Tape: Unveil the Memories offers us a Playstation Talents tittle with a rather modest graphic section. However, it is a title that play quite well with mystery and narrative, making it very interesting and biting our curiosity to the point of making us want to play more to reveal different mysteries and aspects of the plot. Surely as survival horror it is a fairly limited and simple game, with few or almost no jump scares, in addition to traditional formulas already seen in other games, so if you are looking to be scared, I can't recommend it, but if you are just looking to have a good time, it will surely pleasantly surprise you.

Chrono Cross: The Radical Dreamers Edition may remind us of remasters that Square-Enix has offered us in the past, such as Final Fantasy VIII or Final Fantasy IX, with almost the same extra options (speed up combat or have certain advantages) and an improvement renders/graphics, and being for the first time arrived to Europe, making it a must have whether you are a fan of the saga or not (especially if you like JRPGs). Apart from enjoying it with such a good facelift and with the extras it brings, you will be able to enjoy "Radical Dreamers" for the first time and get to know that prequel that never left Japan, in addition to the fact that both have been fully translated into Spanish.

MalnaZidos, a title for PlayStation 4, is inspired by the homonymous Spanish film by director Javier Ruíz Caldera and starring actors such as Miki Esparbé (Losing the North) and Aura Garrido (The Ministry of Time). Mediaset Games presents us with a new title in the Playstation Talents framework and which also coincides with the premiere of the film in theaters. Zombies, Nazis and gunshots in Spanish territory during the spanish Civil War, a mix that makes us wonder, what could possibly go wrong?

Unscored - Infernax
Feb 18, 2022

Infernax is a medieval-style title that could remind us videogames like Zelda 2, Castlevania II or the more recent Shovel Knight. This time we will have to help a duke to rescue his beloved homeland from the invasion of hordes of demonic creatures, hooking us from the first minute with formulas and mechanics seen before that results into a fun game with a very affordable difficulty. A remarkable adventure and an almost mandatory acquisition that, without being extremely long, can take us about 8-10 hours to finish it. Its decision-making system will encourage us to replay it to see the different ways to unlock the different endings it has.

The King of Fighters XV presents us with a very fluid and fun fighting videogame. Maybe its a shame que ausence of very important members of the saga, but still is a very recommended title for all. A highly recommended title, reminding us of that time when we invaded arcades and gladly paid our coins to have a good time alone of with a rival, but, this time, we could playing with him/her in local or online mode.

Greak: Memories of Azur presents us a metroidvania, but with a personal touch trying to differentiate it from the rest, with the idea of playing with 3 characters at the same time, idea already used in other games such as Castlevania (Dawn of Sorrow as an example of a metroidvania or Castlevania III in an arcade), but on this occasion, present at all times instead to be exchanged at the push of a button. Puzzles, action and lots of exploring will amaze you in this amazing adventure!

Iron Harvest presents us a great title for lovers of real-time strategy, and above all, with all the DLCs so far. Hours and hours of guaranteed entertainment await us, even more so if we are expert collectors or "completionists". The game has a couple of extra modes, in addition to online multiplayer, that extend the experience beyond your campaign. Iron Harvest has a special charisma, especially for its artistic section, character personality and development of its campaigns.

Unscored - The Medium
Sep 2, 2021

The Medium presents us with a paranormal adventure in which its premise is to advance to discover its history, its greatest challenge being solving simple puzzles and trying not to die on very rare occasions. Do not expect lots of action as in a survival to use because you will not find it. The game is a very accessible title for every player

Dariusburst Another Chronicle Ex + is presented to us in its even more definitive edition, with even more stages and final bosses. For those looking for a great story, they will find that this title is very "arcade", just like the games of the 80s / 90s. Smooth and colorful graphics, a great soundtrack, as well as good times of fun. Without a doubt, a real gem for lovers of Martian killers and fast games without much to think about and wanting to have a good time without complications. Special mention to 4 coop multiplayer mode!

Observer: System Redux is a great revision of the "classic" of 2017 ", if in its day it was already a great game at a graphic level, now it looks spectacular with the new additions that we can enjoy throughout the approximately 8 hours The game. The Polish studio Bloober Teams, known for the recent The Medium, on this occasion will move away from the supernatural to invite us to travel to a pessimistic future with a Cyberpunk aesthetic, reverting to narrative and puzzle-solving gameplay such as the one lived in Layers of Fear.

Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX is an old school game, made by and for fans, and it shows! It has kept its original devilish difficulty and has added new factors to surprise everyone who knows the game by heart. A fun platform game that encourages you to play and engages from the first minute until finishing it in just 90 minutes, perhaps its biggest drawback.

Unscored - Legend of Mana
Jun 22, 2021

Whether you are fervent followers of the Mana saga or not, playing this Legend of Mana Remastered is almost mandatory, especially if you like old-style action RPGs, playing it is an opportunity that should not be missed.

Wonder Boy: Asha in Monster World is a game very faithful to the original and that has respected its essence to the fullest, something that can be appreciated from minute one of the game. However, so much respect is a double-edged sword, since its remake, and like the original, has a simple, simple and partly predictable story and development. I am not saying that Wonder Boy: Asha in Monster World is a bad game, on the contrary, it is very entertaining and fun to play, but being so simple it can easily be finished in 4 - 5 hours at most if we do not get stuck in something. another puzzle.

Kaze and the Wild Masks takes us back to the platform genre of the 90s with a colorful and fun action game. Good graphics and very entertaining. It will evoke a pleasant memory while putting your reflexes and gamer skills into play, since it will gain in difficulty as we progress. A highly recommended title, of a genre that is increasingly difficult to see in a world in which polygonal and open worlds are ruled with an iron fist.
