Dying Light 2: Stay Human delivers almost the same gameplay experience with few but welcome additions. The plot is the highlight of the new title in the franchise, delivering an interesting story and well-developed secondary characters. The game encourages exploration at night, when the most powerful enemies are on the loose, but guaranteeing the best rewards. Dying Light 2 should be enjoyed calmly, exploring every corner to ensure your survival in the zombie apocalypse. The wait for fans and the curious, who can enjoy the game even without having played the predecessor, was certainly worth it for the expansion of the world of Dying Light.

Please, Touch the Artwork is like visiting an interactive art gallery. The three minigames are simple but captivating thanks to their charming audiovisual elements. The puzzles, especially those in The Style, gain complexity layers little by little, making them very interesting. However, some puzzles are complicated enough to be frustrating, going against its general relaxing nature. In the end, the game offers a unique short experience, even though it isn't particularly memorable.

Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Extraction is an excellent FPS, combining a well established universe with a new and bold concept, focusing on stealth and teamwork. The fact missions offer high risks and rewards is addicting and so is getting your agents stronger with each new match. If not for a few small issues and the relatively simple production values, this game could have been one of the best shooters from the last few years. Nonetheless, this is a must-play for your game library.

Shadow Man Remastered is a curious and interesting work from an important age in games filled with big titles. It was close to being one of them and, as any classic, should be played. However, the way this remaster was done can please only those who already loved it, maybe not even them.

Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is a port with deleterious issues on several levels. And its narrative restructuring, while better developing some main characters, also follows new directions that leave “fleas behind the ears”, in addition to introducing new characters and some unpublished scenes of little use. However, the balance is much more positive. This RPG is a must for fans of the franchise and the genre in general, and is also recommended, with reservations, for those who are fans of the PlayStation original in particular.

For those who like puzzles, Wytchwood offers several opportunities to face challenges before advancing on the map. The game does not have an open world, but it guarantees vast scenarios to be explored and unlocked as the player conquers new skills and finds new resources. If you want to play something that challenges you in a fun and not frustrating way, I recommend jumping into this adventure with fantastic beings, unique characters full of side quests to offer and discoveries about the mystery behind the sleeping girl.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel can indeed be considered a good card game. Beautiful visuals, intuitive gameplay, good amount of content and resources to get you started. Unfortunately, there are two serious downsides. First, the game is relatively slow, especially during online matches; second, the matchmaking system is pretty bad and makes competitive play a pain, especially for less experienced players.

Nobody Saves the World is a creative and over-the-top interpretation of action RPGs. The biggest highlight is the variety of bizarre transformations with different abilities and characteristics, and the customization options open up several possibilities when facing the challenges. In addition, the vibrant, humorous and content-filled world encourages us to constantly experiment. Even so, some details are problematic, such as the uncreative dungeons, superficiality of some combats and the moments of repetition. However, the charismatic and colorful atmosphere, together with the agile mechanics, mitigate the problems. In the end, Nobody Saves the World is a light and fun experience.

Living up to its name, Monster Hunter Rise elevates the long-lived Capcom franchise to new heights. Though its fundaments didn't suffer drastic alterations when compared to previous titles in the genre, the new additions such as Wirebugs and the Palamutes make it the fastest and most enjoyable Monster Hunter so far. The adaptation to PCs only further highlights the general quality of one of the best RPGs of the last few years. A must-have.

Blade Assault is a competent and exciting 2D action adventure to some extent. The biggest highlight is the fast-paced combat, and different weapons and elemental powers help bring variety to the stages. Also, the atmosphere is pleasant with great sci-fi pixel art visuals. However, after a few runs the various issues become apparent, such as limited content diversity, unregulated difficulty and technical issues. In the end, Blade Assault even has a good base and is fun, but there is a feeling that many of its features needed to be better developed.

Demoniaca: Everlasting Night has good ideas in a genre that's already solid but fails to make them work in a way that contributes positively to the experience. The theme is cool, the story is a good headstart but the way is filled with slip-ups on gameplay, visual effects and lacking mechanics, points that would be necessary for it to really leave a lasting impression. It's a game that could have been very good but doesn't hit the mark.

Dimension Tripper Neptune: TOP NEP is a vibrant rail shooter that manages to be a good entry point in the genre. Even with low difficulty and little incentive to play again besides the scoring system, the title is competent in what it proposes and a beautiful addition to the Gamindustri universe.

Nerf Legends colossally fails as a product, game, or anything else it tried to be. It can't even be enjoyable or dumb enough to at least be funny. It wouldn't even be worth it if it was free to play. And if it was, maybe it had a chance because of the multiplayer. It's even a bad advertising for a cool toy that exists in the real world.

God of War is one of the best games of all time, and one of the few that I would rate as essential for any gamer. The impeccable PC adaptation makes this the definitive version of this modern classic and the perfect appetizer for a certain Ragnarök that is approaching this year. Unmissable.

Windjammers 2 is a perfect sequel. While honoring its origins, it renews and revitalizes an arcade experience that remains extremely fun, competitive, and exciting. Another excellent job by Dotemu in rescuing a game we didn't know we needed so much.

Halo Infinite is a fun and accessible shooter, which introduces new concepts while rescuing the best traditions of the series, bringing an exciting script, focused on the Master Chief and his relationship with his new and friendly companion, Arma. This is, without a doubt, the best Halo made by 343, both in terms of gameplay, visuals, mechanics and plot, and one of the most fun of the entire saga, being a definite recommendation for enthusiasts of futuristic shooters.

We have here a mixture that curiously works where it really needs it. It's an RPG adventure with charisma and a fun golf game. The use of mechanics and peculiarities of each genre complement each other in a way that makes RPGolf Legends an authentic “action RPGolf”.

In My Shadow is a platform puzzle with a good premise, interesting mechanics, but it's not that fun in practice. The idea of manipulating objects to use their shadows on multiple planes is fantastic, but the puzzles end up requiring a lot of trial and error, which becomes tedious and frustrating. It has an emotional backstory, but it hasn't been explored very well, leaving many questions unanswered.

Black Widow: Recharged follows the primer of the trio revitalized by Atari, both in terms of quality and defects. Game repetitiveness is unavoidable even playing in pairs, and this is enhanced with the duplicated challenges. However, it is also necessary to point out that it has the best gameplay of the three, thanks to the use of analogue sticks, which makes it stand out from the rest.

Despite the regrets, Serious Sam 4 is indeed a good FPS. Not only does it feature important and classic elements of its series, including action-packed gunfights and plenty of enemies to fight, but it also has extras like co-op mode and interesting dialogue. Unfortunately, these qualities are heavily undermined by poor performance, poorly planned combat stages and bad animations. At the end, is the recommendation for fans of the franchise and lovers of the genre.
