Persona 5 Tactica is charming, fun, and original, successfully giving a fresh twist to a series that has become an omnipresent force in the Japanese gaming scene. But was it really necessary? Absolutely not.

The return to a tighter, more customizable gameplay experience that puts control firmly in the player’s hands is a clear invitation to sink a great deal of time into it once again. On the other hand, however, this new approach still closely mirrors what we’ve already seen in previous entries.

A charming, quirky, and enjoyable roguelike that stumbles over a few technical issues, which undoubtedly have a significant impact on the enjoyment of its opening hours. At the same time, its premise, gameplay, and core loop are every bit as compelling as those found in the high-quality roguelikes we’ve come to expect.

With the market already offering other titles that explore similar themes, messages, or events, the game seems to struggle to carve out a niche of its own. Its approach is more explicitly Gen Z-oriented, for better or worse, but at times this comes at the cost of feeling less realistic and, ultimately, less human.

Its evocative, intimate, dreamlike, and artistic qualities are undeniable, and they are executed remarkably well. At the same time, it is difficult to say that the experience is entirely enjoyable, owing to its underlying sluggishness and strongly cryptic approach.

Atelier Ryza 3: Alchemist of the End & the Secret Key is the pinnacle of the series—a fitting conclusion to the trilogy that delivers what may well be the most significant evolution the Atelier franchise has ever seen.

Mato Anomalies is truly an anomaly, in name and in nature. Its numerous rough edges and occasional lapses in style don’t detract from an experience that is, particularly on the narrative front, genuinely intriguing and compelling, even if its execution falls short.

A rather complex and intricate tactical RPG, one that can occasionally be obtuse in its particularities. Its various systems come together to create an experience that is almost unparalleled in terms of originality and its eclectic mix of elements, all of which feel perfectly suited to the Switch.

The gameplay itself is highly repetitive and rather unsatisfying. Exploration is kept to a bare minimum, largely due to the island’s modest size, while the cast is small and, although the cutscenes give the characters some narrative depth, the limited interactions never allow them to be explored in greater detail.

Little Witch Nobeta is fairly linear, and while it attempts to incorporate some genre staples—such as shortcuts that allow you to return to previously visited areas—these elements are largely absent and never become a central part of the experience.

Despite a few minor technical hiccups, it tells a touching story about oppression, colonization, belonging, and ultimately, humanity. It’s a small-scale title with modest ambitions, but within those limitations, it still manages to have something meaningful and moving to say.

The presentation is stunning, with the quality of its 2D artwork masterfully crafted. The interactions and cutscenes are meticulously animated and brought to life, while every color bursts from the screen with remarkable vibrancy.

As a dungeon crawler, it’s competent without doing anything particularly revolutionary, but its unique blend of genres is something you won’t find anywhere else.

Chained Echoes does things that many of its genre peers, even much bigger ones, simply don’t. It takes the best of what the genre has to offer, cuts out much of the tedious or outdated baggage, and adds something fresh and compelling to the mix. It then wraps it all in an epic story, a genuinely meaningful political and social intrigue, and a few genre clichés, creating an explosive cocktail.
