The biggest drawback is the price tag of fourteen euros. Ten games seems quite a lot at first, but they are still arcade games. These are games that are therefore often very difficult or very short. For this price you do not get the best experience, mainly due to the different resolutions and the fact that they are less suitable for handhelds. You will encounter a lot of black bars and they are games that have not been improved for the platform. It is a collection that is interesting if you are sure that there are several games that you would like to spend some more time on. Taito Milestones 2 is a collection that is technically well put together, bundles various genres and provides access to several classics for the enthusiast who knows them.

It's a huge technical achievement and graphically this is one of the better NES titles. The gameplay is solid, deep and very extensive. It's a game that you keep playing and that can certainly not be said about every NES title these days. For the NES owner, this is certainly an interesting game to actually get on cartridge.

Mondealy is six hours long if you don't push through the dialogues too quickly and that's a lot of value for a game that only costs a tenner. The story, the characters and the gameplay are all very cool and the finish is of an unprecedented high level.

Do My Best knows how to create a great game with The Bookwalker: Thief of Tales with a lot of original ideas and combinations of elements. The world and story is super interesting. You read all the dialogues here and you want to skip as little as possible here. The puzzles and gameplay is not super complicated, but this keeps the pace of the story nice. Each of the six books is about an hour of fun and this takes a little longer if you really try to check everything. A great game, especially when you consider that the studio is only two strong. Highly recommended and I'm really looking forward to the next game from this studio.

Park Beyond is a good first attempt from the makers of Tropico. The base is very entertaining and you can find quite a lot of entertainment here. The eight missions give the player a nice full introduction to all elements and the game is certainly not easy. The game uses Unreal 4 and you can certainly see this. But the interface holds the game back considerably when it comes to building roller coasters, roads or complete buildings.

Puzzle Bobble Everybubble is therefore a section that neatly ticks off all the options you would expect from a new Puzzle Bobble game. But the new additions make the game feel a lot harder and more rushed than before. The game contains tons of levels, but offers little extra around it to give you a nice goal to go through it all. With only two modes, you have little to choose from. It remains Puzzle Bobble and the formula is still entertaining after all these years, but it manages to surprise or innovate little.

Colossal Cave relies heavily on the nostalgia and brand awareness of the original. It is a game that is very difficult to play without this remake. Unfortunately, the transition to 3D makes the game less accessible and in many cases even more frustrating. Listing the lyrics will be a trip back to the past for fans of the original, but it quickly becomes very irritating, especially in the menu. A VR update is planned for this year, based on the PC VR version. But after the few hours with this game in "normal" 3D and the fact that the PC VR version solves few of the problems, this is a game I won't be playing in PS VR 2.

Despite the negatives and criticisms of the game, this is still one of the best RPGs you can currently play on the Nintendo Switch. The game looks beautiful, tells eight interesting stories with eight different heroes and play styles and is accompanied by a wonderful soundtrack. The world now rewards the player much more for exploring and the grinding has been made a little less painful in this title.

Gunscape looks and sounds just like the classic first person shooters Quake, Doom and Wolfenstein. The nostalgia is strong with this title, but unfortunately Gunscape is a title that we cannot recommend. There are much better options available where players can create their own levels. Making a level is very easy, but even the creators have a hard time showing how fun levels should look like. The need for a Nintendo Online subscription ensures that this is a game that will not be picked up by many people so quickly. Unfortunately, this is something that is very important in a title that is all about building a community that creates, shares and plays levels.

Forspoken divides players. Some are disappointed others see the big plus. The game takes a lot of time to get going, but you can almost finish this game under 15 hours. But you can easily put in four times as many as you want. I see this as a plus. The player decides how much time he wants to put into it. You haven't combed every corner and taken on every side mission, but you've had a great journey. The game shows at various times what a PS5 title should look like. The highlights feel very cool and the game manages to successfully combine many elements.
