Wanted: Dead had a great team and the idea of mixing two action types so distinct was propitious, but unfortunately the game came with many gameplay issues. Besides that, it's inconceivable that the final visual quality is so far from the one shown on the trailers.

Wings of Bluestar is another case of ok game that could have been much better. All the issues above, as well as the outdated animations and backgrounds don't make it unplayable but there are certainly better options at the same price.

NeverAwake managed to combine the frantic action of a shooting game with a serious and very touching story about trauma and loss. This, added to its vast content, sharp controls and unique artistic style, makes it a unique piece of its kind.

Sail Forth manages to be interesting for fans of slow adventures and who like to wander between one objective and another. Its colorful visual style and calm soundtrack make everything more relaxing, but that doesn't exempt it from its minor flaws either. Moreover, it is indicated for pirates who are retiring and no longer want to brave rough seas.

Water Margin: The Tale of Clouds and Wind is not the first choice for those who want to play a classic of the genre, but the curious and nostalgic will get a good piece of history when they experience this picturesque beat 'em up. Just the history of its production from three decades ago to the current release is already a good reason to understand what game lovers can do when they want.

Jitsu Squad is simply a product suitable for playing alone or with someone, for people who want something fun and with the right amount of intensity without missing on its soft, cartoonish humor. Its small issues aren't enough not to have this beat'em up in your list.

Warhammer 40,000: Shootas, Blood & Teef runs away from all the heavily crafted narrative of the franchise to deliver simpler, more sincere and objective fun. The commands can be a little out of the ordinary, but this is a good title to enjoy with friends.

A medieval shoot 'em up, something unusual, but which Cassiodora delivers with competence and a lot of creativity. Merits also the simple gameplay, well-planned multiplayer and skill implementation.

The Rumble Fish 2 is a very worthwhile experience, both for the rarity of the title itself and for the legacy it carries and its easy-to-understand mechanics. However, those who are used to more current and complex titles may not be very excited about it.

Police Simulator: Patrol Officers had a good idea, that's for sure. Modestly, it could even have been a "law-side GTA" or just another crazy simulator with a cop but the amount of issues turns it into something totally forgettable and not worth even meme status.

Tad the Lost Explorer comes with good intentions and [it's] based on a fun animation, but its technical issues turn it into a very weak title among other options inspired by cartoons and movies. It isn't horrendous, but think twice before starting this exploration that's as clumsy as its protagonist.

If WRC 10 were compared to a party, WRC Generations would be that box with snacks and cake that you keep on eating in the following days: it's still tasty but more of the same. The game modes are exactly the same, with way simpler menus. Even with the excellent experience of driving a (now hybrid) rally car, the edition's biggest flaw is not trying to even shake its basic structure a little bit.

Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration, manages to transcend the aura of a mere compilation, becoming a great "playable documentary". It is a historical test, recommended for everyone who wants to know what the world of games was like in the distant past.

Sophstar respects the time-honored shoot 'em up formula while adding a lot of personality and interesting features, such as the variety of ships with unique attributes and teleportation.

PGA Tour 2K23 offers a good gameplay experience but suffers from a negative factor generated by its sports games siblings, [which are] more attractive and originally more enticing. Its content can be considered shallow, despite the interesting field creation mode. It's a title recommended only for fans of the sport.

It's not possible to know if Them’s Fightin’ Herds would have gained notoriety without everything that happened back then, but what matters is that the occasion's spotlight brought it the necessary attention for fighting game fans to find out about this excellent title, which manages to be just as competent as the ones from big studios. It's now time to wait for more characters and the remainder of Story Mode so the experience can be more complete.

Chenso Club can even be deceiving by its strong colors and cartoon protagonists, but it's a very well designed challenge for those who like to suffer with well-structured roguelikes, even with the increasing pace of difficulty. It just needs some gameplay tweaks to be perfect.

SpiderHeck is a pretty cool multiplayer to spend hours on end locally. The absence of online participants is a little frustrating, and the single-player content is challenging enough, but a little tiring. Still, it's good to leave this title prepared for weekend afternoons.
