Achilles: Survivor establishes itself as a survival roguelike that respects the genre's roots while also offering unique elements to set it apart. The use of Greek mythology, the structure-building mechanics, and the rewarding progression system give the game a unique edge that keeps players engaged for hours.

Tales of the Shire: A Lord of the Rings Game is a charming proposition at first glance, offering a fresh take on Middle-earth by focusing on the everyday lives of hobbits. Its welcoming aesthetic and respect for the spirit of Tolkien's work certainly appeal to fans of the universe. However, its lack of depth in mechanics, lack of innovation within the cozy genre itself, and excessively slow pace make the experience repetitive and dull.

Wheel World is one of those experiences that embraces the player with its lighthearted atmosphere, friendly visuals, and welcoming soundtrack. While it's not a game that relies on major twists or complex challenges, it knows exactly what it wants to deliver: an uncomplicated, fun, and engaging adventure, with a healthy dose of exploration, customization, and naturally evolving racing mechanics.

Hell Clock is one of the most remarkable projects in the Brazilian indie scene in 2025, not only for its quality as a game, but for the pride it carries in portraying a brutal and underexplored slice of Brazilian history. It skillfully combines challenging gameplay, a rich setting, and a strong cultural identity, delivering a unique, immersive, and necessary experience.

Dragon is Dead has evolved significantly since its Early Access debut. TeamSuneat has delivered on much of its promise, delivering a more polished action roguelite packed with content and engaging combat. The inclusion of a new playable character, UI improvements, and a challenging endgame have made the experience even more rewarding for players who enjoy pushing their limits.

TRON: Catalyst is a visually stylish game that respects the essence of the franchise and delivers an interesting narrative, especially for fans of the TRON universe. However, the gameplay experience falls short of its potential. The combat is functional but simplistic; the glitch mechanic, despite being promising, is underutilized; exploration is shallow, with no real incentives, and the main campaign is short and lacking in challenge.

Rainbow Six Siege X represents an important milestone in the game's history, cementing the franchise's longevity with a combination of technical modernization, the inclusion of new content, and a more open access model to the public. The graphical improvements, the audio refinement, and the arrival of the new Dual Front mode show that Ubisoft is committed to keeping the game relevant in a competitive market, even after 10 years of activity.

Revenge of the Savage Planet is a sequel that takes what made the first game work and elevates it with visual improvements, greater freedom of exploration, and a welcome expansion of co-op. The shift to third-person, nonsensical humor, and irreverent sci-fi atmosphere maintain the franchise's charm, while new gameplay features make the experience more fluid and strategic.

Soulslinger: Envoy of Death stands out with a striking visual identity and a bold narrative proposal, creatively blending western and dark fantasy. However, this potential is partially compromised by performance issues, an unbalanced progression pace, and steep difficulty, which may put off less patient players or those unfamiliar with the roguelike genre, which may lead to eventual disinterest in the game.

Peppered: an existential platformer is a pleasant surprise in the independent gaming scene. What starts out as a simple platformer with a retro look soon reveals itself to be a profound, critical and absurdly creative experience. It is a game that knows how to play with the language of video games without giving up its message. For those looking for something that goes beyond entertainment and provokes thought — even if through the absurd —, Peppered is a must-play.

Blue Prince is a rare gem in the puzzle and exploration genre. With an original approach, it challenges the player's logic while instigating curiosity through a mysterious, beautiful world full of secrets. The constant feeling of discovery, combined with mechanics that transform each new game into a different experience, makes the game stand out.

ReSetna presents an interesting proposition with its dynamic combat, exploration in a sci-fi world and metroidvania-inspired mechanics, but its quality ends up being hampered by technical flaws that compromise the gaming experience. Although the title has received updates that improve performance and fix some issues, there are still unfinished elements that prevent the game from reaching its full potential.

A Game About Digging a Hole is exactly what it promises: a simple, silly and unpretentious experience, but one that delivers honest fun for those looking for something different and without commitment. Its basic gameplay loop — digging, finding items, selling and improving equipment — may seem repetitive at first, but becomes more engaging as the player progresses. The game doesn't worry about guiding the player or teaching them how things in this little world work, which reinforces its casual and straightforward proposal.

Expelled! stands out as an engaging and challenging experience for fans of narrative and investigation games. With its looping mechanics, the game tests the player's patience and cunning, requiring attention to detail and strategic planning. The well-constructed narrative, combined with the freedom of choice and multiple possible outcomes, maintains immersion and encourages multiple attempts to explore all the story's ramifications. However, the high volume of information and the need for repetition can be tiring and uninspiring for some players, especially those who prefer a more linear progression.
