Mafia: The Old Country marks a welcome return for the series, trading the excesses of modern open worlds for a tight, story-driven experience. Historical authenticity, strong characters, and a beautifully recreated Sicilian setting make it both engaging and cinematic. Unfortunately, a barebones, uninnovative gameplay, underwhelming knife duels, and simplistic AI hold it back. While Enzo Favara’s journey remains a significant chapter, it’s not quite enough to restore the series to its former glory.

Ready or Not is a bold and satisfying return to tactical shooters. With deep, realistic gameplay and solid level design, it delivers a tense and rewarding experience — especially in singleplayer. While the technical side shows its indie roots and the story is nearly absent, the core gameplay is strong enough to make it a standout in the genre.

Jamboree TV adds variety to an already feature-rich title, but it does so in a way that's not entirely satisfying. It doesn’t improve the original experience, which remains limited to backward compatibility, and it introduces an exclusive mode that feels completely disconnected and is limited to just 20 mini-games. Not bad, but we were hoping for a bit more.

Wild Hearts S is a title that definitely has its merits, offering a straightforward hunting experience suitable for new players, but it absolutely needs to drop the Katana Engine once and for all in order to make the leap it truly deserves.

Killing Floor 3 is a good game, flaws aside. In fact, in its best games, it still manages to deliver the same adrenaline, cooperation, and bloody thrills as it did in the past. But it's also a product that seems to be chasing modern trends—monetization, battle passes, seasonal content—to the detriment of the arcade purity that made the series so beloved. If you're playing with a group of friends and looking for a PvE experience filled with chaos and monsters, Killing Floor 3 has a lot to offer. But if you were expecting a sequel faithful to the spirit of the second installment, you might be disappointed by a whole series of systems and subsystems that, overall, weigh down the overall gaming experience.

Dear Me, I Was is a short interactive drama by Arc System Works that tells the story of a woman's life through emotional, hand-painted visuals and subtle point-and-click mechanics. Using rotoscoped animation and watercolor art, the game blends narrative and visual storytelling in a unique, deeply personal way. Though minimal in gameplay, every interaction carries emotional weight, making it a heartfelt reflection on memory, loss, and the beauty of everyday life. It’s not for those seeking action, but for players open to unconventional storytelling, it’s a powerful, unforgettable experience.

Now in its final form, Luto emerges as a compelling psychological horror. While clearly inspired by P.T., it carves out a distinct identity thanks to its deeply unsettling atmosphere. Rather than relying on cheap jumpscares, Luto builds tension through psychological discomfort, supported by a strong narrative, maze-like level design, and masterful spatial audio. Despite its simple gameplay, it delivers a haunting experience that proves psychological horror still has the power to surprise and resonate.

Shadow Labyrinth is a missed opportunity. The concept—reimagining Pac-Man as a dark metroidvania—is bold and intriguing, with promising ideas like mech transformations and classic mazes. But the execution falters: sluggish pacing and minimal character progression make it hard to stay engaged. The level design also takes too long to get interesting, a major flaw for any metroidvania. In the end, it’s an ambitious experiment with untapped potential that needed a stronger push to truly shine.

Monument Valley III returns in widescreen format, offering a top-tier artistic experience, despite an overall duration that may be too short to be fully rewarded. The absence of the promised DLC at launch is disappointing, as it is now expected to arrive in winter 2025 along with a substantial, yet unspecified, update. Despite this, we warmly recommend it.

Ultimately, this re-release proves to be disappointing and uninspired. Despite the undeniable value of its original story and mechanics, it's hard to recommend the console version—especially to those without a strong sense of nostalgia for the game. A missed opportunity that deserved far more care and attention.

No Sleep For Kaname Date brings back the winning formula of the previous two titles, combining entertaining puzzles with an engaging story.

Performance on both Nintendo Switch systems is commendable, delivering solid results regardless of which console you own.

Patapon 1+2 Replay isn't trying to reinvent the franchise born from Japan Studio’s creativity. Still, it's a great chance to relive these iconic rhythm-based adventures. Presented in their original form with minimal touch-ups and helpful accessibility options, they remain simple yet charming experiences. At a fair price, the timeless gameplay alone makes it worth revisiting—especially for newcomers or longtime fans, 18 years after the original debut.

The Alters is a bold and thought-provoking experience, blending sci-fi survival with deep psychological themes. Managing your clones while racing against time creates real tension, and the game’s artistic direction is both striking and atmospheric. Despite some repetitive structure, The Alters stands out for its narrative depth and meaningful choices. It may not be for everyone, but it certainly leaves a mark.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate is a good action game in the roguelike style, with a lovely aesthetic that's "respectful" of the comic book tradition, as well as overall solid and fun gameplay. The co-op mode adds several levels of fun and strategy to the game, which, however, suffers from the classic problems of (almost) all titles in the genre: irremediable and irreversible repetitiveness. That said, at a very affordable price, the game could prove to be an unexpectedly valuable time-killer, especially if you have a friend to play it with.
