A gift from Akira Toriyama, bringing back childhood memories. The original story depicting events after the original work is pretty enjoyable to watch. However, the overall monotonous core gameplay is somewhat disappointing.

A lack of horror behind the captivating puzzle adventure. While exploring the Derceto Manor is consistently enjoyable, it is really hard to catch the sense of fear which is crucial to a horror game. Still, it might serve as a nostalgic journey for those who remeber the original.

The remarkable visuals, which have been the primary factor contributing to the success of the Avatar series, are also evident in the game. However, the game's visibility is among the lowest, and the overall gaming system doesn't appear to be particularly outstanding. The potential is high, but it doesn't seem to deliver the expected level of performance.

The franchise's next installment arrives at a crucial point where it needs to pave a new path after the myth-based trilogy. While it successfully combines various systems from its predecessors, somehow the game seems remained at an ordinary level as its lack of new, interesting experiences.

An unconventional rhythm game that stands out from the ordinary. In 'Trombone Champ,' where you can discover hidden content by collecting various tokens through your performance. While it may become monotonous with its simple repetitive gameplay, it becomes twice as enjoyable when played with friends.

While Bloober Team has achieved immersive visual enhancements through Unreal Engine 5, the game itself did not deviate from the original 'Layers of Fear' series. If you cannot be satisfied with enjoying the game's expanded madness within a single title, it will simply feel more like a definitive edition.

A Rogue-like game that gives the sensation of shooting powerful bullets. The fast-paced gameplay provides a great experience when played on handheld consoles, but the overall playtime is unfortunately short.

Are you looking for a fantasy life with beautiful scenery and deep stories? 'Harvestella' can be one of your choices only if you are okay with suffering from terrible management system for stamina and time. While the combat system is okay at least, overall motion is somewhat awkward. Also, Insufficient convenience features are enough to make you think the game has a pretty big room for improvement.

The of Lego Bricktales is solid and simple. It is that you can feel the joy of assembling Lego by playing a videogame. Also, it is highly immersive! However, even though it is a game that requires assembly, there are many aspects that are lacking in terms of convenience and controls.

The attempt of adopting the element of a real-time tactical battle into a strategic RPG was good. While attractive characters and main stories are its strength, the narrative and approach to lead the story seem to fail to reveal its charm. More to that, individuality of the game's battle is faded due to systematic limits and there are few strategic elements. Despite these problems, you will be able to enjoy it if it suits your taste.

Rollerdrome is an action game smartly mixed rollerskating and shooting. While the fast, exciting action and retro style musics are impressive, relatively scarce volumes and cartoon rendered visuals can be divided into likes and dislikes.

The atmospheric pixel based visuals with dark fantasy vibe are pleasing to the eyes. And the challenging boss battle represents the unique tension of Souls-like. However, the balance of weapon upgrade system and the overall tension of the game collapse simultaneously after the second half of the game.

A simulator that delivers pure joy of cleaning by removing all inconveniences of water pressure cleaning in real life. Though it can be a boring chore for some people, but there are some people out there including myself whose being healed by this beautiful and quiet cleaning missions.

It is hard to believe that Suhoshin, a game with extreme details around Korean culture and history have been made by French developers. The game's attempt to share historical information alongside the main story feels natural, far from forcefully explaining everything. Though the core game play itself is a typical visual novel, the game is well deserved for its polished work and rare attempts.

The game succeed Diablo franchise's core mechanics such as grinding, the pleasure of looting items. The build structure using legendary equipment in the early to mid-game also immersive. However, the fun of growing your character is halved as soon as the way to strengthen it becomes to upgrading legendary gems. Moreover, the in-game payment system seems to failed to provide sufficient satisfaction compared to what have been invested.

It seems they successfully caught the nostalgic feelings of retro film cameras. A storytelling mechanic based on showing rather than telling is also interesting if it suits your taste. However, some minor errors with PC version need to be fixed in hurry and a few incorrect Korean translations are also affecting the core gameplay.

Puzzle element infused in action rogue-like genre stimulates the interest in many ways. The level design built on the core system such as manipulating Tetris-like scaffolds was also okay. However, the game gets dull pretty quick except for the puzzles because the only differentiator is just stepping stones.

Trek to Yomi's excellent visual quality and sound production are enough for you to recall classic black-and-white film. But maybe they put too much effort into the visual side. Gameplay itself feels so plain and simple. The fast-paced combats are interesting in itself but barely changes. And the collectables are not attractive enough.

It's a 'remake' of the 4th generation Pokémon games - often called the masterpiece of the series. But I think this is more of a 'remaster'. Although graphics and convenience functions were improved, many of problems from the original were intactly ported rather than fixed. Besides, it is a full-price title. I doubt that the developers really loves Pokémon. It was an important moment to build up Pokémon franchise's era to new heights again, but this work was released as a spin-off which even fans of the franchise are hard to like. It's a shame.
