A solid recommendation for anyone seeking an accessible yet characterful roguelike.

Game Builder Tycoon is a simple yet engaging management sim that lets you live the dream of running your own game studio. While its visuals and audio are basic and the gameplay can feel repetitive over time, it still offers a fun and accessible experience, especially for fans of simulation games.

Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Battle Destiny Remastered is a solid experience for mecha fans, especially those who love the SEED saga. Its dynamic combat, faithful presentation, and upgraded visuals make it a worthwhile title for dedicated fans. However, repetitive missions, simple environments, and the lack of online multiplayer limit its broader appeal. If you're a Gundam SEED enthusiast, it's a great way to relive or reshape the conflict. For newcomers, though, it might not be the best entry point — even if, alongside SD Gundam Battle Alliance, it stands as one of the better Gundam games on Switch.

American Arcadia is a narrative gem that confirms Out of the Blue's talent for crafting engaging and emotionally compelling stories, supported by a striking visual style and a gameplay component that, while relatively simple, proves to be effective and well-integrated in service of the narrative.

Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo" shines as an outstanding metroidvania, reimagined through the unique concept of "yoyovania." The developers masterfully craft a deep and engaging gameplay experience around Pippit's yoyo, paired with smart progression and excellent level design. Despite a limited number of boss battles and occasional platforming challenges, the game stands out for its witty yet profound narrative, nostalgic 16-bit aesthetic, and a superb soundtrack enriched by Yoko Shimomura's touch. With solid localization and accessibility features, it’s a must-play indie adventure, offering around 20 hours of pure gaming joy.

Amerzone: The Explorer’s Legacy is a faithful and visually impressive remake that revives a forgotten gem from Benoît Sokal’s early work. While its rigid point-and-click mechanics may feel outdated, the game still offers a short yet atmospheric journey through a fascinating, decaying world. A solid choice for fans of classic adventure games and those curious about Sokal’s creative origins.

Elden Ring: Nightreign is not a classic role-playing game but, rather, a competitive action game with moderate role-playing colors. It is worth underlining this because, of course, the two nomenclatures are destined to run close together, but on two parallel lines. Although not without flaws, FromSoftware's work is still an immersive and challenging experience, which reaches its peak in the specific three-player mode. There are several limitations, both conceptual and content-related, which make the game probably not suitable for everyone (including Elden Ring fans) or difficult to metabolize. However, the game has a certain charm and is one of the most intriguing cooperative experiences of recent years, still offered at a fair price.

Despite its short duration, Out of Sight delivers a unique and captivating gaming experience, immersing players in a dark fairy tale rich in atmosphere. The clever camera mechanics, switching perspectives between Sophie and her teddy bear, Teddy, add depth to gameplay and puzzle-solving. While occasional trial-and-error moments may slightly affect progression, its strong narrative, well-paced rhythm, and outstanding sound design create an excellent experience. With its minimalist yet evocative aesthetic, Out of Sight offers a fresh and personal take on the horror genre.

Keita Takahashi stays true to himself, and with To a T, he once again defies gaming and commercial conventions. He creates a highly personal experience that, despite its minimal gameplay, delivers a powerful message of tolerance and inclusion. While it lacks in pure gameplay depth, its artistic and narrative strength make it compelling. Ultimately, it's an auteur-driven game that simply needs the right audience to fully shine—just as expected from Takahashi, whom we appreciate for exactly this reason.

Despite its limitations, 9th Dawn Remake is a nostalgic and ambitious adventure that simply invites players to explore and fight without interruption. 9th Dawn Remake stands out for its depth and versatility, offering a truly vast overall package of content at a negligible price and further enhanced by local and online cooperative play. That said, Valorware's production is probably not suitable for those looking for a role-playing production that is full-bodied especially on a narrative level or jaw-dropping on a more purely aesthetic level.

RoadCraft carves out its niche with well-executed simulation mechanics, particularly in physics and environmental interactions, making it the closest thing to childhood construction games. It's perfect for players seeking a meditative and precise experience, rewarding methodical reconstruction and embracing a slow, deliberate progression. However, some interactions feel clunky, and the transport AI could be smoother. Despite these flaws, multiplayer greatly enhances the experience, making RoadCraft an excellent choice for fans of Saber’s other simulation games.

Onimusha 2: Samurai’s Destiny is far from a groundbreaking remaster, offering a rather predictable return of the 2002 classic. Despite some visual limitations, Jubei's adventure remains enjoyable, with gameplay elements that anticipated modern trends. The graphical update is modest, mainly improving resolution and models. Aside from minor tweaks, it’s the same game—flaws and all. Whether to revisit it now or wait for its grand comeback next year is up to you.

I was wrong about Ratshaker and unfairly dismissed it at first, but by the end of this short journey, I was glad to reconsider. Sunscorched Studios deserves the credit for surprising me with its bold approach. Far from being a typical trophy-chaser, this horror experience excels at shocking and unsettling with remarkable precision, creating a unique visual-ludic short circuit. Though highly condensed and minimally interactive, it costs no more than a simple café breakfast. Give it a try—your love for rats (and your sugar-caffeine cravings) will thank you!

DOOM: The Dark Ages closes the trilogy with a prequel that shakes up the formula we thought was unbreakable. Despite some flaws, id Software delivers a solid experience. The heavier, slower combat pairs well with revamped parrying and melee mechanics, offering a fresh but still engaging feel. Less convincing are the airborne sections and the overall level design, which lacks past inspiration. While fun and long-lasting, it’s the weakest link in the new era of this FPS legend—but still a must-have for anyone with an insatiable urge to rip demons apart like there’s no tomorrow.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Legends of the Zone Trilogy – Enhanced Edition brings three iconic PC classics to consoles with a solid and respectful remaster. The atmosphere remains unmatched, and the survival mechanics are still compelling. While some aspects—like gunplay and audio—feel dated, the visual upgrade and full controller support make this a great entry point for newcomers and a worthy revisit for veterans.

Once Pirates VR: Jolly Roger is completed, it feels like a small step back in time due to its highly traditional approach. If I still had the first Sony VR headset in mind, I might have been more impressed by Split Light Studio’s work, despite its very short duration. There are no unforgivable flaws—the mechanics are functional, though undeniably old-school. In the end, it’s an enjoyable yet predictable pirate-themed VR adventure, well-crafted but brief and highly foreseeable.

Deliver At All Costs stands out for its charming 1950s style and absurd humor, turning a simple delivery job into a wild and unexpected adventure. The story is fun and surprising, but the repetitive structure and underwhelming open world hold it back from reaching its full potential.

Will MercurySteam now be recognized as the studio behind Blades of Fire? Based on my experience, I certainly hope so. Their new IP offers a challenging and engaging adventure with a distinct identity and well-crafted gameplay elements, particularly its combat system and arsenal management. Its main flaw lies in an overly extended duration, leading to some redundant and less inspired sections that may amplify a sense of disorientation due to certain design choices. Nonetheless, it remains a game with a strong personality, making bold and divisive gameplay decisions that will reward those willing to embrace its nature.

Revenge of the Savage Planet is exactly what a sequel should be: bigger, more detailed and fun. With numerous planets to explore and excellent support for co-op, the new chapter in the saga sublimates the fun premise of the first chapter in an exponential way. Although there are flaws, such as a combat system that is a bit too basic and a fluidity still at 30 frames per second on Xbox, the heart of the game lies in exploration, humor and discovery. The game is one of the best co-op experiences available on the market today.
