In an era where everyone's chasing the next big thing in multiplayer, FBC: Firebreak dares to be weird, borderline, and at times deliberately off-putting. It's a game that doesn't demand your daily grind, doesn't punish you for skipping a week, and doesn't crave your undivided loyalty. And maybe that's exactly why it ends up having something to say. Maybe not much - but it says it with a style that sticks. If you've got two friends and a few hours to spare for some paranormal chaos, with zero expectations for emotional depth or narrative weight, FBC: Firebreak is well worth the price of admission.

Elden Ring: Nightreign is a bold move to expand the series through a cooperative, dynamic format. While its streamlined progression and limited exploration may disappoint purists, the addition of roguelike and battle royale elements doesn't quite fit FromSoftware's design ethos. It might draw in new players, but longtime fans may find the balance between innovation and tradition a bit off.

The stylistic choices and the intention to offer a game that challenges the conventions of the sci-fi horror genre are commendable, but the overall feeling is one of a missed opportunity. If you're a fan of the genre and looking for an experience that challenges your perceptions, KARMA: The Dark World is still a title worth exploring, but with the awareness that it never fully reaches the potential greatness it could have.

Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist totally forgoes evolving the original concept, merely repeating the same formula and gameplay situations, with improvements so bland as to be almost irrelevant. This sequel is still very strong and appealing, but chooses to live off its laurels.

The Spirit of the Samurai has a great and evocative imagery and a delightful stop-motion style. The merits end there, because the game developed by Digital Mind Games has problematic hitboxes and lacks of precision in attacks and jumps, ending up frustrating the players.

Among Ashes is one of those indie titles that should be celebrated for its great ability to break out of the box through brilliant narrative and game design solutions. However, it has to curb its ambitions because of so many technical problems due to its low budget.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is one of the best adventures in the series, capable of recreating the great atmosphere of the early days and offering players a story that fits well into the timeline. However, the first person perspective makes it lose much of the dynamism we would expect from an Indiana Jones game.

Mea Culpa is the satisfying DLC of Blashemous 2 sewn gracefully on all lovers of the main adventure. More challenging in the boss battles and more complex in the platforming stages, in the three hours or so of gameplay, the game also reveals some surprises related to the saga's history that fans cannot ignore.

Slitterhead is a graphically and structurally rather old game that fails in any way to approach either modern productions or the other glorious works of the Keiichiro Toyama. The only good cues come in the form of the ability to control different characters through possession, which make the traversal and combat dynamics varied, but the dilution and repetitiveness of certain quests tend to dull enthusiasm soon.

A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead is both a faithful transposition and a valid first-person horror. The few variations on the theme throughout the adventure force the player into an extremely compassed pace and a really high dose of patience, so it would have served the game better to have been able to have many more contrivances within it than have been seen in the films.

Nikoderiko: The Magical World is everything that nostalgic fans of old platformers need to dive back into the memories of yesteryear. It may not be among the most original games of the past decade, given the many similarities to Crash Bandicoot and Donkey Kong, but the care with which the work was created allows it to stand at more than decent levels of harmonious enjoyment.

Bloodless mixes some of the combat mechanics inspired by Sekiro, with a strong emphasis on dodges, precision movements and countermoves. Not everything works perfectly, the pacing is a bit slow at times and there is a feeling that the whole adventure is a bit too drawn out.

Konami and Bloober Team revive an invaluable piece of video game history. One of the best games of all time returns with the deflagrating power we remember so well, showing even modern audiences why it still remains the boldest and darkest psychological horror ever seen in the video game industry.

Disney's Epic Mickey: Rebrushed is a solid revitalization of a work with grand ambitions, perhaps weighed down by the high expectations surrounding its creator. While it remains a good game, straddling the line between platformer and action-adventure, the overall quality feels somewhat inconsistent. The remaster smooths out some of the game's more notorious rough edges and improves certain aspects of gameplay, but it can't fully overturn the fate of a title that needed to do much more to leave a lasting impression.

Star Wars Outlaws should have been a smaller game, without the open world requirement at all costs. It falls into the usual mistakes of previous Ubisoft games, while it gives its best in the main missions, which are well structured and able to meet the favor of fans of the saga.

Nobody Wants to Die is just a pot-pourri of themes and scenes already read in old books, seen at the cinema and played in many other modern games.
