Although it has a basic concept, there's so much content and fun to be had in ONE BTN BOSSES that you'll spend hours improving your skills. đšī¸
There's some fun to be had with S. Prysm Destroyer but its reliance on trying the same levels again and again makes it feel tedious fast. đ¤
My main gripe is that Monster Hunter Wilds plays too similarly to previous entries but there's still a lot to love including its thrilling hunts against creative monsters, weapon and build diversity, and, of course, the chance to pet Poogie. đ

I'm very happy to have finally experienced Ninja Five-O and if you enjoy retro 2D ninja-based action games, you're sure to love it, too. đĄī¸
2D ninja action games don't get much more fully-featured than Ninja Issen: The Scroll of Dimension and its arsenal of skills is great fun. đĄī¸

As a more open retro RPG with one of the cleverest premises that I've ever seen, Alter Age is a must-have for any old-school RPG enthusiast. đ§
Suikoden I&II HD Remaster is a great excuse to play 2 classics, especially Suikoden II which is one of the best RPGs ever made. Recruiting characters is still extremely enjoyable and it sets it apart from other RPGs so here's hoping for much more Suikoden in the future. âī¸

If you're a new player looking for your next strategy game fix, you definitely can't go wrong with Sid Meier's Civilization VII. However, other than the ages system, I'm hard-pressed to think of what I'm excited about in this new entry when I could just play the previous installment. đī¸
I had a lovely time with Two Point Museum and it's clearly the best, most refined, and unique game in the series so far. It's so great that I'm super-excited to see what's next and how it could possibly top the exhibits on display here. đī¸
