60 / 100 - Slitterhead
Nov 4, 2024

Although Slitterhead has a nice story, the game makes a generic and crazy mix of Parasyte with a Beyond: Two Souls flavor. With plastered gameplay, half-graphics, a very weak battle system, and poor audio, this game isn't worth your time or your money.

80 / 100 - Dustborn
Aug 14, 2024

Although Dustborn has dubious combat and some technical problems, the game has an excellent and flashy plot, a fact that will make you stay tuned until the last chapter of the story.

Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden disappoints a bit with its technical problems and lack of simple features, but DON'T NOD has managed to create a magnificent and addictive world that makes the player want to go all the way to the end – after all, you are responsible for the fate of Red and Antea.

All the extras greatly increase the lifespan of the game and manage to delve the player even deeper into the narrative in an extraordinary way.

Tales of Arise: Beyond the Dawn delivers a lot of extra content and manages to delve even deeper into the history of the people of Dehna and Rena, making it a must-have DLC for those who loved spending hours on end helping Alphen and his friends in the main campaign.

55 / 100 - Quantum Error
Oct 30, 2023

Quantum Error's proposal was interesting, but the final product delivers a confusing and nonsensical narrative, harsh gameplay, poor level design, and generic enemies. Only with a good promotion and many fixes for you to risk venturing into the Nomad complex.

Layers of Fear is a psychological horror game that is really scary, but as time goes by you start to miss something. That doesn't make it bad, mainly because it contains extra stories to entertain the player. However, a little more action here wouldn't hurt anyone.

70 / 100 - Nocturnal
Jun 15, 2023

Nocturnal is a beautiful and charismatic game, but the lack of content, the short duration and the repetition end up making the title expendable at the current price. It's better to wait for a sale.

74 / 100 - Trinity Trigger
Apr 26, 2023

Trinity Trigger is a short RPG, visually beautiful, with a cool proposal, but it is not thrilling. It's a title that can be exciting at first, but it starts to get repetitive and doesn't do enough to keep it going until the end.

Fatal Frame: Mask of Lunar Eclipse is a game that needs some technical tweaks in the gameplay, but overall it delivers a good story, beautiful graphics and an atmosphere of tension that I haven't felt since Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly. What Maiden of Black Water failed to bring in its return to Sony consoles, this title did.

Tales of Symphonia Remastered tries to bring all the experience lived by the players in the past. However, the dated work fails to deliver what it promises and ends up serving only as an average game, without the true brilliance that the franchise has.

90 / 100 - Atomic Heart
Feb 20, 2023

Atomic Heart has several fun elements that keep the player hooked from start until the end. Although it has some technical problems, they are passable in the face of the final work, which delivers much more than players expect. Diverse combat, lots of exploration and clever puzzles are just some of the points that make this game a must-have for PS5 owners.

74 / 100 - Evil West
Dec 5, 2022

Despite technical issues, Evil West manages to be fun for its exaggerated gameplay and the large amount of combat options. However, don't expect much more than that.

The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me is a good game to close the first season. Even with changes that are not so significant, the title shines in the graphics aspect by bringing more natural expressions, improved effects, and a disturbing narrative.

If you've never had the chance to play any game from the Ys series, it's time to give yourself a chance to do this. With many hours of duration, fun gameplay and dynamism thanks to its excellent performance, Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana easily becomes one of the best action RPGs on the console.

80 / 100 - The Chant
Nov 6, 2022

The Chant is a game with a psychedelic story, living up to the proposal. Although it has some technical problems and not very good lighting, the game may please fan of the genre looking for alternatives.

98 / 100 - Persona 5 Royal
Nov 2, 2022

Persona 5 Royal on PS5 manages to be better than the previous version just for its graphics, performance and additional content, but in the end, it's the same title from 2020. With that in mind, the game becomes a must-buy only for those who still did not have the opportunity to test the PS4 version. If this is not your case, don't invest your money here.

80 / 100 - Steelrising
Oct 22, 2022

Steelrising is a good soulslike game, with a very wide range of weapons, fun combat, and great exploration. However, it lacks in the technical aspect, which disappoints a little due to the lack of care and brings some graphical problems, frame drops and crashes.

74 / 100 - Thymesia
Aug 22, 2022

Thymesia is a game with beautiful graphics and good gameplay. However, what it offers in exchange for exploration is not enough to keep the game alive for long. If the title had a multiplayer mode, it would probably earn some more points, but this is unfortunately not present.

60 / 100 - MADiSON
Jul 14, 2022

MADiSON had what it takes to be a great horror game, but there is unnecessary exaggeration here. In addition, the lack of maturity of the character in the narrative makes you think that it is stuck all the time at the beginning, making the title tiring, especially with Luca's unbearable whimpering.
