The truth is that I would never be so tolerant of Clive 'N' Wrench faults if I didn't know the entire context that surrounds him. But playing with everything I've exposed here, I managed to have extreme sympathy with the creator and consequently with his work. More than that, I believe there is a lot of talent behind this game, because despite the lack of polish, it really manages to get it right in several aspects. Which makes me hopeful that the game will be a relative success and we will have more Rob Wass games in the future.

Cris Tales is a pleasant surprise in many ways, the game surprises with its scale, execution and beautiful visuals. It doesn't reach the level of classics of the genre, but it has inspiration and a lot of effort behind it. After finishing the game, the feeling that remains is that I experienced a different but engaging journey, filled with characters and colorful worlds that leave a positive mark. I recommend it mainly for fans of turn-based RPGs, but I ask that you stay tuned for possible updates for the Nintendo Switch version, which currently suffers from loads that interrupt and harms the rhythm of the game.

Button City is a short game with good ideas and good moments but ultimately offers little with its content. I believe that those with a strong nostalgia for arcades or even children can have fun with the game, but overall it is an unremarkable experience. Despite this, let's be clear: it is possible to see a visible commitment from the development team to create something unique and fun, with more experience, it is possible that the studio will deliver something even better in the future.

Mario Golf: Super Rush is an extremely fun experience, as expected from a Mario sports game. The ideas that Camelot puts forward are interesting and work, creating yet another must-have multiplayer for the Nintendo Switch. If you are not used to playing with friends, the game may leave something to be desired with the amount of content, it is up to you to decide whether the promise of future updates is a valid exchange, there is always the option of waiting for the game to become more complete before buying it at launch.

Legend of Mana is a simple but unusual RPG, the non-linear progression, the combat, the stories, in every corner the game presents something peculiar, and this ends up being the best and worst of the game. The oddities make it a charming and standout experience, difficult to find in other games, on the other hand, it brings strange decisions that make progress difficult without a guide. For those who played the original and want to relive some moments, I believe that this re-release will serve them very well, bringing the game faithfully but with some improvements. For new players, it is necessary to understand the context that surrounds it and be interested in the mechanics. It seems to me like the kind of experience that can lead to one of two feelings: either you fall in love with the game's quirky approach or you simply consider it an average game.

Alba is not a revolutionary or ambitious game, but it is an enjoyable experience from start to finish. It sends a positive message while being fun, as a game originally designed for a mobile platform, it fits perfectly on the Nintendo Switch. It's a good recommendation for children up to 10 years old, but it also works for adults, thanks to the nostalgia that the game conveys in its representation of childhood.

Miitopia is a very interesting experiment and I would say that it is largely successful one, the game shows the universality of miis even years after the launch of the Wii, the creative and humorous writing is also wonderful, highlighting the more comical side of Nintendo. Unfortunately, the experience was unable to maintain my constant engagement throughout all sections, mainly due to a certain “automation” in the gameplay, creating tedious sections. The recommendation applies mainly to those who want casual fun, to play in short periods and even have fun with family members by placing their Mii in the game.

The House in Fata Morgana: Dreams of Revenants Edition is an experience that is both beautiful and painful in equal measure. The game moved me deeply, made me feel close to the characters as if they were my friends, and at the end of the experience it was hard to hold back the tears. It is not an easy recommendation, it is a long experience that requires a lot of reading, not mentioning all the the traumatic events that are narrated. But I leave my recommendation for those who enjoy a complex and dramatic story, even if you are not familiar with the genre, do not be afraid, the experience is very similar to reading a fantastic book.
