For a title developed by just one person, Magenta Horizon is a surprisingly polished and solid work. It combines Metroidvania elements with the speed and combo-heavy gameplay characteristic of Hack 'n' Slash, resulting in a dynamic and engaging experience. The level design is very well-structured, accompanied by a standout soundtrack. Unfortunately, the game's story is one of its weaker points, serving merely as a backdrop for the relentless action-packed combat. Even so, Magenta Horizon is an excellent choice for fans of the genre.

Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered has many flaws, but its strengths outweigh the negatives. For those who sought to enjoy a good puzzle and platforming game, the original titles were already quite appealing, and now, with this remaster, they are more than welcome to attract a new audience and perhaps spark interest in a new entry, as the Legacy of Kain saga still remains open-ended.

DRAGON BALL Sparkling! ZERO is a highly recommended game. Bandai Namco managed to make a worthy continuation of the Budokai Tenkaichi legacy. Featuring 182 characters and a robust campaign, it's the game fans have been asking for so many years.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle pleasantly surprised me. The choice of a first-person camera, which initially made me skeptical, turned out to be a brilliant decision, delivering a unique and memorable experience. The story is captivating, the graphics are stunning, and the gameplay is enjoyable. Despite some technical issues and the simplicity of the stealth mechanics, the experience is solid and well worth playing. A game worthy of the big screen, it stands out as one of the highlights of 2024 and marks a strong step in the right direction for Xbox.

LEGO Horizon Adventures may have some flaws when compared to other titles in the LEGO franchise, but it fulfills its main purpose well: to entertain. The game is a great gateway for casual players and children to explore the Horizon universe.

Mario & Luigi: Brothership offers a charming adventure that combines classic elements of the series with new mechanics that enrich the gameplay. In the end it is "just okay", which is not bad, but the series certainly deserved much more.

In the end, Rugrats: Adventures in Gameland is just another platform game in a sea of better titles. It only served as a platform (no pun intended) for companies like Limited Run to ride the hype and release their very expensive collector's editions. If you're looking for a fun game to pass the time, stay away from it.

Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered is the definitive version of the PlayStation classic, though the need for it to exist is debatable. For new players or those looking to revisit Aloy's world with the latest improvements, this version is certainly worth a play.

The Plucky Squire is a game that is more than cute and recommended for all ages. The use of creativity and nostalgia will certainly win you over. The fact that the game is translated and dubbed into Brazilian Portuguese is already a reason to recommend it. It's worth checking out!

Metaphor: ReFantazio has lived up to the hype and is the "best non-Persona Persona" we have right now. Persona fans are eating good this year.

Gori: Cuddly Carnage is one of the most fun and laid-back titles I've played this year. Experiences like this put a smile on my face and remind me of the times when video games were just about having fun. The fact that the game is a hack 'n' slash also made it win my heart, since it's a genre that I love but is in a steady decline lately. Add that to the charismatic group of characters and a surprising story, and we have a solid game.

Astro Bot is a celebration of PlayStation history. With its ingenious level design, innovative use of DualSense functionality, and an abundance of charm and nostalgia, the game offers an experience that is both familiar and refreshing. Whether you’re a longtime PlayStation fan or new to gaming, Astro Bot is an unmissable adventure that showcases the best that PS5 has to offer. A strong contender for GOTY 2024.

Despite its fun factor, Concord makes mistakes in the basics of the hero shooter genre and is far from being a memorable game. Add to that Sony's poor strategy of charging for the game and you have the reason why it didn't do so well commercially. We'll wait and see what the future holds for Concord.

Black Myth: Wukong is an ambitious addition to the action RPG genre, offering a visually stunning interpretation of Chinese mythology (and for monkey fans, too). While it presents technical and design challenges that may affect the player experience, its intense combat, rich setting, and faithfulness to the literary source material provide an engaging journey for those willing to take on its challenges. For players who enjoy deep storytelling and challenging combat, Black Myth: Wukong offers a unique experience worth exploring.

Kunitsu-Gami was a pleasant surprise. The combination of tower defense and action is innovative and fun. The art is certainly the highlight and will stay with you long after you finish the game. Capcom got it right, and I hope this is just the beginning of a new experimental era for the company.

Gestalt: Steam & Cinder could be just another metroidvania, but it goes much further than that. It manages to maintain solid gameplay tied to an intriguing story. Highly recommended.

It's a fast-paced, action-packed game, but unfortunately it suffers from repetitiveness. Despite this, it's still a highly recommended game!
