Neon White is a game that manages to handle speed and action as pieces of an addicting puzzle. Though this might be a little inconvenient for people looking for a casual experience, learning the best possible course of action offers a great feeling of reward to the player. For people who love spending hours gradually improving their time in platformer stages, this is a highly recommended game.

Yurukill: The Calumniation Games is an atypical genre combination. On one side, the escape the room is a brainy, logical genre focused on puzzle resolution. On the other, the shoot'em up is based on frantic combat and quick reflexes. Despite how hard it is to mix those two styles, the development team managed to present a unique experience that offers a great entry point for both genres. Especially for players interested in the narratives of Japanese animation and other pop works, it's worth checking out.

Bright Memory: Infinite looks like a high quality demo. The qualities are there: visuals, gameplay, variety of mechanics, fun and challenge. The problem is that it lacks content, either through a more robust and well-explained campaign, or through secondary game modes.

Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium is a very competent collection, which maintains the rhythm of its predecessor and even manages to be more interesting and varied. The individual purchase model may even make us think that it could be more practical just to add new titles to the first game, but even so, the idea of bringing together so many important and even unknown names remains always ideal to kill the nostalgia of the nostalgic and present to the newbies.

Krut: The Mythic Wings presents a strong example of lazy level design, poor gameplay and questionable quality. It is difficult to point out positive things amid so much that shows that this is a low quality product.

TombStar focuses on the basics to create a reasonable action roguelike adventure. The biggest highlight is the firefights, which have intense moments and a good challenge. Also, the introduction of new features is constant because of a lot of unlockable content. However, the game lacks personality, variety of situations and unique mechanics, which makes the runs repetitive over time. In the end, TombStar is fun, but not very memorable.

OMORI is accessible, has creativity and depth in its narrative design, illustrations with personality and charisma, and a sensitive and well-written cast of characters that brings to life one of the most memorable groups in indie RPGs. The title is recommended for psychological horror lovers with sensitive themes, RPG retrogamers and mother-like fans.

DNF Duel is a good fighting game, but nothing more. It has beautiful animations between fights and a very rich universe to use to its advantage. Besides that, the gameplay makes combatants use their creativity to the fullest in combos. But still, it seems that all the meticulousness of the mechanics has not been extended to the game modes and all the rest of the experience that a fighting game can give its fans.

After more than a decade without games, Klonoa is back in good shape. The new collection isn't a perfect package, but both titles offer a lot of fun. For anyone who is a fan of the franchise or wants to know these charismatic 2.5D platform games in a modern edition, Klonoa: Phantasy Reverie Series is a great choice.

Rune Factory 5 is another good addition to the franchise that mixes farm life simulator with RPG and is very worthwhile especially for fans of the series. The expectation is that the next games will be able to go beyond what was presented here in all aspects.

Of Bird and Cage presents a very interesting premise that mixes a movie, a metal concert and a game. Unfortunately, it fails to execute this idea, with poorly polished graphics and gameplay and a poor story. The soundtrack is neat and there is a great effort by the developer in this aspect, but it is not enough to sustain the title. It's worth a conceptual experience, but as entertainment, it leaves something to be desired.

F1 22 remains a benchmark in the racing simulation genre with a true-to-life experience of the weather, driving and adrenaline of the motorsport elite. Despite bringing more updates than innovations, it is still a great recommendation for anyone who is a fan of car racing, especially Formula 1. The game does not disappoint in relation to previous years' editions, but it runs the risk of being outdated in 2023 if it doesn't bring something that makes the player more engaged.

Sonic Origins is a good collection, with a very well implemented job of changing the look of games to something current without leaving them stretched. Still, this mania of always focusing on the same Sonic games in different collections, given that he has a vast list of interesting titles, is starting to get more and more worn out.

AI: The Somnium Files: NirvanA Initiative is a respectable sequel, capable of being enjoyed by those who haven't played the first title and highly recommended for science fiction or detective story enthusiasts, fans of Japanese animation or for those who appreciate all these themes at the same time.

Little Noah: Scion of Paradise is a charismatic roguelite with unique ideas. The combat is enticing with its fast-paced action and the system that allows players to combine attacks and spells for combos — a part of the fun is exploring the various possibilities and combinations. Besides that, there are many options to unlock and its colorful atmosphere exudes charisma. The simplicity of the concepts makes it clear that the experience is more casual, though there are options for players who are fond of more intense challenges. Even so, some issues get in the way on the long run, such as its basic level design and limited content variety. The expectation is that these negative points are fixed in the future. Overall, Little Noah: Scion of Paradise is a light and fun experience. It's nothing as elaborate as other roguelites but it executes well everything it sets out to do.

Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak succeeds in its mission and justifies its existence as a paid expansion through fun monsters, difficult hunts, new biomes and lots of content to explore alone or in multiplayer. Initial progression issues aside, Sunbreak complements what was already great, extending the lifespan of one of those rare games, which in its complexity and abundance of features are capable of holding audiences for years.
