Despite some technical issues in the beginning of its life cycle and concerns about its longevity, REMATCH delivers a very fun experience that constantly makes you want to play one more match.

Captain Blood tries to recapture the charm of the PS2's golden era, but unfortunately ends up being a rather mediocre title that misses where it should have hit the mark. There's some merit to its release, partly due to its troubled development, but if you're hoping to find a game that emanates the same energy and does justice to that era, Captain Blood is far from it.

Despite using a similar formula as the popular games from the Overcooked series, No Heroes Here 2 unfortunately fails to engage the players. Each run is too long for its own good and quickly become a chore, which in turn compromises local multiplayer sessions, which just might be the most important aspect of any game in the genre.

Music Drive: Chase the Beat is a Brazilian game full of good intentions, with a great soundtrack and impressive references to give substance to a simple, yet interesting and creative idea. However, despite being short, it is a game that offers very little gameplay variation, has trouble finding a personality that is coherent with the theme and lacks greater care to reach its full potential.

Anger Foot is a FPS with a unique setting, which combines creative mechanics with intense and challenging gameplay. Despite standing out as one of the most original releases of the genre in recent times, the experience ends up being partially compromised by technical issues.

Boxville 2 takes us through a charming point-and-click adventure that unfolds without the use of a single word in an equally beautiful and melancholic universe. The puzzles presented to the player encourage the use of logical and creative thinking, but, in some cases, frustration is inevitable.

Ruffy and the Riverside is one of those pleasant surprises that charms with its simplicity and fun thanks to the SWAP mechanic. A game that draws a lot of attention for its beautiful art direction and that, despite drawing from the sources of Paper Mario, Banjo-Kazooie and other great names in the genre, doesn't live in their shadow. Quite the opposite, Ruffy is a game full of soul that rescues the essence of good old platform titles.

Among so many roguelites released in recent years, Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade ends up being just another one in the crowd. Its visuals and, mainly, its fun gameplay are the highlights, but not enough to make it a memorable game. Repetition, which is usually an ally of the genre, acts as a villain here, wearing down the experience and making the game recommended only for big roguelite fans.

Technically flawless and visually stunning, Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is an exceptional sequel and a clear evolution for a game that was already full of qualities. An even more engaging story with an improved narrative, as well as huge advances in its unique gameplay, are just some of the highlights of one of the best games of the year.

Fuga: Melodies of Steel 3 is an excellent wrap up for the trilogy. It delivers not only a great narrative ending, but a beautiful evolution of the gameplay systems that make it a must-have for fans of the series.

FBC: Firebreak takes players back to the universe of Control, but without many of the traits which made that game so special. The mechanics from this cooperative first-person shooter are functional, but the lack of variety in gameplay coupled with a slow progression system undermine the game, making it a very repetitive experience.

RAIDOU Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army is an excellent remaster of one of the best forgotten PS2 classics and one of the brightest gems in Atlus' catalog. The gameplay, visuals, and quality of life improvements elevate the game and make it even more of a must-have for fans of the genre.

Star Overdrive's large and sprawling open world could have been its biggest problem, but thanks to a delightful and fun movement system, it turned out to be one of its biggest differentiators compared to other experiences in the genre. With its intriguing puzzles, leisurely combat, powerful emerging narrative, and beautiful visuals, it's an easy recommendation for all kinds of players, especially those who aren't in such a hurry to be dazzled.

TRON: Catalyst is a good adventure game set in the TRON universe. The looping mechanics are interesting, as is the combat. However, overall, it is a short, simple game with a reasonable story.

Chronicles of the Wolf is a magnificent spiritual successor to the Castlevanias that followed the metroidvania structure. This game continually surprised me with the depth of its exploration, which is both challenging and intuitive. The retro feel of the experience may end up intimidating to some audiences, but if you enjoy side-scrolling action platformers in general don't let this rich and dark adventure pass you by.

Gex Trilogy brings back three moderately sucessful games from decades ago as part of a preservation iniatiative from Limited Run Games. The Carbon Engine introduces new features which make the games a more pleasant experience overall, but the games on their own will hardly appeal to players who don't already have a nostalgic connection to them.

The best thing about Disney Illusion Island Starring Mickey and Friends is, firstly, the cooperative multiplayer for up to four people and, secondly, the fluidity of the character movements and animations, two factors that partly compensate for the lack of combat and the simplicity of the level design. However, the unambitious production and the lack of use of Disney characters still make it clear that this is a metroidvania that, even if it is fun to play in a group and bears the name of a big brand, was not made to be memorable.

Overture expands the combat options in Lies of P by introducing new weapons, accessories, and thrilling boss battles. Additionally, the DLC plays a key role in deepening the story of central characters while adding new layers to the rich and dark world of Krat.

The Alters stands out with a creative and emotionally rich premise, combining base management, exploration and a deep narrative of identity, choices and coexistence. The idea of interacting with alternative versions of oneself is original and well explored both in terms of mechanics and plot, highlighting an interesting balance between constant pressure, strategic decisions and moments of introspection, which enriches the gaming experience. The proposal is ambitious, well executed and offers a type of engagement that is rare in games of this genre.

Even with the major change of the graphics engine to Unreal Engine 5, Tour de France 2025 retains the main characteristics of a more strategic gameplay, gaining points in terms of the realism of the physics of movement and the visuals, which are still below the standards of games in the sports genre for this generation.
