Eduardo Rebouças's Reviews
Hideo Kojima is set loose in yet another post-apocalyptic delivery adventure in Death Stranding 2; it is definitely more Death Stranding, perhaps more than what was bargained for.
Regardless of how you choose to play it – be it on a controller or go old school with keyboard and mouse – Neverwinter Nights 2 proves that it’s still one of Obsidian’s best games.
Eriksholm: the Stolen Dream is an absolute joy to play, not only delivering on the gameplay department, but also on story and ambiance. Don’t let it sneak by!
Jaleco Sports: Goal! drags two of the oldest 8-bit and 16-bit soccer games back from the past. Should they have just stayed buried or do they belong in a museum?
Wizard of Legend 2 is finally out of Steam Early Access with a game that’s fun to play solo and even more with a few friends along for the ride.
From NETK2GAMES out of Barcelona comes one of the most enjoyable arcade racing you’ll play: Rally Arcade Classics is no fluff, all fun.
FromSoftware’s multiplayer spin-off of Elden Ring is a fun surprise that works better than expected.
The pickings are slim in this entry as well, but are still worthwhile to own and play in Irem Collection Volume 2.
While few, the games that are included in Irem Collection Volume 3 are some of the most fun and obscure shoot ‘em ups you’ll play.
An entirely new area, exciting weapons, horrible monsters, and some fantastic boss fights make Lies of P: Overture a must-buy.
Agent 47 arrives on Nintendo’s new console in a somewhat technically troubled port of his best set of adventures ever with Hitman: World of Assassination – Signature Edition.
Survival Kids tries and fails to rekindle an old Konami franchise by bringing it to the Switch 2, but ends up leaving it stranded and to fend for its own.
Mario Kart World is not only a great first-party launch game for the Switch 2, but it’s also one of the best entries in the franchise to date.
Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo rebounds onto the scene with plenty of charm and clever gameplay, much like the games that came before it.
Haneda Girl is an electrifyingly fun action platformer with a fantastic aesthetic and a bashing soundtrack.
Monster Train 2 is a quick to get into roguelike deck builder that plays into the tired genre’s strengths and still manages to provide a worthwhile time for those who buy into it.
This new version of Onimusha 2: Samurai’s Destiny is well worth jumping in. It’s an excellent example of how well games of its ilk were developed and that it’s imperative to look past outdated character models in order to see that they’re still incredibly playable to this day.
The Rogue Prince of Persia plays brilliantly and as it approaches 1.0, it already plays and feels like one of the best roguelikes around.
All in all, Rift of the Necrodancer is an absolute blast, even if I’m a tone deaf dud at it. It’s colorful, has some creatively funny writing, and the sheer creativity at play when it comes to its challenges is simply insane. It’s no surprise Brace Yourself Games ended up being called by Nintendo to develop a game based on Zelda. They are on another level of creativity that only grows greater with each new release. I at the same time am anxious and dread what they will come up with next. The only assurance is that I’ll probably suck at playing it but am likely to love it.
The hard-boiled hard rock detective is back with one hell of a hangover and an arm’s length of bills to pay in Kathy Rain 2.
