Metrico+ in the end left me a bit underwhelmed leaving me to give it a score of 4/10
The game constantly teases something grander than it can deliver. Whether it’s the promise of unique storylines for each of the three protagonists or the allure of a deep combat system with collectible weapons and layered progression, Yasha overpromises and underdelivers in almost every category. It’s the kind of experience where you finish the game, sit in silence, and wonder, “Was that it?” To be honest, Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade feels like a game that was rushed out the door long before it was ready. The foundation is there—beautiful visuals, a culturally rich setting, and a cool premise. But the lack of polish, shallow mechanics, and absurdly short playtime make it hard to recommend to anyone but the most diehard fans of Japanese mythology or side-scrolling action games.
Overall, Looney Tunes: Wacky World of Sports lacks game modes and its biggest issue is there is no option to play online. So, if you don’t have anyone to play with locally you are stuck competing against CPUs and the fun for that can only last so long.
Roots of Yggdrasil had the potential to offer a unique blend of mythology and gameplay, but its inability to break free from the shackles of repetitiveness and lackluster execution of key features relegates it to mediocrity. The vibrant world and diverse characters offer fleeting moments of intrigue, but they are ultimately overshadowed by the game’s failure to deliver a consistently engaging experience. Roots of Yggdrasil struggles to plant its roots firmly in the competitive landscape of roguelike city-building games.
Robin Hood: Sherwood Builders is a disappointing game that fails to deliver on its potential. The game’s attempt to combine base-building with the classic tale of Robin Hood falls flat, and the result is a mediocre and uninspired gameplay experience. The game’s poor graphics and sound design only add to the disappointment. Fans of Robin Hood or base-building games may find some enjoyment in Sherwood Builders, but for most players, this game is best avoided.
Atlas Wept showcases promise with its intriguing narrative and character upgrade systems. However, the sluggish battle system and unbalanced enemy HP create a frustrating experience, making it challenging for players to fully enjoy the game’s potential. While the developer’s dedication is commendable, improvements are crucial to elevate Atlas Wept to its envisioned heights.
It’s not worth the money, let’s face the facts, The Grinch: Christmas Adventures is no holiday smash. Looking for a festive platformer? This is a good option, but be warned it lacks replayability and variety in audio, gameplay, and level design.
I couldn’t help but feel the game just got easier and easier, the powerups and items acquired made the game feel unbalanced, and as you played more and more you became overpowered even though the game is meant to have randomization between runs, it feels there is next to no level scaling. “
PaRappa the Rapper Remastered is a FAILED attempt to revive an old classic game.
Coffin Dodgers is a kart racing title that could have been memorable if it hadn’t missed so many opportunities. Play if you have a youngin’ and you’re looking for something newer. Otherwise, avoid this title like the black plague of death.
Not only is it weird to release a Summer Sports Game in the middle of Winter, but trying to compete with Wii/Switch Sports is a big task, and let’s be honest, while alright, Smoots Summer Games isn’t it, if you really don’t want to spend the money for the first party title, try Deca Sports Instead as you’ll get a much better experience.
Ultimate Zombie Defense 2 puts you in a survival situation where you must hold out against waves of undead. It’s nice to build structures to help you defend against zombies. Unfortunately, there’s nothing unique about the game and it suffers from some bugs. The result is a largely forgettable survival experience easily passed by other games.
Sympathy Kiss is a visual novel that’s got an interesting tech design backstory. With its unique setting, fun characters, and engaging story, it’s a decent visual novel, but compared to other visual novels, it’s not one I feel in love with personally, and wouldn’t be a game I’d recommend for the $49.99 USD ($69.99 CAD) AAA price-tag it comes with.
The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria is a middling survival crafting experience set in J. R. R. Tolkien’s fantasy world of Middle Earth. The lore, voice acting, and the characters are probably the only interesting ideas this game brings to the table, as the rest of the gameplay loop of mining, building, crafting, and surviving isn’t anything that propels the genre forward.
In general, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III has an unimpressive Campaign that is forgettable compared to the rest of the franchise. The game’s multiplayer is expected to carry the load with the return of classic maps that are not even original to the new game and a weird twist on Zombies. The single-player mode of the game does not justify its price.
Dreamworks Trolls Remix Rescue is a decent addition to the kids’ gaming genre, but it doesn’t break new ground. The overreliance on rhythm-based mini-games, while a fun aspect, feels like a recycling of the same formula seen in many other children’s games. If you’re a fan of the Trolls franchise, you’ll likely enjoy the game’s connection to the films and the opportunity to play as your favorite characters. However, for those looking for a truly innovative and standout kids’ game, this may not be the one to choose in a market saturated with similar offerings.
Scene Investigators falls short of its potential to offer a truly engaging detective experience. The 70/30 principle, while promising in theory, tips the scale too far towards uncertainty, making the game feel less like a deductive challenge and more like an exercise in wild conjecture. Despite its immersive murder mystery setting, the game’s execution leaves much to be desired, resulting in a frustrating and unsatisfying experience for those who seek logical, well-structured puzzles.
Knight vs Giant: The Broken Excalibur is a commendable attempt at bringing the Arthurian legend to life in a roguelite action RPG format. With an engaging storyline, diverse gameplay mechanics, and an impressive array of abilities, it offers an enjoyable gaming experience. While there are some minor balancing and environmental concerns, these issues don’t overshadow the overall fun and challenge the game provides.
Alder Forge remains a worthwhile RPG experience despite its flaws. The meticulously crafted game world, filled with enigmas, secrets, and backstories, invites exploration and lore immersion. While quest clarity could be improved, and the visuals could use some extra polish, Alder Forge provides a rewarding journey for those eager to explore its intricacies and embark on the heroic path within its carefully constructed world.
While I’m glad that Lunacy: Saint Rhodes has finally been released after its troubled development, I can’t recommend it due to how disappointingly unpolished it is. On top of its visual and aural shortcomings, it’s not even scary.
