    Not only does Spiritfall look sharp and stylish, its gameplay is, too, thanks to its oodles of clever skills, upgrades, and unique challenges.

    It may be very different but Wizard of Legend 2's lovely 3D visuals and slick action-packed co-op gameplay will definitely cast a spell on you.

    Missile Command Delta definitely isn't what I expected it would be but that's great because it really launched a missile straight to my heart.

    Irem Collection Volume 3 is definitely the most difficult compilation in the series so far which will delight hardcore retro gaming enthusiasts. Plus, Mystic Riders is the highlight as it's a wonderful shoot 'em up, especially with its lovely co-op gameplay.

    Fast Fusion offers a lot of fast-paced fun and is a great showcase for the power of Nintendo Switch 2 with its selection of stunning courses.

    The original is one of my favourite SRPGs of all time and FRONT MISSION 3: Remake does a decent job of modernising the gameplay. However, its downgraded visual assets often make its aesthetics feel cheap.

    With its energetically vibrant world that'll keep you smiling and clever puzzle-filled platforming, Ruffy And The Riverside has everything you'd need for an excellent 3D funfest. Plus, it's so cute that it's now one of my life goals to have a Ruffy stuffie.

    Fruitbus deserves great praise for its adorable graphics, heartfelt story, and relaxing yet entertaining gameplay. However, it should have baked in the oven a little longer while working out its oodles of glitches that frequently take away from the lighthearted fun.

    There's a lot of content in Klaus Lee - Thunderballs and its gameplay is solid and varied for sure so check it out if you want a challenge.

    With so much variety to unlock and action-packed combat that'll have you dodging and shooting like a pro, Section 13 is one great shooter.

    How 2 Escape: Lost Submarine has a very specific audience and if you're part of it, you'll be amazed with its variety of ingenious puzzles.

    Once you get past the learning phase, The Wizard of Bug doesn't do much to hold your attention but it's certainly a smart puzzler at its core.

    As the latest console release of my favourite tower defense series, Kingdom Rush Vengeance excels at providing strategic action and hilarity.

    I can't believe that a retro-inspired RPG with such a heavy emphasis on fishing could be this fun but Nice Day for Fishing is great stuff indeed.

    From its clever premise to its tactical battles and its pitch-perfect visuals to its oodles of side content, I loved every minute of Novel Rogue.

    Survival Kids may just be my new go-to co-op game thanks to its multiplayer-focused elements that really come together beautifully whenever you're playing with a friend. With lovely sights, charming characters, a silly narrator, and spot-on sound effects, it's a treat to watch, too.

    I didn't think we'd ever see Gex again but Gex Trilogy proves that this irreverent and charming series is definitely enjoyable and unique enough for today's gaming audiences. With that being said, the humour and visuals surely haven't held up as well as a gecko clinging to the ceiling.

    I had a superb time with Battle Train and can't believe how much it fits my tastes from its roguelike structure to its deep strategic gameplay and its silly premise to its wealth of unlockables. I may just have a new favourite roguelike as it chugged along straight to my heart.

    With a slew of destinations, contracts, and targets to entertain you, HITMAN World of Assassination - Signature Edition provides hours and hours of top-notch sandbox stealth gameplay so get to it and start killing, chums.

    BRAVELY DEFAULT FLYING FAIRY HD Remaster makes for a great excuse to re-play one of the best RPGs out there which takes job systems to a whole other level and delivers a top-tier battle system that's complemented with superbly attractive visuals.

    Date Everything! is a love letter to the very concept of love in all of its many forms. Try as it may, AI will literally never make something as beautiful and authentic as this. Thanks to its lovable, well-written, gorgeously designed, and impeccably voice-acted cast of characters, it effortlessly achieved a love ending with me and I think it could get one with you, too.

    I wish that Pirates VR: Jolly Roger offered lootin' and ship-captainin' because its confusin' and frustratin' adventure just isn't all that jolly.

    The blend of Survivors-like gameplay and puzzle-like inventory management makes God of Weapons stand out but it's still rather flat overall.

    With its unconventional yet immediately intuitive puzzle gameplay, Wilmot Works It Out provides a relaxing and rewarding formula indeed.

    If you're in the mood for nonogram fun with adorably rewarding unlockables after every puzzle then play Squeakross: Home Squeak Home.

    Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S is certainly the best iteration of this puzzle combination yet and it's full of line-clearing and chain-triggering fun.

    Whether you're exploring, taking on a boss, or configuring your loadout, the very authentically retro Chronicles of the Wolf has a lot to love.

    I enjoyed the overall variety within Super Technos World: River City & Technos Arcade Classics a great deal but at the same time, some of the included games are clunkers and there really aren't that many of them to begin with.

    I thoroughly enjoyed my time with The Alters, especially thanks to its blend of gameplay styles and variety of mysteries throughout. If you relate to the protagonist then it'll be a much better experience for you but keep in mind that not everyone will.

    Lost in Random: The Eternal Die is one of the best action-packed combat-heavy roguelikes you can play and with hearty challenge to spare.
