of the Samurai spin-off is interesting, but there are better alternatives in this genre. It is enjoyable, but some of its ideas need better execution.

    We are sure there's a certain audience that's going to enjoy the game, but for most users may be quite simple, and end up feeling repetitive.

    Railway Empire is a great game, but this version is not as good as others. Technical and UI issues make it less enjoyable than the original, so we would only recommend it on Switch if it’s your only option.

    It has a solid base, but poor visuals, the lack of new features and being quite predictable end up making it a game that will only appeal a very small audience.

    The business model and the online mode are the main new features and, while paying just for the games you're going to play seems fair, the online experience has not been smooth for us.

    The core idea is good and the game works pretty well... when there are people playing, which unfortunately is not very often, and the offline modes are not good enough to compensate.

    Skater XL has a great foundation to build upon, but right now that’s all that it is. While we expect further updates to bring more content to the game, we can only recommend it to those who need a new skateboarding now and cannot wait.

    The game captures the charm of Japanese landscapes and drifting culture with a solid driving experience and real car sounds, but suffers from weak visuals, repetitive drift-focused gameplay, and a limited open world that lacks polish.

    It's not an actual sequel of the previous title, so it's hard to compare. Still, we don't like the new formula as much as we liked the previous one, so we can only recommend this game to Jojo's fans.

    Ultimately, if Secret Files was a surprise for its good presentation and story, this sequel was expected to follow its trail. However this Puritas Cordis shows it is not enough to reuse the same formula over and over.

    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.

    As a game, it’s a step forward for the genre in the right direction, but the enjoyment gets lost many times in its frustrating controls.

    This is certainly not the best game that Inafune or Level-5 has ever offered, but still there are some nice features that will please its audience.

    It doesn't become the ultimate Dragon Ball game we have been expecting for years, although it brings something new and different which adds freshness to the series. Unfortunately, its great graphics cannot hide a system too simple and repetitive.
