Outriders tend to suffer at some points, as well as other cases of games that have mirrored established franchises. The game manages to be successful in taking references and using them to follow its own path. Its frantic gameplay, the protagonist's distinctive charisma, the absence of microtransactions and a robust and complete story, unlike other games that tend to divide the content, help to balance these points, making the experience promising and attractive for veterans and beginners who seek a friendly gateway to the genre.

All implementations made in the general composition of Poison Control were hampered due to a low technical efficiency in the execution, resulting in a product beyond mediocre. From a certain point of view, it is certainly a unique game, but that is not enough to make it minimally good.

Magic: The Gathering Arena fulfills the old dream of playing wherever you want, with decks designed by yourself, anytime and anywhere. With some gameplay and stability issues, it is far from perfect, but it does its job well in bringing all the richness and complexity of big screens to small screens.

Say No! More explores a curious concept in an experience full of humor. It's really fun to say “No!” for the countless absurd requests from coworkers, mainly because of the intense consequences: the word is able to break objects and make people fly through the air. The plot captivates with exaggerated scenes and comical characters, exploring important themes with lightness. The downside is in the game mechanics, which are extremely simple. In the end, Say No! More is a good and brief way to get out and have fun.

Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue is an expensive package (priced above the 1.5 + 2.5 collection) and difficult to recommend to anyone who hasn't plunged into the franchise. For fans who haven't had the opportunity to play it yet, there is a small, yet interesting, exclusive content to explore. Unfortunately, the PC version specifically has few graphical configuration options, weakening the appeal of having access to this version.

It Takes Two ends up playing a very important role nowadays, mainly because of what the world is going through: reestablishing the approximation, unity and cooperativeness between family and friends, even if from a distance.

The game is still very accessible with its basic mechanics and low difficulty, so that people of any age and "gamer level" can enjoy with their loved ones.

Although I found the daily game time to be very short, I recognize that it is precisely because of this concept that Cozy Grove can be a good choice for those who do not have time to engage in complex and long games. The progression is gentle: it's possible to advance the campaign without having to spend many hours on the island. In the end, this game is recommended for those looking for something to relax their minds.

Paradise Lost is sustained by a contemplative atmosphere and a deeply human narrative, as its generic, repetitive and challenge-free gameplay should keep a large part of the audience away. Loaded with nuances, the title is a moving historical tale about the horrors of war, as well as the faces of mourning and loneliness, suitable only for those who are not interested in pushing buttons excessively or breaking their heads to solve puzzles.

Balan Wonderworld is a visually beautiful adventure that even tries to have a captivating story. However, its flaws stand out and make it a very uninteresting game. Not even Yuji Naka's name can bring anything striking to this title, which is a shame.

El Hijo - The Wild West Tale attends well to everything it proposes with its experience without violence. It is light and challenging enough for casual players who are not used to the stealth genre, and that can leave the most demanding a little frustrated, but not dissatisfied. The Wild West is never out of style, but here the stealth could be a little more daring.

Doom Eternal: The Ancient Gods - Part Two brought the last chapter of the reboot started in 2016. With new worlds, events and, especially, enemies and sharp challenges, we have a DLC that maintains the high quality. Although some points were not that good, the final result is great and concludes the Slayer saga in a satisfactory way.

Neptunia Virtual Stars is not a bad game. Thanks to the light narrative, fans of the series will find here an opportunity to quell the longing for Neptune and his gang, who remain as charismatic as ever. However, the difference in gameplay between the protagonists ends up causing an imbalance that should not be ignored, and the very inclusion of VTubers seems shallow when looking at the product as a whole. Therefore, it is necessary to keep expectations in check; that way, walking around the planet Emote and flirting with the idol career will probably be much more enjoyable.

DARQ: Complete Edition is one of those titles that comes in the right measure in almost every way: a very good level of challenge, satisfactory duration, simple gameplay and an inviting art to attract anyone's attention. There is only a slight caveat about the difficulty for those who prefer a more elaborate mental challenge, as the game does not have any tasks that I can call formidable, or a difficulty setting that encourages playing it again.
