Moons of Darsalon knows exactly what it wants to offer: a modern experience inspired by retro gaming. However, this nature makes it a niche product, not suitable for all players. The high difficulty, unreliable AI, and some technical limits might discourage less patient players. On the other hand, those who love challenges and references to '80s classics will find a small independent gem in this game.

However, the lack of innovation, repetitive gameplay, and dated technical execution make it a missed opportunity to expand the franchise's audience.

70 / 100 - Spirit Mancer
Nov 28, 2024

Spirit Mancer captures attention with its artistic style and frantic combat but lacks innovation in later stages. The narrative, despite a good start, remains flat, and the card system has the potential to be much deeper. Hack-and-slash fans will appreciate it, but it doesn't stand out compared to other games in the genre.

70 / 100 - VED
Nov 18, 2024

Despite its flaws, VED has the potential to captivate with a thoughtful combat system and noticeable graphic style. However, the subpar plot and dialogue prevent the game from shining as it should. The overall experience, unfortunately, ends up being more forgettable than it deserves.

Clock Tower: Rewind isn't for those seeking modern, fast-paced horror. It's a gem for those who love classic charm. WayForward's dedication shines through in this re-release, preserving the game's vintage soul for a new generation. Recommended for fans of point-and-click adventures who appreciate the nostalgic challenge.
