    Yet another jewel in Xbox Live. It is a bit stressing to be constantly killed at first, but it quickly becomes challenging and addictive, as if it were a 2D platforms Dark Souls. Its gameplay is delicious and the control is perfect. We would love to see a "metroidvania" game with this design.

    This is a great platformer, particularly for those who have been playing for a long time now.

    A great graphical adventure with an interesting story that will make you enjoy as a child while discovering the misteries of this tale. Also, it has a delighting visual design, although technically a bit poor, with mediocre animations. It is a bit easy, but the story is great and is a very recommended title for adventure lovers.

    Gravity Ghost is a nice surprise. It isn't violent, has a good story and is original, something you rarely find these days.

    Not all the games here are equally popular, but their quality is out of doubt. If you'd like to play some of the games that wrote the history of video games with some nice additions, you can't miss this collection.

    Bug Fables borrows some ideas from other games, but the execution is fantastic, making the most of them. Behind its cartoony art, lies one of the best indie RPGs of the year.

    NORCO is an exploration-based narrative adventure that truly shines thanks to its universe and characters.

    Darksiders is above all a very comprehensive game. It fits elements from many other games, without going in depth in any of them nor having its own style, but maintaining a balance which makes it a great action-adventure game.

    Soviet Assault is still an indispensable title, although the developers should have included more new features or, at least, more missions in the campaign mode.

    We’ve been pleasantly surprised with how well this game has aged. Yes, it’s short and simple, but it’s also very charming, well-designed and really well paced, leaving us with a smile when the credits roll.

    It is a very complete game, fun and addictive, but the free-to-play model is way too demanding here. We would have liked to have a version we could buy without in-app purchases and adds.

    Hybrid is refreshing, and those who are tired of playing the same kind of multiplayer game all the time, or simply those who love action multiplayer games, should give it a try. Getting used to the inability to move around freely might be difficult at the beginning, but then you find out that it's part of the gameplay and what makes it different. Everything is different in Hybrid. It's yet to be seen whether the players will embrace the idea and wait for the issues to be fixed, but the risks taken by 5th cell deserve our support.

    It's definitely something unique. We could tell you many things about it, but it's something you need to experiment and draw your own conclusions.

    Tidus and Yuna are back, and that’s always great news. This version doesn’t really offer anything new, but it’s always good to have available on new platforms, particularly on the versatile Switch.

    If you like Persona or Etrian Odyssey, this is a game you cannot miss. Even with its flaws, iit is a great way of saying goodbye to our 3DS.

    Happy Games takes us, ironically, to a dark, nightmare world where puzzles require gruesome solutions.

    A mystery adventure set in a very interesting period, that deals with important issues and makes us feel like true detectives.

    Summing up, Overlord 2 is an excellent action and strategy adventure no fan of the genre should miss. It doesn't have plenty of new features, but even the original fans will find enough charm in this title to be engaged again.

    Dontnod successfully brings back its narrative, dealing masterfully with complex topics and absorbing the player in its world.

    Wandersong proves there are still many things no one has done in a video game before. Gameplay and story-wise is great, and even though the controls still need some tweaking, it’s a game you should try if you’re looking for something original.

    It's more than a simple 'hidden objects' game, it's a tribute some nostalgic players will appreciate. On the top of that, it's a very interesting title that will keep us busy for a long while.

    FRU
    FRU is, together with Fantasia: Music Evolved, the best game for Kinect on Xbox One. It's fresh, original and fun, so if you're slightly interested in Kinect, you shouldn't miss it.

    We're really happy to have games like this brought to the West, but we're even happier because it is a great choice for RPG/strategy games fans, with plenty of characters you will enjoy playing as or against.

    Jack Lumber is a simple game but it works and it's fun and entertaining, so it's pretty much everything we can ask for. This universal app for both iPod/iPhone and iPad will definitely keep you playing, even though maybe for a slightly short time.

    This is one of the best entries of the series. It looks and sounds amazing, and it plays great as well. We miss a multiplayer mode, but other than that, it’s a fantastic Tetris experience that allows you to play this classic like you would’ve never imagined.

    It’s a little bit expensive, but it’s one of the best shoot ‘em up we’ve played in many years. It’s aimed at a very specific audience, but we think that audience will definitely enjoy it.

    Renewing the old tower defense formula and adding first-person action, the game results in a very fun experience, both single-player and online.
