The Plucky Squire is an extraordinary game and the amount of style, love, and craftsmanship that is on display here is enough to make even Nintendo themselves jealous. The game constantly kept me on my toes and I commend All Possible Futures for expertly weaving genres and mini-games together while also telling a cohesive and charming tale. All the elements on display in The Plucky Squire merge together to produce an exemplary package.
All games represent a new language to learn but to throw on that learning a whole sport and its quirks can feel daunting, but that’s the beauty in Video Games! When playing CFB25 you are given the tools to learn the sport more inherently, and there’s no other football game out right now that feels as fast, responsive, and dynamic as this one!
I recommend Sand Land and enjoyed the combination of different elements. The vehicles remained varied. Gameplay systems combine together to create a simple and effective piece. The open worlds are large and there’s a ton of quests to complete, and there’s a diverse set of enemies to conquer. Sand Land sustains blemishes, but it serves as a wonderful sendoff to Toriyama while being a good nostalgic romp.
There is a lot to love in Rise of the Ronin and it is a valiant first crack at an open world for Team Ninja. The gameplay and combat shine the brightest here. It does a good job of keeping you in the flow of combat. The side content is a checklist of things to do, but it serves its purpose to supplement the combat, which is a frenetic and brutal dance.
