Mina the Hollower is fascinating on many levels. Its world is captivating, with details everywhere, and challenges that flourish in both movement and melee combat. Given the arsenal of weapons and gadgets, which can drastically alter how the player controls the protagonist, and the non-linear progression, the replay value is immense and should certainly make this title another gem from Yacht Club Games.

Far more than a cheap imitation, LumenTale: Memories of Trey lives up to its influences, delivering an adventure worthy of being in the collection of any fan of monster-catching games. The fact that not even its current technical problems prevent its recommendation is proof that Beehive Studios has managed to create something truly special since its Kickstarter campaign.

Tales of ARISE - Beyond the Dawn Edition stands out as a very beautiful port, bringing combat gameplay that, by far, I can say is very dynamic and fun — the highlight of the game. The title is visually stunning, both in handheld mode and in docked mode on the Nintendo Switch 2. It's a great addition to the Nintendo console's library, highly recommended for both novice and veteran players who want to enjoy the game on the handheld, where it's possible to play anywhere.

Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is an extremely creative and charismatic experience, relying much more on curiosity and experimentation than on traditional challenges. Its calmer pace and focus on discovery certainly won't appeal to all players, especially those looking for constant action or a more straightforward adventure. Still, for those who buy into its premise from the first few hours, it's an addictive, relaxing game full of personality.

Even without focusing on narrative—something perfectly acceptable within the twin-stick shooter genre—Sektori finds its strength in what truly matters: sharp gameplay, intense matches, and a constant desire to try again. For fans of modern arcade challenges, it's a simple experience in structure, but hard to put down.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle arrives on the Switch 2 in a surprisingly well-made port that, despite one or two performance issues in more open environments, proves that the Nintendo platform does indeed have enough power to render current-generation experiences with quality. As a result, this journey worthy of one of cinema's greatest icons is also highly recommended in its Nintendo version.

Drawing inspiration once again from the classics that defined the 1990s and early 2000s, Monster Crown: Sin Eater refines the formula of its predecessor, delivering a truly captivating RPG within the monster-collecting genre. As a result, while there is still considerable room for improvement in a potential third entry, the game stands as a title well worth recommending to anyone who enjoys capturing and training fantastical creatures.

Zombie Rollerz: The Last Ship perfectly understands its premise: to offer fast, over-the-top, and unpretentious fun. Even without reinventing the genre, the game manages to stand out thanks to its mix of frenetic action, simple controls, and a great sense of humor. The technical limitations of the Nintendo Switch version and the visual repetition prevent the experience from reaching an even higher level, but this doesn't detract from the brilliance of genuinely fun gameplay. For those looking for an accessible, chaotic, and personality-filled roguelike, it's worth embarking on this zombie destruction machine—especially if the idea of ​​running over the undead for hours sounds like a good pastime.

I've been following the development of Mouse: P.I. For Hire since its announcement. After Cuphead's success in emulating the rubber-hose feeling, many games tried to replicate the formula and failed miserably (like the aforementioned Bad Cheese and the embarrassing clone Enchanted Portals). Mouse, on the other hand, strives and succeeds strongly in delivering a game that not only pays tribute but forges its own identity. An interesting and highly immersive universe, charismatic characters, a hail of bullets between the sword of justice and villainous scoundrels, and copious (or should I say gnawing?) doses of humor and cheese already make this one of my favorite titles of 2026.

Elementallis is a modest but charming experience. It hits the mark with its classic adventure atmosphere, puzzles, gradual world-building, and an environmental message that truly resonates with the game's premise. Despite some interaction issues and occasional bugs, it's a title that showcases good ideas and enough personality to warrant the attention of those who enjoy this style of adventure.

Mullet MadJack is a title that's quite easy to recommend for fans of shooting games. Its fast-paced gameplay is engaging and addictive, and the OVA anime aesthetic — complete with high-quality Brazilian dubbing — makes it a true trip down memory lane for those nostalgic for the 1980s and 1990s. So, if there was any doubt, it no longer exists: saving the influential princess by controlling Jack and his unmistakable mullet is a must-play on the Nintendo Switch as well.

Pragmata is video games at their best. Even though it's a relatively short experience, it delivers excitement, unique gameplay, and a universe with great potential for expansion. It can function as a self-contained work, but it also opens the way for sequels or even a new major science fiction franchise.

Ultimately, Ys Memoire: Revelations Celceta is a solid and engaging experience that shines primarily in its fast-paced and well-structured combat. Even with minor narrative inconsistencies, the game perfectly captures the adventurous spirit of the series, making it an excellent way to revisit, or discover, this classic journey.

Pokémon Champions proved to be an extremely fun game, with a system for testing new builds that quickly becomes addictive. For competitive veterans, this title is indispensable, even with the reduced number of items and Pokémon; those who follow the community know that the Scarlet & Violet scene was already saturated. For newcomers who have always been curious about entering the world of battles but found the process too difficult, this is the perfect game. It offers the ideal tools to learn the fundamental concepts and take the first steps on this journey to becoming a Pokémon master.

MotionRec makes excellent use of platforming and action elements in its puzzles, which have a learning curve that is, for the most part, well-designed and enriching for the player's experience with each discovery. The game is relatively short, but in this case, that seems ideal, as it manages to provide that brain stimulation with each solution without overdoing the quantity in order to maintain quality.

Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream is a pleasant and much-anticipated surprise for a gentle series that had been dormant. Its small additions to improve gameplay, such as more identity options and enhanced environments, are very welcome and make all the difference in appreciating the little things in virtual life.

Having become a fan of the series relatively recently, I can say that Legacy of Kain: Ascendance disappointed me. I admit it's bold in expanding the franchise's horizons into new genres and further exploring its universe. The soundtrack is very good, imposing and captivating, the voice acting is respectful, and it's good to see Raziel again. However, the game lacks the strength to attract new players based solely on its name and may alienate fans with its poorly developed story, amateurish gameplay, and, frankly, the emptiness of its existence. It's effectively a useless title for the series, and only the most bloodthirsty fans might be interested.

Marvel MaXimum Collection is a decent example of preservation. The collection contains an interesting selection of games and alternative versions, with welcome life enhancements and a well-constructed gallery. However, it doesn't encapsulate much of Marvel's humble past in gaming and doesn't offer strong reasons to buy beyond X-Men, the Carnage duology, and, if you're a masochist, Silver Surfer. It's a competent collection, but it could offer a little more to pay tribute to its origins.

Super Meat Boy 3D is the return of the king of pain. A worthy sequel to this indie icon. Minor stumbles in its presentation don't tarnish the franchise's reputation, especially with precise controls, the same charisma as always, and the progressive increase in difficulty, making this a great addition to the current platforming game scene.

Darwin's Paradox! is a great game and I highly recommend playing it. If you're one of those players who are a little tired of very long titles or those with convoluted mechanics and stories, this game is for you! Furthermore, because it's a light and quick experience to finish, it provides that good feeling of finally completing another item on your list.
