Choice of Life: Wild Islands isn't one of the most innovative games in terms of audiovisual aspects, nor does it revolutionize the gameplay principles of the interactive narrative genre, but it effectively manages to create countless branching possibilities within its diverse stories, valuing the player's power of choice and offering satisfying rewards to those most dedicated to exploring its possibilities.

It's always great to find games inspired by films that respect and embrace the entire universe created. RoboCop: Rogue City - Unfinished Business is one of those games that tells an excellent story, adding significantly to the lore established by the films. It's remarkable that the title knows exactly where it's going and manages to deliver on its promises. The new additions bring a certain freshness, enriching the narrative without losing the essence established by Rogue City. A great action game and an excellent addition to the RoboCop universe.

Despite being a title worthy of its legacy, the new version of Neverwinter Nights 2 is anything but Enhanced. Aside from graphical upscaling and the fact that it includes all expansions in a single package, the console port is unfortunately inferior compared to the original version released for PC in 2006.

There's no doubt that Edens Zero manages to adapt a dense and complex story into an extremely accessible action RPG format. However, aspects such as gameplay, visuals and narrative structure show incredible unrealized potential, resulting in an adaptation that takes little advantage of what Hiro Mashima's incredible work has to offer.

Ready or Not is an excellent cooperative first-person shooter. The immersion is fantastic, with outstanding realism. There are many moments of tension and team communication. However, there are some issues, such as the single-player bots being quite difficult to control. Furthermore, the game was clearly designed for five players, so many levels become unnecessarily long and difficult with fewer players.

The Last Camp can be defined, in a nutshell, as a generic game in all its aspects. A poor narrative, rehashed visuals from much more interesting productions and a gameplay that is (at best) functional mark out a bureaucratic, sloppy and soulless project.

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.

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.
