The Mageseeker: A League of Legends Story is a great invitation for those who want to know more or simply start their journey through the rich mythological world of Runeterra. With satisfying and exciting combat, this aspect is a good draw for anyone who enjoys action games. It's not formidable, but it shows the quality of Riot Forge's ability to create experiences with different approaches using League of Legends intellectual property.

Storyteller's main merit is the playful way in which the puzzles must be solved, in addition to a cute art direction full of charisma. However, its shallow and little-used execution makes the game uninteresting very quickly, making it nothing more than an uncommitted pastime with a challenge that does not generate much engagement for the player.

DREDGE mixes moments of contemplation and relaxation with good doses of mystery and exploration. It's an experience whose pacing depends a lot on how the player wants to interact in the game world and rewarding it, regardless of which approach will give the most anxiety during their solitary and mysterious adventure.

KartRider: Drift makes a humble addition to the list of games as a service that are worth checking out to invest your time thanks to accessible gameplay, ease of finding matches and the freedom to choose where to play without compromising your progress to a single platform. They are good excuses to have it installed on more than one device to enjoy one or another race whenever you have a little time to spare.

Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is a testament to how Team Ninja has complete mastery when it comes to making a quality action RPG. The agile and rewarding combat, hallmark of the studio's work, reached its best form in what can already be considered one of the best games of 2023.

Deck 'Em! It's a great choice for anyone looking for something extremely simple and uncompromising to play and occupy small gaps of time in their day-to-day life. The PC version arrives as an interesting option for this purpose, but it does not surpass the practicality of the mobile version due to its simplicity and super casual proposal.

Despite its small issues, Atomic Heart is the first product of a small studio that still manages to be a positive highlight among big titles already available in 2023. With updates improving navigation and gameplay, I believe Mundfish can make the player experience much better as the year goes on.

Pharaoh: A New Era is a great adaptation of a management game classic by today's standards. The player's quality of life when experiencing more than 4000 years of history in one of the greatest civilizations of humanity is the main feature of this competent remake thanks to improvements in gameplay, graphics and especially the soundtrack. The gods are pleased with the return of this work.

Blanc is a great pick for those who want a simple, casual, fast play with a friend in a captivating story. However, even though it's an interesting co-op experience, technical limitations may leave an unpleasant experience due to small details that can make playing it online less attractive.

OddBallers delivers a very fun multiplayer experience thanks to a humorous art direction and a simple gameplay that can be fun for every kind of player. A big issue is that Ubisoft showed a horrible distribution work, applying an univiting price to an experience that would have fit perfectly the free-to-play [method], launching a fun game that's already abandoned. A shame.

Clunky Hero is a very humble adventure that needs more polishment to be considered a really pleasant and interesting experience. [The developers] did not pay enough attention to its gameplay, level design and audio to make the general presentation better, which ends up making the game more Clunky than Hero.

Monster Hunter Rise is a true exponent of everything the franchise has presented over almost two decades of existence. With subtle improvements in gameplay, the game's arrival on more platforms could make this the greatest of all games in the series ever released in Capcom's history.

Need for Speed Unbound manages to reinvigorate a long-lived franchise that still manages to stand out, even after almost 30 years of existence. The aesthetics and atmosphere of the game refer to the golden times of NFS Underground and NFS Hot Pursuit with elements that make the experience modern and fun. It's a title that could be the starting point for a new generation of the series after many years of ups and downs.

Despite not innovating anything in the roguelike genre, Impaler is a very honest recommendation for anyone looking for a few hours of cheap fun with minimalist graphics and a fair challenge for any player profile, be it a fan of first-person shooters, roguelikes , or even both.

Bravery and Greed is a great option for fun and addictive gameplay with friends in an engaging roguelite experience, despite not innovating within the genre. The desire to play a new game is always great after filling the pockets with each new attempt to get filthy rich.

McPixel 3 is a great choice for those looking for something more casual and light for their gaming moments. With a predominant and often exaggerated humor, this indie title has a unique and unpretentious vibe that yields good laughs and a little work for those who want to complete it. You can play while eating popcorn, but be careful not to get butter on your controller.

God of War Ragnarök manages to be exquisite in everything it set out to do. Santa Monica Studio gives a real lesson in how a sequel should be made, exceeding all expectations in terms of graphics, performance, gameplay and storytelling in the best action adventure game of recent times. If the God of War franchise ever had a heyday, it has been surpassed.

The Winters Expansion has brought an interesting content addition to Resident Evil Village. The story expansion is modest, with few really interesting new features due to the attempt to make Rose replicate her father's journey in the same scenarios as the main game. The third-person mode gives a new approach to the gameplay, but for creative decisions it chooses to keep the first-person perspective in the story segments. The Mercenaries: Additional Orders mode was the winner with content that yields good hours of gameplay.

A Plague Tale: Requiem is an excellent continuation of one of the most remarkable stories in gaming today. With exquisite direction, narrative and gameplay make a virtually perfect marriage of one of the best single player experiences of 2022.

Gotham Knights is a project that could have become a new stage on superhero videogame experiences but became a victim of what Batman's big legacy has already brought to the genre as a game that will inevitably be forgotten and purposely ignored.
