NEO: The World Ends With You is an excellent RPG that satisfies fans wanting more, or newcomers who want a unique experience from their games. However, there are some annoying points where it could worsen your experience.
Blazing Beaks is a crazy adventure where you'll find yourself fighting monsters and searching for artifacts. There's an endless line-up of enemies for you to shoot and blast through. A cute and charming world that increases in difficulty, and as you progress through the levels you'll be hallmarked with plenty of surprises.
An absolutely amazing feat of crafted creativity, and accompanied by a stunning and complimentary score. For those looking for a quirky and methodical movie-length point & click adventure, Papetura is definitely one for the wishlist!
Final Fantasy Remake Intergrade is technically impressive. Fixing many of the original release's technical issues while also improving the game for next-gen hardware. INTERmission offers an excellent character edition with that of Yuffie with some excellent gameplay to boot. Intergrade is simply more of the best parts of Final Fantasy VII Remake.
I found this to be too slow for my liking, but if you want a slow-paced game with lots of idle chit-chat and an occasional battle, then this might be right up your street. The sedate pace and minimalist mechanics will probably divide critics, but this one found it dull and unengaging.
A competent collection of ports that does the bare minimum to bring the series to modern systems. The games themselves are still fantastic action classics but it's a shame all versions couldn't be included.
Sunblaze is a deceivingly cute game that will definitely kick your butt. Luckily with great accessibility options this game is playable for a wider audience and not just a super frustrating experience. Unless you enjoy that.
The Legion of Maelstrom is a retro-inspired turn-based RPG that takes everything you know from games you have played in the past and switches it up to make a totally new experience. This game feels like an RPG from an alternate reality, it's a must-play game that needs to be experienced!
A nice, cheap entry into the match-3 genre, with plenty of anime nudity if you're into that.
An incredibly fun and great looking voxel style game that has you working with people all over the blocky world to take down the alien insects trying to take over the Earth. The game is full of action and insanity that will keep you entertained for a long time!
Space Jam: A New Legacy is a super fun arcade-style beat 'em up starring your favourite Looney Tunes characters and LeBron James teaming up to take down Al G. Rhythm. Highly recommended if you enjoy local multiplayer games, but it is pretty short so don't expect something that will last a long time.
Chivalry 2 is a ton of fun, not overly complicated and will keep you coming back for more.
There is a lot of potential in Dark Nights with Poe and Munro. But, I needed the player to have a more active role rather than a passive one. But, perhaps there is an audience out there for this game and I just may not be it.
Tasomachi: Behind the Twilight is unpolished and suffers from its slow start and lack of story. It's not a standout game, not even a particularly good one...but there's something there. It's an introductory step by a fledgling developer that shows real promise.
Despite some glitches and bugs, and a useless drone, this really is the definitive modern day sniper experience, and definitely recommended.
While there's a chance you can't play it without fiddling with things, there's a fun game in here. It's expensive, with far too much DLC, but it's fun.
Atelier Mysterious Trilogy DX is a brilliant package that makes for a wonderful return to three excellent titles, as well as a great starting point for newcomers to the series.
Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection is a great addition to the classic Ghosts 'n Goblins series. The visuals are beautiful and with the option of different difficulties, abilities to learn and level choices this game is fun to play no matter your skill level.
Scarlet Nexus is easily one of the best games so far this year and a strong contender for game of the year. With addictive gameplay and compelling narrative, there is plenty to love in this Brain Punk vision of a psionic future.
Space Commander is a competent game, with many features and some innovation, turning focus from piloting one ship to managing and controlling a fleet. It can be engaging but unfortunately not for long as it is just too simplified and lacks in variety, depth or challenge.
