A fun and (almost always) relaxing rhythm game that seeks to embody the excesses, anxieties, and pressures of everyday life.

No Recommendation / Blank - Alone in the Dark (2024)
Mar 23, 2024

An attempt to reinvent the series without distorting the obvious inspirations of the original title, where creativity was lacking in its narrative and in the tiresome gameplay that never knows what it wants to be.

No Recommendation / Blank - Granblue Fantasy: Relink
Mar 17, 2024

Lost in time and lost in its own design, but it's possible to see glimpses of creativity in the cooperative combat and its focus on online modes.

An emotional adventure wrapped in supernatural mysteries that offers a world not always depicted in video games, yet it falls short due to its reliance on a combat system that never becomes deep enough to be truly challenging.

Recommended - WHAT THE GOLF?
Feb 28, 2024

A game that wins by being everything and nothing about golf and by keeping players in the greatest of surprises about what they will encounter next.

An excellent collection at all levels and yet another attempt to prove to yourselves that 'this is the one where you'll finish a Tomb Raider.

A warm adventure that gets lost due to rigid controls and lack of variety in the campaign.

Hard, classic, and always fun – that's how Sydney Hunter's debut on Sony consoles can be described.

This game is exactly what you think it is and I hope you don’t get fooled like I did.

Ubisoft revives one of its most important and assertive titles in its catalog. It’s not just a good metroidvania: it’s an excellent Prince of Persia.

No Recommendation / Blank - Air Twister
Nov 26, 2023

Occasionally fun but filled with modes that add little to the classic formula, Air Twister is a project as strange as it is nostalgic.

Apesar dos seus problemas de desempenho e de alguma falta de polimento, Robocop: Rogue City é uma delícia para os fãs e um bom jogo de ação para quem procura apenas uma experiência violenta e envolta em humor negro.

No Recommendation / Blank - Hellboy Web of Wyrd
Nov 3, 2023

With a game that seems to have been forced to be something it was never conceptualized to be, Upstream Arcade shows just how challenging it is to create a good roguelike.

"Despite its peaks of intensity, Trepang2 is more predictable and less focused than it should be."

If Rockay City was more than its references, its gameplay could shine, but what remains are uninteresting modes and a failed attempt to inject some novelty into the roguelike genre.

The Game Kitchen demonstrates a more mature and thoughtful approach in this sequel, which is, in almost every way, more fun and exciting than the original.
