It took us some real adjustment to accept Mario & Luigi: Brothership for what it is, but once you do, there’s genuine enjoyment to be found here. You have to learn to follow its pace and accept its shortcomings, because it won’t change its ways and blossom into a top-tier Mario RPG. Still, the ride will be worth it for some to experience its bright points.

Black Ops 6 is one of the most impressive disappointments in Call of Duty history. Despite the best gameplay in the series outside of the jetpack era, the general content from Zombies to multiplayer maps is downright terrible across the board, leading to the most mixed game yet.
Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered is a thrilling return to a cult classic, embracing its unique blend of campy horror and dark humor. If its goal was to revive interest in this wild journey, it has definitely succeeded.
Life is Strange: Double Exposure might not have the same emotional impact as the original title, but it's still a worthwhile journey you shouldn't pass up on.
Shin-chan: Shiro and the Coal Town is a slow life simulation game paired with an engaging adventure involving the mysterious Coal Town.
While its story and characters fall a little flat, Flowstone Saga makes up for it with its compelling blend of JRPG mechanics and falling block puzzle gameplay. The brisk pace make this an excellent choice for those seeking a lighter bite.
Slay the Princess: The Pristine Cut twists the traditional story of a hero rescuing a poor damsel in distress into an eerie horror experience that explores topics surrounding life and death, free will and the purpose of existence.
