With Noreya: The Gold Project, Dreamirl proposes a creative twist to the metroidvania genre, with an interesting adventure that stands out for its careful technical aspect. A rather pleasant title that raises some very interesting ideas that allow us to define the attributes of the protagonist and the exploration of the map, something that is not often seen.

The Final Shape marks the end point for Destiny 2, the conclusion of a saga that Bungie has been building for 10 years, and in which it's all or nothing. Bungie proved that it had a couple of aces up its sleeve, with the ability to surprise with an expansion that rose to the occasion. The Final Shape closes with a decade of story, characters and moments.

With Rocket Knight Adventures: Re-sparked! Konami brings back from oblivion one of the best 16-bit characters in a compilation that shines for its quality and respect for the original work. A compilation that does a great job of preservation and is the perfect excuse to return to play these three action platformers that, despite having 3 decades on their shoulders, continue to give a lecture among all the exponents of the genre.

With Morbid: The Lords Of Ire, Still Running invites us to discover a reimagining of his previous work, with a soulslike that leaves aside the pixel art graphics to give way to 3D environments. However, the technical section does not quite accompany the transition, causing the immersion to be notably diluted. As a result, Still Running's new work complies, but is a step below its predecessor.

Ghost of Tsushima arrives on PC with a technically impeccable port, offering a new audience the chance to enjoy a title that stands out, but has plenty of potential for much more. an experience that, on the one hand, holds back and does not allow itself to develop its full potential. A title held back by the need to comply with the conventions of the medium, which fails to fully spread its wings to end up crowning itself as something unique, remaining fluttering on the ground of the familiar.

Zet Zillions, the new work of OTA IMON, invites us to enjoy a very quirky and charismatic space odyssey, set in the same universe of Wolfstride. A very charismatic game, whose visual section is striking and extremely 'cool', recommended for any fan of roguelike with cards and, why not, for anyone looking for a proposal with which to enter the genre.

Fans of Bandai Namco's official mascot will surely be more than happy to see him back. The rest of the audience, however, will probably quickly run out of reasons to keep playing after a handful of hours.

More than a game, Indika is a narrative experience that not only approaches religion from a philosophical perspective, but also poses a satirical critique of the videogame industry itself. A title that invites us to immerse ourselves in a unique, strange and emotionally impacting journey.

Dead Island 2 is back in the spotlight thanks to SoLA, the second DLC that expands the original experience by inviting us to take the stage of a massive zombie festival. the experience ends up feeling somewhat bittersweet. On the one hand, it maintains the level of excellence with which Dead Island 2 surprised us at the time. On the other hand, it is disappointing that this new DLC denies us again the possibility of being able to give closure to the main story. Despite this, it is a chapter that is fun thanks to allowing us to break zombie heads and make our way through hordes of undead.

Bombshell Harrison is back in Phantom Fury, a new, more ambitious, bigger and more destructive installment loaded with details that show a lot of effort, but a loose consistency and rough edges that evidence a rushed development. As a result, Bombshell's new adventure leaves mixed feelings. Still, it is playable, although perhaps it would be good to wait for a discount to give it a chance.

Sand Land arrives in the world of video games with an adaptation that does justice to Akira Toriyama's work, at least in terms of heart and soul. It may not be to the taste of those who were expecting a very deep experience in terms of mechanics, but it will satisfy the fans of the original work and its excellent author.

Children of the Sun is a captivating videogame that with a mixture of somewhat disparate genres manages to make its way into the independent scene with a fresh and very original proposal. Devolver Digital once again proves that its aim is excessively remarkable to come up with titles that give a lot to talk about. Puzzles and shooting couldn't be better combined.
