The Croc remaster is the definitive version of a classic that was already very competent! The new version makes what was already a simple but charming game even better, with reworked visuals and a control scheme remade for the current generation.

World-building is a really sensitive thing, and if not handled with due care it can ruin an entire story. From the moment any story sets out to present a minimally complex world that is much larger than the small space in which the entire narrative takes place, the writing must keep up with the greatness of that world, otherwise the entire pace of the story is compromised and the ending becomes frustrating because it isn't rewarding enough. For that reason, Battlefield Waltz ends up falling into the cliché of a generic medieval fantasy story, which I can only recommend to those who have a certain level of patience to follow these characters who save the game in a dull and uninspired setting.

I had a lot of fun with KinikkuNeko: Super Muscle Cat; with some incredible japanese voicework and humor, the game got a few laughs out of me. It's a excelent game for its price point, but isn't as action heavy as other games of the same genre you'll find on the Nintendo Switch.

Kemono Heroes is a very short but satisfying experience. With a creative visual design, a simple but effective progression system and a second run that reinvents the stages, the game manages to deliver a fun and challenging journey.

I don't feel very good about saying this, but Shadow of the Orient fails in fundamental aspects of its execution that make it an experience that leaves a lot to be desired, unfortunately.

Sorry We’re Closed is a survival horror that manages to show mastery in what it proposes and brings an impactful and bold context of emotional depth. The result is a fantastic game in its discussion and how it represents horror with new layers.

Glover is a very unique experience: it's a really brilliant platforming idea, which resulted in a game that, while not a masterpiece, is super fun and different from anything else the genre has to offer. But unfortunately the remastering work done for the Nintendo Switch leaves a lot to be desired and it's a little difficult to recommend this version over the N64 version.

Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories & the Envisioned Land invites us to explore an intriguing world with a dark tone and a denser narrative than any other Atelier has seen before. It is a very competent RPG when it comes to presenting gameplay mechanics that tend to attract a large audience. On the other hand, veterans may be disappointed to see that elements that give uniqueness to the series are neglected.

Served like a dessert too small to be enjoyed, NEEDY STREAMER OVERLOAD: Typing of The Net has the size of a demo and the quality of a pointless spin-off.

The Hungry Lamb is a heavy game, a portrait of a desolate historical period, and without many restraints when it comes to portraying the cruel reality of the time. Naturally, this means that the game is not for everyone, after all, it requires a very strong heart to endure the harsh themes addressed by the story in general. However, the game is worth the mental effort, there is a beautiful message in the game that is conveyed through excellent writing, with a pleasant reading pace.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Early Days Collection is a really cool package that continues Konami's good work in distributing its classics to a new generation. The collection allows new fans to learn a little about the history of the franchise and see firsthand how influential the developer was in shaping one of the most famous card games in the world, making this the best way to enjoy these games.

After Genso Manège, I thought PQube had finally put in more effort, but we unfortunately got our first faux pas of 2025. If you intend to get Him, the Smile & bloom, it's more recommended to wait until the publisher's patch is available, as the game's story may be short but has great potential.

NEEDY STREAMER OVERLOAD is fascinating to talk about. It has a discourse that addresses the times we live in, of course, this can be said about many modern stories, but rarely in a way that brings the player closer to someone who suffers the consequences of what for them may be something superfluous. A story that takes advantage of the fact that it is an interactive medium to become something different. At other times, the player can simply put themselves in Ame's shoes and want her to interact with the digital world in a healthy way.

Despite some blunders in how the story is conveyed, Despera Drops is a solid adventure and a good visual novel for those looking for mysteries in a context of crime and being on the run in Europe. With a charismatic cast that basically becomes found family amidst their turbulent coexistence, this work is a good reading choice.

The controversial Tomb Raider trilogy remaster aims to introduce new fans to the dark era of Lara Croft's adventures while preserving her legacy. Despite the visual improvements and feature additions, the Nintendo Switch version lacks the polish it deserves, featuring a barrage of bugs and lengthy loading screens.

If you want to get away from the Final Fantasy and Pokémon standard, Everhood 2 is a good experience, very out of the box, with interesting mechanics and very smooth to play. I would definitely give it a chance.

If I could summarize my experience with the Switch version of WARRIORS: Abyss, I would say that it was a fun experience that I dedicated hours in bit-sized sessions. The musou and rogue-like genres mix perfectly and it surprises me that it took them (Omega Force) this long to implement an Hades-like experience to their games. However, the performances and loading issues, specially the latter, really affected my time with the game for the worse; it took my experience with it from "excelent" to "good, but with frustrating issues".

Ever 17 – The Out of Infinity is an alternate version for KID's classic mystery, which wasn't released [this way] in the West [yet], bringing significant changes in its structure that can be quite controverse. On one hand, the big mysteries and sci-fi elements are still a big attractive and worth checking out. On the other, it leaves a feeling that the release could have had more care in preserving the original story along with the most recent revision and in offering more quality of life for players.

Never 7 – The End of Infinity is a classic that kickstarted the Infinity series and, despite some caveats, it's worth checking the game out in its first official English release. Though it's a shame that the translation could have been better, the story as a whole manages to stay intriguing.

Momodora: Moonlit Farewell is very honest in what it sets out to do. It's a beautiful, fun game, very straight to the point and that pays homage to the other titles in the franchise. It doesn't introduce any innovations to the genre. And, to be honest, it doesn't even need to (and they never promised to). What we see in the game, we've already seen in other titles. But, it's all very well done.
