Sengoku Dynasty offers players a true escape from reality, giving them the chance to build a new life in feudal Japan. Despite some unpolished mechanics and an overall slow pace, the game delivers a vast and varied gameplay experience that, with enough patience, can definitely be rewarding.

Jamboree TV adds variety to an already feature-rich title, but it does so in a way that's not entirely satisfying. It doesn’t improve the original experience, which remains limited to backward compatibility, and it introduces an exclusive mode that feels completely disconnected and is limited to just 20 mini-games. Not bad, but we were hoping for a bit more.

Wild Hearts S is a title that definitely has its merits, offering a straightforward hunting experience suitable for new players, but it absolutely needs to drop the Katana Engine once and for all in order to make the leap it truly deserves.

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers marks Leenzee's debut in the Soulslike genre, adding well-structured RPG elements and a challenging, at times frustrating, action gameplay that perfectly aligns with the genre and suits its target audience, who will undoubtedly be captivated by it.

Monument Valley III returns in widescreen format, offering a top-tier artistic experience, despite an overall duration that may be too short to be fully rewarded. The absence of the promised DLC at launch is disappointing, as it is now expected to arrive in winter 2025 along with a substantial, yet unspecified, update. Despite this, we warmly recommend it.

Ultimately, this re-release proves to be disappointing and uninspired. Despite the undeniable value of its original story and mechanics, it's hard to recommend the console version—especially to those without a strong sense of nostalgia for the game. A missed opportunity that deserved far more care and attention.

No Sleep For Kaname Date brings back the winning formula of the previous two titles, combining entertaining puzzles with an engaging story. While the plot remains simple, it is supported by creative ideas that are sure to surprise players. The puzzles, which form the core of the experience, offer variety and originality, even if the gameplay itself is beginning to feel slightly outdated. Performance on both Nintendo Switch systems is commendable, delivering solid results regardless of which console you own.

Tamagotchi Plaza features the usual charming characters the series is known for, but sadly misses the mark. It fails to offer an experience suited to its audience, with gameplay that feels designed for a completely different platform. The lack of tutorials or clear objectives means some shops require several trial-and-error attempts just to understand how they work, slowing down an already repetitive and uninspired pace, and offering very little to the player. I sincerely hope for a complete shift in both development and vision before we see more titles that could risk damaging the legacy of this iconic franchise.

The House of Da Vinci VR marks Blue Brain Games' debut in the virtual world, offering a decent puzzle-filled adventure. However, it remains too anchored in a smartphone-like logic to truly hit the mark. The quality of the puzzles encountered varies in difficulty and lacks originality, featuring a control method that is still immature and uncertain. Nevertheless, it manages to entertain the player throughout the duration of the game.

After playing through almost the entire game in a single sitting, unable to stop myself, I can confidently say that Ghost Town is one of the finest puzzle adventures in the VR scene. It comfortably takes its place alongside classics of the genre such as Myst, Riven, and the excellent Red Matter. The game manages to carve out a distinctive audience, thanks to a strong narrative and a unique gameplay style. It succeeds in being engaging without ever becoming overly complex or inaccessible. In essence, Fireproof Games accomplishes its core objective: to provide an enjoyable and rewarding experience. Over the course of its six to seven hours of playtime, it offers one of those rare titles that captivates you from the very beginning and leaves you wishing it would never end.

Steel Seed is an ambitious project that shows how the Italian indie scene is growing, with courage and a clear identity. The game has its flaws, including technical issues, some design oversights, and a narrative that struggles to fully take off, but its heart is definitely in the right place. You can feel it in the artistic direction, in the desire to offer a customizable experience to players, and in the effort to deliver something that still manages to entertain a modern audience, at least in part. It’s an experience that deserves attention, especially for those who love indie games and want to support a growing development scene. With proper patches at launch and the addition of the promised voice-overs, Steel Seed could turn out to be a pleasant surprise.

Much like Hazelight Studios' previous titles, Split Fiction left us nothing short of impressed, thanks to its varied gameplay and a technically refined presentation. This time around, Mio and Zoe dive deep into their own imagination, in a game clearly crafted for a more experienced audience. It’s fast-paced, intense, and at times downright unforgiving, punishing even the smallest misstep. A bit of frustration is to be expected. The game demands razor-sharp reflexes and a high level of coordination and understanding between players. But despite the difficulty spike, we genuinely believe the experience is more than worth it.

Monster Hunter Wilds revitalizes its followers' faith by creating an engaging and thrilling game world. While not perfect, the fun and adrenaline it provides are comparable to few other titles. If you're on the fence about buying it, we highly encourage you to try it. Join the 8+ million people who have already purchased the game in its first weeks of release, and get ready to spend countless hours hunting monsters and mastering the (exhausting and numerous) game menus. It may not be the most pleasant experience, but it will be worth it.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard is an excellent sequel to the saga, captivating me from the very first moment, just like the previous three instalments. Despite uncertain narrative and writing, the title still showcases a richly detailed level design and a varied and balanced gameplay, offering extensive character customization and a role-playing immersion as only Bioware can achieve.

Aloy's adventure towards discovery in this machine-dominated post-apocalyptic world has never looked so good. The Nixxes team has hit the mark, thanks to extensive and meticulous work that brings the title almost to the same level of quality as the sequel, making it to all intents and purposes the best possible version of Horizon Zero Dawn, expanding and improving on what already exists, with improvements also present in the soundtrack and DualSense support. If you've never played the saga, now is the perfect time to do so, and for those who already own the original title, we highly recommend the upgrade.

I could have started with this, but I didn't want to spoil the review: Super Mario Party Jamboree is essentially the ultimate Mario Party. It's like Super Smash Bros Ultimate, offering everything that made the series famous but taken to the next level. The sheer number of characters, boards, games, modes, customizations, and rewards ensures fun whether you're playing solo or in large groups. Playing alone is no longer an issue, thanks to numerous modes that allow for online play or against a competent AI that will either support you properly or offer a challenge. If you're looking for a game to play with friends, look no further—Jamboree is the answer.

If you're not a fan of Persona, I strongly doubt this title is for you, as it shares the same strengths and weaknesses as the series. But for those who appreciate it, it’s practically a must-have that will not fail to surprise and entertain the player.

The Plucky Squire captivates with its visual style, unique gameplay, engaging narrative, and charming characters. It's nearly impossible to resist the game's charm, offering about ten hours of fun and some head-scratching moments as puzzles become more complex but never too difficult. The only downside is the 3D phases, where the game doesn't particularly excel. However, the mix of styles and gameplay entertains and amazes, resulting in a magically narrated story that you'll be eager to see through to the end.

That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime: ISEKAI Chronicles is yet another commercial attempt to please anime fans, but it misses the mark in terms of gameplay, structure, and technique. Its budget nature is evident from the polygonal graphics reminiscent of a 2006 game, combined with simplified, unvaried beat-em-up gameplay and an incomplete city-building aspect. The only reason to consider purchasing it is the two original stories, which are enjoyable thanks to various character interactions and some animated scenes, but even these are passable and unremarkable. It's always a shame to reject a title with potential, but out of respect for the audience, we must.

Concord has potential but is currently too chaotic and unfinished to be enjoyable. Despite years of development, Firewalk released an incomplete product. The engine shows promise, and with a good rework, it could improve. Right now, the game is chaotic, characters don't mesh, there are no standout modes, and the price doesn't match the quality. With ongoing development and user feedback, significant changes could make it better in six months to a year. Realistically, the gaming industry's current situation makes this challenging, but if No Man's Sky could make a comeback, so could Concord. We'll have to wait for future updates.
