007 First Light is very nice to play, very spectacular even if it tends to put us in a spectator seat. An original story-shaped adaptation where charismatic characters and ingredients, who license what it is, are respected. We are curious to see what the suite will offer for this version of 007.

Iconic scenes covered, ultra present humor (you only have to see how Harvey Dent becomes Double Face), staged almost cinematic and solid gameplay but which does not stand out from the Rocksteady production, LEGO Batman: The Legacy of the Black Knight will bring a lot of pleasure even if the sharp collectivity side and the immensity of the tasks to be accomplished will be able to tire.

Lumentale: Memories of Trey is a very good surprise. Of course, production by Beehive Studios will not escape comparisons with the famous Pokémon license. There is capture and monster fighting. But he frees himself remarkably from his inspirations to offer a much more demanding experience, whether in confrontations (there is an “Easy Mode” if not) or in exploration that is teeming with good ideas. What a pleasure to discover a video game with body and heart.

Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is a captivating game. If the game mechanics of our little dinosaur are the same (eggs, tongue...), the experience is unique and completely different from the usual proposal. No more question of crossing the levels in a classical way, it will be necessary to think about interacting all the creatures of this Mysterius (the book) with its environment to discover all the secrets. Certainly, we are far from a nervous platform game, but we are clearly placed in an excellent family game, focused children (with the help of a “grand-e”) whose main defect remains that it is only played solo.

Wardrum offers an original and interesting experience but not without flaws. The readability is perfectible, the music is rather unhelpful on the rhythm side and the overall gameplay is quite classic. On the other hand the sensations are good, the DA nice, the strategic palette complete and the rhythmic side quite well seen and innovative in this genre. The sensations are good and the addition of mechanics of Die & Retry make it a complete and interesting game for fans of the genre.

Adorable Adventures offers moments of relaxation and the experience is very pleasant to live. We quickly get attached to Boris and his family, animals oh so cute. Of course, if you are looking for an action-packed game and are not a fan of calm experiences that push curiosity about the world around us, finally that of the marcassins: go your way! Otherwise, do not deprive yourself or your children of those moments of tranquility where we sniff all the flora, where we interact with the living beings around, and where we complete the few challenges that await us, while being tendered by so much cuteness.

DIABLO IV Lord of Hatred is a success in every way. Yes, there are some slowdowns and the adventure may seem short to some (between 7 and 8 hours ), but we finally have a game that gives us both to want to follow his adventure and that makes us want to continue in the endgame. A density reinforced by both classes and mechanics to manage your itemization and dungeons, events. But if you are team Diablo 3 and its culture of the moment of bright colors...

Pragmata is a complete game that we want to complete: useful collectibles, side by side many without being stifling and gameplay that has been able to stage its originality despite a nervousness sometimes absent. Yes the game is linear, yes the narration is unsurprising, but the immersion is incredible and the characters endearing as rarely for the video game media. A breath of emotions that punctuates a revival of gameplay.

Cthulhu The Cosmic Abyss was a great promise, with an interesting trailer for any Cthulhu fan. A narration taking us to R’Lyeh, as your grandpa took you on a walk when you were a kid (and if you didn’t, you understand the metaphor). At least before Papi decides to start the ride back on the road. There is still a puzzle game with blocking bugs at this point. Too bad!

It's a good DLC, especially for its price (€9.99), but its difficulty spike might cause some players to drop their controllers. For those still hungry for a challenge, it's worth going for, even if the lack of side challenges might surprise some and the game strays even further from the original material.

Soulmask: Shifting Sands releases its Egyptian DLC alongside its exit from early access. Generous in content, it offers a complete experience: exploration, crafting, building, combat, and NPC management. It holds great potential for fans of the genre, especially since the DLC provides a change of scenery compared to the South American jungle.

Pokémon Champions is more than mixed. Of course, as a fan of the Pokémon universe, it’s nice to be able to get into Pokémon fights competitively, as was the case with Pokémon TCG Pocket on mobile. The studio has made the title accessible through its tutorial and a Motisma that indicates the strengths and weaknesses to each ability you launch. Similarly, we will not spit on the immersion in Arena mode and the 1001 strategies that it is able to implement according to the Pokémon that will make up your team. But a free game, you have to finance it and the Pokémon Company (and Nintendo) has used the strong way by offering premium content in chaos, by conditioning the composition of your team to obtain tickets on a daily basis. In short, a game that wants to enter the competitive scene in the greatest way, leaving aside a part of the audience of which I will be a part.

Humour, endearing protagonist, aesthetically beautiful, animated levels and variety in the gameplay, Darwin’s Paradox will have only a few more or less blocking flaws according to your taste: one or two peaks of absurd difficulty in comparison to the rest of the game and boss fights that we would have liked to have and who, given the general tone, could have been beautiful experiences

Damon and Baby is a good little game quite nervous to the multitude of different enemies that you should not take as a Die & Retry. Here to die is to return to the title screen (which is a little tedious) and start again at its last backup. The characters are endearing, and the gameplay nice even if it could have been a little more fluid and nervous. Still the problems of cameras or hitboxes that, however, can not spoil a nice journey.

Apopia Sugar Coated Tale is a very friendly game with strong themes (depression, feeling of abandonment, loss of loved ones, and on a more explicit level, dictatorship). All worn by very friendly characters and a gameplay made of mini-games that change from table to board. A nice adventure to recommend.

Peregrino may arouse the indulgence of fans of the genre but not ours. Too bad the artistic direction was nice, to see if the patches rebalance a little bit.

Resident Evil Requiem gathers all the good ingredients of its predecessors to stick a few chills, in a horror atmosphere mastered from the first moments of the game. Although the title does not revolutionize anything in its mechanics and mechanics of play, it succeeds brilliantly in offering us a captivating experience from start to finish.

Kritter is a little success, a game that makes you want to return thanks to its pervasive humor throughout the adventure, whether in the dialogue, the bosses, or the narration. The challenges are very diverse from act to act, but there are still a few annoying bugs in the version tested, and a frustration that other games of this genre don't necessarily have when you get a game over that can be frustrating.

World of Warcraft: Midnight continues its trajectory. The hardcore gameplay elements remain the endgame content and the highest difficulty modes. Otherwise, it's a pleasant and peaceful stroll where you won't encounter many people, which is quite unusual for an MMORPG. It feels like playing the same game for 20 years, entering a cycle with a very established meaning: you grind to play, and then what ?

Pokémon Pokopia has managed to master the life simulation genre, delivering a complete and incredibly captivating gaming experience. Despite a somewhat lengthy start where the player is held a little too hand-holding, the game truly shines once you have complete freedom to dictate your play session. Between building, completing quests, exploring, and customizing, Pokopia proves engaging and, as your adventures unfold, utterly enchanting. And if Game Freak and Koei Tecmo decide to expand the game's content in the coming months, we'll have not only one of the games of the year, but one of the games to come. A new benchmark in the life simulation genre, it's a breath of fresh air for a franchise that sometimes struggles to reinvent itself.
