8.5 / 10.0 - Watch Dogs: Legion
Oct 30, 2020

I knew Watch Dogs: Legion was going to be interesting and entertaining, but even though I already had really high expectations, Ubisoft still managed to surpass them. It’s one of their few sandbox games in which fooling around is a legit fun activity. It’s a game with a bold premise that actually delivers.

8 / 10.0 - Pacer
Oct 29, 2020

Is it better than F-Zero or Wipeout? No, nor it was intended to be. Is it a great alternative to PS4 and Xbox owners who don’t have access to Fast RMX? Absofreakinglutely. This one will most certainly satiate any futuristic racing fan’s hunger for a while.

6.5 / 10.0 - GONNER2
Oct 28, 2020

There are simply way too many good roguelikes out there, games that are way better than GoNNER2 in every single aspect. This game isn’t as polished as Hades, relatable as Going Under, or revolutionary as The Crown Tundra‘s Max Lair mode. Simply put, it might be interesting for those who enjoyed the first GoNNER a few years ago, but if you’re new to the franchise, this definitely won’t impress you that much.

The Crown Tundra is more than just a small expansion with a slightly expanded pokédex and a brand new legendary to catch. This is one hell of a meaty campaign with some interesting puzzle-solving mechanics, a labyrinthine map to explore, tons of returning legendaries, and a roguelike mode that is way more addictive than it should have ever been. Whereas The Isle of Armor felt too short and undercooked, The Crown Tundra is absolutely worth buying if you own Sword or Shield.

4 / 10.0 - Airplane Mode
Oct 26, 2020

I truly question Airplane Mode‘s existence, but I have to praise its developers for being upfront and honest with it. It’s incredibly boring, but so is being stuck inside an airplane for six hours in real life. This game can be called lots of things, such as a waste of time and an act of hubris, but it’s definitely not false advertising. This is a very accurate portrayal of what you can (and cannot) do while traveling in economy class, for better or for worse.

7.5 / 10.0 - Pumpkin Jack
Oct 23, 2020

Pumpkin Jack is janky, but still very enjoyable. It’s the kind of simple and straightforward 3D platformer that’s missing in today’s world. It was a lot better than last year’s MediEvil remake, that’s for damn sure.

It’s by no means the most polished hack n’ slash out there, paling in comparison to Platinum and Capcom’s works, but it still managed to offer some mindless, cathartic fun. Shut down your brain, and you’ll easily look past its issues.

8.5 / 10.0 - Disc Room
Oct 22, 2020

Disc Room features such a stupidly simple gameplay loop, yet the developers managed to come up with so many kinds of challenges and so many room layouts, it’s absolutely bonkers. It is a stupidly hard game, but it never felt unfair. Not even when I was stuck in room where the amount of saw blades trying to turn me into a sashimi defied the laws of physics.

5.5 / 10.0 - Uppers
Oct 21, 2020

In short, Uppers could have been a fairly decent brawler if it wasn’t for its borderline idiotic creeper factor. It does feature a nice art style and a really good combat system, but they just had to shove in a ton of gratuitous and disturbing content that does nothing to improve the overall experience. It’s just one of those unnecessary games that practically force you to play it with your room door’s closed and windows shut.

You have to understand that Streets of Kamurocho isn’t a full game, but simply a nice little gift from Sega for us to enjoy. I still liked what little was available in here, though. I really hope that they’ll eventually decide to make an entire game with this exact premise, as Yakuza and old school beat ’em ups go together like peanut butter and jelly. I will never say no to more Yakuza in my life, especially when it’s free and pixelated.

7.5 / 10.0 - Endless Zone
Oct 18, 2020

I cannot complain that much about Endless Zone, though. It has flaws, of course, but as a free game, it’s certainly worth your while. As a brand new take on the classic Fantasy Zone series, it’s also a cause for celebration.

Playing Doodle God: Evolution on a PS4 is somewhat fun, but let’s face it, this is a game suited for a mobile phone. It was meant to be played in short bursts with a touchscreen. You’ll scroll through everything the game has to offer pretty quickly, earning some trophies along the way, but you’ll immediately forget about it once you turn the console off.

3.5 / 10.0 - POSTAL Redux
Oct 16, 2020

Having a game like this on a Nintendo platform is enough to give Howard Lincoln and Tipper Gore a coronary, but don’t expect it to be an actually good game. It’s ugly, its gameplay is underwhelming, and its sound design makes me thankful for the invention of a mute button. It goes to show that Postal is only remembered for its controversy, not its quality, or lack thereof.

It might not exactly be the most visually appealing nor polished game out there, but let’s face it, a martial arts-infused beat ’em up set in medieval China will always be intriguing. Thankfully, even though 9 Monkeys of Shaolin is far from perfect, it features a great combat system that just makes you want to play it more and more.

I don’t think I would have considered Monster Truck Championship such a disappointment if it wasn’t for the fact that Monster Jam Steel Titans exists. That game is simply superior in every single aspect, be it in terms of visuals, sound, controls, and overall content. Monster Truck Championship would have been a recommended title for monster truck enthusiasts if it wasn’t for the existence of its much superior main competitor.

9 / 10.0 - Get-A-Grip Chip
Oct 15, 2020

I love when games like Get-A-Grip Chip show up. I love when a game I have never heard of ends up winning me over. This is a downright fantastic indie platformer, almost completely devoid of big flaws. Maybe the only thing I would consider an issue is the fact that I’m playing it on a PC, the only platform it’s currently available for, and not the Switch where it would absolutely become one of the system’s best hidden gems.

There are some really good things in This Is The Zodiac Speaking. It nails its setting, being shockingly faithful to its source material. The developers did a great job researching the subject matter, that’s for certain. Sadly, I can’t say the same about the game as a whole. Its graphics are cheap, its sound design is a mixed bag, and what’s worse, it’s just not very exciting to play.

The developers behind Ben 10: Power Trip sure tried coming up with an ambitious open world adventure for the young ones to enjoy, but they sadly missed the mark. Be it due to budget issues or time constraints, everything in this game feels rushed and half-baked.

8 / 10.0 - Going Under

More than just a unique roguelike with a nice combat system and tons of customization options, Going Under is also a great piece of satire.

6 / 10.0 - Powertris
Oct 7, 2020

Issues aside, Powertris is not exactly bad. Sure, its presentation is beyond lazy, and it does suffer from an annoying amount of input lag, but as a puzzle game, it’s quite decent.
