    One of the last "must-have" we'll see on Nintendo DS. It's simply one of the bests and most original SRPGs right now, with many hours of fun waiting for you and very interesting characters to lead us through the plot.

    It’s been a tough start, but this is the way to go. If they keep polishing the experience and adding content, Los Santos is going to be our home for a long time.

    Yoshi and the Mysterious Book delivers a creative masterpiece that redefines the series through its ingenious book-themed exploration. It provides exceptional variety with unique mechanics in every level, yet suffers from occasional design inconsistencies and sparse boss encounters. Despite the lack of local co-op, its charming stop-motion aesthetic and addictive replayability solidify it as a premier Switch 2 gem.

    The remake offers a captivating atmosphere and strong narrative with beautiful, detailed environments and improved character models, but its puzzles remain quite simple and the performance suffers occasional frame drops on consoles. Overall, it is a faithful update that will appeal to adventure fans new to the game despite some technical shortcomings.

    PC players can enjoy now the remake of the first entry of the franchise. It is a good port, and although the game has its flaws, it still holds up quite well.

    It feels like an update rather than a remaster, but remastered or not, it's a masterpiece you shouldn't miss.

    Tooth and Tail is one of the most original strategy games we've played in years, with great art and very clever ideas very well implemented.

    This year’s entry is a very solid football game. It includes some notable enhancements on the playable side, and it also looks great. A safe bet for football fans.

    Men of War impresses once being played. The variety of options make Men of War a title worth noting, and its graphical quality and photography work is very praiseworthy.

    This is the most polished and content-rich WWE game in years, with refined gameplay, improved animations, and a new open-world mode, The Island, adding fresh challenges. While Showcase mode lacks engaging match choices, the game excels in variety, technical execution, and depth, making it a must-play for wrestling fans.

    Charming characters, a more than excellent music, hilarious situations and lots of humour is what we'll find in this series of Monkey Island stories.

    Probably the weakest episode so far, even though it still keeps its essence and entertains. One way or another, we need to highlight its ending, telling us the final episode will be huge.

    This is a beautiful platforming adventure with very clear inspirations. It starts better than it finishes, but overall, it manages to become a memorable experience.

    Despite some minor flaws, like the exclusion of an online mode, or the absence of a story mode, Broken Destiny is one of the best fighting game in the portable console.

    A visually stunning and emotionally reflective indie adventure focused on the bond between a shadowy protagonist and a luminous dog, Koira offers a charming and metaphorical experience with simple gameplay, though it could benefit from more gameplay variety and navigational tools.

    REANIMAL delivers a stunning, fast-paced co-op horror adventure, visually captivating and brimming with conceptual power. It maintains a relentless rhythm and impressive scenario variety, especially for local play. However, its simple platforming and puzzles, alongside a broader lack of genre innovation, prevent it from truly breaking new ground.

    This is one of the best JRPG from 2018, and now it’s available on PC with all its vices and virtues. If you don’t own a Switch or prefer playing on PC, it’s worth checking it out.

    A great start for the fighting genre in PSVita and an excellent port of the original PS3 game from last November. It includes an easily forgettable touch mode, but its gameplay is great, its traditional controls are splendid and it offers lots of characters, although falls short in gameplay modes for one player.

    Yes, it is the same game we played last year, but better and bigger. Fans of tactical RPGs shouldn't miss this opportunity.

    Cryptark is a game that we've really enjoyed. It doesn't reinvent the wheel, but it doesn't have to to be an interesting challenge.

    Having pets in The Sims 4 is great news, and even if it isn't the most original expansion, it still is a good addition to the game.

    Pokémon is back with a faithful remake of the first adventure. We’ve loved going back to the original game with updated graphics and new mechanics, although we’ve found disappointing the lack of online multiplayer and a very limited endgame.

    Hironobu Sakaguchi and Nobuo Uematsu team up again to make a Japanese RPG which can be easily considered one of the best in years. It succeeds in innovating in a lot of features, with a charming gameplay that works and is very fun. It also has an epic and well-told story. A must-have for fans of the genre.

    This is a brilliant port of one of the best 3D platformer of the generation, that looks and plays incredibly well on the Switch.

    Blizzard has done a fantastic job giving Diablo II a very, very elaborate facelift, keeping the essence of one of the most influential games ever intact.

    Nidhogg 2 is a better game than its predecessor, with many changes that tweak the way we play. It's specially good if we play with someone, so think twice if you're playing on your own.

    BOXBOY! works, but it fails to surprise, and takes way too long to get to the interesting challenges.

    Knockout City is fun and accessible, and that might help it find a specific audience since those looking for a more involved multiplayer title might miss a deeper progression system.

    A must-have for golf fans, but it will be too of a simulation for novice players, as it doesn't include a comprehensive tutorial for those who have no experience in previous games.

    This is a great approach to the GTA concept, with extremely fun and different missions, and a wise use of the GamePad functions. If you really like the genre, you shouldn't miss this opportunity.
