Tormented Souls is a great tribute to the old school survival horror genre. The Chilean studio, Dual Effect Games, demonstrates great mastery and knowledge of the elements that made horror games great back in the day. Although graphically it is not very impressive and the presentation is kind of cheesy, the setting, the atmosphere and the monsters are so well designed that the resulting experience is particularly immersive. Tormented Souls strengths definitely outweigh its weaknesses. If you are looking for a typical horror experience from the late 90s and early 2000s, Tormented Souls is a must.

Twelve Minutes show us why video games are a powerful medium to tell stories that cinema cannot. With great voice acting, outstanding creative decisions and original mechanics, Twelve Minutes is everything mystery games enthusiasts could ask for.

Psychonauts 2 exists and it is almost a miracle that we have it in our hands. It seemed that its genre was dead to many and the failure of its first installment made us understand why no money-gowned wanted to touch the franchise even with a stick. That said, the collective effort of the community; the enormous talent and heart of the Double Fine team and the work of Xbox Game Studios made it happen. It's an excellent game that I'll be grateful for proving that 3D platformers can be more than just toys for kids.

ROAD 96 is so much more than an indie point-and-click. It's a solid recommendation despite its obvious limits. This small world created by Yoan Fanise and DigixArt, suggests that there is still a lot to see from the Indie scene. What else can I say about this game? Perhaps whoever has lived it will understand, because for me ROAD 96 is Jeremy by Pearl Jam; Something in the Way by Nirvana; Nutshell by Alice in Chains; Firestarter by The Prodigy and 1979 by The Smashing Pumpkins, all at the same time and made into video game form.

Greak: Memories of Azur es un juego con una buena dirección artística, mecánicas bien implementadas, combate satisfactorio y lleno de detalles que demuestran el cariño con el que fue realizado. El manejo de 3 personajes principales y la resolución de acertijos ponen el toque más original del juego, mientras que además toma influencias de obras icónicas como Hollow Knight y Ori para hacerlo un mejor título.

Ace Attorney Chronicles is a journey back in time, a lovely example of what happens when you sink into the pages of classics like Oliver Twist and explore a place and a time you don't know, but with the humor and color typical of anime. The case that comes to mind is Samurai Champloo, set during the shogunate and with many examples of what was lived in Feudal Japan, but without seeking to be a kind of history in shape. The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles is to be one day in a courthouse in Japan and then in London, with the intensity of the trials, the satisfaction of finding the contradictions in the testimonies, watching the scales of the jury tip in your favor, dancing for the deductions and the reward of shouting objection!

Cris Tales take inspiration from many RPG games that shaped players in Latin America. Despite its ups and downs, its a good and attractive is an adventure that will keep you entertained for hours. Thinking of it as an entry level RPG, Cris Tales goes as a solid recommendation; it's not something to write home about, but it is worth it and, without a doubt, it's one of the most interesting games created in Latin America.

I would not say that Skyward Sword HD radically changes my opinion of the original, although it did let me see in in a new light. It still has a lot to do to keep up with the best installments of The Legend of Zelda since it highs are good, but the lows points lack the quality the franchise is known for.

Death's Door es un juego que cumple en todos los aspectos: un control responsivo, mecánicas interesantes, historia satisfactoria, rejugabilidad y dificultad bien diseñada. Diifícil pensar en no recomendarlo a cualquiera que juegue videojuegos. Death's Door una vez más nos demuestra que un título indie puede ser un gran juego y competir por lo mejor del año sin necesidad de gastar millones de dólares. Directo a lo mejor del año.

NEO: The World Ends With You is Square Enix's bid to revive a game that achieved cult status. Unfortunately, this sequel does not dare to take risks and, consequently, it is not very endearing. With a slow start, after so much pressing buttons you will question whether to continue the adventure, fortunately, the pace of the game improves over time and the charisma of its characters will make you continue to the end.

For the second year in a row, the official game of Formula 1 will be a delight for fans of this category and those passionate about motorsport. Likewise, F1 2021 is already one of the best sports simulators out there and in terms of its own history, it is the best Formula 1 game so far.

Mario Golf Super Rush has solid golf mechanics, but a lack of content and charisma transform it into an unforgettable experience.

Guilty Gear -Strive- has the opportunity to establish itself as one of the best fighting games today. Its systems are dynamic and offensive-oriented, which results in spectacular and aggressive fights that exploit technical fundamentals in battle. At the same time, it invites new players with simple and easy to understand commands, however, it fails to captivate them in the long run. Guilty Gear -Strive- shy away from perfection as there is unbalance and feels incomplete.

Is Legend of Manaworth it ? This is an answer that varies depending on what each player is looking for. If you want to try something different and taste it accompanied by the great work that M2 did, this is definitely a dish for you. If, on the other hand, you are looking for a more "conventional" adventure, you'd better let the world of Fa'Diel remain in its lethargy.

Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade looks great with better textures and lighting. Also, having the option to play it at 60 fps is a god send and makes it the definitive edition of a modern classic. INTERmission is a nice extra that fans of the JRPG can't afford to miss.

Scarlet Nexus shines for a simple but very complete and fun battle system, as well as having an organic concept that convinces. Its slow pace of the narrative and lack of exploration make the experience somewhat tiresome, however its well-developed story will keep you tuned until the end.

If you're a fan of Alex Kidd,the 80s or if you're curious to try an experience like those of 35 years ago, you'll be delighted to know that the game is now available for Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC and that it recovers all the elements of the original game but now in 16:9. On the other hand, if you don't like to submit to games where trial and error are the norm, you can always pay tribute to the franchise by playing something simpler, a classic stone, paper or scissors.

Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 is a good game that delivers in almost every aspect and definitely hits the target on the sniping sections.

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is a fun and charming adventure with good level design and better movement options. Just like other Insomniac's projects it can feel derivative and safe, but that doesn't take away from its quality.
