MachineGames expands The Great Circle with a new puzzle-focused side adventure, offering a very good reason to revisit one of the best games of 2024. The Order of Giants is a valuable addition to a fantastic game. While it is relatively short, the scenarios feel linear, and it does not present anything new in terms of gameplay, I think it is still enjoyable.

Otherwise, it achieves its goal of offering a fun, polished experience that stays true to its motto, reminding us that even in the most chaotic situations, it's always a great day to go fishing.

Dotemu, Guard Crush, and Supamonks have pulled out all the stops with a beat 'em up that marks an evolution in the genre thanks to a solid combat system and top-notch technical features.

The Necromancer's Tale is an RPG that moves away from power fantasy to rely on a masterful narrative where every decision has its price. It is an RPG experience that demands time, attention, and setting aside preconceptions such as the heroic figure of the protagonist. It is a title that offers a story that simmers slowly, where every decision—even the most insignificant ones—can have a notable impact on the story.

With a minimalist premise, Shotgun Cop Man offers fast-paced gameplay with simple mechanics where you have to bring Satan to justice with a shotgun. It's an unusual and very unique game that offers a highly entertaining experience, both for those who want to spend a few hours jumping around and eliminating demons, and for those looking for a hardcore platformer. DeadToast, instead of betting on something bigger and more ambitious, chose the path of minimalism, giving life to a very fun and adrenaline-filled proposal.

A video game that definitely does not reinvent the wheel, but neither does it seek to do so.

Francis Coulombe surprises us with Look Outside, a survival horror RPG that uses a simple premise to construct a disturbing, grotesque, and uncomfortably wonderful experience. It makes excellent use of its resources to invite us to discover the mystery that lies outside, with decisions that can change the course of events and characters that are as disturbing as they are endearing. All of this is packaged with a grotesque aesthetic that is graphic at times, while at other times leaving things to our imagination.

Knights in Tight Spaces, Ground Shatter's new work, is a fantastic version of Fights in Tight Spaces that renews the formula while maintaining the essence of the original work. The most remarkable thing is that despite the changes, Ground Shatter manages to maintain the spirit with which it was conceived: to offer combat situations that resemble tactical puzzles that make us feel like geniuses when we solve them.

Garcia Hotspur and Johnson return to the wanderings with Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered, a very good remastering that keeps the 2011 cult experience intact. A game with an author's imprint marked to the core deserves to remain as it was conceived by two geniuses such as Suda51 and Mikami. Because it is precisely all the good and the bad, its strengths and weaknesses, that make Shadows of the Damned a timeless cult videogame and an experience difficult to forget.

Nerial leaves cards and cheating aside to bring us The Crush House, a very original reality show simulator that reminds us that keeping everyone happy is impossible. The most interesting part is in the story, which is revealed little by little and, although it is predictable, it has two endings, which gives the title a certain replayability. In short, an ideal videogame to bring out the Kubrick that hides inside each of us.
