Ara: History Untold was supposed to be that game capable of making you forget Civilization VI after about eight years, but even this time we will wait for the seventh chapter to throw away our lives one turn at a time. The title developed by Oxide Games looks really good, has a decidedly flashy graphic design and also has some interesting flashes, but it is a strategy game whose focus is difficult to understand and which ends up a victim of its cumbersome micromanagement, which pervades every turn and which has taken away a lot of attention from the sectors that would have required more care, such as diplomacy, technologies and those variants indispensable in the late game.

Disney's Epic Mickey: Rebrushed is a solid revitalization of a work with grand ambitions, perhaps weighed down by the high expectations surrounding its creator. While it remains a good game, straddling the line between platformer and action-adventure, the overall quality feels somewhat inconsistent. The remaster smooths out some of the game's more notorious rough edges and improves certain aspects of gameplay, but it can't fully overturn the fate of a title that needed to do much more to leave a lasting impression.

It was said that the Fearless Squire would be a hero remembered for generations to come, and in a way, so it has proven. The bravery of Jot is the kind found in those rare games that dare to be bold and original, standing out in a vast sea of creations content merely to drift, avoiding the depths by surrendering to the currents. The playful tenderness of this unlikely hero, though it may not always fulfill its lofty ambitions in the realm of play, still shines through in a journey that uplifts not only those who join Jot in the quest to topple the wicked Humpgrump, but the very essence of the game itself. And if this be not a heroic feat worthy of legend, dear children, then what, pray tell, could be?

Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions didn't completely win us over. On one hand, it's simple and fun to play, but on the other, this same accessibility proves to be a double-edged sword, as boredom sets in rather quickly. It doesn't help that the game launches with limited content, which makes it even easier to get tired of Quidditch matches sooner than expected. As with all online games, much will depend on how the publisher manages it in the coming months: we'll see if they allow Unbroken Studios to keep working on and improving the game as planned.

Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster happen to be both the best version of the game and a giant missed opportunity. The complete graphics overhaul is very welcome but it ends highlighting even more the age of the AI routines and the inaccurate hitboxes, which are both straight from the 2006 version. Still a good and goofy action game overall, but compromises have to be accepted to fully enjoy it.

Frostpunk 2 puts its gameplay at the service of the story and, through simple game mechanics, manages to make the player experience strong emotions and a constant moral dilemma.

Gundam Breaker 4 is likely a dream come true for any fan of the franchise. The ability to customize your Gunpla down to the smallest detail makes this game ideal for long-time collectors of models from the series who can’t wait to experiment with the endless parts available. However, the game is not without its flaws, which are hard to overlook, even for die-hard fans. For instance, while the combat is enjoyable due to the variety of builds you can create, it feels underdeveloped in several areas. Additionally, most missions follow a similar structure, leading to a sense of repetition early on. The story is nothing remarkable, though younger players might find it appealing. On the other hand, the multiplayer component could be a significant plus if you’re able to find a well-coordinated team to play with.

NBA 2K25 remains a great game for basketball enthusiasts and makes strides compared to its predecessor, but it doesn't hide the fact that it knows it can rest comfortably on its throne, especially since no one is even trying to challenge it.

We certainly didn't expect that Squirrel with a Gun could be a qualitatively thick work, but after playing it we found some of his ideas so brilliant and fun that we left a little regret for the overall final result.

Capcom is doing a great job with its Collections dedicated to fighting games of the past and this Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics is another jewel that collects seven titles that have made the history of the genre.

The Last Alchemist is a simulation game that takes place in a charming fantasy setting with cute creatures and talking mushrooms. The game swings between crafting stages and exploration, providing an overall pleasant experience with an interesting storyline as well as occasionally overly challenging gameplay.

Astro Bot is a gem, a game crafted with heart that manages to unite tradition and innovation. Despite its "small" size, the latest title from Team Asobi delivers an extraordinary experience thanks to the power of the PS5 and the clever use of the DualSense.

My Steam library is full of Warhammer 40,000 themed titles, very few reach the sufficiency, a handful are good games and the circle of the great ones is very small. Space Marine 2 is now added to this list of chosen ones, a feast for the eyes and a faithful reproduction of the universe created by Games Workshop, a dream come true for those who grew up with this saga.

Concord is an immense waste of resources (and it's not even a free-to-play), a project that also runs the risk of not being able to recover in the long run.

Deadlink is a refreshing and intoxicating roguelite fps that we cannot avoid recommending. It's fast paced, the shooting is good, the upgrade system is clever and the quantity of content is not an issue. We only wish it was more various in its map layout and enemy types, but there's a lot to love here for fps fans.

Age of Mythology: Retold is the perfect blend of past and present. The development teams wisely chose not to overhaul the foundations of one of the best RTS games ever made, focusing instead on fine-tuning and making significant improvements to the gameplay, which is now much smoother and more modern. Alongside these enhancements, the game boasts excellent graphics and a much more functional and intuitive user interface. The only aspect that ties Age of Mythology: Retold to its original era is the tone of the various campaigns, with a style of writing that may no longer appeal to today's players.

Emio - The Smiling Man looks like it came out from the '80s, thanks to gameplay mechanics unbelievably dated that hold up its true potential.

Visions of Mana aims to bring players back to a classic RPG experience reminiscent of the 1990s. Accepting these conditions, you'll still find a pleasant, colorful action RPG that can entertain you for a good number of hours-nothing more, nothing less.
