Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered invites us to an epic journey in a post-apocalyptic world more beautiful than ever, perfect for new players, but with no new features for veterans. Those who already have the original, and want to see it in all its splendor, will be able to update it for a small fee. For its part, the remastered version includes the expansion, which offers more than 40 hours of action and adventures. In any case, I don't think an upgrade was necessary. The game remains just as colorful and fun as before.

With Nikoderiko: The Magical World, VEA Games draws attention with a platformer that shows clear nods to the best exponents of the genre, but stands out for its own virtues. Those who enjoy challenges, and are not afraid to repeat levels over and over again until they are perfect, and miss the golden age of Rayman, Crash and Donkey Kong, will find Niko and Luna's adventure a great proposal.

Until Dawn, Supermassive Games' classic looks and feels amazing with a remake that brings it up to modern standards but falls short on interesting additions. Ballistic Moon updates the visuals and brings back the spectacularity of yesteryear, especially in terms of real-time lighting and textures in general, making this the best way to enjoy the title, at least for those who didn't play it in 2015.

Yes - Iron Meat
Sep 26, 2024

Iron Meat, the run and gun by Ivan Valeryevich Suvorov and Retroware, recaptures the essence of Contra by inviting us to save the planet from an invasion of mutant flesh monstrosities. A proposal that boasts a polished gameplay that has nothing to envy to the classics of the nineties that does not come to revolutionize the genre but, at the end of the day, it is not necessary either since playing it is fun and challenging.

Byte the Bullet, the action game from Lion Ant Games puts us in the role of an antivirus that must clean all the parts of an infected pc and, on the way, celebrates the great classics of yesteryear. A great job, fun, challenging and beautiful. But above all, so original that everyone should take a moment to play it.

Yes - Astro Bot
Sep 5, 2024

Astro Bot, Team Asobi's platformer, reaffirms what was seen in Astro's Playroom, reaching excellence and positioning itself at the top of the genre as one of the best games of the year. Team Asobi's work offers an exquisite gameplay and takes care of every single aspect that makes it up. This is not a good attempt or a great contender for the crown. On the contrary, we are talking about one of the best platformers of the last 10 years.

Tomba! The memorable PlayStation platformer is back with a remaster that does its job very well and gives the Whoopee Camp franchise a new lease of life. The Tokuro Fujiwara-designed game continues to stand out among modern offerings. It does so thanks to its colorful scenery, ingenious level design and the particular charm of our pink-haired protagonist. The 2.5D gameplay has aged like a fine wine and, although it does not reach the excellence of other titles by the author, it is a beautiful chapter in the history of gaming that is worth visiting.

Yes - Abathor
Jul 25, 2024

Abathor, the action-platformer developed by Pow Pixel Games is a tribute to arcade classics and a great reason to celebrate for fans of the genre. Abathor squeezes but doesn't choke. It's challenging and can get frustrating, but the sense of gratification that comes from beating a tricky boss or level is priceless. It is an ideal game to share with friends, but it can also be enjoyed (and a lot!) alone. Undoubtedly, one of the best proposals of modern action and platform.

Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle, the battle royale previously exclusive to Stadia, debuts on all platforms with an ideal proposal to play a few games when time is short. Fans of Bandai Namco's official mascot will surely be more than happy to see him back. The rest of the audience, however, will probably quickly run out of reasons to keep playing after a handful of hours.

Lords of Exile, the 2D adventure from Squidbit Works, captures the essence of playing a classic from the NES catalog but with some of the advantages of modern gaming. A fun arcade game that captures the essence of the classics of yesteryear without tripping over the layers of artificial difficulty of those titles. Throughout 8 levels it presents a simple and straightforward challenge, with a linear progression and a good dose of old-school action.

Valfaris: Mecha Therion, the new work of Steel Mantis, is the sequel to the acclaimed Valfaris that bets its entire legacy on a radical change of genre. It is one of those titles that we can leave installed on our hard disk since the space it occupies is well used. Besides, bursting mutant insects or battling a colossal boss to the sound of the best heavy metal is epic at any time, day or season of the year.

World of Horror, Paweł Koźmiński's title proves that you don't need Unreal Engine 5 and volumetric lights to torment the heart of a horror fan. A game that handles subtleties well and mixes them with a dash of Junji Ito-style gore, with simple but gripping stories, enhanced by the vulnerability of our characters and the consequences we will have to face after every decision.

TMNT: Shredder's Revenge - Dimension Shellshock manages to perfectly capture an elusive essence that was lost in 1993. The one that dozens of other games tried to recreate without success. Working together with Dotemu paid off, delivering not only one of the best entries in the series, but the definitive Ninja Turtles videogame.
