Metal Slug Tactics is the long-awaited return of an iconic franchise within the 2D run and gun genre, although it does so in the form of a spin-off and changing the classic gameplay of the saga for tactical strategy with roguelike elements. Despite the change in genre, Tactics manages to capture the spirit of Metal Slug thanks to the inclusion of its classic characters and vehicles, as well as all its humor. It is not a perfect game, and its great strengths can easily become problems if it is not the right audience, but beyond this, Metal Slug Tactics is a more than interesting game.

Crow Country is a love letter for fans of classic survival horror, an outstanding adventure that captures the essence of the genre perfectly. Despite the classic cut of the adventure, there is no lack of integration of more modern mechanics that favor playability, and its difficulty selector, despite being unpopular due to one of its levels without enemies, is a success for a larger audience. to the genre. Without being perfect, Crow Country will take us back to that 32-bit generation where the foundations of the genre were established, something that is definitely worth it.

Ys X: Nordics is presented as a solid addition to the franchise, offering evolved gameplay and new playable elements. The Mana String is quite interesting and gives many new possibilities to the protagonists that make the game more dynamic and fun. On the other hand, the naval combats, although interesting, have left us a little cold. Still, Ys fans are in luck because the spirit of Ys is still intact and in top form, and it's still devilishly fun.

Caravan SandWitch is an interesting and emotional adventure in a mysterious and beautiful open world. Plane Toad has managed to create an adventure free of combat mechanics and any type of danger where we can explore at our own pace while the story develops. A good narrative and good character design at the level of depth and development complete this great mystery and science fiction adventure that we cannot help but recommend.

Cuddly Carnage is an adorable, bloody and fun chaos, a game that hides a more solid and polished experience than it appears and that despite its madness offers us pure fun and doubt. It is true that the Nintendo Switch version - which we have played - suffers graphically in exchange for gaining the necessary fluidity, but it still offers a very fun experience that is worth enjoying.

The Plucky Squire is a beautiful story for children -and adults- turned into a video game. All Possible Futures brings us with its first title a game that is as imaginative and creative as it is simple, which can also be seen as a problem due to its lack of difficulty. A good story awaits us, well told and with a message, which makes the title even more interesting and which everyone should give a chance.

Frostpunk 2 is a continuous game with its first installment, although the developer has been able to expand and enhance a formula that worked wonderfully in Frostpunk - construction and management of cities plus survival - delving into expansion, management, and colony construction. and above all the relationships with the different factions and the political aspect, creating a much more complete title and to a certain extent somewhat more complex, but superior to its predecessor. If you liked the first game or you like the genre, Frostpunk 2 is a title that you cannot miss.

Yars Rising is the ambitious reinterpretation of the Atari classic Yars' Revenge that manages to capture the essence of the original game and incorporate it into a new metroidvania genre game that knows how to successfully integrate all the iconography of the Atari classic.

Visions of Mana, the latest installment of the Seiken Densetsu franchise, offers us a solid action RPG with quite a few strong points, although with some aspects that could have been improved. The narrative and exploration, while competent, don't reach their full potential, and technical performance can impact the gameplay experience. However, the depth of the combat, the artistic design and the soundtrack make it a highly recommended title for fans of the saga and lovers of the action RPG genre.
