A VR tower defense game? If implemented like Towers & Powers, the results are satisfying. JetDogs Oy's title offers tried and true mechanics with strategic construction elements. The divine nature of our avatar and VR's immersive participation make the experience even more engaging and fun. Recommended for its immediate and enjoyable nature.

Yes, Hidden Through Time 2: Myths & Magic impressed me, despite not having an overly complex gameplay. Sometimes, simplicity is enough to create a carefree and fun experience. Rogueside's production is a convincing pastime, perfect for relaxing without too many expectations. Even if you finish the four worlds quickly, the level editor offers many more hours of fun.

You can undoubtedly tell an interesting story without elaborate gameplay, and that's what Gray Down manages to do. Father Abraham's story keeps the player's attention but sidelines the pure gameplay aspect. The Interactive Stone production arrives on console perhaps too late, making the gameplay mechanics feel outdated. It's playable but may disappoint those seeking a more layered and longer title.

With unique ideas, Loot River is an interesting roguelike with a distinct personality. Straka Studio effectively combines action, RPG, and puzzle elements, but the challenge level is too unbalanced, and the progression feels sparse. It's suitable for those who love worthy challenges and have a lot of patience.

Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader faithfully digitizes the Games Workshop tabletop RPG, but this fidelity can be overwhelming for non-fans. Once you overcome the learning curve and technical issues, it delivers a satisfying experience that does justice to the grim universe of Space Marines, heretics, and demons.

I want to trust Born of Bread, especially with its launch today, and hope the development team quickly fixes the issues. Despite some annoying problems, this unique and fun production deserves a chance. With its successful graphics, interesting gameplay, and solid story, Loaf and company offer an RPG that's not overly complex but solid. Let's hope for a quick patch to resolve the coding issues.

If you're looking for a VR successor to Ace Combat, Project Wingman: Frontline 59 might disappoint due to its short VR duration. However, it's a convincing and fun arcade flight-sim with good longevity. Some missions are too long, and the AI is less effective, but it's a strong alternative to Bandai Namco's series.

With Persona 5 Tactica, SEGA and Atlus continue to exploit the adventures of the Phantom Thieves, delivering a tactical RPG that's at times essential but still fun. This new foray into alternate universes may not rival the original in writing and mechanics, but it's a well-written and mature story with fun and well-polished gameplay. A tasty appetizer that eases the wait for the future of the series.

With Bang-On Balls: Chronicles, Exit Plan Games has created a fun and entertaining first title, well put together despite not being revolutionary. Bob's adventure will win you over with its absurdity and quirky presentation. It's a visually charming and satisfying 3D platformer, offering a delightful dose of good humor.

I won't deny that Worldless made me incredibly frustrated, as it quickly undermines the excellent work Noname Studios achieved. The sudden and inexplicable increase in difficulty halfway through overshadows the excellent level design and original combat system. Despite this, Worldless is a splendid metroidvania with stimulating progression and an outstanding artistic direction. Recommended for genre fans, though be prepared for its flaws.

Unfortunately, early fears about Ufo Robot Goldrake: Il Banchetto dei Lupi have materialized. Endroad's work is not the masterpiece Nagai's fans deserve. Simple and straightforward, it manages to be passable, but given its name's importance, it should have soared higher. Hardcore fans might still enjoy it despite its flaws.

With Disgaea 7: Vow of the Virtueless, Nippon Ichi returns to the series' tactical RPG roots, addressing the issues of Defiance of Destiny and delivering a less forgiving title. It offers a multifaceted and challenging experience, delighting fans with countless hours of fun. Though not perfect, it stands out in the series.

I admit, when I reached the credits and realized that AstralShift wasn't a Japanese team, I couldn't help but applaud even more for their work on Little Goody Two Shoes. The production successfully misleads and tricks the player from start to finish, creating a unique horror adventure. Though it has a slow start and occasionally unclear puzzles, if you have the patience to reach one of the multiple endings, you'll surely recognize Elise and company's personality.

What happens if we transport a 1985 gameplay to modern gaming machines? Air Twister refreshes the concept of Space Harrier effectively, adding numerous side activities to counter the short longevity of old arcade productions. Though not revolutionary, Yu Suzuki's new work is a successful homage to this old way of gaming, simple but still fun. If you loved Space Harrier, Air Twister will likely win your heart, despite its essential presentation.

Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord didn't manage to break the curse of similar tie-ins. Despite its charming franchise and convincing gameplay mechanics, the monotonous cooperative experience (both online and offline) flattens the game's initial promise. A more story-driven approach would have been preferable. Hopefully, future updates will improve the experience.

Despite its limits, Journey to Foundation is a convincing and heartfelt homage to Isaac Asimov's universe. While individual gameplay elements aren't outstanding, their combination creates an engaging narrative adventure with replayability.

Stray Souls is a bad game without any excuses, squandering its interesting premise in minutes. With incomprehensible design choices, a nonsensical script, and buggy gameplay, Jukai Studio's debut is forgettable. A failed horror game on all fronts, unable to create the disturbing atmosphere it aimed for. Maybe next time.

Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol.1 showcases Konami's decline as a reputable video game publisher. Priced unjustifiably high compared to its actual content, the collection offers no significant improvements over the originals. If the documentary additions are the highlight, something has clearly gone wrong. Wait for a substantial price cut, even if you're a die-hard Snake fan.

Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged doesn't do much to surpass its predecessor's solid foundation. Apart from the introduction of jumping and car bumping, there's little new. It's a carefree, colorful, and fun arcade racing game, but feels more like an update than a new chapter. Fans of the first game will enjoy it, but those seeking innovation should look elsewhere.

Kill It With Fire VR is simple and relies on a basic concept with bizarre methods to achieve its goal. Despite its comic potential, its short longevity and quickly exhausted potential make it a forgettable pastime in the current complex VR landscape.
