FragPunk is a fresh addition to the hero shooter genre, combining familiar elements with innovative mechanics. The game offers fast-paced and entertaining gameplay that will appeal to both casual players and fans of competitive titles. The six-win-round format ensures you won’t be able to tear yourself away from the game. Before you know it, you’ll find yourself laughing and saying, “Just one more—it’ll only take a second.” And then another. And another… However, aggressive monetization and the need for further polish may deter some players.

Cataclismo isn’t just another game in the lineup; it’s a triumph of creative design and a love for the genre. It successfully combines the freedom and creativity of building with the tactical depth of real-time strategy and the suspense of tower defense games. For an RTS lover like me, it’s a dream come true to see someone take familiar mechanics and assemble them into something so original and fun. The game offers dozens of hours of fun in the campaign, endless replayability in survival mode, and complete freedom in creative mode. If you’re looking for a strategy game that rewards both your cleverness and your imagination, look no further.

Gordian Quest is a game of two sides. On the one hand, it features an absolutely brilliant, deep, and immensely entertaining tactical combat system with enormous character variety and replayability. On the other hand, it’s let down by a boring and generic story, a disastrous tutorial, and a frustrating spike in difficulty that forces you into a monotonous grind. It’s an RPG with deck-building elements, yet paradoxically, the RPG elements (story, world) are its weakest aspects. However, if you can get past the initial confusion and don’t mind repeating content, you’ll be rewarded with one of the best combat systems on the market.

Brotato is a masterpiece of elegant and focused game design. It takes a simple concept and layers an incredible amount of strategic depth and replayability onto it, all without losing its accessibility and charm. Every playthrough is different, every character is a unique challenge, and the feeling of a perfectly crafted build is indescribably satisfying. It’s pure, distilled fun in its purest form and an absolute must-play for any fan of action roguelikes. There’s just no added value here—nothing you haven’t experienced before. Sure, it’s potatoes, but seriously, don’t you sometimes just want to indulge in them?

The Necromancer's Tale is a game that isn’t afraid to go against the grain and offer an experience focused on the dark side of the human soul and the forbidden art of necromancy. Few games manage to portray the path of evil with such depth and conviction without resorting to cheap tricks or moral judgments. Here, you get the sense that being evil isn’t just an optional detour, but the true, main path. This title is primarily intended for those who appreciate a deep, well-crafted story, a complex system of choices with real consequences, and a willingness to immerse themselves in a dark fantasy atmosphere with a touch of historical realism. If you’re willing to overlook the fact that the combat system isn’t perfect and that the graphics aren’t at the cutting edge of technology, you’ll discover in *The Necromancer’s Tale* a gem that offers an unforgettable experience of descending into the snares of the deadly art and learning how a person becomes a necromancer. It is a story of power, revenge, knowledge, and inevitable madness—one that is well worth experiencing.

For PS VR2 owners, Hide the Corpse is a little gem that might not appeal to everyone, but fans of unconventional experiences shouldn’t miss it. It’s funny, crazy, and surprisingly entertaining. Of course, it’s still a smaller title that won’t keep you entertained for dozens of hours, but as a fun little game to spice up your VR gaming, it lives up to expectations.

All in all, Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree appears to be an engaging adventure that offers not only a challenge but also the reward of a rich world and deep relationships. It’s a game that isn’t afraid to experiment and brings a breath of fresh air to established genres. If you’re looking for a unique experience that combines action, strategy, story, and stunning visuals and sound, then you definitely shouldn’t miss this title. Raise your Tsurugi, prepare Kagura, and set out to save Shinju. The future of the village is in your hands.

Is it a total flop? Not really. Lost Soul Aside isn’t a bad game. It can entertain with fast-paced combat, impress with its audiovisuals, and delight with a few clever ideas. At the same time, however, it’s average in many respects, below average in places, and occasionally comes across as amateurish. Its appealing exterior can be misleading, because underneath it there are plenty of rough edges. At a time when quality hack-and-slash games are few and far between, this might be a stopgap option for fans of the genre. More discerning players, however, are in for a disappointment wrapped in pretty packaging. Lost Soul Aside looks great, but beneath the gloss there are plenty of rough edges. It’s not lacking in potential, but the execution is severely lacking.

Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma is an exceptional title even among today’s JRPGs and fantasy simulators. It’s a game that isn’t afraid to be slow-paced, symbolic, and emotionally profound, and that’s precisely why it touches the heart in ways that others only lightly scratch the surface. As a fan of Chinese historical culture, I see more in it than just aesthetic kitsch: it’s an attempt to build a genuine bridge between myth, meditation, and narrative. The game isn’t without its flaws, but its strengths outweigh its weaknesses. If you’re looking for a spiritual story, rhythmic gameplay, and cultural depth, this game offers more than you might expect. It’s a dance worth following.

