As a huge Wonder Boy fan, I enjoyed Wonder Boy Returns Remix but it's definitely not a complete improvement over 2017's less than stellar offering.
RAD is the sort of roguelike that's enjoyable once everything starts to click but after that, repetition and frustration unfortunately rear their ugly mutated heads.
Vasara Collection contains 2 incredibly fun classic shoot 'em ups that aren't very well known which makes this collection even more worthwhile.
It may not be as recognizable as many other retro shmups but Zed Blade is definitely worth playing in this day and age.
It's certainly a good-looking and challenging shoot 'em up but Pulstar isn't quite as fun as many other NeoGeo shooters.
If you have a fondness for Psikyo-style shmups then Aero Fighters 3 will make a perfect addition to your gaming library.
With so many must-play retro shoot 'em ups available on modern consoles, Ghost Pilots ends up being one disappointing game.
If you want to see how fun NeoGeo shmups can be then you need to play Prehistoric Isle 2. It's one of the best games in the genre.
Crystal Crisis is definitely a step up from Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo although that step is a rather small one so it ends up feeling more like a retro copycat than a new and exciting puzzler.
If you're a casual RPG fan then you likely won't enjoy Pillars of Eternity: Complete Edition but those who relish in complicated old-school RPG systems, immersive dark fantasy worlds, and challenging encounters will find a lot to love here.
The original may have been disappointing yet Morphies Law: Remorphed manages to offer a heck of a lot of chaotic online mayhem.
Although The Forbidden Arts has a lot of potential, its gameplay is so loose and unsatisfying that it's hard not to be disappointed.
3D space shooters don't get much simpler than Subdivision Infinity DX but its gameplay is certainly tight and challenging enough.
Indies don't get much more captivating than Gravity Ghost with its lovely visuals, spot-on audio, and enjoyable gravity-based gameplay.
Although its sense of uneasiness is well done, everything else about Shadows 2: Perfidia is far too basic to be thoroughly enjoyable.
I'm fairly certain that Epic Clicker Journey is the best game where you just tap on a screen but that's not really saying much is it?
Even though it's enjoyable at first, #RaceDieRun's overly sensitive mechanics make playing it eventually become too frustrating.
Enter the Gungeon was a super-fun game back in 2016 and now, it's even better.
Even if you suffer from bone spurs, going to war as the kickass President Michael Wilson in Metal Wolf Chaos XD is supremely enjoyable.
I had a ton of fun with Forager for the first 10 hours or so but once I got to the point when the pacing becomes tedious, that fun quickly came to a halt.
