This remake does more than polish up an old title—it retools what didn’t work and gives it purpose. Raidou Remastered keeps its offbeat mystery and detective charm while tightening up the combat and trimming the fat.

8 / 10.0 - Gex Trilogy
Jun 16, 2025

The Gex Trilogy is a faithful return to a distinct era of platforming, preserving the original charm and quirks of all three games.

The Precinct puts you in the driver’s seat and never lets you coast. Every shift’s a coin toss—quiet patrol or crimes in the streets.

Spirit of the North 2 doesn’t need to shout to get your attention—it just quietly hands you a fox, a raven, and a ruined world to explore. The puzzles are smart, the action’s light but purposeful, and the whole thing just flows.
