Enotria: The Last Song is a work that stands out for its visual beauty and thematic originality, but that fails to reach the necessary level of execution in its gameplay. The mask system, although innovative, is not well balanced, and the combat, an essential pillar in any Souls-like, is weighed down by imprecise controls and mechanics that limit the player's freedom. The narrative, while intriguing, fails to develop coherently, leaving the player with more questions than answers.

9 / 10.0 - Satisfactory
Sep 11, 2024

Satisfactory 1.0 is the culmination of years of development, community feedback, and constant polishing. The result is a deep, addictive and, yes, tremendously satisfying game (and pardon the pun, but there is no better way to describe it). If you're into building, optimizing or simply creating gigantic things, don't hesitate: Satisfactory is your game. It's the kind of experience that absorbs you completely, challenges you intellectually, and rewards you with the satisfaction of seeing your creations come to life.

Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP is the perfect example of how a remaster should be done. It respects the original material, significantly improves the technical section and adds content that fans will appreciate. It's a game that understands its identity and embraces it completely, offering an experience that's both nostalgic and fresh.

7.8 / 10.0 - Concord
Aug 23, 2024

Concord is shaping up to be an exciting and potentially revolutionary offering in the first-person shooter genre. With its impressive graphical quality, deep gameplay mechanics, and fresh approach to narrative, the game has a lot to offer fans of the genre. However, the price could be a hurdle, especially in a market where many successful games adopt free-to-play or more accessible monetization models. However, if you're serious about picking it up, you should know that all post-launch content in the form of maps, game modes, and characters will be free to play.

Bleak Faith: Forsaken is an ambitious and bold offering within a market saturated with Dark Souls-like games. It stands out for its suffocating atmosphere, enigmatic world, and intricate combat system, providing an experience that will attract followers of the genre. However, it is not without imperfections. Directional issues, some mechanics that could be improved, and certain technical aspects may cause frustration for less experienced players in the genre.

Although it may grate on the most nostalgic players, the truth is that Contra: Operation Galuga is a good reinterpretation of the original classic with enough new features to keep things interesting. The story mode does its job, although it slows down the frantic pace of the game, while the extra modes are a nice addition to get more out of it and satisfy the more demanding players. Meanwhile, for those who are looking for a lesser challenge, they can always switch to an easier game mode. Contra: Operation Galuga delivers on its adaptation, so let's hope that they don't stop here and continue with new reinterpretations of one of the most iconic sagas in the world of video games.

8 / 10.0 - Pacific Drive
Feb 24, 2024

The premise of Pacific Drive is unique and original in many ways, although in others it can be a bit tedious and tiresome. It is a game in which we must be patient and not go crazy, because it is better to go little by little so as not to fall into despair. Being a first-person survival rogue-lite, it has its own twist and nothing will be the same in every exploration, but for my taste a third-person option would have been good for it.

9.6 / 10.0 - Alan Wake 2
Oct 28, 2023

Alan Wake II is the big surprise of the year, a title that gets fully into the fight of the GOTY 2023 and elevates the Survival-Horror genre to another level. A never-before-seen level where I can only pour praise on it. If you are afraid this game is not for you, but if it is not the case I recommend that you sit back and enjoy it. Thank you Remedy.
