Vendetta Forever shows that anyone can be a bad action hero. It is an action game with sixty missions that remains fun for a long time, as long as you do it in short sessions. It is a shame that the game can often be frustratingly difficult and the lesser finishing in certain areas can sometimes cause confusion. The game will not win any Oscars, but that is often not the case with action films.

After more than 8 hours and the 5 chapters behind me, with a relatively satisfying and interesting ending, it is clear that the story is well put together. It becomes a bit more 'mystical' and 'woolly' from chapter 4 and then you also fly to the end, but in the end I could look back on my experience with reasonable satisfaction. It is a pity that the locations are so much of the same and that the conversations sometimes have to be digested very slowly. The main character, Max, also comes across as a bit boring and too sweet and could have had a bit more experience. Her soft voice is therefore not convincing enough. The extra clothing that you can apply to your character also feels very unnecessary, just like the social media and messages that you can follow on your mobile. Life is Strange: Double Exposure is however a fine game if you like an entertaining story and do not have too high expectations in terms of gameplay.

All in all, Shin Chan: Shiro and the Coal Town is a cool combination of relaxation and collecting various items. The game looks super cool. With strong characters, fun side missions and a new large area, this successor not only knows how to entertain, but also lets you relax. Despite the fact that the story lacks some depth here and there, it is a game with a lot of charm. It knows how to translate the adventures of the cheeky Shin Chan in a great way into a cool game.

Wilmot Works It Out is a creative sequel to Wilmot's Warehouse. It takes the soothing feeling of sliding blocks and gives it a creative twist to create something new. The perfect controls from the first game are directly carried over here and work even better. The different paintings that you have to puzzle together each time are creative, original and cleverly resemble each other, which provides just the right amount of challenge each time. This makes Wilmot Works It Out a nice addition to the Wilmot series and hopefully even more players will discover the simple but cool adventures of the square block Wilmot.

Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven is a classic that has its pros and cons. You can completely customize the game with all the options and gameplay features, but the game is quite lacking in terms of quality. Graphically, the game looks very dated and in terms of user interface it is quite a mess. For fans of many RPG elements who want a lot of content for their money and demand more than enough possibilities, this will be a game to their heart's content. In addition, the game starts very slowly in the first hours, so you really have to bite through the sour until the goodies appear. Due to the mixed feelings, it is difficult to fully assess the game's value, as we previously read in our preview . It is clear that we remain somewhere in between in our judgment and given the pluses and minuses.

Hidden in my Paradise has all the makings of a charming, relaxing experience on the surface, but its small levels and frustrating controls make it hard to enjoy. While the game offers some neat ideas, like decorating worlds and sharing levels with other players, it fails to execute these ideas well. For fans of hidden object games, the Hidden Through Time series is a much more appealing option, with larger, more challenging levels and more polished gameplay. If you’re looking for a relaxing treasure hunt without a lot of repetition, this is a better place to start.

The Silent Hill 2 Remake is an impressive upgrade of the 2001 original. For new players, this is the perfect opportunity to experience one of the best horror games ever in a modern guise. For fans of the original, it offers a beautiful, nostalgic journey back to the terrifying town that has previously scared the living daylights out of them. Despite the fact that modernizing the gameplay sometimes comes at the expense of the horror aspect, this remains one of the most exciting games you can play. Especially the moments when you walk through dark rooms with the most horrible background sounds stay with you for a long time. It will be a while before I dare to walk through a dark house with a flashlight again in any case. Bloober Team has managed to retain the story, the atmosphere and the psychological depth to a very large extent, which means that Silent Hill 2, even after 23 years, still stands as a very scary house.

Just Dance 2025 is without a doubt the best version in the series so far. With every update the game gets more and more content and possibilities. The addition of the phone camera as a controller, all songs in one game, and the expansion of Just Dance+ to more than 300 songs makes this the most complete dance experience. With 40 new ones it is a party for both new and loyal fans. The 2025 edition is the version with the least number of new options. You really buy this version for the new songs. If this is the first time you come into contact with the Just Dance series, then this is the version to see if the series is something for you.

Building on the strong foundation the developers laid with Gris, Neva once again impresses with an emotionally charged story, beautiful visual presentation, and a captivating soundtrack. The game combines challenging platforming with simple yet satisfying puzzles and combat, all centered around the partnership between Alba and her growing wolf. While the pace could have been a little quicker for some players, the breathtaking art style makes every moment feel like a living painting. The few drawbacks, such as the repetitive death sounds and occasionally frustrating save points, do little to detract from the overall picture. Neva is a beautifully crafted game that not only challenges your skill as a player, but also touches your emotions. It is an interactive art experience that shows how powerful the medium can be, both in terms of gameplay and storytelling.

It's great to see that Blizzard has managed to win back the fans in the past few seasons and is taking the next step in the right direction with Vessel of Hatred. Whether you quickly stopped playing Diablo IV because there was too little to do or you are simply ready for new content, with Vessel of Hatred you will get an excellent expansion. If Blizzard can maintain this upward trend and quickly add new raids, the future of Diablo looks very bright.

