    A very original and deep game, It's difficult, long and addictive, but the concept it's based on may not be enjoyable for everyone. Make sure you understand what it is about, and if you like this "survival" experience, then it won't disappoint.

    AAC is a pretty interesting twin-stick shooters. If you like this genre and you're looking for the next challenge, have a look at it.

    It's short, but it's also intense and a lot of fun. If you're looking for an original 2D arcade shooter, ckech this one out.

    Perhaps it is difficult to explain and understand where the strengths of the Road 96 concept lie, but we can assure you that we are facing a very good game that makes the most of its curious narrative exercise, one in which the linearity of a cinematic story is combined with the procedural nature of a 'choose your own adventure', all this while it is played with making decisions that help to build a plot that we feel as our own, although perhaps not so much. At times the game's history seems too on track for that player's agency to matter, at least that's the feeling it gets, and between that and the fictional disambiguation, which makes it fall into multiple genre clichés that prevent it getting wet in the topics it deals with, subtracts points from a work that is otherwise the most interesting that has been published this year.

    With an improved combat system, Atelier comes back with a game that will appeal at a wider audience, as well as classic fans of the series.

    WayForwards reimagines River City with a fantastic beat ‘em up, full of good ideas and visually stunning. One of those games you cannot miss if you like the genre.

    Paper Beast is weird, very weird, and we think that’s a good thing. This puzzle-based adventure is one of the most unique adventures we’ve played in VR, and we definitely recommend it if you’re looking for something different.

    One of the most interesting and fresh puzzles we've seen lately for these devices. It may look simple, but it gets harder and harder, and mastering it will take us a while.

    This is one of the best "space bounty hunter simulators" we've played in a while. A very interesting title we recommend particularly if you like 2D.

    Not everyone is going to be happy with the selection, but it is a very solid collection with plenty of options, and even rollback.

    Observer still is a great adventure, full of mystery and with a solid narrative, that looks better than ever with this version.

    It offers loads of fun and a simple but deep at the same time fighting system. Still far from perfect, but it could get closer to it with a few patches or updates.

    Wolfenstein II still is a great game, and if you’re willing to make some visual sacrifices, you’ll get an excellent portable version that showcases what the Switch is capable of.

    This is an excellent way of bringing back an amazing game, a beautiful audiovisual remake that still plays great. And being a 30-year-old game, it's certainly an achievement.

    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.

    Outrun Online Arcade is one of the indispensable downloadable games in the market. Thanks to its incredible gameplay, its addictive -although not very well taken the most of- and its features, untouched since the eighties, we can say this is currently one of the best arcade racers.

    Guitar Hero focuses on a loyal public, but limited to certain ranges. Band Hero broadens the public offering a repertory rich and varied enough to attract anyone.

    ORC: Vengeance is one of the best classic action roleplaying games in iOS to date. It has all the virtues and vices of the genre, and its five chapters offer plenty of fun. Its control systems are especially well done, and greatly adapted to a touchable experience. Maybe it is not an original game, and it lacks a multiplayer cooperative mode, but it is a greay game at a quite an affordable price.

    FEAR 2: Project Origin leaves us quite an uneven sensation. On one hand it has offered us truly spectacular and full of tension moments, very different from the ones which other games in the genre offer. Moreover, its carefully made atmosphere, fueled by the solid graphics engine developed by Monolith, make the immersion sensation total. The problem is that although FEAR 2 knows what makes itself stand out from the other shooters, it insists on offering quite generic moments during most of the game, and, worse indeed, it's not quite polished.

    Even though it might look like yet another indie game, this one is fun, addictive, original and difficult. A title you should at least try if you like platformers.

    This Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is recommended for everyone, although the gameplay differs a lot from the rest of the series.

    Not only improves on the original, but also offers a great implementation of PlayStation Move control, and enough new features to set a new landmark.

    It is not the best football game, but it is a great football game, and is on the right path to further improvements.

    If you're looking for some retro action, this is one of the best games you'll find on 3DS.

    If you like graphic adventures, you should play this one. We loved it on PC, and we love it now on consoles.

    This is a decent collection to discover some of the Blizzard classics. It’s missing many features found in similar compilations, but at least these games are now available on modern platforms.

    Despite DRM controversy, The Settlers VII manages to successfully continue the series and stay in the spot.

    It might not feel like a proper sequel, however, Below Zero does expand the core concepts and mechanics of the original to deliver a solid survival experience that does not forget about the narrative.
