75 / 100 - Kao the Kangaroo
May 27, 2022

Kao the Kangaroo is a good 3D platform game, offering just the right amount of fun for those who like the genre. However, it is relatively short and easy, being aimed more at a younger audience. Also, some annoying bugs need to be fixed.

75 / 100 - Soundfall
May 23, 2022

Soundfall is a game that makes an excellent first impression, but it ends up becoming boring throughout its numerous stages. Despite being extremely challenging, its RPG side requires unnecessary grinding. Co-op, while being nice, can be frustrating for those who want to achieve the perfect scores.

Horizon Forbidden West is a masterpiece. The foundation that Horizon Zero Dawn has laid is improved in every way, whether it's gameplay or story. We have amazing graphics, charismatic characters, an intriguing plot and an addictive, varied and challenging gameplay.

The King of Fighters XV improves on what was presented in its predecessor, especially the graphics and the online netcode. However, the absence of some classic fighters is notable. And mechanically speaking, don't expect anything too different from KOF XIV.

Asterix & Obelix: Slap them All! is a simple beat'em up with magnificent graphics. Unfortunately, although beautiful, it is repetitive and becomes boring easily.

70 / 100 - Back 4 Blood
Oct 25, 2021

Back 4 Blood has many frustrating moments with its numerous hordes and unbalanced difficulty spikes. Besides, it's quite repetitive and has a weak story. Its card system only starts to get more interesting after practically finishing the campaign at least once. In the end, Back 4 Blood is only suitable for those looking for a cooperative experience and who would overlook the points mentioned.

Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl is clearly a clone of Smash Bros. which ends up pleasing for its solid gameplay and flawless online. However, the single-player content is basically non-existent and the multiplayer is very competitively oriented – those looking for something "chaotic" may be disappointed.

Quake is one of the best games of all time and the remaster basically offers everything you could wish for. However, the controls may displease hardcore gamers.

Kena: Bridge of Spirits is a great game. Beautiful graphics, good gameplay and interesting mechanics. It has some minor problems, but nothing that affects the whole title.

Sonic Colors: Ultimate is a great game, focused on the action that really matters for Sonic and with interesting gameplay mechanics. There are some bad things and cutscenes with weird graphics, in addition to being relatively short. However, there's plenty of optional content that makes up for that.

Like the other games in the series, Life is Strange: True Colors is a unique, exciting and rewarding experience. Unfortunately, the game suffers with a problematic technical performance and some bugs.

80 / 100 - Blue Fire
Aug 10, 2021

Blue Fire is a successful mix of established games. It is highly recommended for any fan of 3D platform, adventure and exploration games. The combat, however, could be more interesting.

The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles is a good collection of two games in the series that visit the distant past of an ancestor of Phoenix Wright. That said, many parallels to the original games are created – which can be seen as a good or bad thing depending on your point of view. Regardless, the cases themselves remain intriguing and entertaining. The only problem is that they are 3DS remasters and, consequently, the graphics aren't so good.

The Mr. X Nightmare DLC has amazing additions that enhance the overall package. The three new playable characters are unique and fun, and the Survival mode is awesome as well. It just doesn't get a maximum score because completing the main campaign (again) with the three characters as if they were "simple skins" is not the same thing as a campaign that could have been designed exclusively for them.

50 / 100 - Gensou Skydrift
Jul 5, 2021

Gensou Skydrift is another Mario Kart clone, but with strange commands and horrible graphics.

Touhou Hyouibana Antinomy of Common Flowers is a simple fighting game and nothing more. It has a good soundtrack and mechanics that any player can master. Its biggest flaw is perhaps this simplicity that quickly becomes monotonous.

Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX is a great remake of a Master System classic. The game respects its origins, providing a modern look without messing with the source material too much, but at the same time adding new features like some levels. Perhaps its only problem is just that – the total content offered by the package was considerably large in the 1980s, but it is small by today's standards. Either way, you should check it out either for nostalgia or for those who want to know SEGA's forgotten mascot.

Final Fantasy VII Remake is a must-have game for any player. Intergrade further enhances this package, offering a very polished technical look with beautiful graphics. The novelty is the Episode INTERmission which, despite not being exactly mandatory, offers a new story, some new elements in combat and plenty of challenges. It's not exactly short in content, but its price is slightly above what it offers.

Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection is a must-have collection for those who have never played one of the best action series. However, it is clear that many aspects have aged badly, such as the camera and graphics, and could have been polished in this collection. In that light, Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection offers only the bare minimum you would expect from a remaster.

Capcom Arcade Stadium is a good collection and allows you, in a way, to choose which titles you want in different packages. However, the list of famous games that are missing is remarkable and an online multiplayer is also lacking.
