On paper, Voidwrought is a solid metroidvania with smooth, enjoyable movement, especially for fans of the genre. However, it ultimately delivers a standard experience without much to set it apart.

A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead successfully transports the terror of the famous film series into a video game experience. Despite some repetitiveness and technical issues, the game maintains an unsettling atmosphere and effectively utilizes sound design to engage players.

Mechwarrior V: Clans stands as a standalone title that enriches rather than replaces its predecessor, adding a complementary experience to the saga. This may be the best choice for mecha enthusiasts seeking a fairly deep simulator. It boasts impressive graphics, solid audio, an engaging and unpredictable narrative campaign, and a complex yet rewarding gameplay system.

Unfortunately, Awaken: Astral Blade is a rather mediocre title, lacking narrative punch and creative inspiration. It suffers from structural oversights in game design, alongside numerous minor issues that are hard to overlook, especially given the high standards set by the genre. That said, it’s not a total failure—its unique combo mechanics and smooth controls make for an exciting, spectacular combat system.

Super Mario Party Jamboree is a delightful surprise, reviving a series that, after a somewhat rocky journey on Nintendo Switch, finally shines once more.

Clock Tower undoubtedly deserves its place among the legends of video games, and we highly recommend that anyone even vaguely interested experience this old gem firsthand. While the port could have perhaps offered more after so many years since the initial release, when an artistic direction and gameplay concept are flawless, it's hard to improve without compromising the original. Rewind now provides the first official way to get lost in the corridors of the Barrows mansion.

Shadow of the Damned is a rough diamond, with its raw edges adding to its charm. While more could have been done to modernize the experience, this is still the best way to enjoy Garcia's wild adventure. Those who own the original have little reason to revisit this reissue, but for newcomers exploring these infernal streets, it's highly recommended.

Until Dawn (2024) struggles to honor the original game despite its graphical upgrades and new features. Technical issues detract from the experience, raising questions about the necessity of a remake for a PS4 native game priced at €70. While the original owners may not find it worthwhile, newcomers—especially PC players—might appreciate this chance to explore its strong narrative and horror atmosphere.

Kill Knight stands out as a tribute to late millennium games, offering intense and engaging gameplay enhanced by a distinctive visual style and a dark retro atmosphere. Although the narrative elements are less developed than the initial premises, the true substance lies in the frantic action and the constant pursuit of a new high score.

Grunn is a small yet charming adventure, perfect for unwinding after a stressful day, but don’t be fooled: the numerous dark secrets hidden within this town will captivate you, urging you to complete the game in a single sitting. The blend of classic 'gardener simulator' style with an atmosphere far more unsettling than it initially appears creates a unique experience that we highly recommend.

Reynatis is a title with great potential, but due to a limited budget, it fails to fully express itself. Nonetheless, the gameplay remains enjoyable and stands on its own, supporting an experience that is ultimately mediocre.

Metaphor: ReFantazio is a title that combines excellent ideas, managing to stand on its own due to the undeniable quality of its original elements. However, it suffers from optimization issues and outdated graphics, which hinder its ability to present these ideas effectively. While this may deter some players, for true RPG fans, Metaphor is still one of the greatest, most entertaining, and in-depth games ever created by Atlus.

Dead Rising Deluxe Remastered shows inevitable signs of aging and may struggle to win over modern players or fully recapture the impact it once had. However, despite its gameplay limitations, there’s no reason why anyone seeking an unconventional story—whether a series fan or not—should pass on this new edition. With numerous improvements, it stands as the definitive version of a classic.
