9 / 10.0 - Pikmin 4
Aug 1, 2023

In Pikmin 4, you as a stranded astronaut on planet Earth must search for the other crew members of your spaceship. Fortunately, you have a trusty biped and dozens of docile Pikmin to help you with that. It's a game that plays wonderfully and lets you explore a world at your leisure full of treasures, obstacles and enemies that you have to face. There are a number of new challenges that offer a different gameplay experience and are a welcome, enjoyable change from exploring. Do not expect a very challenging game, but a very successful game to take your mind off it.

WarioWare: Move It! is a wonderfully smooth game full of funny, varied and creative microgames that make good use of the possibilities of the Joy-Cons. It's everything you'd expect from a WarioWare game, although the party mode for three or four players is a disappointment. The pace is slow in this mode and because each player has not two, but one Joy-Con, the game registers all the poses and movements you have to do a lot less well. The two-player story mode is by far the best this bright, strange and funny game has to offer.

7 / 10.0 - Bayonetta 3
Nov 16, 2022

Bayonetta 3 is a great game that plays away nicely after a difficult start, but does not always convince completely. The first hour players probably won't mind anything thrown at them, but for newcomers it's quite overwhelming. That applies not only to the story, but also to the controls and the like. The makers seem to have assumed that you already know how everything works. The game feels graphically dated, especially in the cut scene. However, you get used to it quickly and it doesn't really get in the way of the game.

Fans have had to wait thirteen years for it, but The Settlers is back! It plays well and looks very nice, but soon the game turns out to offer less challenge and variety than hoped. Playing online is an important part of the game, but it doesn't work well: a game takes too long and technical problems make it difficult to complete an entire game. The game is popular, but does not taste like more.
