Chengu-based developer Leenzee's debut game possesses an impressive world that's dazzling to behold and features solid gameplay systems, yet the state of its PC version on a technical level holds it back from greatness.
A perfectly serviceable dungeon crawler that leans a little on the bland side, but there's still enough here to satisfy people with a deep urge for dungeon crawling or anime slapstick.
To get the most out of No Sleep For Kaname Date, as a spin-off and an interquel, you need to align your expectations in advance. What it sacrifices for in the typical mind-bending mystery, it makes up for with excellent comedy writing.
Yakuza 0 Director's Cut should've been an easy win, but a few baffling decisions hold it back.
Tainted Grail: Fall of Avalon is wonderfully bleak and ambitious, though the experience is marred by a lack of polish that frustratingly still feels like early access.
Front Mission 3 is an excellent game about giant mechas battling out in a modernized geopolitical setting. If only the same could be said for Front Mission 3: Remake.
Raidou Remastered is a charming remake of one of ATLUS' most experimental PS2. It succeeds in preserving that legacy, even if it holds it back from true greatness.

Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time is a free form RPG that delivers in spades with its plethora of quality content, addictive gameplay, and all the enhancements over the first game.
The journey through Azuma is a journey packed with a mish-mash of boring dungeons and weak RPG progression tools, supported by a fun cast of characters and decent story.
CyberConnect2's finale to the Fuga trilogy, while still good, feels almost like an obligation.
This first drop into the roguelike genre with the Souls series is intriguing enough to make me consider exploring future explorations into it, but beyond that, I will happily stick with my exploration-heavy and deep character customization options instead.
MercurySteam's latest project holds a lot of promise, but death by a thousand cuts holds it back from true greatness.
At its best, Yasha's synergistic possibilities with various weapon abilities bring about intriguing bouts of experimentation - yet it isn't quite enough to rectify the mind-numbingly repetitiveness that plagues the entire game from top to bottom.
While Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree is a decent mix of search action and soulslike, it's rough around the edges and does not excel in any particular facet.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is an outstanding debut from a team whose heart and soul come through in every aspect, delivering an exceptional RPG.
This is a great compilation of two breezy and iconic representations of anime-styled fantasy JRPGs in the 1990s.
AI Limit is a pretty good, but overly safe, futuristic soulslike marred with some minor technical issues.
Promise Mascot Agency offers the most unrealistic power fantasy for today's day and age; owning and running a successful business
