It’s hard to believe Devolver Digital decided to invest in a project as mediocre, predictable, and hollow as Serious Sam: Shatterverse, which forces a classic series into something it simply isn’t: a co-op roguelike with sluggish progression, uneven difficulty, and uninspired gameplay that gives us very little reason to return to this half-baked multiverse.

In Sprawl Zero, MAETH returns to the FPS genre with a tribute to the past, packed with frantic action, satisfying abilities, and a level of difficulty that demands constant movement through environments that could have been more creative in their design.

Gothic Remake keeps the soul of the original intact, to the point where it doesn't care whether the player can keep up or not. This is a classic RPG with modern graphics, ready to punish us for the smallest mistake and perfectly happy to watch us fail. And that's exactly how it should be.

Despite its aesthetic and occasional mechanical similarities to 2K Games' series, Twisted Tower stands out with its action-focused gameplay and a welcome emphasis on a linear structure packed with surprises that keep the player hooked until the end.

WONDERBOY BOBI makes some bold choices in this unlikely sequel to Aggelos, with two worlds to explore and the ability to switch between angelic and demonic powers. However, weak level design and confusing exploration hold back the player's curiosity, making Aggelos II a metroidvania that takes two steps forward and one step back.

If you haven’t played Blue Reflection yet, this collection is a perfect starting point. It brings four games together in a single package, covering the entire series, from the original game released in 2017 to the most recent sequel, which arrived on consoles in 2021. However, Blue Reflection Quartet offers little new for fans and is not an essential collection.

As expansive as its environments may be, as accessible as its narrative is, and as much as it draws on the popularity of genres such as soulslikes, Echoes of Aincrad is a collection of ideas that never rises above familiar territory, with not a hint of imagination. It can be enjoyable at times, but is also extremely limited when it should have been a breath of fresh air for fans of the series.

The new collection brings some interesting improvements to House Flipper, such as a stronger narrative focus and a world map that offers greater variety in the jobs available, but the underlying problems remain, and Frozen District has failed to deliver what could have been the definitive version of its simulation game.

As a survival horror game, Hollowbody aims for a more narrative-driven approach, supported by a dystopian and oppressive atmosphere. However, its uninspired environments, unsatisfying combat, and inability to generate meaningful tension ultimately leave it feeling inconsequential.

Its message is a powerful one, and Eugene’s emotional journey will undoubtedly resonate with most players, but the gameplay holds back Opus: Prism Peak’s full potential, allowing repetition to undermine the impact of its narrative.

Aside from some pacing issues and an art direction that hampers visibility during exploration segments, Luna Abyss is an interesting first-person action game.

Despite looking, sounding, and playing like a platformer, Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is anything but a traditional entry in the genre. Instead, it places a much stronger emphasis on educational elements, small puzzles, and exploration, making it one of the most interesting titles in the Nintendo Switch 2 catalogue.

Although it presents some mechanical issues that could have been addressed with additional polish, Motorslice fills a significant gap in the action-adventure genre with a campaign packed with daring jumps and a range of abilities reminiscent of the golden days of Prince of Persia and Mirror’s Edge.

After sequels and revisiting its older catalogue, it is refreshing to see Capcom investing in a new IP with Pragmata, a game that shows how the Japanese developer has its eyes on the future while also iterating on its ideas to create a project that feels both nostalgic and refreshing.

The emotional value of Project Songbird is undeniable, and it’s possible to feel the care Conner Rush has for the game, but its approach to the horror genre is a double-edged sword, and the result is not always satisfying or emotionally effective.
