Idea Factory’s attempt at creating a hack and slash leaves Arc of Alchemist as a middle of the road RPG with some charm and plenty of untapped potential.
While it could use more polish, the huge weapon arsenal and extensive customization options result in an incredibly fun mech shooter.
Strong combat dragged down by grind-heavy design, messy menus, and missing quality of life features.
A colorful and engaging Metroidvania game with a unique gameplay premise.
Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Encore may not offer too much of an upgrade for those that dove deep into the Wii U version but everyone else will find an entertaining story featuring a great combat system and excellent soundtrack.
Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot features flashy gorgeous combat and tells the most detailed version of the original storyline yet but a lifeless open world and useless RPG mechanics hold it back.
A unique indie game that is both relaxing and refreshing. Just like a real cup of coffee.
Enjoyable mech combat hobbled by poor mission design, unnecessary load screens, and a dull story
Easy to get into with a decent amount of challenge to the end. The most accessible railway sim I've played yet.
Steins;Gate: My Darling’s Embrace is a simpler experience that focuses on charm and comedy more than anything and delivers it in a way that fans of the series will appreciate.
Although the darker themes may throw fans, Steins;Gate 0 tells a grand tale that fans of the series will still enjoy immensely due to how well the characters and story as a whole are written.
A solid, family friendly action-RPG/sandbox hybrid that is perfect for those looking for a more guided, casual experience.
Lost Ember may have a predictable story but its emotional impact is still there and traveling a unique world as plenty of different animals sets it apart from others in the genre.
Whether a victim of poor design or poor planning, Everreach: Project Eden is a plain mess.
Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD provides glimpses of the greatness but these are few and far between in a game that struggles to find a solid difficulty curve and provide much else outside of the core 100 stages.
A well made ARPG from the Darksiders universe that's all about ripping through demons to make Hell a slightly safer place to live.
Shenmue III often feels antiquated but its charming presentation and nostalgic feeling will keep fans engaged, but let’s hope it won’t take nearly two decades until Ryo’s journey continues.
As with the previous game, there is still some room for improvement but Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts is a step in the right direction. A big step, if anything.
Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness and the Secret Hideout changes quite a few mechanics around for the better and its charming protagonist help a slow starting story pull together.
Pokemon Sword has the heart and core experience that fans have loved throughout the years but growing pains are clear as anemic side content, horrific online, and other issues show that Game Freak has some growing to do.
