Sniper Elite Resistance keeps all the qualities and, unfortunately, all of the flaws of the previous numbered entry, of which is more a stand-alone downloadable content than a sequel. The problem is that the price is that of a full-blown game, and if you value it as such, it's much harder to overlook the massive reuse of mechanics, assets and maps. Still a solid buy for the long-time fans of Karl Fairburne, but not the overhaul the series desperately need.

Ravenswatch masterfully blends dark-fantasy storytelling with engaging roguelike mechanics. The unique characters, each with distinct abilities and rich backstories, elevate both the narrative and gameplay. While the secondary missions can feel repetitive, the cooperative dynamics and high replay value make it a standout title for fans of the genre.

Dynasty Warriors Origins embodies everything fans of the musou genre have always dreamed of for their favorite series. This installment raises the bar in terms of quality and, in many ways, sets a new standard for the genre, appealing not only to longtime fans but also to newcomers, while laying a solid foundation for the future of the entire franchise. From its storytelling to the revamped combat mechanics, nearly every piece falls perfectly into place. Despite a few hiccups and some rough edges that still need polishing, it's impossible not to appreciate the fantastic work done by the team at Omega Force.

Civilization VII – just like every chapter in the series – is a game that should be appreciated over time, especially in a case like this, where the radical desire to take a step towards the future is evident.

Tales of Graces F Remastered is a game that might leave you somewhat indifferent if you look only and exclusively at the graphics. However, the numerous internal improvements, the novel options and the smoothing out of the edges typical of jrpg's of the old era, may bring a new audience to the saga or attract all those who for some reason skipped over this good and perhaps under-celebrated chapter.

The quality of its level design, the two-player coop and a wealth of stages, including the 3DS ones, are enough to recommend a purchase, but Donkey Kong Country Returns HD is sort of lazy if compared to other remastered versions of Nintendo old classics. If you have already played it before elsewhere, there is really no reason for a second playthrough.

Ys Memoire The Oath in Felghana is a love letter from Falcom to both one of their longest-running franchise and its fans worldwide, who grew up with the adventures of Adol Christin and its companions. We're talking about a fast paced action-rpg that doesn't outstaysits welcome and will please anyone who's looking for no-brainer action and a stylish soundtrack.

Flint Treasure of Oblivion is a SRPG lite that puts the story and characters at the front, but leaves much to be desired in the gameplay and quantity of content departments. If you really love pirates and strategy RPGs can still be a decent choice, but the price is very high at launch and the game is very rough on a technical point of view.

The Thaumaturge doesn't bring anything groundbreaking to the table and doesn't quite measure up to its more illustrious predecessors. Yet, it tells a compelling and intriguing story, enriched by a setting deeply shaped by its social and political context.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind is a nice nostalgic beat'em up, which manages to fully capture the atmosphere of the original show. It is not a game up to TMNT: Shredder's Revenge or Street of Rage 4, currently the benchmarks in the classic scrolling beat 'em up genre, but its variety of levels and simple and fun gameplay, especially thanks to the heterogeneity of enemies, make it very enjoyable, especially in company.

The Spirit of the Samurai has a great and evocative imagery and a delightful stop-motion style. The merits end there, because the game developed by Digital Mind Games has problematic hitboxes and lacks of precision in attacks and jumps, ending up frustrating the players.

Among Ashes is one of those indie titles that should be celebrated for its great ability to break out of the box through brilliant narrative and game design solutions. However, it has to curb its ambitions because of so many technical problems due to its low budget.

G.I. Joe: Wrath of Cobra is an enjoyable side-scrolling beat-'em-up, especially for fans of the genre and the animated series, but it doesn't go beyond being a classic, straightforward effort. The game features a solid combat system-simple yet with a touch of depth in its mechanics-and a great cast of playable characters. There are also some extra modes and secret characters to unlock, although you'll need to grind the same levels quite a bit to unlock everything. On the Switch, the game suffers from frequent slowdowns and a few annoying bugs, which we hope can be resolved soon.

UFL is a title still far from reaching its true potential-a work in progress that requires time to meet the high expectations of virtual football enthusiasts (or even just to deliver on the promises made at its announcement). Its more dynamic style, which places less emphasis on realism, does work, but there are still many limitations, both in terms of content and the overall quality of the gameplay experience. In short, the path ahead is steep, and it's far from being an easy goal into an empty net.

The beloved 1994 game Little Big Adventure: Twinsen's Quest has been reimagined by [2.21] and Microids with a charming new graphic style that keeps the game's distinctive feel while making it more appealing for today's players. The same can't be said for the gameplay, which, despite some minor improvements, still feels too outdated and uneasy to be enjoyable for younger players.

In a generation dominated by often superficial games, Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1&2 Remastered reminds us how video games were capable of telling profound and engaging stories even over twenty years ago.

On Your Tails is one of the most charming and surprising adventures we've played this year, even when it's held back by some gameplay flaws.

Fairy Tail 2 is a title that struggles to convey the genuine fun typical of the adventures born from Hiro Mashima's pen. Behind a combat system that is overall decent and enjoyable-particularly in small doses and during boss fights-lies a formulaic and at times fragile JRPG that fails to rise above mere mediocrity. A major disappointment, it is recommended only for die-hard Fairy Tail fans who might still be able to overlook its evident shortcomings.
