Super Mario Party Jamboree is packed with content, but still doesn't seem to offer much new. If the concept is familiar from previous years, then everything feels quite familiar from the beginning. The gameplay is fun, even hilarious at times, but the title needs the right people around it to reach its full potential - and even then, certain game modes suffer from repetition and sameness.

A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead tells an original story set in the Quite Place universe, which offers about eight hours of survival horror. The game has its moments, but too often it stumbles over its own concept. Sneaking quietly through each level just isn't fun, and in many places the super-accurate monsters will strike without warning.

The horror title, which only lasts for a couple of hours, offers a few fun scares to the younger audience and especially to the Five Nights at Freddy's fan base, but I wasn't very excited about the survival elements. Running between places and avoiding the same Monster was more frustrating than entertaining.

Unknown 9: Awakening is a budget title with grand ambition. It doesn't always meet those lofty goals, but it's still a lovely throwback to the days when these mid-budget titles were a much more common occurrence. Adjust your expectations accordingly, and it's an old-school blast to play through on a weekend.

EA Sports FC 25 is the best football game of the year, but that’s not saying much: Konamis eFootball is still so much worse than FC 25, that it really doesn’t have any competition.

Like a mix between Hayao Miyazaki and great French comic books, Neva is a breathtaking and heartbreaking adventure that stays with you long after it ends.

Disney's Epic Mickey: Rebrushed is a fine remaster that scratches that nostalgic itch, even if it doesn't do anything new with the material. Sometimes, it's just fun to revisit something familiar, and that's enough.

The graphical bugs with disappearing and suddenly reappearing AI cars are constant occurrence in the world of Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown. The developer has promised to listen to players and continue the game's development based on feedback. To be honest, there needs to be a lot of changes if the game wants to avoid being quickly forgotten amidst much better alternatives.

Satisfactory is a marvel that feeds the imagination and cultivates creativity. It's a digital LEGO set for adults that will never run out of material. All you can think of is to make one more tweak, and then another, and another.

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom gives Princess Zelda her long-overdue starring role in a clever, puzzle-driven adventure that reimagines combat through creativity rather than brute force. Despite occasional performance hiccups, it’s a charming and refreshing take on the franchise that proves Zelda can shine just as brightly as Link.

Ara: History Untold aims to challenge Civilization and other 4X strategy giants by emphasizing resource management, but its overwhelming micromanagement slows the experience. While the game boasts impressive visuals and complex production chains, its tedious optimization, lackluster diplomacy, and simplistic combat may frustrate players looking for a more balanced grand strategy experience.

Visions of Mana might be strictly for the fans, but it has elements that should endear it to general audiences as well. It's not the first game I'd recommend for fans of the genre, but it has enough magic to impress more than once during its epic quest.

Frostpunk 2 expands the original survival city-builder to a larger scale by introducing a deeper political system and sector-based city expansion. The game retains its intense resource management and chilling atmosphere, but now decision-making focuses more on broader strategic choices rather than micromanagement.

Enotria comes with superb art direction and an imaginative world to explore, but it's riddled with game-breaking bugs and frustrating design choices. It's a start, but not yet something you should spend hard-earned free time on. Not yet, at least.

This remaster of Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse is just as great and crazy as two last seasons. Neat puzzles, dry and well written humour and quirky characters: We can only hope that these guys come back someday.

Emio – The Smiling Man: Famicom Detective Club is a chilling and atmospheric visual novel that brings the long-dormant detective series back with a haunting mystery and mature themes. While its gameplay is limited and occasionally frustrating, (most of) the story, voice acting, and eerie tone make it a compelling experience for fans of dark narrative adventures.

You can feel the 20 years of progress that gaming has made in every fiber of Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, but most of the time, you won't care one bit. As far as pure zombie-killing-mayhem is concerned, Capcom's delirious gorefest is still a blast.
