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.

Marvel Rivals is a solid hero shooter, undoubtedly fun, but it conceals a stale game design beneath the mask of a fresh and effective aesthetic. Those who are tired of hero shooters will find little of interest in the few gameplay innovations Marvel Rivals offers. However, others will enjoy what is certainly the best title in the genre currently on the market, bolstered by an active community (at least for now).

Infinity Nikki is the definitive evolution of the series, and while it's jam-packed with gacha mechanics and currencies to navigate with, it manages to effectively engage and make you want to create your perfect outfit (and wardrobe).

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is one of the best adventures in the series, capable of recreating the great atmosphere of the early days and offering players a story that fits well into the timeline. However, the first person perspective makes it lose much of the dynamism we would expect from an Indiana Jones game.

The Early Access launch gives us a product that is incomplete in theory (6 classes to unlock, 3 acts to develop), but already extremely concrete in practice .

Fantasian Neo Dimension is a perfectly fine old-school JRPG, fit for both veterans and newcomers of the genre. It's just that we expected a little more from Sakaguchi-san, whose masterpieces we grew up with on both Nintendo and Sony machines.

Fitness Boxing 3: Your Personal Trainer tries to surpass the ambitions of its predecessors, but with a mix of new features that aren't always coherent with the spirit of the product itself.

Instead, it is difficult to think that it can attract those who have already spent about ten hours on other shores, but there is also some reserve for those who only own Switch: Stray is nice, it is relaxing, but it lasts very little and offers very basic game mechanics.

Nor a sudden war neither fifteen years in development stopped the people at GSC Game World to show their potential once again: S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Heart of Chornobyl delivers on almost all fronts, giving us a cruel and immersive world in which we can all get lost. We already know we won't have to wait too long for multiplayer and mod support, but let's also hope we won't have to wait another fifteen years for another game like this.

We wholeheartedly recommend S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Legends of the Zone Trilogy for both its gameplay mix of action, stealth and roleplaying and for the very convenient price of the package, which will cost you less than a new release on Nintendo Switch. The quality of the port is great too, so we don't see a single reason not to give these games a go.

Mea Culpa is the satisfying DLC of Blashemous 2 sewn gracefully on all lovers of the main adventure. More challenging in the boss battles and more complex in the platforming stages, in the three hours or so of gameplay, the game also reveals some surprises related to the saga's history that fans cannot ignore.
