Captain Velvet Meteor: The Jump+ Dimensions is a consistent and well-executed tactics game. Exploring a child's imagination, it shows how even small tasks and fears can be rebuilt by people in their own minds as metaphors and the role fiction can have in expanding our horizons and helping us in the process. Highly recommended for strategy fans and those who love emotional works for kids.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 is an excellent example of how to make a competent action platformer gameplay for both newcomers and veterans. Kirin is a fast character and the technical aspects of her moveset allow her to become a machine that obliterates enemies and flies through the stages as long as the player spends some time mastering her abilities. For fans of the genre, it's a must-play, just like the whole Gunvolt franchise.

Yurukill: The Calumniation Games is an atypical genre combination. On one side, the escape the room is a brainy, logical genre focused on puzzle resolution. On the other, the shoot'em up is based on frantic combat and quick reflexes. Despite how hard it is to mix those two styles, the development team managed to present a unique experience that offers a great entry point for both genres. Especially for players interested in the narratives of Japanese animation and other pop works, it's worth checking out.

After more than a decade without games, Klonoa is back in good shape. The new collection isn't a perfect package, but both titles offer a lot of fun. For anyone who is a fan of the franchise or wants to know these charismatic 2.5D platform games in a modern edition, Klonoa: Phantasy Reverie Series is a great choice.

Rune Factory 5 is another good addition to the franchise that mixes farm life simulator with RPG and is very worthwhile especially for fans of the series. The expectation is that the next games will be able to go beyond what was presented here in all aspects.

Just like the characters use the world of Redo to deal with their frustrations and try their hand at a new chance, The Caligula Effect 2 is a retry on elevating the proposition of the previous game to high quality. The work is successful in doing so, not only offering a good RPG, but an indispensable work to fans of the genre.

Metal Max Xeno Reborn is a fun RPG to explore a post-apocalyptic world with a slightly rudimentary design. However, it doesn't manage to offer an experience of special note beyond the pleasant gameplay. With disposable dialogues and characters, the shallow story development in every aspect and a consistently bad translation make it a journey that doesn't shine. Even so, if the idea of exploring a vast desert with your tank is enough to make you want an RPG, this can be a fun adventure.

Even if Tempest is a solid addition to the growing otome game library on Switch. Focused on the tragic narrative more than the romance, the title shows the efforts of a captivating protagonist to deal with the tragedies around her. Though the gameplay experimentation feels a little too simple and underexplored, its plot is enough to make this game a strong recommendation.

Touken Ranbu Warriors is a Musou-style game that seeks to offer a good gateway to its genre while adapting elements of the swordboys' multimedia franchise.

Research and Destroy is a very interesting strategy game that mixes management elements (for research) with a very unique tactical combat model. Unfortunately, there is a feeling that the game has chosen to focus on the player's reaction instead of valuing more strategic possibilities, which ends up giving the feeling of a bad and punishing design. However, fans of strategy games interested in other possibilities of the genre can have fun with the unusual concept.