The Plucky Squire might just be the cutest game of the year. Maybe a little too cute, because everything is done to be as accessible as possible. The puzzles never get too difficult and battles remain simple in execution. You can even skip the mini-games completely if they are too difficult for you. Oddly enough, that doesn't make The Plucky Squire any less. It's not brilliant, but above all just very fun and just long enough to end on a high note.

Until Dawn is a pleasure to play again, even after all those years that I played the game before. It feels fairly new again in that respect. However, it must be emphasized that the game is finished after about 6 hours. Yes, you can play the game again with different choices and get a different course, but it still feels annoying to have to go through certain scenarios that are quite static and less dynamic. I doubt that you will play the game three times or more. However, you have to pay a full amount of money for that. However, Until Dawn is graphically the best movie game we have seen so far and it is clear that they largely started again on the Unreal Engine 5. It stutters a bit every now and then towards 25 fps, but with the much improved graphics, all the DualSense and UI improvements, Until Dawn feels like a new person.

GreedFall II is a pretty nice game in terms of concept. It all means well, but the game is not quite there in terms of execution, sometimes even far from it. Audiovisually it is quite weak and in terms of gameplay it all feels quite mediocre. It is clear that the ambitions were greater than the result. If you had exaggerated a little less with the inventory system, the dialogue system and all those other RPG elements and had focused a little more on the gameplay and quality, the game would have been a little more accessible and it would have looked a little more professional. Unfortunately, this did not result in the result that every RPG lover had hoped for. The intention was good, in terms of content you have mountains of possibilities and quests, but the result is unfortunately a reasonable disappointment.

When it comes to presentation, Looney Tunes: Wacky World of Sports does almost everything right. The game just looks great and also looks cheerful and nicely chaotic. When it comes to gameplay and especially content, it is a bit less impressive. The game modes are too sparsely developed, which means that everything comes down to the same thing. The four sports all play well and I actually don't have a single sport of which I say: No, there's nothing to it. In fact, that is not possible because the tournaments offer all four sports. The challenge mode then offers extra mini-games, but unfortunately they could not keep me glued to the TV. The old animated series could. However, I was able to entertain myself with the game for a few hours and I certainly do not want to advise against the game, although you do have to be a reasonable fan or try to appeal to a young audience who wants to buy this game. Only then will this game undoubtedly be worth buying.

The game Metal: Hellsinger VR should have been my next favorite title on the PSVR2. Shooting demons to the beat of hard metal should be super cool, but the result is very mediocre. Visually, the PSVR2 has had to give in the most compared to the PC and Meta version. The game also contains only a small number of levels, which means you can finish the game in a few hours. The levels and weapons are not really inspiring to play each level multiple times. You really notice here that the game did not start out as a VR title, the weapons and interactions do not work well at all. Visually, this is also one of the lesser games I have played lately. It sounded so good, but the execution of Metal: Hellsinger VR could really use some autotune.

Sugar Mess – Let's Play Jolly Battle VR is a snack you would like to enjoy, but the result leaves a bad taste in your mouth. The visual presentation in the menu gives you the feeling that you can expect a lot of beautiful things, but every mini-game is extremely disappointing. The weapons do not feel good, the enemies are unfair and some levels are even boring. The music, bosses and puzzle levels do not provide variety in a game where you have already seen everything after an hour. This is not the PSVR2 game you want to buy for the whole family.

They Came From the Sky 2 is a game that feels great in terms of atmosphere and presentation, but offers somewhat meager possibilities in terms of gameplay. In the beginning you have to get used to the controls and the walking and shooting, but you will soon see that there is little new under the sun. The linear design could have felt a bit more varied by, for example, building in levels or progression systems. The unlockable improvements should also try to offer the challenge. In my opinion, that is a bit too meager, which makes the game repetitive a bit too quickly. For the price of 10 Euros you can certainly enjoy yourself for the first few hours, but the game will not have much more to offer you.

Besiege for the Nintendo Switch is a port of the perfected PC version from four years ago. The chaos, fun and crazy challenges are just as fun on the Nintendo Switch as they are on the PC. The game works great in handheld mode with the touchscreen and is the perfect way to play the game on the go. It looks neat, runs smoothly and the controls are nice and intuitive. It is a shame that the many extras, expansions, multiplayer and community content are completely missing here. This would have made the port even better than the PC version.

The game contains few frustrations. The art style is delightfully French and the focus on exploring a world full of mysteries is a fresh approach. Caravan SandWitch quickly manages to put a smile on your face. It helps that there are no fights, you can't die and there is no time pressure. It is still strange to jump from enormous heights without suffering any consequences. The finish is high, the climbing and the gadgets including your camper work neatly and are well used in the world. It is therefore a shame that especially the camera, the glitches and the unnecessary crashing of your camper make the fun a little less. But I have every confidence that the makers will solve this. If you are looking for mystery, a holiday to the French countryside or simply want to try out a great new game from a new developer, then you are in the right place.

The game has high highlights in terms of atmosphere. However, that is surrendered in the middle of the game for boring walking around and solving too easy puzzles. That makes the game a bit difficult to recommend. Nevertheless, outside of the middle part I enjoyed Hollowbody a lot. It is a game that gives an interesting look back at how horror games used to be. Including that stiff combat that we have now exchanged for more action-oriented gameplay.
