Loot Hero DX is a cool game if you have nothing to play and are just bored. It is a title that brings a feeling of worthlessness, as if everything you are doing is meaningless, and it does not provide greater incentives to stab enemies again with the spear.

Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time honors its own name, serving as the much-deserved sequel to the original trilogy. Naturally, it has flaws, but it gets it right by perfecting the gameplay and elements for which the series became known, such as linear stages and centralized platform challenges. In addition, it also brings hints of novelty in the form of Quantum Masks and extra characters. We don't know what the future holds for the series, but if Crash 4 is any sign, we can say that we are in good hands.

Mixing the hardcore platforming genre with golf, Golf Zero comes out with a point above par. Fast and diverse, the game stands out thanks to a good dose of challenge, precise gameplay and humor, since sacrificing your golfer to find the perfect curve is one of the practices necessary to progress in the game. But judging by the cover, many players will fail to enjoy a great game of the genre, as there are sure to be good hours of fun and challenge to complete all stages with the gold medal.

Two Point Hospital brings an efficient resource management and simulation experience to the consoles. With a lot of variety, humor and content, the title does what it proposes almost perfectly. On the Switch version , specifically, the amount of information on the screen hinders visibility in the portable mode. In addition, the little challenge in the early stages and the amount of tutorial information can bother more experienced players. Those who go through these first moments, however, will find not only a large amount and variety of content, but also challenge in the right measure.

Battle Brothers is a title worth having in your library. The lack of a learning curve and tutorial are issues that limit the game to a certain audience. Although there are some port problems, the experience is not affected. The simplicity of the battle system and the deep management mode add personality to the game and set the right tone for this strategic RPG. The title seems to have been developed so that the player will play it again many times, and believe me: you will want to play it many times.

Root Film is an excellent example of visual mystery novels. With an impeccably conducted storyline, its story has very interesting cases and the voices help to give the necessary drama to the events. Thanks to this, the small problems are practically irrelevant and anyone looking for a good game of the genre is likely to have guaranteed fun.

What pleased me most about Space Otter Charlie was its ability to be a platform title that seeks to reinvent itself. Zero-gravity mechanics, which sometimes refer to some Super Mario Galaxy worlds, but are redesigned in 2D, are well applied and offer good moments, especially in puzzles. Thus, the combination of talking animals in space, with humorous dialogues and exquisite gameplay, is a journey in the stars that enchants, even if everything ends up practically at the speed of light.

Anodyne 2: Return to Dust is a surprisingly fascinating game. Merging 3D and 2D gameplay, it offers a vast world for exploration and fascinating microcosms that allow the player to sift through the feelings and obsessions of New Terreland residents. Despite some small problems, it is an adventure game whose universe is thought-provoking and invites the player to dive into its history.

NeoGeo Pocket Color Selection Vol. 1 offers a quality retro experience. The collection features an interesting selection of action and fighting adventures, and all titles together offer hours of fun. When it comes to features, there are basic options and a few extras, and it's a shame that some of the issues in the individual titles persist here. In the end, NeoGeo Pocket Color Selection Vol. 1 is a great way to get to play some of the biggest highlights of the SNK portable console.

Overcoming obstacles to reach the truth is the main motto of Gnosia, which can be translated into the Latin expression “through the difficulties for the stars”. With quick matches that can be completed in 20 minutes or less, you can feel the tension of playing a multiplayer in single player mode. With a sci-fi ambience that abuses the theory of the multiverse, this indie is, above all, an intriguing continuous experience, sometimes a little repetitive, that promises to arrest the player from beginning to end. In addition to stimulating logical capacity, the title presents another point of view on parallel universes that can even put our own existence in check. Are loops a metaphor for life?

Despite the limitations and problems with level design, Birthday of Midnight is recommended for lovers of more casual action-puzzle games. On the Switch, however, the portable experience can be somewhat compromised, due to the lack of precision of the controls, but nothing that can stop progress, since it is not a very challenging game. However, several issues hinder the experience: repetitiveness, the lack of creativity in level design, the lack of use of the proposed mechanics, among other things, such as the low level of challenges and the very short campaign.

Capcom Arcade Stadium is a must-see collection for retro game lovers - especially shooters and beat 'em ups fans - and for video game enthusiasts. Many may not be entirely satisfied with the result of the Japanese company's work, but they will certainly only realize it after several coins spent on Capcom's emulated machines.

How To Take Off Your Mask Remastered is a ok game, but unfortunately it falls short as a visual novel, especially in a narrative extremely poor in content and, above all, incomplete - in the end, we have only a simple and predictable novel entitled to two equally banal endings, which can be achieved with very few hours of gameplay.

In the end, Ghosts' n Goblins Resurrection faithfully reproduces its original experience, with excellent graphics, diverse mechanics, familiar enemies and a lot of nostalgia. This could be the starting point for the franchise's definitive resurrection, or just a last breath of life. Even trying to make the title more accessible to new players, the difficulty is still high. Novice players may struggle to adapt to the challenges, while the nostalgic ones will find the same challenging experience as 36 years ago.

Even more than the previous game, Code: Realize ~ Wintertide Miracles ~ is a work entirely dependent on its predecessors. For those who haven't played them yet, the title has little to offer. However, for those who already love the characters and would like to extend their time with Cardia and her boyfriends / friends, it's guaranteed fun.

SNK vs. Capcom: The Match of the Millennium is a great portable fighting game and easily one of the biggest highlights in the NeoGeo Pocket Color library. The title features elaborate systems (within the limitations of the original console), explored in agile battles full of combos and possibilities. In addition, the game overflows content with many characters, different combat styles and various minigames. The adaptation for Switch is competent and has some useful resources, but the presence of more options would make the experience better. In the ende, SNK vs. Capcom offers a fun retro experience, as well as being an interesting crossover.

Ultra Goodness 2 has charisma and is well executed, being a fun and bloody action game, despite the stages' sameness. The soundtrack becomes nauseating very quickly and the challenge is low, but the short duration of the title makes these negative points not stand out so much and leaves the fun more present in the memory.

Azur Lane: Crosswave is adamant about staying close to the mobile experience and pleasing this dedicated niche. It is not a blockbuster game and it doesn’t even intend to be, but it proposes dozens of light and fun hours. It is recommended for ecchi, harem or all-are-girls fans.

Bravely Default II is one of the best RPGs available on the Switch, featuring a combination of engaging and well-conducted narrative with solid gameplay full of interesting mechanics. The experience is even superior to its predecessors, which were already high-quality works of the genre. Both those who took advantage of Bravely Default and Bravely Second and players who did not venture into the Luxendarc journey should give this masterpiece a chance.

Balancelot is an unusual experiment of the side-scrolling platform genre based on a simple, creative and artistically inspired idea, but which unfortunately leaves a lot to be desired regarding the execution of its mechanics, graphics, physics and even with regard to its history . Anyway, the game can captivate for some time those who are interested in medieval art or experimental platform mechanics.
