8.5 / 10.0 - Planet of Lana
Dec 30, 2025

"Planet of Lana" is a poignant indie game that delivers a poetic journey through simple storytelling, beautiful art, and moving music. While its Android port has some technical issues, the game stands out as a memorable experience that proves the power of emotional depth in indie titles.

Anno 117: Pax Romana is one of the best strategy titles of the year and certainly among the best games in the Anno series, offering a rich and marvelously detailed gameplay experience that can easily entertain you for hundreds of hours.

9 / 10.0 - Enshrouded
Dec 24, 2025

Enshrouded is a remarkable survival-crafting game that successfully blends ARPG elements with the survival genre to create a distinct, fantastic, and memorable experience. Although still in Early Access, its content is so vast that it can keep you entertained for dozens, even hundreds, of hours.

Static Dread: The Lighthouse is a Lovecraftian title with an intriguing premise that ultimately fails to turn its idea into a worthwhile experience due to overly simplistic gameplay systems and weak writing.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 delivers solid and satisfying multiplayer gameplay. However, its campaign is a major letdown, suffering from a convoluted, overly hallucinatory narrative and a disjointed Co-Op-focused structure. This significantly lowers the overall quality, making the story unremarkable even with familiar characters. Ultimately, Black Ops 7 had the potential to be a much better and more memorable title. Yet, if you're primarily looking for a game to enjoy its multiplayer or Zombies modes, it will likely keep you entertained.

7 / 10.0 - RENNSPORT
Dec 20, 2025

If you are looking for a racing simulator with a high level of realism in gameplay, Rennsport is suitable for you. However, you will have to deal with some of the game's visual issues. But if you have no experience in this genre, this game is not a good place to start with a simulator.

If you're looking for a title to switch off your mind for a short while and simply enjoy an engaging, atmospheric narrative on a lazy afternoon, then The Last Case of John Morley can truly be a fitting and memorable choice.

"SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide" is a visually impressive, modern remaster that features great humor and atmosphere, making it a worthwhile experience for fans, despite some gameplay flaws, such as a weak camera and simple combat.

8.5 / 10.0 - Total Chaos
Dec 16, 2025

"Total Chaos" is a psychological indie horror that trades jump scares for deep atmosphere, exploring themes of madness and isolation. Despite some technical flaws, it delivers a profoundly unsettling experience, even for non-horror fans.

Romancing SaGa Minstrel Song Remastered is a faithful remake of a deep, classic turn-based RPG. Its complex mechanics and high degree of freedom may overwhelm new players, but fans of traditional JRPGs will appreciate its rich narrative and strategic gameplay.

The return of Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition on the Nintendo Switch 2 provides an opportunity to revisit one of the most important reboots in video game history. Despite being over a decade old, this version still demonstrates why Lara Croft is regarded as one of the few truly timeless female characters. Overall, this edition is a mix of strengths and weaknesses. However, for fans looking to experience one of the industry's most significant reboots in portable form, it remains a worthwhile option—provided expectations are kept realistic.

If you love dinosaurs and their history, this game will be the best simulator available for you and will immerse you for hours. However, if you are a hardcore fan of management and simulation games who seek complex economic challenges and significant consequences, the simplicity and bugs of this Jurassic Park might disappoint you a bit.

If you have never experienced Atelier Ryza, the Atelier Ryza Secret Trilogy Deluxe Pack is the best opportunity to experience a valuable and memorable trilogy of the Atelier series. However, this package does not offer much new content for those who have already experienced these titles, making it hardly worth experiencing again.

Tales of Xillia Remastered is a title you should experience for its memorable characters and engaging dialogue. The combat system is entertaining enough, but the weak stage design turns exploration into a tedious process.

7.5 / 10.0 - Abra-Cooking-Dabra
Dec 8, 2025

Abra-Cooking-Dabra is a small, cozy, and focused game that wisely avoids competing with grander cooking or management titles. Its orderly gameplay, colorful design, and gentle soundtrack make it an ideal choice for players seeking a calm, mindful experience. While shortcomings like slow onboarding, limited replayability, and a lack of fresh challenges later on prevent it from becoming a lasting masterpiece, the game completely succeeds in its core mission: delivering a charming, stress-free fantasy cooking getaway.

Cronus: The New Dawn fails to realize its potential. Its promising story becomes a cliché-filled mess, and its gameplay feels basic despite high possibilities. Worth one playthrough, but lower your expectations if you hoped for the studio's usual quality.

Only give this game a chance if you're a fan of the Paws of Fury film. Otherwise, there are far better tower defense and hack-and-slash games available to play.

4 / 10.0 - Painkiller
Dec 5, 2025

A catastrophic failure. Compared to the original, this remake collapses under the weight of its own misguided changes, resulting in a punishing experience that seems beyond repair.

8.5 / 10.0 - Majogami
Nov 29, 2025

Majogari is a unique and thoughtful game with a deep philosophical story about memory and rebirth. It features surreal art and fast-paced action. While it has some unbalanced battles and requires completing all levels, it's an overall memorable and unique experience.
