The task was difficult, but Vampire Crawlers: The Turbo Wildcard from Vampire Survivors managed to deliver another fun, challenging, and addictive experience. The game competently combines the roguelike and deck-builder genres, with many interesting gameplay mechanics to face all types of enemies. I'm hoping for more content in future updates, especially in the form of DLCs, so that the title becomes even bigger and better.

Gecko Gods is an enjoyable open-world exploration adventure. The central gameplay element is free climbing: on the role of a gecko, we can walk across all solid surfaces and solve puzzles that allow us to progress through the campaign. However, the general simplicity ends up with an air of superficiality and leaves one wishing that certain aspects were better in-depth, such as the world's story, the variety of environments, and the level design challenges.

Excellence in gameplay, meticulous care in visuals and strong bonds of friendship in emotional core build up a masterpiece of an adventure. Pacing is tight and the metroidvania elements are well placed, but it's the construction of a found family that really sells the whole package. Moomintroll: Winter's Warmth will warm even an ice cold heart.

Sol Cesto presents a creative concept, with a probability-based system that generates tense decisions and interesting moments. Its dark atmosphere, striking visuals, and distinctive mechanics help build a unique identity, even if the execution doesn’t fully explore the potential of these ideas. In the end, the experience is more likely to appeal to those who enjoy taking risks and don’t mind repetition or the strong influence of chance. On the other hand, those looking for something more elaborate, with greater strategic control and consistent variety, may find reasons to be disappointed.

espite some pacing issues and excessive repetition, YunYun Syndrome: Rhythm Psychosis is an incredibly fun experience with a full self-awareness of the slightly deeper layers of the otaku sphere it both represents and engages with.

Despite the lack of optimization and official Brazilian Portuguese localization, and the fact that the game feels like it should have been released in Early Access, we must acknowledge — just as the studio admitted its mistakes — that they are being quick with fixes and actively listening to community feedback.

Ariana and the Elder Codex stands out through its art direction and a deep magic system, featuring boss battles that truly test a player's strategy. However, the title requires patience to deal with occasionally stiff movement, an excess of dialogue, and an exploration structure that becomes repetitive. For those seeking an action game with a unique visual style and solid customization mechanics, the overall experience is positive, provided you are willing to endure moments of repetition and monotony.

Neve operates in a reduced space and knows very well how to utilise every inch of it. It makes one dream: what could such a talented team make with more resources? With luck (and, hopefully, help from the specialised press over here), this will be the proof of concept that shows the potential of great Brazilian professionals to the wider industry. Those who like narrative adventures cannot miss this game.

Kumitantei: Old-School Slaughter - Episode 1 brings renewed interest to the death game formula, between more openly questioning the meritocratic philosophy of the Danganronpa world and boasting a cohesive cast, very well-positioned for chaos (or apathy, as their captors would have it). This is a project worth following to its eventual conclusion.

Starfield is an RPG that grows over time, demanding patience in its opening hours but rewarding those who stay with an experience rich in systems, side stories, and freedom of identity. Despite the friction of constant menus and some uninspiring environments, it remains a compelling journey; when everything aligns, the game delivers the genuine feeling of living your own odyssey amidst the vastness of space.

Kingdom’s Return: Time-Eating Fruit and the Ancient Monster delivers a competent action RPG with good gameplay and four unique heroes to play, each with specific moves and abilities. All this in a beautiful pixel art world. However, these qualities don't support an uninteresting narrative, repetitive tasks that quickly become monotonous, and a lack of personality in the champions that makes them uninteresting and uncharismatic.

Saint Slayer: Spear of Sacrilege admirably fulfills its purpose: to be an honest and well-executed homage to the games that shaped a generation. The title doesn't try to disguise its influences, and we could even say that this is one of its merits. For veterans, it's a welcome return to a time when games demanded patience, attention, and respect. For newcomers, it's a valuable—and sometimes brutal—invitation to understand why this generation speaks of that era with such nostalgia.

Tides of Tomorrow stands out by betting on an ambitious and innovative idea, transforming individual choices into a shared experience between players. Despite imbalances in how these decisions impact one's own journey and the frustrating lack of post-game tools like New Game+, the title sustains its premise with a striking world, well-built characters, and an intelligent integration between narrative and mechanics, making this a memorable chapter within the genre.

Final Sentence is, without a doubt, the coolest and most unique experience I've had in 2026. It still needs improvements, but those are mostly related to the large number of bots in matches more than anything else.

PowerWash Simulator 2 - Adventure Time Pack has already shown that paid expansions will maintain the same pace as the previous game. While it's interesting to explore locations from beloved franchises in a unique way, following their distinctive style, it's time for more substantial content that truly respects the premise of the base game being bigger and better.

Find My Frogs is solely focused on being a lighthearted pastime, and it fulfills this role with unique competence and beauty. It's just a shame that its duration is so short, because it certainly has the potential for expansions or even sequels, given its cozy and lighthearted style.

Regions of Ruin: Runegate delivers a solid premise by combining strategic combat with the satisfaction of watching a base grow. The game stands out for the freedom it grants players to explore at their own pace and the depth of its skill tree, which allows for interesting character customization. On the other hand, it requires patience to overcome technical and combat design flaws that often interfere with the experience. Overall, it is a competent RPG that rewards the effort of those who decide to master its mechanics.

Without resorting solely to superficial mythological elements, Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss does a decent job of structuring its experience around investigative gameplay while also exploring the thematic dichotomy between a logical approach to often illogical cosmic events. While this may not be particularly original within the genre, finding such a consistent execution is still far from common.

OPUS: Prism Peak is a cozy and addictive adventure that creatively uses photography to tell the story of Eugene and Ren. The implementation of its mechanics to guide players through environments and interpret events is impeccable, further elevated by stunning landscape design. Unfortunately, the lack of Portuguese localization creates a significant barrier for those without a strong command of the language. However, for those who can overcome this, it is a highly recommended and moving narrative experience.