Titan Quest II is currently a game with enormous potential, but also with enormous problems. The core gameplay is fantastic. It features satisfying combat, a beautiful world, and a clever skill-upgrade system. It perfectly captures the spirit of the original and introduces welcome innovations. However, all of this is buried under a pile of—what I believe are temporary—bugs, clunky game mechanics, and frustrating inventory management. Nevertheless, even now, considering it’s in Early Access, it’s a top-tier game, and if the developers don’t mess it up, I believe we’ll have an interesting contender for Game of the Year by the end of 2026.

Kong: Survivor Instinct is a solid Metroidvania that capitalizes on the atmosphere of a post-apocalyptic world and several well-designed gameplay mechanics. Unfortunately, it’s let down by an underdeveloped combat system, frustrating checkpointing, and a lack of truly memorable moments with the Titans. Kong, unfortunately, isn’t the king here—he’s more of a backdrop. Still, the game will find its fans, especially among those who enjoy exploration and an atmospheric experience without an overly fast pace.

No Sleep For Kaname Date – From AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES is an enticing addition to Kotaro Uchikoshi’s beloved universe. Although it’s a smaller, more focused title with a specific escape-room element, it seems to retain all the key ingredients that make the series so exceptional: a wild story, witty dialogue, charismatic characters, and clever puzzles. For fans of AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES, this title is practically a must-play. It offers another look at Date and Iris, expands the universe, and introduces a new mystery in the form of the Third Eye. For newcomers, it could serve as an interesting entry point into the world of AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES, as it offers a smaller, more focused experience that nonetheless fully showcases the unique style of Uchikoshi’s games.

Koira is a short interactive poem about friendship that leaves a lasting impression not so much through its gameplay as through its tenderness and visual poetry. It doesn’t dazzle with technical flourishes or a complex structure. Instead, it takes you on an adventurous journey that feels like an intoxicating meditation. The hand-drawn visuals, gentle music, and pure emotions come together in a harmonious whole that feels more like flipping through a children’s book than playing a video game.

In my humble opinion, Bing in Wonderland is a triumph of focused and minimalist design. In an oversaturated genre, it feels like a breath of fresh air for anyone tired of over-the-top and time-consuming titles. Its strength lies in its simplicity, unique style, addictive gameplay, and surprisingly deep meta progression. Although some systems could use a bit more polish, it’s a fantastic and charming game that deserves your attention.

Immortals of Aveum is an FPS built on modern genre mechanics, popularized primarily by Doom: Eternal. It features fast-paced and sometimes challenging action in virtual arenas, set against a fairy-tale fantasy backdrop full of magic. If this kind of setting appeals to you, give it a try. At launch, the game had technical issues, most of which have since been fixed, and it currently looks quite presentable. The storytelling is in the style of a typical, naive, epic-scale blockbuster. It’s verbose, long-winded, and features dreadful, grandiose music.

Injustice: Gods Among Us is an imaginative game that suffers from a poorly executed design. The game aims for a darker tone, but this is overshadowed by an excess of action and a monotonous combat system. Still, it delights with an opulent selection of game modes that can keep players entertained for a while. Overall, however, it’s a case of wasted potential that some DC Comics fans won’t look back on fondly.

The world of Hollow Knight has been given a fresh new look and is ready to offer you a fantastic gaming experience as well as a healthy dose of nostalgia for Hollow Knight. In many ways, Hollow Knight: Silksong surpasses its predecessor, but you should be prepared for a high level of difficulty and the fact that, even in Silksong, no one will be holding your hand. Does the game deserve the attention it’s getting? Absolutely. So dive into Hornet’s story without hesitation—you won’t be disappointed.

Phantom Abyss is built on a brilliant and original concept, which is unfortunately brought to its knees by a half-baked execution. The adrenaline-fueled experience of exploring temples alongside the spirits of other players is often marred by technical issues and repetitive design. For a title that was in development for so long, the final product feels surprisingly unfinished and clunky. Somewhere deep inside lies a gem, but it’s buried under too many layers of problems and wasted potential.

Wild Hearts S is a great game trapped in a mediocre port. It offers unique gameplay mechanics, stylization, and a genuine challenge—something that’s no longer a given in today’s world of hunting games. On the other hand, the technical shortcomings on the Switch 2 spoil the experience, and the lack of cross-play functionality undermines the game’s multiplayer potential. The only advantage of the Switch 2 version is that you can play the game on the go or away from home. In all other cases, I’d rather go for the other versions.

TRON: Catalyst is a comeback worth celebrating. It offers stylish action in a world that fans of the series love, while also introducing enough innovations to appeal to new players as well. Despite minor shortcomings in the side activities and a limited RPG system, it’s a solid action experience that’s entertaining from start to finish. If you love TRON or are looking for an action game with exceptional visual style, you shouldn’t miss Catalyst.
