    Taito Milestones 3 offers a solid collection of games; many of which are so full of muscular man meat that you could almost smell it.

    FANTASIAN Neo Dimension is a jam-packed RPG that blends retro and modern elements wonderfully in both its presentation and gameplay. So, if you have fond memories of games like The Legend of Dragoon then you need to play this.

    Snow Bros. Wonderland is simply one of the best co-op games that you can play right now thanks to its varied and rewarding campaign as well as its wonderfully adorable presentation that's so cute, it'll make you want to clang Nick and Tom's oversized heads together.

    Although its funny characters and colourful world are welcoming, Neo Harbor Rescue Squad falls a little flat when it comes to gameplay.

    I love the gameplay that Food Boy presents but I hope that it gets iterated upon to smooth out some of its more frustrating aspects.

    Although its combat and iconic visuals are excellent, the harsh roguelike setup of Metal Slug Tactics is both unnecessary and a hindrance to the amount of fun that you'll get out of the experience. On the bright side, its clever bosses certainly pose memorable challenges.

    EcoGnomix is simply one of my favourite indie surprises of 2024 with its excellent strategic roguelike campaign that'll keep you hooked.

    Petit Island is an exceptionally cute and super-chill game where the adorable run animation alone makes it worth adding to your collection.

    If you enjoy old-school co-op games with an arcade feel then you'll absolutely love what Slam and Roll has in store for you.

    Farmagia is a cute dungeon crawler that has you control dozens of harvested battle buddies at once. Although it may look like there's a lot going on, it gets repetitive quickly and it frankly didn't do enough to keep me interested.

    Touhou Spell Carnival Limited Edition is such a wonderful package of a unique and rewarding strategic game that comes with a box full of brilliant physical extras. It's such a great set that I'm going to visit IFI's Online Store more often and see what other goodies await.

    Irem Collection Volume 2 is a pretty good compilation of a few arcade games that are all incredibly fun if you decide to play via co-op multiplayer. So, if you love classic run 'n' gun games with a little shmup action on the side then get blasting, chum!

    Goblin Slayer -Another Adventurer- Nightmare Feast is the kind of game that doesn't give a good first impression but after a while, it really opens up in impressive ways so stick to it and you'll see that it's one great SRPG.

    LEGO Horizon Adventures is a game with a very specific audience: Horizon fans who want to play a funny co-op game with their kid or, in my case, annoyingly immature life partner (me). It may not be worth its weight in gold bricks but it's a heck of a good time.

    Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake delivers the classic with an astonishing amount of upgrades that make it well-worth revisiting with its beautiful visuals, a superb new vocation, and many impactful quality of life enhancements.

    Journey to Kreisia may be a basic RPG but its story and characters really shine, especially with its inclusion of a real-world protagonist and how that affects those in the fantasy realm even if some of the dialogue will make you scratch your head.

    Odd assortment of games aside, Tetris Forever is a wonderful document for an iconic series that fans will definitely appreciate.

    Mario & Luigi: Brothership is a silly and surprisingly challenging RPG with a unique world traversal mechanic and a superb variety of puzzles. However, the unavoidable enemies and lengthy battles might put off folks who are looking for a more casual affair.

    Who would ever guess that there would be a super-fun twin-stick spin-off of an iconic shoot 'em up in 2024? Well, it's here and Raiden NOVA is one of the best surprises of the year, especially if you're a fan looking for something new.
