8.5 / 10.0 - Time Flies
Jul 31, 2025

Time Flies is a short and simple game with simple graphics, but that's not a flaw. It has excellent puzzles, a great sense of humor, and deep themes that make it a great experience.

Aside from showing off its fighters' special techniques in a fantastic way, this arena fighter doesn't do much to incorporate anything new into the genre other than integrating the later arcs of the anime's first season and its film. A greater number of playable characters will please fans of the series, but it's not necessarily what stands out amidst repetitive exploratory scenarios with little to offer.

8.5 / 10.0 - Wheel World
Jul 30, 2025

We absolutely loved the world of Wheel World. The races offer a good challenge, the customization can completely change the way you play, and exploring the environments in search of parts and secrets is a pleasure. This is one of those games I'll return to again and again simply to enjoy exploring its environments and listening to its wonderful music, and the minor technical flaws don't detract from my experience at all.

This game simply disappoints. Its story mode is shallow and the single-player modes lack depth. The combat system is—despite its simplicity—promising, but it suffers from a serious imbalance between characters and mechanics like the Rush Combo, which easily allows for automatic combos, kills the player's motivation to experiment with more complex mechanics.

9.2 / 10.0 - Donkey Kong Bananza
Jul 28, 2025

Donkey Kong Bananza is one of those surprises that only Nintendo can pull off. It's irreverent, original, and brutally fun. Despite some technical issues and a couple of questionable minor decisions, this is a game that feels fresh, necessary, and with its own identity. It's an adventure that not only reinvents Donkey Kong, but also makes him the perfect protagonist for a new generation. A game that, without recurring to nostalgia, smashes its way onto the list of must-haves for Switch 2.

6.8 / 10.0 - Heartworm
Jul 28, 2025

I'm a veteran of the survival horror genre but I never truly felt comfortable with any of the control options it offers and its narrative never felt satisfying. But for every flaw it has, there's one thing it truly excels at: the setting is exquisite, it perfectly handles the retro visual style, and it has excellent puzzles and great level design. Definitely worth a try for genre fans who are always looking for more classic-flavored experiences.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 is kind of "more of the same". It retains the gameplay and progression system with only minimal changes. While this offers a great experience, it doesn't fully maintain or preserve the original game. Despite this, the game continues to maintain the quality of the first collection and the maps from the original titles, along with new tracks created for this title. However, the changed gameplay of the fourth installment makes us wonder if we will see a final collection of this franchise or perhaps the next step will be to see an evolution in the Tony Hawk games.

7.5 / 10.0 - Patapon 1+2 Replay
Jul 18, 2025

These remastered versions of Patapon are more than an exersice in nostalgia. They're a glimpse into a different era when genres now considered "casual" demanded a lot of dedication from their players. Some of their elements—like the need to grind—may seem dated, but that's the kind of games they are. Even if they're frustrating, their charisma and devilishly catchy rhythms keep us glued to the screen. It's a shame they didn't include Patapon 3.

6.3 / 10.0 - Tamagotchi Plaza
Jul 10, 2025

This Switch version is nothing special. Aside from adding an explorable city that only grants access to each mini-game location, it lacks content beyond repeating the same task over and over again in short, unexciting games.

7.5 / 10.0 - Rematch
Jul 3, 2025

Rematch is a fresh take on the overplayed EA and Konami formula for soccer. However, its narrow business model and limited single-player content overshadow the well-executed ideas.

9.2 / 10.0 - Mario Kart World
Jun 26, 2025

The Mario Kart formula has evolved. While the game still seems to have a lot to show, the truth is that Nintendo is going for something different. It's no longer just about racing and destroying your opponent; it's about exploring. Not all players may immediately fall in love with its open world or its new, unwritten rules, but there's something very special about navigating the streets of the Mushroom Kingdom and racing on its avenues.

This is a solid remaster worth a try for both fans of the series and those who never experienced the original. Its brilliant combat system, multiple job customization options, and a simple but well-executed story guarantee a memorable adventure for those who enjoy trying it or replaying it. More than a worthy return to the game, it's an opportunity for those who haven't tried it to get a taste of it and fall in love with all its virtues. However, a Latin American localization was missing, as the game is currently translated into Spanish.

7 / 10.0 - Quantum Witch
Jun 24, 2025

Quantum Witch tells a proudly queer and humorous story about complex themes such as religion, manipulation, divinity, and freedom. It could have offered more in terms of gameplay, but the multiple narrative paths and its adorable aesthetic left me more than satisfied.

Where the first Death Stranding was original and daring, Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is repetitive and boring. It's a sequel too scared to stray from its predecessor. The new tools and scenarios are nothing more than window dressing for a repetitive experience, accompanied by a bland story filled with ideas that Hideo Kojima had used much better in other games. Its technical quality is impressive and it features great performances, but only those who finished the previous game and were left wanting more of the same will be able to fully appreciate it.

While the story of Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army may feel far removed from the depth of Shin Megami Tensei's complex plots, or its characters lack the charisma and development of Persona's, its strange twists and pace—chaotic but memorable—make Raidou Kuzunoha XIV's adventure worth a chance.

6 / 10.0 - FBC: Firebreak
Jun 17, 2025

While we greatly appreciate that it doesn't fall into the microtransaction and monetization trap of other games-as-a-service, FBC Firebreak doesn't offer anything new or interesting. It doesn't make good use of Control's lore or more bizarre elements, and while it can occasionally offer fun and exciting moments, it's nothing special.

6.5 / 10.0 - Tron: Catalyst
Jun 17, 2025

Bithell Games was overly ambitious with its time-loops idea, resulting in several poorly implemented mechanics. The combat is mediocre and the exploration somewhat repetitive, but Tron: Catalyst has a very good story with relevant themes, intriguing lore, and a great setting that may make it worthwhile for fans of the series.

This is a game that focuses on adaptation and teamwork in short but action-packed matches. Thanks to the vast experience of Hidetaka Miyazaki's studio, it draws on different playstyles to achieve a synergy that gives the title—despite belonging to the Elden Ring universe—a lot of personality.

7.8 / 10.0 - F1 25
May 28, 2025

By focusing on next-gen consoles and PCs, this game is able to show clear graphical optimization and a more polished driving simulation. Codemasters has made adjustments to handling, understeer, and the ERS system this year. However, not all innovations are successful. The Breaking Point 3 mode, despite the visual improvements, fails to engage the player because our actions have little real impact on the narrative. Furthermore, the high price is not justified by the annual upgrades and remains in a point that makes us believe this franchise doesn't need an annual release.

After 32 years, many find it very difficult to innovate. However, id Software has managed to introduce new mechanics and design improvements to its old formula, opting for a first-person action-adventure approach. The studio has opted to return to its roots, abandoning multiplayer mode.
