Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is one of the best licensed games out there right now. This is one of the best games of the year, and a ray of hope for all Xbox fans.

In an age where every JRPG offers us complex experiences, with hundreds of hours of content and multiple systems at our disposal, Fantasian Neo Dimension is a little baileys chocolate. The first bite is something everyone can appreciate, the sweetness immediately grabs the player, but once you get to the end of the bite, you're likely to feel something too strong for you, but at the same time it's addictive, and it's hard not to eat another one.

Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is the definitive version of one of the pillars of this industry. With this title, Square Enix has made it clear that they are capable of honoring the extensive legacy they have, and I wouldn't be surprised to hear that Final Fantasy VI or Chrono Trigger will get this treatment in the future. Make no mistake, Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is one of the best remakes ever, and something that everyone should play.

Leikir Studio's work offers us a good combination between the classic elements of Metal Slug and the strategic approach of a tactical RPG. Two contrasting ideas merge in a way that seemed impossible, and the end result is fun. However, the game's performance is terrible. It's a bad joke to have to wait after doing something as simple as moving a unit. While it is true that Metal Slug Tactics is a good game, it is likely that many will not see it that way after witnessing its terrible performance, and will pass up what could very well have been one of the most fun games of the year.

What's worse than a bad game? A boring one. One where the player is unable to process a strong feeling, whether positive or negative. Reflector Entertainment's work does not deserve anyone to be upset about what they've played. Bandai Namco's release is one of the biggest failures of the year, and something that will be forgotten by everyone.

If your party guests are already used to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Super Mario Party Jamboree is the best option for this holiday season. It's a fun experience that will keep everyone having a memorable time, and a fantastic way to send off the Switch in what will likely be its last holiday in the spotlight.

Neva is a great example of the artistic value of video games. It is a work that reinforces Spain's position in this industry, and it is an adventure that is able to connect on a personal level with each player. This is, without a doubt, one of the best experiences of 2024.

There's no doubt about it, Metaphor: ReFantazio is one of the best games of the year. Atlus and Studio Zero have given us an experience that no one can miss. With more than 20 years working in this company, Katsura Hashino and her team have shown that they still have a lot to give us, and I wouldn't be surprised if this is the beginning of a new saga that, over time, will be as important and acclaimed as Persona and Shin Megami Tensei are.

Persona 3: Reload is one of the best games of the year. If Episode Aigis had been part of the package we saw in early 2024, many of the problems with the DLC would not been so heavy, but since it is sold separately, it is very easy to see the problems that the epilogue presents us, even with all the good that we find here.

Milestone won the hearts of millions of fans through the two Hot Wheels Unleashed installments, which focused more on fun than realism. Monster Jam Showdown falls somewhere in the middle. On one hand, it tries to offer enough content and a number of entertaining mechanics, but ends up presenting us with an experience that doesn't quite match the level of quality of its previous works. The result is a racing title that may be hard to recommend to anyone who isn't a monster truck fan.

Age of Mythology was already a fun game back in the day, and one of Ensemble Studios' best works. With Age of Mythology: Retold, World's Edge and Forgotten Empires have taken it upon themselves to preserve everything that made this entry special, and modernize this title so that a wider audience has the opportunity to enjoy one of the best exponents of the genre. There's no doubt about it, Age of Mythology: Retold is the definitive way to experience one of the great RTS classics.

It's clear that Visions of Mana is the best game in the series. The title is able to look back at its past and bring back the series' signature elements in a way that everyone can appreciate. While it's not without its issues, it's still a must-play experience for fans, and I hope this installment marks the return of Mana.

Black Myth: Wukong is a very fun game. The story, visuals, and music all boast their Chinese origins, and the gameplay is addictive, with a combat system focused on customization and exploration that rewards the player. However, the PC version's performance is abysmal, making this great experience difficult to fully appreciate.

SteamWorld Heist II is everything a good sequel should be. The story offers a unique adventure, with an emphasis on the personal problems of its protagonist, and at the same time substantially expands the universe created by Thunderful, so veterans and those who have not experienced a single title in the saga can enjoy this adventure without any problem. Once again, the charisma of each robot manages to stand out immediately, and this is a great look at this corner of the franchise.

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess presents us with an interesting combination between tower defense and hack and slash, where the player has enough tools to face each challenge in the way they like best. The pacing is addictive, and there is constantly a feeling of progression that hooks you, and you can't let go of the control until you reach the end credits. Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess is a classic in the making, a title that we will all be talking about in a couple of years as one of the hidden gems of this generation.

Zenless Zone Zero, like Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail, is here to stay. It is very certain that miHoYo is already working on future updates with more content and new characters. With three different games, the Chinese studio has extended its reach to new territories, and perhaps those who are not fans of open world games or turn-based RPGs can find their new obsession in this hack and slash.

Metal Slug Attack Reloaded is a bad case of transitioning an experience from mobile to consoles and PC. The only case where this doesn't feel as bad is in Switch, where you can play in handheld mode and imagine it's a tablet, but this doesn't eliminate the tedious progression, the unnecessary gacha system, and how everything feels boringness at the end of the day.

The way this map is built plays very well with its limitations, creating a layered world that takes exploration to a new level for the series. Traveling through this open world is extremely satisfying and gives us so many options that it can even be overwhelming for some people, but at the same time it gives rise to an experience that only Tears of the Kingdom had achieved in recent years. Shadow of the Erdtree is an expansion that no one should miss, and is a solid candidate for the best game of the year.

If you played the original Shin Megami Tensei V, Vengeance offers more of what made this installment special. Canon of Vengeance is an entertaining story with a series of twists that will surprise you, while those who will enter this world for the first time will be able to enjoy the definitive version of this title, with two campaigns and a lot of content. Just as it was in 2021, Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance is positioned as a must-play game, and something that JRPG fans have to play no matter what, even in a year when this genre has not stopped giving us some of its best modern exponents.

The puzzles presented by Animal Well are challenging enough, but at no point do they feel impossible. The level design guides us little by little, and the way in which each challenge is solved is through experimentation. Talking about Animal Well can be a detriment to all those who wish to enter this world. My biggest recommendation is: play Animal Well. This is a magical experience that will stick in the minds of everyone who gives it a try, and I can't wait to see what the next step is for its developer.
