Undead Darlings ~don't cure for love~ is an interesting proposal that merges novel visual mechanics with its decision making, dungeon crawler and dungeon exploration, and turn-based fighting in the purest RPG style. A combination that works pushed by a crazy story that without big shows will keep our attention enough to reach one of its 9 possible endings. If you like his proposal, give him a chance.

Serious Sam Collection appears by surprise on consoles as a compilation of Serious Sam HD: The First Encounter, Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter, Serious Sam 3: BFE, plus two expansions. Honestly, several installments are missing to be considered a compilation to match, but even so, with the installments included, the content is quite extensive and serves as a starting point for anyone who wants to get started in this classic franchise, or for those who already know it and let yourself be carried away by nostalgia.

The Last Blade: Beyond the Destiny was a Neo Geo Pocket Color fighting title and is the newest addition to the collection of Neo Geo Pocket Color titles being relaunched on Nintendo Switch. Based on the arcade SNK The Last Blade, we will find a version super deformer quite competent, and that as a big surprise will be able to mutate in its second installment based on unlockables. A curiosity that we must try.

Raji: An Ancient Epic is a game that aims to make known and disseminate Hindu and Balinese culture and mythology, and it does so with a story of struggles between gods and demons, and among them Raji, a young woman who only wants to save her brothers from the clutches of evil. Simple but enough to immerse ourselves in these stories of deities with beautiful art, and a soundtrack that knows how to accompany. India as we had not imagined it, the rest? Some simple platforms, some easy puzzles, and a correct hack & slash.

NAMCO MUSEUM ARCHIVES Volume 2 includes other 10 classic Namco games for Famicom -some of them developed by third parties-, and adds the 8-bit version of the Arcade Gaplus as an extra. A selection of titles a little weaker than that of the first volume, a good emulation from M2 and an attractive price is what the second volume of the Namco compilation offers us, slightly below the first installment.

Omensight is a hack'n' slash with RPG touches and a very interesting plot, and an ingenious execution, which in spite of this suffers from a technical section without optimization. Discover with the mystical warrior Harbinger who is behind the apocalypse, and repeat the last day of this earth to find the culprit. Live that last day with one of the four secondary characters as many times as necessary to discover the necessary clues.

The Shapeshifting Detective is an adventure based on Full Motion Video that tries to escape the confinement of this format through a clever identity change mechanic and a random choice of the culprit to find. An intriguing story with noir influences and supernatural elements that help give development variety. The acting of the actors is correct, although amateur, with some over-acting, but generally with a minimum of quality. Despite not being a popular format, the game is solvent and its story has enough hook to catch us to the end, despite some fluency problems that we will encounter. Game recommended for all adventure lovers, and let's hope to see more developments using Full Motion Video from the guys at D'Avekki Studios.

Railway Empire Nintendo Switch Edition is a great railway company management game during the expansion of the railway in the United States. Complete in terms of options, modes and content that only sin from a technical section much lower than other versions and below what the Nintendo console can offer. Despite this, the gameplay is still intact and is a good option if your proposal calls us.

Vaporum is a classic and quality dungeon crawler that, although it achieves a fair balance between exploration, combat and puzzles, suffers from a difficulty typical of the genre that is not suitable for all audiences. The plot is interesting enough to invite you to move forward, and the setting is quite accomplished and inspired, but the size of the inventory, and the nature of some puzzles tarnish the end result. The Nintendo Switch version has also suffered significant technical cuts and the font is too small in its portable mode, perhaps it is not the ideal platform for this game.

Hard West shows us how well XCOM would do in the Wild West, but it also knows how to stamp a stamp of its own with some mechanics such as luck and special abilities, and a powerful plot weight with decisions of negligible effects. All seasoned with gore, death, arcane rites, devil worship, and other paraphernalia that we did not expect to see in this setting but that in the end it looks good. It can fall into repeatability due to an AI with a lot of resources, and the management parts end up getting in the way, but it is still a highly recommended game if you like strategy and English is not a problem.

Darius Cozmic Collection Console brings together 4 unique games for consoles and multiple versions of these games, as well as several extra modes in some of them. The good finish of the product from M2 is clouded by the lack of a Museum or Gallery, and the high price of the two available compilations, Console and Arcade. But if you are a fan of the Taito franchise, this is an opportunity that you should not miss.

Castle of Heart is a good 2D platformer and action game with age-old difficulty and a well-done setting. A classic sword and witchcraft story in a medieval fantasy world, that while not inventing anything new, it does the best it can to be an indie. The game is not without flaws, but neither is it without virtues and possibilities. Recommended.

Red Wings: Aces of the Sky puts us at the controls of an airplane during the Great War. With a campaign that mixes true historical events with solid arcade gameplay, we will fly planes from both sides while facing each other in dog-face combat. The powerful starting ends up being simplified to an interesting arcade, although it aimed at much more.

Dread Nautical is an exploration and survival adventure that, combining elements of strategy games, turn-based RPGs, and roguelites, create an interesting experience. It has its drawbacks, such as micro-management of survivors, or a certain repetitiveness, but they are still interesting, and the Lovecraftian story is a plus.

UBERMOSH: OMEGA is a twin stick shooter very difficult to qualify, as it is aimed at a very specific audience that has turned this Walter Machado saga into a cult franchise. Pure and frenetic arcade that hides more than it seems in its barely 90 seconds.

Bubble Bobble 4 Friends is the new part of this long-running Taito franchise. With a cooperative game oriented approach, and new mechanics and skills, the game guarantees us simple and direct fun, although it is true that it can be short, and easy, at least the first round, although ININ Games has taken into account the customers feedback and is preparing a free expansion with more levels and the return of Baron von Blubba, a classic, and a good move by the studio.

First compilation in honor of Konami's 50th anniversary, a compilation of arcades from the 80s that, although it includes some classics that gave Konami fame and prestige, it also includes some more questionable titles. The selection of the arcades that make up the compilation, both in quality and quantity, is also questioned, it could have been done a little better. But it must be recognized that the included digital book helps to save the furniture in a more than dignified way, leaving us with an interesting compilation but that could have gone further.

Biolab Wars is a tribute to the 8 bits, more specifically those of Nintendo. The game is full of details and mechanics that will remind us of the NES classics, and although it is not very long or very difficult, and certain artistic designs are questionable, for the less than € 2 it costs it is worth having a good time with the game!

Subdivision Infinity DX is a good 3D space shooter that stands out in a simple and fun control, and a very attractive visual section, but in return, we have a irrelevant story and that the game bases its progress on the formula of farming to improve and can continue progressing in the game, a formula that will have its defenders and detractors. It shows that it comes from the mobile market because of its structure, but it has also managed to bring good things from there, the control for example. It is worth giving it a try if arcade space shooters is one of your favourite genres.
