Classic JRPG with well-proven concepts that tells its story with heart and shines in the Definitive Edition with new content

Crazy RPG with a loving game world and trashy charm, in which the graphics no longer look fresh.

Lovingly overwork of a classic with chic technique, but also a few minor flaws.

Wonderful fusion of Musou and Fire Emblem, that is superbly balanced and very extensive.

Charming and humorous action RPG with a loving world, whose new puzzle combat system could have used more variety.

81 / 100 - Alien: Isolation
Dec 12, 2019

Atmospheric and detailed implementation of the SciFi film template, in which the alien gets a bit annoying in the last third

8 / 10.0 - Slitterhead
Nov 4, 2024

Slitterhead is a divisive horror game that will either fascinate or frustrate players. Its unique blend of action, body horror, and surreal storytelling, coupled with a haunting soundtrack by Akira Yamaoka, creates an unforgettable, albeit flawed, experience.

8 / 10.0 - Infinity Nikki
Dec 4, 2024

Despite its gacha elements, Infinity Nikki is a delightful open-world adventure with a unique focus on fashion, charming world, and relaxing atmosphere.

The fighting game community is currently plagued by a problem: the game mechanics are being softened to appeal to casual players. But neither pros nor casuals want that. The latter would be more than happy with more solo game modes. Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves doesn't offer these in a satisfactory form, but that aside, it feels like an alternative at this point. It is a challenging option that will delight hardcore fans in particular with its high learning curve and in-depth game mechanics. Despite audiovisual restraint and uninspired solo content, the pugilist impresses with great playability and tactical variety. A bold game that deliberately goes against current trends in the genre.

Excellently playable anniversary of the Ys series with brisk action and some serious dramaturgical weaknesses.

Exciting historical thriller with an atmospheric game world and a lot of humour, which takes away the technical legacy of the original version.

78 / 100 - Mega Man 11
Oct 4, 2018

Very good port of a classic into the modern era. Veterans of the series waited for that but for new fans, Mega Man 11 lacks innovation.

Good bundle with two absolute action classics, which were lovelessly ported to the 4K era.

Great Musou in terms of gameplay, that tells the story before Breath of the Wild, but also has to struggle with technical problems.

76 / 100 - No More Heroes 3
Aug 27, 2021

Simple action-adventure with wild pop culture references, which scores with lively fights, but bores with a dull open world.
