For fans of the original, Spirit of the North 2 is a meaningful continuation. It respects the meditative tone of the first game while broadening its horizons with smarter mechanics, better pacing, and a more expansive world. This sequel doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it refines almost every part of what made the original special. It’s still more about reflection than action, more about feeling than plot—but with more tools, more challenges, and more world to lose yourself in. Ultimately, Spirit of the North 2 is a thoughtful evolution of a niche experience. It may stumble at times, but its beauty, ambition, and spirit are undeniable. This is a game that asks you to slow down, to observe, and to immerse yourself in a place where nature and magic intertwine.

8.5 / 10.0 - MotoGP 25
May 6, 2025

Whether you’re returning to MotoGP or this is your first time, you will not be disappointed with your experiences along the way. Milestone has done an amazing job and has brought me back into my love of the franchise.

8.5 / 10.0 - Spreadcheat
May 3, 2025

A pixel-perfect blend of comedy,combat, and cubicle chaos. SpreadCheat is a rare beast: a game that makes Excel feel dangerously cool.

Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero is a charming and enjoyable sequel that captures much of the original’s heart, offering fun tactical gameplay and a touching new adventure for Marona and Apricot. However, its strongest story moments are frustratingly kept behind DLC, which dampens the emotional impact of the journey. It’s sad to say , but the real tragedy of The Lost Hero is that its heart is sold separately.

7.5 / 10.0 - Steel Seed
Apr 26, 2025

Steel Seed delivers an emotional narrative in a haunting world, but stumbles where it matters most, Storm in a Teacup clearly poured their heart into Steel Seed’s story, but by neglecting the equally vital pillars of pacing, gameplay engagement, and atmospheric immersion, the game ultimately delivers an emotional journey that resonates — but doesn’t fully satisfy me.

Well the game is full of nostalgic ’90s charm, it’s bogged down by awkward celebrity cameos that feel more like gimmicks than genuine additions. The core experience is decent, but the over-the-top push to stay relevant by tossing in celebrity fighters actually drags it down more than it elevates it.

7 / 10.0 - Mizuchi
Apr 9, 2025

I certainly don’t think that Mizuchi is for everyone. If you are a fan of Japanese, Chinese, and Vietnamese culture, visual novels, and don’t mind sexual themes in games you will find value in Mizuchi. The presentation in terms of visuals and the music fits perfectly with each event. The overall length is also a highlight, I would say that the initial read is about 4-5 hours and subsequential reads to see all of the additional endings skipping through all repeated conversations could make the full visual novel easily 10-12 hours. There is definitely value for the money spent. For visual novel fans, I think Mizuchi is an excellent addition to your library and is worth playing through multiple times to see the complete story and all possible outcomes for Linh.

9.5 / 10.0 - South of Midnight
Apr 7, 2025

South of Midnight is a rare kind of game: a haunting, heartfelt Southern folktale with modern soul. It’s weird in all the right ways, ambitious in its themes, and stunning in execution. Hazel’s journey is one I’ll remember not just for the battles she fought, but for the songs she heard, the wounds she healed, and the stories she carried with her. This is Compulsion Games’ best work to date, and one of the most distinctive action-adventure games of the year.

8.5 / 10.0 - Koira
Apr 5, 2025

Koira is a beautifully crafted adventure that explores themes of friendship, trust, and the bond between humans and animals. Its stunning visuals, emotive soundtrack, and engaging gameplay create an experience that resonates deeply, even if it is brief. Despite minor technical hiccups, Koira stands out as a shining example of indie storytelling.

Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories & the Envisioned Land feels like it tried to evolve, but grew in all the wrong directions. It trades intimacy for scale, depth for breadth, and ends up feeling like a generic JRPG that happens to have alchemy in it, rather than a true Atelier experience. If you’re in it for the vibes and some light crafting, you might still find some charm here. But for fans hoping for a deeper, more refined entry—this one just doesn’t quite synthesize.

KARMA: The Dark World does a great job in immersing you in a dystopian setting. The horror is prominent and challenges you to think. Some of the puzzles feel unnecessary and you have little guidance for the solutions. The experience is great if you can withstand the mature content and give the story time to flesh out.

6.5 / 10.0 - FATE: Reawakened
Mar 25, 2025

FATE: Reawakened delivers a noticeable graphical improvement over the original games, bringing the classic dungeon-crawling experience into a more modern light, but suffers from a long list of technical problems that significantly detract from the experience. Many of these bugs—particularly those involving item stats, retirement exploits, and missing UI elements—impact core gameplay mechanics, making progression either frustrating or easily exploitable. While the game is still playable, these issues demand urgent attention from developers. Without meaningful patches, the game risks alienating both longtime fans and newcomers alike.

When you first look at Morkull Ragast’s Rage, it looks like an exciting Metroidvania. Once you step into the game, you can see its flaws in the combat system, variety of enemies, skill system, and lack of narrative. The game had potential, but it loses you at a point. I found myself being more frustrated at the combat system than anything.

It's safe to say that Atomfall is not a Fallout clone. With its stunning views and entertaining gameplay, Atomfall is a must-play for those who enjoy open-world survival games. The amount of mystery from the moment you press play keeps you engaged all the way through.
