Kowloon High-School Chronicle is a curious RPG that experiments with its format in many ways. Despite an unfair system of choices based on emotions, this is a unique work within the genre and worth checking out.

Rabisco+ is cute and soundly pleasing, but its gameplay is too simple and uncreative in executing the various mechanics it implements. It's a title that could do much better learning from games like The Witness that, from very simple mechanics, greatly refines and progressively improves one gameplay concept until another is implemented.

Developed by a Brazilian studio, Savage Halloween is an energetic run ‘n’ gun of creative ideas. Among them, there is an emphasis on the plurality of enemies and weapons, which encourage different styles of gameplay. So, in order not to get out of the context of the plot, I dare say that the game is as fun as Halloween parties usually are, even the most unusual ones, like the one presented throughout the campaign.

Mighty Goose invests in the rescue of a style of game that was very successful in the 16-bit era. The title does what it proposes with excellence, hitting the nostalgia factor squarely but bringing elements that can help new players. It's not really a game that will generate interest for a long time, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. After all, being a goose that loves action, even for a short time, is an attraction in itself.

Earth Defense Force: World Brothers is an excellent action game with a good bit of comedy. Even for those who don't have much contact with the genre, it offers guaranteed fun. With its simple and accessible combat, it proves that fighting giant aliens can be a great way to de-stress.

While not a deep adventure, Cannon Brawl presents a good mix of real-time strategy and artillery, both in its solo campaign and in multiplayer mode. Within what it proposes, the title is fun and offers good hours of unpretentious matches, but it also manages to be intense, with many cannons, explosions and fights within an unusual monarchic family.

Myitopia is certainly a peculiar game. The simplicity of its systems and the constant repetition of its gameplay could easily make it just boring and tiring. However, the charisma and heart of the game manage to turn this formula into an addictive experience at times — if consumed in moderation, of course. If you forget about the roleplaying side a bit and accept Miitopia as a slower, more uncomplicated simulation pastime, it's easy to have a good laugh and have a lot of fun.

Sludge Life is a short game that breaks out of the ordinary, offering an exploration environment with lots of unpretentious but still fun elements. Although it doesn't always seem like a game, because it demands very little from the player, the proposal is interesting in itself. Returning to the initial theme, I see Sludge Life much more as an aesthetic experience than a game I want to entertain. And yes, this is very good.

Despite gameplay problems, Poison Control is quite a fun game. The title covers heavy topics in everyday life (like personal hells) and the poison purification mechanic, in particular, is really very peculiar, bringing a unique game within the genre. With a little more polish, it would be an excellent game, but it's still worth it for those who enjoy stylized and experimental games.

With a lot of content, Maneater is a fun and exciting game, mainly because it has creative concepts and unique moments, like the acrobatic jumps that we perform to assassinate humans on dry land and the memorable battles against motorized boats. Despite some flaws, the title is a good choice to spend hours exploring immersive aquatic environments, allowing us to live the other side of the shark stories shown in scary films and television shows.

Save me Mr Tako is a title without great pretensions in the platform genre, but it manages to have a good soundtrack and to be very consistent in its gameplay and narrative. It is faithful to its influences, rescuing a nostalgic tone from that era and adding its own personality. However, a level design that is somewhat repetitive and subutilized game features are its main problems. Despite these caveats, Save me Mr Tako: Definitive Edition is an easy recommendation for platform game lovers who appreciate the aesthetics and gameplay of titles from the 8-bit era genre, especially the Game Boy.

Rising Hell is too small for the environment it builds, but it does have the characteristics of an addictive and intense game, suitable for short bursts. For lovers of the roguelike genre, it is a greater satisfaction to conclude the small campaign and venture into even more challenging difficulties, but it's a bit lacking for more traditional players. After all, hell is certainly terrible, but there are still those who dare to venture there, whatever the cost.

Even with a theme that has been extensively explored culturally, King of Seas is proof that pirate journeys can still bear good fruit in video games. The title delights with its intense battles and detailed RPG progression, which offers a vast leveling system and upgrades. Thus, the adventure is robust and immersive, with an ocean of things to do in the best explorer-style pirate of the Seven Seas.

Potion Party promotes an experience focused on group fun and quick thinking, having a difficulty in harmony with the proposal. Running a potion store in pixel art and with a trail that goes back to the 1990s is not a job, but endless fun. From the beginning, we are captivated by simplicity and even without the presence of an online mode, good laughs will be given and rivalries can arise between friends when playing Potion Party, an indie game that is better than many first party titles.

Tinker Racers is the result of the excellent work of three people. With a simple, direct and full of nostalgia, the brazilians from the Rumbora studio entertain and maintain the challenge by offering great controls. The creative and well-built scenarios amuse from the start, but the repetition makes the smiles go. Still, the game never becomes boring, leaving the desire for a more complete sequence.

Pac-Man 99 is recommended for anyone who wants to be a little distracted and have fun in sparse moments of the day, but not for those who are fans of maze games who are interested in training for hours and improving their skills in online competitions, since, as stated, matches depend a lot on luck, although the improvement of skills also contributes to the performance in matches and the training is not in vain.

It is easy to enjoy Cyber Shadow, as well as to realize that it is the fruit of a lot of love and hard work. The title is undoubtedly one of the most striking releases of 2021 and an indie that deserves to be remembered (and played) for a long time, especially on the Switch. This is a refined game as a whole, which knows how to respect nostalgia without fear of taking certain liberties and fully addresses the issue of the highest difficulty. Be sure to give Cyber Shadow a chance.

The House in Fata Morgana: Dreams of the Revenants Edition is an excellent visual novel that tells an engaging and exciting story. With a very well-built atmosphere thanks to its unique artistic style and its high-quality soundtrack, it is a masterpiece of the genre. As a compilation, the Switch edition is an excellent way to enjoy the game.

Death end re; Quest is a game that reinvents its genre with metalanguage and the mix between different types of games. Without any serious performance problem, it has an immersive and immersive history, being a good option for those who want to escape the traditionalism of RPGs or even for those who like technology in general.

Picross S6 offers a lot of content and a great experience for those who enjoy logic games. As much as the actions seem repetitive, the puzzles are interesting and complex enough to entertain and challenge even the most skilled players. Despite this, for those who already come from other titles in the series, perhaps the feeling will be more of the same, since there is no significant innovation. However, for those who are now arriving in the world of Picross, the almost 500 puzzles will be more than enough.
