    Zoink shifts from a narrative-driven 3D adventure to a roguelite with a dynamic combat system, detailed progression mechanics, and strong visual identity, though the repetitive enemy encounters, overreliance on randomness, and weaker story focus may deter some fans of the original.

    It is not as surprising as the first game, but it is again a fun, complete and well made arcade game that becomes one of the best Arcade titles of the year.

    Counter-Strike: Global Offensive brings back all the fun and entertainment we've always gotten from this series. More action, with updated visuals and a great price. We would have liked some good new additions, since the new modes are no rival for the classic competitive one. CS: Global Offensive doesn't take the franchise a step further, but it still is Counter-Strike.

    The Last Campfire gets lost in its good intentions. There’s a sense of shallowness, and overall it feels like a very simplistic adventure that, even if enjoyable, doesn’t seem offer anything special.

    Iconoclasts is a beautiful 2D action platformer. It doesn’t offer anything new, but it's very well crafted and charming.

    If you have a 3DS, if you like music games and if you are a Final Fantasy fan, it's one of those games you cannot miss.

    Although Pokemon Platinum doesn't offer any relevant new feature in the series, it is still a fun and solid game, with plenty of options and a replayability factor which will keep us many hours engaged.

    Donkey Kong returns in an outstanding game that, even though is not as surprising or as fresh as the Wii version, becomes one of the best 2D platformers.

    Valkyria Chorinicles 2 is one of those PSP games every player should try, regardless his reluctance to the genre.

    BlazBlue for PSVITA is as good as in the rest of consoles. It has a great fighter roster, plenty of game modes, a good story and a captivating visual design. But especially, its gameplay is deep and engaging. If you can buy the PS3 or 360 version we still recommend them as you can use an arcade stick with them, but if you want to fight wherever you are this should be your choice.

    It is incredible to see No Man’s Sky running on Switch with this level of quality. Sure, it doesn’t look as good as other platforms and there isn’t multiplayer available, but the experience remains virtually intact.

    A surreal and thought-provoking RPG that blends minimalist visuals, clever puzzles, and an enigmatic story full of metaphors and psychological depth, with improved combat balance, interface, and accessibility options that make this remaster the best way to experience its cult classic charm, despite its short duration and inconsistent Spanish translation.

    Invisible, Inc. is a great game, and a better choice if you enjoy slow-paced experiences. It's addictive and literally endless, so if you like the concept, it's a must-have.

    Wario Ware: Do it Yourself is, for sure, a dream come true for many, as it allow us to develop our own minigames. But still, it has some limitations.

    Gears of War: Ultimate Edition is closer to a remake than a remaster. The adventure still is great, the gameplay doesn't get old, and this version also adds tons of new contents. If you haven't played the game yet, you have to; if you have, there are new reasons to play it again.

    A true jewel. A fun, entertaining and very complete game, almost unlimited in duration and with great visual. Can be considered a must-have for iOS.

    This is a strange concept that works great. This “pinballvania” offers a unique experience for those who are looking for a different platformer.

    C&C is back with a great remaster that shows how the series hold up 25 years later. Some edges can be rough, but the core experience remains as fun as it was.

    A hilarious and addictive online cooperative shooter that improves the original game with a new perspective, more content, and cross-play. It offers pure and simple fun with friends, a great gameplay and strategic touch, and a good graphical and sound presentation. It could use more variety in enemies, biomes, and missions, but it is one of the best PvE games of the season.

    This episode of the Ys series is a great example of what a RPG game is supposed to be. It offers the depth some users look for, and also the accessibility some others do. A great addition to the PS Vita's catalogue.

    This is a great shoot 'em up you shouldn't miss if you like the genre. A great example of how to make a game challenging and rewarding.

    Laser League is a great game, with a very original and fun concept and greatly executed. It needs new modes, but if the community remains active we’re sure they’ll arrive.

    It Takes Two takes a hit to run on Switch, but it still works and looks well, becoming a solid choice if you don’t own another platform or want the portability.

    Better late than never. Four years after its original release, the Champion Edition takes Street Fighter V where it should have always been –fighting to be one of the best and most complete experiences in its genre.

    Watch Dogs 2 is a really good game, better than its predecessor in every single aspect. It also carries some of the issues of the original WD, like the car handling, but it still is a solid adventure with a lot of content and great moments.

    Dance Central is probably the best dancing game ever made, as it captures all of our movements, allowing us to dance with our legs and feet. But it not only has a technology that works, but also a great presentation and lots of content.

    This new edition takes important steps forward. The tires are more important and the different types are more noticiable when driving, and the addition of DRS and more strategy options changes the way to race. It has also added much needed features like the safety car or the possibility to manage the whole Grand Prix event, from the free training durint Friday to the race on Sunday. It still has plenty of room for improvement and it is not the perfect simulator yet, but Formula 1 fans will be pleased again by this product.
